Circadian assessment of heart failure using explainable deep learning and novel multi-parameter polar images. COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE 2024; 248:108107. [PMID: 38484409 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmpb.2024.108107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Heart failure (HF) is a multi-faceted and life-threatening syndrome that affects more than 64.3 million people worldwide. Current gold-standard screening technique, echocardiography, neglects cardiovascular information regulated by the circadian rhythm and does not incorporate knowledge from patient profiles. In this study, we propose a novel multi-parameter approach to assess heart failure using heart rate variability (HRV) and patient clinical information. METHODS In this approach, features from 24-hour HRV and clinical information were combined as a single polar image and fed to a 2D deep learning model to infer the HF condition. The edges of the polar image correspond to the timely variation of different features, each of which carries information on the function of the heart, and internal illustrates color-coded patient clinical information. RESULTS Under a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation scheme and using 7,575 polar images from a multi-center cohort (American and Greek) of 303 coronary artery disease patients (median age: 58 years [50-65], median body mass index (BMI): 27.28 kg/m2 [24.91-29.41]), the model yielded mean values for the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, normalized Matthews correlation coefficient (NMCC), and accuracy of 0.883, 90.68%, 95.19%, 0.93, and 92.62%, respectively. Moreover, interpretation of the model showed proper attention to key hourly intervals and clinical information for each HF stage. CONCLUSIONS The proposed approach could be a powerful early HF screening tool and a supplemental circadian enhancement to echocardiography which sets the basis for next-generation personalized healthcare.

Abstract
The abnormal heart conduction, known as arrhythmia, can contribute to cardiac diseases that carry the risk of fatal consequences. Healthcare professionals typically use electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and certain preliminary tests to identify abnormal patterns in a patient's cardiac activity. To assess the overall cardiac health condition, cardiac specialists monitor these activities separately. This procedure may be arduous and time-intensive, potentially impacting the patient's well-being. This study automates and introduces a novel solution for predicting the cardiac health conditions, specifically identifying cardiac morbidity and arrhythmia in patients by using invasive and non-invasive measurements. The experimental analyses conducted in medical studies entail extremely sensitive data and any partial or biased diagnoses in this field are deemed unacceptable. Therefore, this research aims to introduce a new concept of determining the uncertainty level of machine learning algorithms using information entropy. To assess the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms information entropy can be considered as a unique performance evaluator of the machine learning algorithm which is not selected previously any studies within the realm of bio-computational research. This experiment was conducted on arrhythmia and heart disease datasets collected from Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Berth Israel Hospital-arrhythmia (DB-1) and Cleveland Heart Disease (DB-2), respectively. Our framework consists of four significant steps: 1) Data acquisition, 2) Feature preprocessing approach, 3) Implementation of learning algorithms, and 4) Information Entropy. The results demonstrate the average performance in terms of accuracy achieved by the classification algorithms: Neural Network (NN) achieved 99.74%, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) 98.98%, Support Vector Machine (SVM) 99.37%, Random Forest (RF) 99.76 % and Naïve Bayes (NB) 98.66% respectively. We believe that this study paves the way for further research, offering a framework for identifying cardiac health conditions through machine learning techniques.

Abstract
Heart disease is one of the primary causes of morbidity and death worldwide. Millions of people have had heart attacks every year, and only early-stage predictions can help to reduce the number. Researchers are working on designing and developing early-stage prediction systems using different advanced technologies, and machine learning (ML) is one of them. Almost all existing ML-based works consider the same dataset (intra-dataset) for the training and validation of their method. In particular, they do not consider inter-dataset performance checks, where different datasets are used in the training and testing phases. In inter-dataset setup, existing ML models show a poor performance named the inter-dataset discrepancy problem. This work focuses on mitigating the inter-dataset discrepancy problem by considering five available heart disease datasets and their combined form. All potential training and testing mode combinations are systematically executed to assess discrepancies before and after applying the proposed methods. Imbalance data handling using SMOTE-Tomek, feature selection using random forest (RF), and feature extraction using principle component analysis (PCA) with a long preprocessing pipeline are used to mitigate the inter-dataset discrepancy problem. The preprocessing pipeline builds on missing value handling using RF regression, log transformation, outlier removal, normalization, and data balancing that convert the datasets to more ML-centric. Support vector machine, K-nearest neighbors, decision tree, RF, eXtreme Gradient Boosting, Gaussian naive Bayes, logistic regression, and multilayer perceptron are used as classifiers. Experimental results show that feature selection and classification using RF produce better results than other combination strategies in both single- and inter-dataset setups. In certain configurations of individual datasets, RF demonstrates 100% accuracy and 96% accuracy during the feature selection phase in an inter-dataset setup, exhibiting commendable precision, recall, F1 score, specificity, and AUC score. The results indicate that an effective preprocessing technique has the potential to improve the performance of the ML model without necessitating the development of intricate prediction models. Addressing inter-dataset discrepancies introduces a novel research avenue, enabling the amalgamation of identical features from various datasets to construct a comprehensive global dataset within a specific domain.

Abstract
Heart disease is one of the most dangerous diseases in the world. People with these diseases, most of them end up losing their lives. Therefore, machine learning algorithms have proven to be useful in this sense to help decision-making and prediction from the large amount of data generated by the healthcare sector. In this work, we have proposed a novel method that allows increasing the performance of the classical random forest technique so that this technique can be used for the prediction of heart disease with its better performance. We used in this study other classifiers such as classical random forest, support vector machine, decision tree, Naïve Bayes, and XGBoost. This work was done in the heart dataset Cleveland. According to the experimental results, the accuracy of the proposed model is better than that of other classifiers with 83.5%.This study contributed to the optimization of the random forest technique as well as gave solid knowledge of the formation of this technique.

Abstract
In recent times, there have been notable changes in cardiovascular medicine, propelled by the swift advancements in artificial intelligence (AI). The present work provides an overview of the current applications and challenges of AI in the field of heart failure. It emphasizes the "garbage in, garbage out" issue, where AI systems can produce inaccurate results with skewed data. The discussion covers issues in heart failure diagnostic algorithms, particularly discrepancies between existing models. Concerns about the reliance on the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) for classification and treatment are highlighted, showcasing differences in current scientific perceptions. This review also delves into challenges in implementing AI, including variable considerations and biases in training data. It underscores the limitations of current AI models in real-world scenarios and the difficulty in interpreting their predictions, contributing to limited physician trust in AI-based models. The overarching suggestion is that AI can be a valuable tool in clinicians' hands for treating heart failure patients, as far as existing medical inaccuracies have been addressed before integrating AI into these frameworks.

Differential diagnosis between dilated cardiomyopathy and ischemic cardiomyopathy based on variational mode decomposition and high order spectra analysis. Health Inf Sci Syst 2023; 11:43.

Abstract
The clinical manifestations of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) bear resemblance to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The definitive diagnosis of DCM necessitates the identification of invasive, costly, and contraindicated coronary angiography. Many diagnostic studies of cardiovascular disease have tried modal decomposition based on electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. However, these studies ignored the connection between modes and other fields, thus limiting the interpretability of modes to ECG signals and the classification performance of models. This study proposes a classification algorithm based on variational mode decomposition (VMD) and high order spectra, which decomposes the preprocessed ECG signal and extracts its first five modes obtained through VMD. After that, these modes are estimated for their corresponding bispectrums, and the feature vector is composed of fifteen features including bispectral, frequency, and nonlinear features based on this. Finally, a dataset containing 75 subjects (38 DCM, 37 ICM) is classified and compared using random forest (RF), decision tree, support vector machine, and K-nearest neighbor. The results show that, in comparison to previous approaches, the technique proposed provides a better categorization for DCM and ICM of ECG signals, which delivers 98.21% classification accuracy, 98.22% sensitivity, and 98.19% specificity. And mode 3 always has the best performance among single mode. The proposed computerized framework significantly improves automatic diagnostic performance, which can help relieve the working pressure on doctors, possible economic burden and health threaten.

Abstract
Adrenergic α2a (ADRA2A) receptors play a crucial role in modulating various physiological actions, thereby influencing the proper functioning of different systems in the body. ADRA2A regulation is associated with a wide range of effects, including alterations in blood pressure, hypertension, heightened heart rate, etc. Inhibition of these receptors results in the release of noradrenaline, leading to heightened physiological activity, improved alertness, reduced blood pressure, and alleviation of hypertension. Conventional approaches for identifying ADRA2A inhibitors are burdened with high costs, labor-intensive procedures, and time-consuming processes. In light of these challenges, leveraging the power of artificial intelligence offers a promising solution for drug discovery and development. This study endeavors to harness the potential of artificial intelligence to develop robust models capable of accurately predicting ADRA2A inhibitors and non-inhibitors. By doing so, we aim to streamline and expedite the identification of potential drug candidates in this domain. In this study, we employed four different machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms to develop prediction models based on various molecular descriptors (1D, 2D, and molecular fingerprints). Among these models, the DL-based prediction model demonstrated superior performance, achieving accuracies of 98.25% and 97.23% on the training and test datasets, respectively. These results underscore the efficacy of DL-based model, as a highly effective tool for predicting ADRA2A inhibitors.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a heterogeneous syndrome affecting more than 60 million individuals globally. Despite recent advancements in understanding of the pathophysiology of HF, many issues remain including residual risk despite therapy, understanding the pathophysiology and phenotypes of patients with HF and preserved ejection fraction, and the challenges related to integrating a large amount of disparate information available for risk stratification and management of these patients. Risk prediction algorithms based on artificial intelligence (AI) may have superior predictive ability compared to traditional methods in certain instances. AI algorithms can play a pivotal role in the evolution of HF care by facilitating clinical decision making to overcome various challenges such as allocation of treatment to patients who are at highest risk or are more likely to benefit from therapies, prediction of adverse outcomes, and early identification of patients with subclinical disease or worsening HF. With the ability to integrate and synthesize large amounts of data with multidimensional interactions, AI algorithms can supply information with which physicians can improve their ability to make timely and better decisions. In this review, we provide an overview of the AI algorithms that have been developed for establishing early diagnosis of HF, phenotyping HF with preserved ejection fraction, and stratifying HF disease severity. This review also discusses the challenges in clinical deployment of AI algorithms in HF, and the potential path forward for developing future novel learning-based algorithms to improve HF care.

Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) is one of the common adverse cardiovascular events after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but the predictive efficacy of numerous machine learning (ML) built models is unclear. This study aimed to build an optimal model to predict the occurrence of HF in AMI patients by comparing seven ML algorithms. METHODS Cohort 1 included AMI patients from 2018 to 2019 divided into HF and control groups. All first routine test data of the study subjects were collected as the features to be selected for the model, and seven ML algorithms with screenable features were evaluated. Cohort 2 contains AMI patients from 2020 to 2021 to establish an early warning model with external validation. ROC curve and DCA curve to analyze the diagnostic efficacy and clinical benefit of the model respectively. RESULTS The best performer among the seven ML algorithms was XgBoost, and the features of XgBoost algorithm for troponin I, triglycerides, urine red blood cell count, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase, glucose, urine specific gravity, prothrombin time, prealbumin, and urea were ranked high in importance. The AUC of the HF-Lab9 prediction model built by the XgBoost algorithm was 0.966 and had good clinical benefits. CONCLUSIONS This study screened the optimal ML algorithm as XgBoost and developed the model HF-Lab9 will improve the accuracy of clinicians in assessing the occurrence of HF after AMI and provide a reference for the selection of subsequent model-building algorithms.

Abstract
Mounting evidence has linked changes in human gut microbiota to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use. Accordingly, multiple studies have analyzed the gut microbiomes of PPI users, but PPI-microbe interactions are still understudied. Here, we performed a meta-analysis of four studies with available 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing data to uncover the potential changes in human gut microbes among PPI users. Despite some differences, we found common features of the PPI-specific microbiota, including a decrease in the Shannon diversity index and the depletion of bacteria from the Ruminococcaceae and Lachnospiraceae families, which are crucial short-chain fatty acid-producers. Through training based on multiple studies, using a random forest classification model, we further verified the representativeness of the six screened gut microbial genera and 20 functional genes as PPI-related biomarkers, with AUC values of 0.748 and 0.879, respectively. Functional analysis of the PPI-associated 16S rRNA microbiome revealed enriched carbohydrate- and energy-associated genes, mostly encoding fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and pyruvate dehydrogenase, among others. In this study, we have demonstrated alterations in bacterial abundance and functional metabolic potential related to PPI use, as a basis for future studies on PPI-induced adverse effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Currently, a multitude of machine learning techniques are available for the diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) by utilizing electrocardiography (ECG) data. However, these methods rely on digital versions of ECG data, while in practice, numerous ECG data still exist in paper form. As a result, the accuracy of the existing machine learning diagnostic models is suboptimal in practical scenarios. In order to enhance the accuracy of machine learning models for diagnosing cardiomyopathy, we propose a multimodal machine learning model capable of diagnosing both HCM and DCM. METHODS Our study employed an artificial neural network (ANN) for feature extraction from both the echocardiogram report form and biochemical examination data. Furthermore, a convolutional neural network (CNN) was utilized for feature extraction from the electrocardiogram (ECG). The resulting extracted features were subsequently integrated and inputted into a multilayer perceptron (MLP) for diagnostic classification. RESULTS Our multimodal fusion model achieved a precision of 89.87%, recall of 91.20%, F1 score of 89.13%, and precision of 89.72%. CONCLUSIONS Compared to existing machine learning models, our proposed multimodal fusion model has achieved superior results in various performance metrics. We believe that our method is effective.

[PMID: 36897405 PMCID: PMC10000349 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-023-09955-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously developed grading metrics for quantitative performance measurement for simulated endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) to create a scalar reference to classify subjects into experts and novices. In this work, we used synthetic data generation and expanded our skill level analysis using machine learning techniques. METHODS We used the synthetic data generation algorithm SMOTE to expand and balance our dataset of seven actual simulated ESG procedures using synthetic data. We performed optimization to seek optimum metrics to classify experts and novices by identifying the most critical and distinctive sub-tasks. We used support vector machine (SVM), AdaBoost, K-nearest neighbors (KNN) Kernel Fisher discriminant analysis (KFDA), random forest, and decision tree classifiers to classify surgeons as experts or novices after grading. Furthermore, we used an optimization model to create weights for each task and separate the clusters by maximizing the distance between the expert and novice scores. RESULTS We split our dataset into a training set of 15 samples and a testing dataset of five samples. We put this dataset through six classifiers, SVM, KFDA, AdaBoost, KNN, random forest, and decision tree, resulting in 0.94, 0.94, 1.00, 1.00, 1.00, and 1.00 accuracy, respectively, for training and 1.00 accuracy for the testing results for SVM and AdaBoost. Our optimization model maximized the distance between the expert and novice groups from 2 to 53.72. CONCLUSION This paper shows that feature reduction, in combination with classification algorithms such as SVM and KNN, can be used in tandem to classify endoscopists as experts or novices based on their results recorded using our grading metrics. Furthermore, this work introduces a non-linear constraint optimization to separate the two clusters and find the most important tasks using weights.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases have threatened human health, amongst which coronary heart disease (CHD) is the third most common cause of death. CHD is considered to be a metabolic disease; however, there is little research on the CHD metabolism. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) has enabled the development of a suitable nanomaterial that can be used to obtain considerable high-quality metabolic information without complex pretreatment of biological fluid samples. This study combines SiO2@Au nanoshells with minute plasma to obtain metabolic fingerprints of CHD. The thickness of the SiO2@Au shell was also optimized to maximize the laser desorption/ionization effect. The results demonstrated 84% sensitivity at 85% specificity for distinguishing CHD patients from controls in the validation cohort.

Abstract
COVID-19 pandemic is the main outbreak in the world, which has shown a bad impact on people's lives in more than 150 countries. The major steps in fighting COVID-19 are identifying the affected patients as early as possible and locating them with special care. Images from radiology and radiography are among the most effective tools for determining a patient's ailment. Recent studies have shown detailed abnormalities of affected patients with COVID-19 in the chest radiograms. The purpose of this work is to present a COVID-19 detection system with three key steps: "(i) preprocessing, (ii) Feature extraction, (iii) Classification." Originally, the input image is given to the preprocessing step as its input, extracting the deep features and texture features from the preprocessed image. Particularly, it extracts the deep features by inceptionv3. Then, the features like proposed Local Vector Patterns (LVP) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) are extracted from the preprocessed image. Moreover, the extracted features are subjected to the proposed ensemble model based classification phase, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Optimized Neural Network (NN), and Random Forest (RF). A novel Self Adaptive Kill Herd Optimization (SAKHO) approach is used to properly tune the weight of NN to improve classification accuracy and precision. The performance of the proposed method is then compared to the performance of the conventional approaches using a variety of metrics, including recall, FNR, MCC, FDR, Thread score, FPR, precision, FOR, accuracy, specificity, NPV, FMS, and sensitivity, accordingly.

Combinations of medicines in patients with polypharmacy aged 65-100 in primary care: Large variability in risks of adverse drug related and emergency hospital admissions. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0281466.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polypharmacy can be a consequence of overprescribing that is prevalent in older adults with multimorbidity. Polypharmacy can cause adverse reactions and result in hospital admission. This study predicted risks of adverse drug reaction (ADR)-related and emergency hospital admissions by medicine classes. METHODS We used electronic health record data from general practices of Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD GOLD) and Aurum. Older patients who received at least five medicines were included. Medicines were classified using the British National Formulary sections. Hospital admission cases were propensity-matched to controls by age, sex, and propensity for specific diseases. The matched data were used to develop and validate random forest (RF) models to predict the risk of ADR-related and emergency hospital admissions. Shapley Additive eXplanation (SHAP) values were calculated to explain the predictions. RESULTS In total, 89,235 cases with polypharmacy and hospitalised with an ADR-related admission were matched to 443,497 controls. There were over 112,000 different combinations of the 50 medicine classes most implicated in ADR-related hospital admission in the RF models, with the most important medicine classes being loop diuretics, domperidone and/or metoclopramide, medicines for iron-deficiency anaemias and for hypoplastic/haemolytic/renal anaemias, and sulfonamides and/or trimethoprim. The RF models strongly predicted risks of ADR-related and emergency hospital admission. The observed Odds Ratio in the highest RF decile was 7.16 (95% CI 6.65-7.72) in the validation dataset. The C-statistics for ADR-related hospital admissions were 0.58 for age and sex and 0.66 for RF probabilities. CONCLUSIONS Polypharmacy involves a very large number of different combinations of medicines, with substantial differences in risks of ADR-related and emergency hospital admissions. Although the medicines may not be causally related to increased risks, RF model predictions may be useful in prioritising medication reviews. Simple tools based on few medicine classes may not be effective in identifying high risk patients.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a serious condition in which the heart fails to supply the body with enough oxygen and nutrients to function normally. Early and accurate detection of heart failure is critical for impeding disease progression. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a test that records the rhythm and electrical activity of the heart and is used to detect HF. It is used to look for irregularities in the heart's rhythm or electrical conduction, as well as a history of heart attacks, ischemia, and other conditions that may initiate HF. However, sometimes, it becomes difficult and time-consuming to interpret the ECG signal, even for a cardiac expert. This paper proposes two models to automatically detect HF from ECG signals: the first one introduces a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), while the second one suggests an extension of it by integrating a Support Vector Machine (SVM) layer for the classification at the end of the network. The proposed models provide a more accurate automatic HF detection using 2-s ECG fragments. Both models are smaller than previously proposed models in the literature when the architecture is taken into account, reducing both training time and memory consumption. The MIT-BIH and the BIDMC databases are used for training and testing the adopted models. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework by achieving an accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of over 99% with blindfold cross-validation. The models proposed in this study can provide doctors with reliable references and can be used in portable devices to enable the real-time monitoring of patients.

Abstract
Background Post-operative mortality risk assessment for geriatric patients with hip fractures (HF) is a challenge for clinicians. Early identification of geriatric HF patients with a high risk of post-operative death is helpful for early intervention and improving clinical prognosis. However, a single significant risk factor of post-operative death cannot accurately predict the prognosis of geriatric HF patients. Therefore, our study aims to utilize a machine learning approach, random forest algorithm, to fabricate a prediction model for post-operative death of geriatric HF patients. Methods This retrospective study enrolled consecutive geriatric HF patients who underwent treatment for surgery. The study cohort was divided into training and testing datasets at a 70:30 ratio. The random forest algorithm selected or excluded variables according to the feature importance. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) was utilized to compare feature selection results of random forest. The confirmed variables were used to create a simplified model instead of a full model with all variables. The prediction model was then verified in the training dataset and testing dataset. Additionally, a prediction model constructed by logistic regression was used as a control to evaluate the efficiency of the new prediction model. Results Feature selection by random forest algorithm and Lasso regression demonstrated that seven variables, including age, time from injury to surgery, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), albumin, hemoglobin, history of malignancy, and perioperative blood transfusion, could be used to predict the 1-year post-operative mortality. The area under the curve (AUC) of the random forest algorithm-based prediction model in training and testing datasets were 1.000, and 0.813, respectively. While the prediction tool constructed by logistic regression in training and testing datasets were 0.895, and 0.797, respectively. Conclusions Compared with logistic regression, the random forest algorithm-based prediction model exhibits better predictive ability for geriatric HF patients with a high risk of death within post-operative 1 year.

Abstract
In order to aid imaging physicians to effectively screen chest radiography medical images for presence of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), a novel computer aided diagnosis technology for automatic processing of COVID-19 images is proposed based on two-dimensional variational mode decomposition (2D-VMD) and locally linear embedding (LLE). 2D-VMD algorithm is used to decompose normal and COVID-19 images, and then feature extraction of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using Gabor filter. To better extract low-dimensional parameters which are useful for COVID-19 diagnosis, the performance of two dimensionality reduction techniques of principal component analysis (PCA) and LLE are compared, and the LLE is shown to offer satisfactory effect of dimension reduction. Thereafter, the particle swarm optimization-support vector machine (PSO-SVM) algorithm is used to classify. The simulation results show that the proposed technology has achieved accuracy of 99.33%, precision of 100%, recall of 98.63% and F-Measure of 99.31%. Hence, the developed diagnosis technology can be used as an important auxiliary tool to assist diagnosis of imaging physicians.

Abstract
The study is the first attempt to assess the role of climatic predictors in the rise of COVID-19 intensity in the Russian climatic region. The study used the Random Forest algorithm to understand the underlying associations and monthly scenarios. The results show that temperature seasonality (29.2 ± 0.9%) has the highest contribution for COVID-19 transmission in the humid continental region. In comparison, the diurnal temperature range (26.8 ± 0.4%) and temperature seasonality (14.6 ± 0.8%) had the highest impacts in the sub-arctic region. Our results also show that September and October have favorable climatic conditions for the COVID-19 spread in the sub-arctic and humid continental regions, respectively. From June to August, the high favorable zone for the spread of the disease will shift towards the sub-arctic region from the humid continental region. The study suggests that the government should implement strict measures for these months to prevent the second wave of COVID-19 outbreak in Russia.

Abstract
One of the leading causes of deaths around the globe is heart disease. Heart is an organ that is responsible for the supply of blood to each part of the body. Coronary artery disease (CAD) and chronic heart failure (CHF) often lead to heart attack. Traditional medical procedures (angiography) for the diagnosis of heart disease have higher cost as well as serious health concerns. Therefore, researchers have developed various automated diagnostic systems based on machine learning (ML) and data mining techniques. ML-based automated diagnostic systems provide an affordable, efficient, and reliable solutions for heart disease detection. Various ML, data mining methods, and data modalities have been utilized in the past. Many previous review papers have presented systematic reviews based on one type of data modality. This study, therefore, targets systematic review of automated diagnosis for heart disease prediction based on different types of modalities, i.e., clinical feature-based data modality, images, and ECG. Moreover, this paper critically evaluates the previous methods and presents the limitations in these methods. Finally, the article provides some future research directions in the domain of automated heart disease detection based on machine learning and multiple of data modalities.

Abstract
AbstractElectrocardiogram (ECG) serves as the gold standard for noninvasive diagnosis of several types of heart disorders. In this study, a novel hybrid approach of deep neural network combined with linear and nonlinear features extracted from ECG and heart rate variability (HRV) is proposed for ECG multi-class classification. The proposed system enhances the ECG diagnosis performance by combining optimized deep learning features with an effective aggregation of ECG features and HRV measures using chaos theory and fragmentation analysis. The constant-Q non-stationary Gabor transform technique is employed to convert the 1-D ECG signal into 2-D image which is sent to a pre-trained convolutional neural network structure, called AlexNet. The pair-wise feature proximity algorithm is employed to select the optimal features from the AlexNet output feature vector to be concatenated with the ECG and HRV measures. The concatenated features are sent to different types of classifiers to distinguish three distinct subjects, namely congestive heart failure, arrhythmia, and normal sinus rhythm (NSR). The results reveal that the linear discriminant analysis classifier has the highest accuracy compared to the other classifiers. The proposed system is investigated with real ECG data taken from well-known databases, and the experimental results show that the proposed diagnosis system outperforms other recent state-of-the-art systems in terms of accuracy 98.75%, specificity 99.00%, sensitivity of 98.18%, and computational time 0.15 s. This demonstrates that the proposed system can be used to assist cardiologists in enhancing the accuracy of ECG diagnosis in real-time clinical setting.

Abstract
Background Diabetic mellitus (DM) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) cause significant healthcare burden globally and often co-exists. Current approaches often fail to identify many people with co-occurrence of DM and CVD, leading to delay in healthcare seeking, increased complications and morbidity. In this paper, we aimed to develop and evaluate a two-stage machine learning (ML) model to predict the co-occurrence of DM and CVD. Methods We used the diabetes complications screening research initiative (DiScRi) dataset containing >200 variables from >2000 participants. In the first stage, we used two ML models (logistic regression and Evimp functions) implemented in multivariate adaptive regression splines model to infer the significant common risk factors for DM and CVD and applied the correlation matrix to reduce redundancy. In the second stage, we used classification and regression algorithm to develop our model. We evaluated the prediction models using prediction accuracy, sensitivity and specificity as performance metrics. Results Common risk factors for DM and CVD co-occurrence was family history of the diseases, gender, deep breathing heart rate change, lying to standing blood pressure change, HbA1c, HDL and TC\HDL ratio. The predictive model showed that the participants with HbA1c >6.45 and TC\HDL ratio > 5.5 were at risk of developing both diseases (97.9% probability). In contrast, participants with HbA1c >6.45 and TC\HDL ratio ≤ 5.5 were more likely to have only DM (84.5% probability) and those with HbA1c ≤5.45 and HDL >1.45 were likely to be healthy (82.4%. probability). Further, participants with HbA1c ≤5.45 and HDL <1.45 were at risk of only CVD (100% probability). The predictive accuracy of the ML model to detect co-occurrence of DM and CVD is 94.09%, sensitivity 93.5%, and specificity 95.8%. Conclusions Our ML model can significantly predict with high accuracy the co-occurrence of DM and CVD in people attending a screening program. This might help in early detection of patients with DM and CVD who could benefit from preventive treatment and reduce future healthcare burden.

Abstract
Diabetes and high blood pressure are the primary causes of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) and kidney damage markers are used by researchers around the world to identify CKD as a condition that leads to reduced renal function over time. A person with CKD has a higher chance of dying young. Doctors face a difficult task in diagnosing the different diseases linked to CKD at an early stage in order to prevent the disease. This research presents a novel deep learning model for the early detection and prediction of CKD. This research objectives to create a deep neural network and compare its performance to that of other contemporary machine learning techniques. In tests, the average of the associated features was used to replace all missing values in the database. After that, the neural network's optimum parameters were fixed by establishing the parameters and running multiple trials. The foremost important features were selected by Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE). Hemoglobin, Specific Gravity, Serum Creatinine, Red Blood Cell Count, Albumin, Packed Cell Volume, and Hypertension were found as key features in the RFE. Selected features were passed to machine learning models for classification purposes. The proposed Deep neural model outperformed the other four classifiers (Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Logistic regression, Random Forest, and Naive Bayes classifier) by achieving 100% accuracy. The proposed approach could be a useful tool for nephrologists in detecting CKD.

Abstract
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a chronic cardiovascular condition associated with dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Heart rate variability (HRV) has been widely used to assess ANS. This paper proposes a new HRV analysis method, which uses information-based similarity (IBS) transformation and fuzzy approximate entropy (fApEn) algorithm to obtain the fApEn_IBS index, which is used to observe the complexity of autonomic fluctuations in CHF within 24 h. We used 98 ECG records (54 health records and 44 CHF records) from the PhysioNet database. The fApEn_IBS index was statistically significant between the control and CHF groups (p < 0.001). Compared with the classical indices low-to-high frequency power ratio (LF/HF) and IBS, the fApEn_IBS index further utilizes the changes in the rhythm of heart rate (HR) fluctuations between RR intervals to fully extract relevant information between adjacent time intervals and significantly improves the performance of CHF screening. The CHF classification accuracy of fApEn_IBS was 84.69%, higher than LF/HF (77.55%) and IBS (83.67%). Moreover, the combination of IBS, fApEn_IBS, and LF/HF reached the highest CHF screening accuracy (98.98%) with the random forest (RF) classifier, indicating that the IBS and LF/HF had good complementarity. Therefore, fApEn_IBS effusively reflects the complexity of autonomic nerves in CHF and is a valuable CHF assessment tool.

Abstract
Background: Many studies have linked dysbiosis of the gut microbiome to the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, studies assessing the association between the salivary microbiome and CVD risk on a large cohort remain sparse. This study aims to identify whether a predictive salivary microbiome signature is associated with a high risk of developing CVD in the Qatari population. Methods: Saliva samples from 2,974 Qatar Genome Project (QGP) participants were collected from Qatar Biobank (QBB). Based on the CVD score, subjects were classified into low-risk (LR < 10) (n = 2491), moderate-risk (MR = 10-20) (n = 320) and high-risk (HR > 30) (n = 163). To assess the salivary microbiome (SM) composition, 16S-rDNA libraries were sequenced and analyzed using QIIME-pipeline. Machine Learning (ML) strategies were used to identify SM-based predictors of CVD risk. Results: Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the predominant phyla among all the subjects included. Linear Discriminant Analysis Effect Size (LEfSe) analysis revealed that Clostridiaceae and Capnocytophaga were the most significantly abundant genera in the LR group, while Lactobacillus and Rothia were significantly abundant in the HR group. ML based prediction models revealed that Desulfobulbus, Prevotella, and Tissierellaceae were the common predictors of increased risk to CVD. Conclusion: This study identified significant differences in the SM composition in HR and LR CVD subjects. This is the first study to apply ML-based prediction modeling using the SM to predict CVD in an Arab population. More studies are required to better understand the mechanisms of how those microbes contribute to CVD.

Abstract
Usually, heart failure occurs when heart-related diseases are developed and continue to deteriorate veins and arteries. Heart failure is the final stage of heart disease, and it has become an important medical problem, particularly among the aging population. In medical diagnosis and treatment, the examination of heart failure contains various indicators such as electrocardiogram. It is one of the relatively common ways to collect heart failure or attack related information and is also used as a reference indicator for doctors. Electrocardiogram indicates the potential activity of patient's heart and directly reflects the changes in it. In this paper, a deep learning-based diagnosis system is presented for the early detection of heart failure particularly in elderly patients. For this purpose, we have used two datasets, Physio-Bank and MIMIC-III, which are publicly available, to extract ECG signals and thoroughly examine heart failure. Initially, a heart failure diagnosis model which is based on attention convolutional neural network (CBAM-CNN) is proposed to automatically extract features. Additionally, attention module adaptively learns the characteristics of local features and efficiently extracts the complex features of the ECG signal to perform classification diagnosis. To verify the exceptional performance of the proposed network model, various experiments were carried out in the realistic environment of hospitals. Influence of signal preprocessing on the performance of model is also discussed. These results show that the proposed CBAM-CNN model performance is better for both classifications of ECG signals. Likewise, the CBAM-CNN model is sensitive to noise, and its accuracy is effectively improved as soon as signal is refined.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a serious syndrome, with high rates of mortality. Accurate classification of HF according to the left ventricular ejection faction (EF) plays an important role in the clinical treatment. Compared to echocardiography, cine cardiac magnetic resonance images (Cine-CMR) can estimate more accurate EF, whereas rare studies focus on the application of Cine-CMR. In this paper, a self-supervised learning framework for HF classification called SSLHF was proposed to automatically classify the HF patients into HF patients with preserved EF and HF patients with reduced EF based on Cine-CMR. In order to enable the classification network better learn the spatial and temporal information contained in the Cine-CMR, the SSLHF consists of two stages: self-supervised image restoration and HF classification. In the first stage, an image restoration proxy task was designed to help a U-Net like network mine the HF information in the spatial and temporal dimensions. In the second stage, a HF classification network whose weights were initialized by the encoder part of the U-Net like network was trained to complete the HF classification. Benefitting from the proxy task, the SSLHF achieved an AUC of 0.8505 and an ACC of 0.8208 in the 5-fold cross-validation.

Abstract
COVID-19 and heart failure (HF) are common disorders and although they share some similar symptoms, they require different treatments. Accurate diagnosis of these disorders is crucial for disease management, including patient isolation to curb infection spread of COVID-19. In this work, we aim to develop a computer-aided diagnostic system that can accurately differentiate these three classes (normal, COVID-19 and HF) using cough sounds. A novel handcrafted model was used to classify COVID-19 vs. healthy (Case 1), HF vs. healthy (Case 2) and COVID-19 vs. HF vs. healthy (Case 3) automatically using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) patterns. The model was developed using the cough sounds collected from 241 COVID-19 patients, 244 HF patients, and 247 healthy subjects using a hand phone. To the best our knowledge, this is the first work to automatically classify healthy subjects, HF and COVID-19 patients using cough sounds signals. Our proposed model comprises a graph-based local feature generator (DNA pattern), an iterative maximum relevance minimum redundancy (ImRMR) iterative feature selector, with classification using the k-nearest neighbor classifier. Our proposed model attained an accuracy of 100.0%, 99.38%, and 99.49% for Case 1, Case 2, and Case 3, respectively. The developed system is completely automated and economical, and can be utilized to accurately detect COVID-19 versus HF using cough sounds.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to address chronic heart failure (HF) diagnosis with the application of machine learning (ML) approaches. In the present study, we simulated the procedure that is followed in clinical practice, as the models we built are based on various combinations of feature categories, e.g., clinical features, echocardiogram, and laboratory findings. We also investigated the incremental value of each feature type. The total number of subjects utilized was 422. An ML approach is proposed, comprising of feature selection, handling class imbalance, and classification steps. The results for HF diagnosis were quite satisfactory with a high accuracy (91.23%), sensitivity (93.83%), and specificity (89.62%) when features from all categories were utilized. The results remained quite high, even in cases where single feature types were employed.

Abstract
The advent of advances in machine learning (ML)-based techniques has popularized wide applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in various fields ranging from robotics to medicine. In recent years, there has been a surge in the application of AI to research in cardiovascular medicine, which is largely driven by the availability of large-scale clinical and multi-omics datasets. Such applications are providing a new perspective for a better understanding of cardiovascular disease (CVD), which could be used to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. For example, studies have shown that ML has a substantial potential for early diagnosis of different types of CVD, prediction of adverse disease outcomes such as heart failure, and development of newer and personalized treatments. In this article, we provide an overview and discuss the current status of a wide range of AI applications, including machine learning, reinforcement learning, and deep learning, in cardiovascular medicine. © 2021 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
In medical disease diagnosis, the cost of a false negative could greatly outweigh the cost of a false positive. This is because the former could cost a life, whereas the latter may only cause medical costs and stress to the patient. The unique nature of this problem highlights the need of asymmetric error control for binary classification applications. In this domain, traditional machine learning classifiers may not be ideal as they do not provide a way to control the number of false negatives below a certain threshold. This paper proposes a novel tree-based binary classification algorithm that can control the number of false negatives with a mathematical guarantee, based on Neyman–Pearson (NP) Lemma. This classifier is evaluated on the data obtained from different heart studies and it predicts the risk of cardiac disease, not only with comparable accuracy and AUC-ROC score but also with full control over the number of false negatives. The methodology used to construct this classifier can be expanded to many more use cases, not only in medical disease diagnosis but also beyond as shown from analysis on different diverse datasets.

Abstract
Objective.An electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most common means to diagnose arrhythmia according to different waveforms clinically. Although there are advanced classification methods such as deep learning, the single view feature cannot meet the demand of classification accuracy for new individuals. To this end, a classification model based on multiview fusion was proposed.Approach.First, handcrafted view features were extracted from heartbeats and then deep view features were obtained from the deep learning model. The features of two different perspectives were fused in the fully connected layer, and the random forest classifier was used instead of the Softmax classifier for classification. Notably, Bayesian optimization was utilized in the hyper-parameter tuning of the classifier. The proposed method employed the MIT-BIH database to classify five classes: normal heartbeat (N), left bundle branch block heartbeat (LB), right bundle branch block heartbeat (RB), atrial premature contraction (APC) and premature ventricular contraction (PVC).Main results.The experimental results achieved a higher average accuracy of 98.93%, average precision of 96.92%, average sensitivity of 96.46%, and average specificity of 99.33% in five types of heartbeat classification for inter-patient.Significance.The proposed framework improves the performance of ECG detection for new individuals. And it provides an feasible algorithmic model for single-lead wearable devices with multiview fusion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION One of the most important steps in combating breast cancer is early and accurate diagnosis. Unfortunately, breast cancer is asymptomatic at the early stage, although some symptoms are presented at a later time, but at symptomatic stage treatment could be complicated or even become impossible thereby leading to death. Proper risk assessment is hence very important in reducing mortality. Some computational techniques have been developed for breast cancer risk assessment in the developed world, but such techniques do not work well in Africa because of the difference in risk profiles of African women e.g. later menarche, low drug abuse and low smoking rate. AIM In this work, we propose a bespoke risk prediction model for African women using Random Forest Classifier (RFC) machine learning technique. METHODS A total of 180 subjects were studied out of which 90 were confirmed cases of breast cancer and 90 were benign. Twenty-five risk factors were included, for example, smoking, alcohol intake, occupational hazards and age at menopause. Four approaches were empirically used in the feature selection, these are the use of Chi-Square, mutual information gain, Spearman correlation and the entire features. RFC algorithm was used to develop the prediction model. RESULTS We found that family history of breast cancer, dense breast, deliberate abortion, age at first child, fruit intake and regular exercise are predictors of breast cancer. The RFC model gave an accuracy of 91.67%, sensitivity of 87.10%, specificity of 96.55% and Area under curve (AUC) of 92% when all the risk factors were included in the model while an accuracy of 96.67%, sensitivity of 93.75%, specificity of 100% and AUC of 97% were obtained when correlation-selected features were included in the model. The Chi-Square selected features gave the best performance with 98.33% accuracy, 100% sensitivity, 96.55 specificity and 98% AUC. Mutual information gain selected feature gave the same results as Chi-Square selected features. CONCLUSION Random Forest Classifier has a good potential at predicting the risk of breast cancer in African women. The study helped to identify the risk factors of breast cancer in African women. This is a valuable information which can help African women to pay attention to those risk factors with the intention of reducing the incidence of breast cancer in Africa.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are main causes of death globally with coronary artery disease (CAD) being the most important. Timely diagnosis and treatment of CAD is crucial to reduce the incidence of CAD complications like myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemia-induced congestive heart failure (CHF). Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are most commonly employed as the diagnostic screening tool to detect CAD. In this study, an automated system (AS) was developed for the automated categorization of electrocardiogram signals into normal, CAD, myocardial infarction (MI) and congestive heart failure (CHF) classes using convolutional neural network (CNN) and unique GaborCNN models. Weight balancing was used to balance the imbalanced dataset. High classification accuracies of more than 98.5% were obtained by the CNN and GaborCNN models respectively, for the 4-class classification of normal, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure classes. GaborCNN is a more preferred model due to its good performance and reduced computational complexity as compared to the CNN model. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to propose GaborCNN model for automated categorizing of normal, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure classes using ECG signals. Our proposed system is equipped to be validated with bigger database and has the potential to aid the clinicians to screen for CVDs using ECG signals.

Abstract
Land subsidence (LS) in arid and semi-arid areas, such as Iran, is a significant threat to sustainable land management. The purpose of this study is to predict the LS distribution by generating land subsidence susceptibility models (LSSMs) for the Shahroud plain in Iran using three different multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) and five different artificial intelligence (AI) models. The MCDM models we used are the VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija IKompromisno Resenje (VIKOR), Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Complex Proportional Assessment (COPRAS), and the AI models are the extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), Cubist, Elasticnet, Bayesian multivariate adaptive regression spline (BMARS) and conditional random forest (Cforest) methods. We used the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, Area Under Curve (AUC) and different statistical indices,i.e. accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F score, Kappa, Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Nash-Sutcliffe Criteria (NSC)to validate and evaluate the methods. Based on the different validation techniques, the Cforest method yielded the best results with minimum and maximum values of 0.04 and 0.99, respectively. According to the Cforest model, 30.55% of the study area is extremely vulnerable to land subsidence. The results of our research will be of great help to planners and policy makers in the identification of the most vulnerable regions and the implementation of appropriate development strategies in this area.

Machine learning for subtype definition and risk prediction in heart failure, acute coronary syndromes and atrial fibrillation: systematic review of validity and clinical utility. BMC Med 2021; 19:85. [PMID: 33820530 PMCID: PMC8022365 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-021-01940-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 02/12/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Machine learning (ML) is increasingly used in research for subtype definition and risk prediction, particularly in cardiovascular diseases. No existing ML models are routinely used for cardiovascular disease management, and their phase of clinical utility is unknown, partly due to a lack of clear criteria. We evaluated ML for subtype definition and risk prediction in heart failure (HF), acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS For ML studies of subtype definition and risk prediction, we conducted a systematic review in HF, ACS and AF, using PubMed, MEDLINE and Web of Science from January 2000 until December 2019. By adapting published criteria for diagnostic and prognostic studies, we developed a seven-domain, ML-specific checklist. RESULTS Of 5918 studies identified, 97 were included. Across studies for subtype definition (n = 40) and risk prediction (n = 57), there was variation in data source, population size (median 606 and median 6769), clinical setting (outpatient, inpatient, different departments), number of covariates (median 19 and median 48) and ML methods. All studies were single disease, most were North American (n = 61/97) and only 14 studies combined definition and risk prediction. Subtype definition and risk prediction studies respectively had limitations in development (e.g. 15.0% and 78.9% of studies related to patient benefit; 15.0% and 15.8% had low patient selection bias), validation (12.5% and 5.3% externally validated) and impact (32.5% and 91.2% improved outcome prediction; no effectiveness or cost-effectiveness evaluations). CONCLUSIONS Studies of ML in HF, ACS and AF are limited by number and type of included covariates, ML methods, population size, country, clinical setting and focus on single diseases, not overlap or multimorbidity. Clinical utility and implementation rely on improvements in development, validation and impact, facilitated by simple checklists. We provide clear steps prior to safe implementation of machine learning in clinical practice for cardiovascular diseases and other disease areas.
