JOURNAL OF IMAGING INFORMATICS IN MEDICINE 2024:10.1007/s10278-024-01123-9. [PMID: 38653910 DOI: 10.1007/s10278-024-01123-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
Labelling medical images is an arduous and costly task that necessitates clinical expertise and large numbers of qualified images. Insufficient samples can lead to underfitting during training and poor performance of supervised learning models. In this study, we aim to develop a SimCLR-based semi-supervised learning framework to classify colorectal neoplasia based on the NICE classification. First, the proposed framework was trained under self-supervised learning using a large unlabelled dataset; subsequently, it was fine-tuned on a limited labelled dataset based on the NICE classification. The model was evaluated on an independent dataset and compared with models based on supervised transfer learning and endoscopists using accuracy, Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC), and Cohen's kappa. Finally, Grad-CAM and t-SNE were applied to visualize the models' interpretations. A ResNet-backboned SimCLR model (accuracy of 0.908, MCC of 0.862, and Cohen's kappa of 0.896) outperformed supervised transfer learning-based models (means: 0.803, 0.698, and 0.742) and junior endoscopists (0.816, 0.724, and 0.863), while performing only slightly worse than senior endoscopists (0.916, 0.875, and 0.944). Moreover, t-SNE showed a better clustering of ternary samples through self-supervised learning in SimCLR than through supervised transfer learning. Compared with traditional supervised learning, semi-supervised learning enables deep learning models to achieve improved performance with limited labelled endoscopic images.

Development and validation of a multimodal model in predicting severe acute pancreatitis based on radiomics and deep learning. Int J Med Inform 2024; 184:105341. [PMID: 38290243 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijmedinf.2024.105341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aim to establish a multimodal model for predicting severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). METHODS In this multicentre retrospective study, patients diagnosed with acute pancreatitis at admission were enrolled from January 2017 to December 2021. Clinical information within 24 h and CT scans within 72 h of admission were collected. First, we trained Model α based on clinical features selected by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis. Second, radiomics features were extracted from 3D-CT scans and Model β was developed on the features after dimensionality reduction using principal component analysis. Third, Model γ was trained on 2D-CT images. Lastly, a multimodal model, namely PrismSAP, was constructed based on aforementioned features in the training set. The predictive accuracy of PrismSAP was verified in the validation and internal test sets and further validated in the external test set. Model performance was evaluated using area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, recall, precision and F1-score. RESULTS A total of 1,221 eligible patients were randomly split into a training set (n = 864), a validation set (n = 209) and an internal test set (n = 148). Data of 266 patients were for external testing. In the external test set, PrismSAP performed best with the highest AUC of 0.916 (0.873-0.960) among all models [Model α: 0.709 (0.618-0.800); Model β: 0.749 (0.675-0.824); Model γ: 0.687 (0.592-0.782); MCTSI: 0.778 (0.698-0.857); RANSON: 0.642 (0.559-0.725); BISAP: 0.751 (0.668-0.833); SABP: 0.710 (0.621-0.798)]. CONCLUSION The proposed multimodal model outperformed any single-modality models and traditional scoring systems.

High-Speed and Accurate Diagnosis of Gastrointestinal Disease: Learning on Endoscopy Images Using Lightweight Transformer with Local Feature Attention. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1416. [PMID: 38136007 PMCID: PMC10741161 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10121416] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
In response to the pressing need for robust disease diagnosis from gastrointestinal tract (GIT) endoscopic images, we proposed FLATer, a fast, lightweight, and highly accurate transformer-based model. FLATer consists of a residual block, a vision transformer module, and a spatial attention block, which concurrently focuses on local features and global attention. It can leverage the capabilities of both convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and vision transformers (ViT). We decomposed the classification of endoscopic images into two subtasks: a binary classification to discern between normal and pathological images and a further multi-class classification to categorize images into specific diseases, namely ulcerative colitis, polyps, and esophagitis. FLATer has exhibited exceptional prowess in these tasks, achieving 96.4% accuracy in binary classification and 99.7% accuracy in ternary classification, surpassing most existing models. Notably, FLATer could maintain impressive performance when trained from scratch, underscoring its robustness. In addition to the high precision, FLATer boasted remarkable efficiency, reaching a notable throughput of 16.4k images per second, which positions FLATer as a compelling candidate for rapid disease identification in clinical practice.

Machine learning model for predicting physical activity related bleeding risk in Chinese boys with haemophilia A. Thromb Res 2023; 232:43-53. [PMID: 37931538 DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2023.10.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical activity is a crucial part of an active lifestyle for haemophiliac children. However, the fear of bleeds has been identified as barriers to participating physical activity for haemophiliac children even with prophylaxis. Lack of evidence and metrics driven by data is key problem. OBJECTIVES We aim to develop machine learning models based on clinical data with multiple potential factors considered to predict risk of physical activity bleeding for haemophilia children with prophylaxis. METHODS From this cohort study, we collected information on 98 haemophiliac children with adequate prophylaxis (trough FVIII:C level > 1 %). The involved potential predictor variables include demographic information, treatment information, physical activity, joint evaluation, and pharmacokinetic parameters, etc. We applied CoxPH, Random Survival Forests (RSF) and DeepSurv to construct prediction models for the risk of bleeding during physical activities. All three survival analysis models were internally and externally validated. RESULTS A total of 98 patients were enrolled in this study. Their median age was 7.9 (5.5, 10.2) years. The CoxPH, RSF and DeepSurv models' discriminative and calibration abilities were all high, and the RSF model had the best performance (Internal validation: C-index, 0.7648 ± 0.0139; Brier Score, 0.1098 ± 0.0015; External validation: C-index, 0.7260 ± 0.0154; Brier Score, 0.0930 ± 0.0018). The prediction curves demonstrated that the developed RSF model can distinguish the risks well between bleeding and non-bleeding patients, as well as patients with different levels of physical activity. Meanwhile, the feature importance analysis confirmed that physical activity bleeding was deduced by comprehensive effects of various factors, and the importance of different factors on bleeding outcome is discrepant. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed from the mechanism that it is necessary to incorporate multiple factors to accurately predict physical activity related bleeding risk. In clinical practice, the designed machine learning models can provide guidance for children with haemophilia A to positively participate in physical activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Metabolic biomarkers can potentially inform disease progression in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The purpose of this study is to identify and describe a new set of diagnostic biomarkers for developing deep learning (DL) tools to predict AD using Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS)-based metabolomics data. METHODS A total of 177 individuals, including 78 with AD and 99 with cognitive normal (CN), were selected from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) cohort along with 150 metabolomic biomarkers. We performed feature selection using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO). The H2O DL function was used to build multilayer feedforward neural networks to predict AD. RESULTS The LASSO selected 21 metabolic biomarkers. To develop DL models, the 21 biomarkers identified by LASSO were imported into the H2O package. The data was split into 70% for training and 30% for validation. The best DL model with two layers and 18 neurons achieved an accuracy of 0.881, F1-score of 0.892, and AUC of 0.873. Several metabolomic biomarkers involved in glucose and lipid metabolism, in particular bile acid metabolites, were associated with APOE-ε4 allele and clinical biomarkers (Aβ42, tTau, pTau), cognitive assessments [the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale 13 (ADAS13), the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)], and hippocampus volume. CONCLUSIONS This study identified a new set of diagnostic metabolomic biomarkers for developing DL tools to predict AD. These biomarkers may help with early diagnosis, prognostic risk stratification, and/or early treatment interventions for patients at risk for AD.

Abstract
The understanding of pathogenesis of portal hypertension in patients with liver cirrhosis continues to evolve. In addition to progressive fibrosis, cirrhosis is characterized by parenchymal extinction and vascular remodelling, causing architectural distortion. Existence of prothrombotic state and more recently, intestinal bacterial dysbiosis are recently described in the pathogenesis of portal hypertension. Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is an important prognostic milestone in patients with liver cirrhosis. This is a pre-symptomatic phase that predicts the development of varices, ascites and importantly increased risk of Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). CSPH is associated with significantly reduced survival. Endoscopic surveillance is necessary in these patients. Non-selective Beta-blocker is the preferred therapy for primary prophylaxis in the management of portal hypertension. Patients with acute variceal bleed should be resuscitated appropriately, followed by vasoactive drugs and endoscopic therapy. Early TIPS should be considered in those with refractory bleed or in endoscopic treatment failure. Application of artificial intelligence and machine learning may be useful in future for identifying patients at risk of variceal hemorrhage.
