Abstract
CONTEXT
Four algorithms with relatively balanced complexity and accuracy in deep learning classification algorithm were selected for differential diagnosis of primary membranous nephropathy (PMN).
OBJECTIVE
This study explored the most suitable classification algorithm for PMN identification, and to provide data reference for PMN diagnosis research.
METHODS
A total of 500 patients were referred to Luo-he Central Hospital from 2019 to 2021. All patients were diagnosed with primary glomerular disease confirmed by renal biopsy, contained 322 cases of PMN, the 178 cases of non-PMN. Using the decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, and extreme gradient boosting (Xgboost) to establish a differential diagnosis model for PMN and non-PMN. Based on the true positive rate, true negative rate, false-positive rate, false-negative rate, accuracy, feature work area under the curve (AUC) of subjects, the best performance of the model was chosen.
RESULTS
The efficiency of the Xgboost model based on the above evaluation indicators was the highest, which the diagnosis of PMN of the sensitivity and specificity, respectively 92% and 96%.
CONCLUSIONS
The differential diagnosis model for PMN was established successfully and the efficiency performance of the Xgboost model was the best. It could be used for the clinical diagnosis of PMN.
