Xuan A, Chen H, Chen T, Li J, Lu S, Fan T, Zeng D, Wen Z, Ma J, Hunter D, Ding C, Zhu Z. The application of machine learning in early diagnosis of osteoarthritis: a narrative review. Ther Adv Musculoskelet Dis 2023; 15:1759720X231158198. [PMID: 36937823 PMCID: PMC10017946 DOI: 10.1177/1759720x231158198] [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: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the commonest musculoskeletal disease worldwide, with an increasing prevalence due to aging. It causes joint pain and disability, decreased quality of life, and a huge burden on healthcare services for society. However, the current main diagnostic methods are not suitable for early diagnosing patients of OA. The use of machine learning (ML) in OA diagnosis has increased dramatically in the past few years. Hence, in this review article, we describe the research progress in the application of ML in the early diagnosis of OA, discuss the current trends and limitations of ML approaches, and propose future research priorities to apply the tools in the field of OA. Accurate ML-based predictive models with imaging techniques that are sensitive to early changes in OA ahead of the emergence of clinical features are expected to address the current dilemma. The diagnostic ability of the fusion model that combines multidimensional information makes patient-specific early diagnosis and prognosis estimation of OA possible in the future.

[PMID: 29998104 PMCID: PMC6030383 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2018.00075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 109] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2018] [Accepted: 05/23/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
In this paper we present the findings of a systematic literature review covering the articles published in the last two decades in which the authors described the application of a machine learning technique and method to an orthopedic problem or purpose. By searching both in the Scopus and Medline databases, we retrieved, screened and analyzed the content of 70 journal articles, and coded these resources following an iterative method within a Grounded Theory approach. We report the survey findings by outlining the articles' content in terms of the main machine learning techniques mentioned therein, the orthopedic application domains, the source data and the quality of their predictive performance.
