BMC Public Health 2024; 24:1206. [PMID: 38693495 PMCID: PMC11062005 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-18692-7] [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: 11/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dementia is a leading cause of disability in people older than 65 years worldwide. However, diagnosing dementia in its earliest symptomatic stages remains challenging. This study combined specific questions from the AD8 scale with comprehensive health-related characteristics, and used machine learning (ML) to construct diagnostic models of cognitive impairment (CI). METHODS The study was based on the Shenzhen Healthy Ageing Research (SHARE) project, and we recruited 823 participants aged 65 years and older, who completed a comprehensive health assessment and cognitive function assessments. Permutation importance was used to select features. Five ML models using BalanceCascade were applied to predict CI: a support vector machine (SVM), multilayer perceptron (MLP), AdaBoost, gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT), and logistic regression (LR). An AD8 score ≥ 2 was used to define CI as a baseline. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) values were used to interpret the results of ML models. RESULTS The first and sixth items of AD8, platelets, waist circumference, body mass index, carcinoembryonic antigens, age, serum uric acid, white blood cells, abnormal electrocardiogram, heart rate, and sex were selected as predictive features. Compared to the baseline (AUC = 0.65), the MLP showed the highest performance (AUC: 0.83 ± 0.04), followed by AdaBoost (AUC: 0.80 ± 0.04), SVM (AUC: 0.78 ± 0.04), GBDT (0.76 ± 0.04). Furthermore, the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of four ML models were higher than the baseline. SHAP summary plots based on MLP showed the most influential feature on model decision for positive CI prediction was female sex, followed by older age and lower waist circumference. CONCLUSIONS The diagnostic models of CI applying ML, especially the MLP, were substantially more effective than the traditional AD8 scale with a score of ≥ 2 points. Our findings may provide new ideas for community dementia screening and to promote such screening while minimizing medical and health resources.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting the quality of life of over 10 million individuals worldwide. Early diagnosis is crucial for timely intervention and better patient outcomes. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are commonly used for early PD diagnosis due to their potential in monitoring disease progression. But traditional EEG-based methods lack exploration of brain regions that provide essential information about PD, and their performance falls short for real-time applications. To address these limitations, this study proposes a novel approach using a Time-Frequency Representation (TFR) based AlexNet Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model to explore EEG channel-based analysis and identify critical brain regions efficiently diagnosing PD from EEG data. The Wavelet Scattering Transform (WST) is employed to capture distinct temporal and spectral characteristics, while AlexNet CNN is utilized to detect complex spatial patterns at different scales, accurately identifying intricate EEG patterns associated with PD. The experiment results on two real-time EEG PD datasets: San Diego dataset and the Iowa dataset demonstrate that frontal and central brain regions, including AF4 and AFz electrodes, contribute significantly to providing more representative features compared to other regions for PD detection. The proposed architecture achieves an impressive accuracy of 99.84% for the San Diego dataset and 95.79% for the Iowa dataset, outperforming existing EEG-based PD detection methods. The findings of this research will assist to create an essential technology for efficient PD diagnosis, enhancing patient care and quality of life.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which the brain is transiently altered. Predicting outcomes in epilepsy is essential for providing feedback that can foster improved outcomes in the future. This study aimed to investigate whether applying spectral and temporal filters to resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) signals could improve the prediction of outcomes for patients taking antiseizure medication to treat temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). We collected EEG data from a total of 46 patients (divided into a seizure-free group (SF, n = 22) and a non-seizure-free group (NSF, n = 24)) with TLE and retrospectively reviewed their clinical data. We segmented spectral and temporal ranges with various time-domain features (Hjorth parameters, statistical parameters, energy, zero-crossing rate, inter-channel correlation, inter-channel phase locking value and spectral information derived from Fourier transform, Stockwell transform, and wavelet transform) and compared their performance by applying an optimal frequency strategy, an optimal duration strategy, and a combination strategy. For all time-domain features, the optimal frequency and time combination strategy showed the highest performance in distinguishing SF patients from NSF patients (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.790 ± 0.159). Furthermore, optimal performance was achieved by utilizing a feature vector derived from statistical parameters within the 39- to 41-Hz frequency band with a window length of 210 s, as evidenced by an AUC of 0.748. By identifying the optimal parameters, we improved the performance of the prediction model. These parameters can serve as standard parameters for predicting outcomes based on resting-state EEG signals.

Abstract
This study proposes a novel method that uses electroencephalography (EEG) signals to classify Parkinson's Disease (PD) and demographically matched healthy control groups. The method utilizes the reduced beta activity and amplitude decrease in EEG signals that are associated with PD. The study involved 61 PD patients and 61 demographically matched controls groups, and EEG signals were recorded in various conditions (eyes closed, eyes open, eyes both open and closed, on-drug, off-drug) from three publicly available EEG data sources (New Mexico, Iowa, and Turku). The preprocessed EEG signals were classified using features obtained from gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features through the Hankelization of EEG signals. The performance of classifiers with these novel features was evaluated using extensive cross-validations (CV) and leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) schemes. This method under 10 × 10 fold CV, the method was able to differentiate PD groups from healthy control groups using a support vector machine (SVM) with an accuracy of 92.4 ± 0.01, 85.7 ± 0.02, and 77.1 ± 0.06 for New Mexico, Iowa, and Turku datasets, respectively. After a head-to-head comparison with state-of-the-art methods, this study showed an increase in the classification of PD and controls.

Abstract
In this paper, we proposed a novel approach to diagnose and classify Parkinson's Disease (PD) using ensemble learning and 1D-PDCovNN, a novel deep learning technique. PD is a neurodegenerative disorder; early detection and correct classification are essential for better disease management. The primary aim of this study is to develop a robust approach to diagnosing and classifying PD using EEG signals. As the dataset, we have used the San Diego Resting State EEG dataset to evaluate our proposed method. The proposed method mainly consists of three stages. In the first stage, the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) method has been used as the pre-processing method to filter out the blink noises from the EEG signals. Also, the effect of the band showing motor cortex activity in the 7-30 Hz frequency band of EEG signals in diagnosing and classifying Parkinson's disease from EEG signals has been investigated. In the second stage, the Common Spatial Pattern (CSP) method has been used as the feature extraction to extract useful information from EEG signals. Finally, an ensemble learning approach, Dynamic Classifier Selection (DCS) in Modified Local Accuracy (MLA), has been employed in the third stage, consisting of seven different classifiers. As the classifier method, DCS in MLA, XGBoost, and 1D-PDCovNN classifier has been used to classify the EEG signals as the PD and healthy control (HC). We first used dynamic classifier selection to diagnose and classify Parkinson's disease (PD) from EEG signals, and promising results have been obtained. The performance of the proposed approach has been evaluated using the classification accuracy, F-1 score, kappa score, Jaccard score, ROC curve, recall, and precision values in the classification of PD with the proposed models. In the classification of PD, the combination of DCS in MLA achieved an accuracy of 99,31%. The results of this study demonstrate that the proposed approach can be used as a reliable tool for early diagnosis and classification of PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cognitive dysfunction is the most common non-motor symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD), and timely detection of a slight cognitive decline is crucial for early treatment and prevention of dementia. This study aimed to build a machine learning model based on intra- and/or intervoxel metrics extracted from diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to automatically classify PD patients without dementia into mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and normal cognition (PD-NC) groups. METHODS We enrolled PD patients without dementia (52 PD-NC and 68 PD-MCI subtypes) who were assigned to the training and test datasets in an 8:2 ratio. Four intravoxel metrics, including fractional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), axial diffusivity (AD), and radial diffusivity (RD), and two novel intervoxel metrics, local diffusion homogeneity (LDH) using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (LDHs) and Kendall's coefficient concordance (LDHk), were extracted from the DTI data. Decision tree, random forest, and eXtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) models based on individual and combined indices were built for classification, and model performance was assessed and compared via the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Finally, feature importance was evaluated using SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) values. RESULTS The XGBoost model based on a combination of the intra- and intervoxel indices achieved the best classification performance, with an accuracy of 91.67%, sensitivity of 92.86%, and AUC of 0.94 in the test dataset. SHAP analysis showed that the LDH of the brainstem and MD of the right cingulum (hippocampus) were important features. CONCLUSIONS More comprehensive information on white matter changes can be obtained by combining intra- and intervoxel DTI indices, improving classification accuracy. Furthermore, machine learning methods based on DTI indices can be used as alternatives for the automatic identification of PD-MCI at the individual level.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases in the world, killing millions of people every year. Drugs composed of anticancer peptides have been used to treat cancer with low side effects in recent years. Therefore, identifying anticancer peptides has become a focus of research. In this study, an improved anticancer peptide predictor named ACP-GBDT, based on gradient boosting decision tree (GBDT) and sequence information, is proposed. To encode the peptide sequences included in the anticancer peptide dataset, ACP-GBDT uses a merged-feature composed of AAIndex and SVMProt-188D. A GBDT is adopted to train the prediction model in ACP-GBDT. Independent testing and ten-fold cross-validation show that ACP-GBDT can effectively distinguish anticancer peptides from non-anticancer ones. The comparison results of the benchmark dataset show that ACP-GBDT is simpler and more effective than other existing anticancer peptide prediction methods.

Abstract
BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate how serum lipid levels affect epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients receiving bevacizumab treatment and to develop a model for predicting the patients’ prognosis.MethodsA total of 139 EOC patients receiving bevacizumab treatment were involved in this study. Statistical analysis was used to compare the median and average values of serum lipid level variables between the baseline and final follow-up. Additionally, a method based on machine learning was proposed to identify independent risk factors for estimating progression-free survival (PFS) in EOC patients receiving bevacizumab treatment. A PFS nomogram dividing the patients into low- and high-risk categories was created based on these independent prognostic variables. Finally, Kaplan–Meier curves and log-rank tests were utilized to perform survival analysis.ResultsAmong EOC patients involved in this study, statistical analysis of serum lipid level variables revealed a substantial increase in total cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein A1, and free fatty acids, and a significant decrease in apolipoprotein B from baseline to final follow-up. Our method identified FIGO stage, combined chemotherapy regimen, activated partial thromboplastin time, globulin, direct bilirubin, free fatty acids, blood urea nitrogen, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides as risk factors. These risk factors were then included in our nomogram as independent predictors for EOC patients. PFS was substantially different between the low-risk group (total score < 298) and the high-risk group (total score ≥ 298) according to Kaplan–Meier curves (P < 0.05).ConclusionSerum lipid levels changed variously in EOC patients receiving bevacizumab treatment. A prediction model for PFS of EOC patients receiving bevacizumab treatment was constructed, and it can be beneficial in determining the prognosis, selecting a treatment plan, and monitoring these patients’ long-term care.

Abstract
Electroencephalogram (EEG) is an economical and convenient auxiliary test to aid in the diagnosis and analysis of brain-related neurological diseases. In recent years, machine learning has shown great potential in clinical EEG abnormality detection. However, existing methods usually fail to consider the issue of feature redundancy when extracting the relevant EEG features. In addition, the importance of utilizing the patient age information in EEG detection is ignored. In this paper, a new framework is proposed for distinguishing an unknown EEG recording as either normal or abnormal by identifying different types of EEG-derived significant features. In the proposed framework, different hierarchical salient features are extracted using a time-wise multi-scale aggregation strategy, based on a selected group of statistical characteristics calculated from the optimum discrete wavelet transform coefficients. We also fuse the age information with multi-scale features for further improving discrimination. The integrated features are classified using three ensemble learning classifiers, CatBoost, LightGBM, and random forest. Experimental results show that our method with CatBoost classifier can yield superior performance vis-a-vis competing techniques, which indicates the great promise of our methodology in EEG pathology detection.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disease. At present, the early diagnosis of PD is still extremely challenging, and there is still a lack of consensus on the brain characterization of PD, and a more efficient and robust PD detection method is urgently needed. In order to further explore the features of PD based on brain activity and achieve effective detection of PD patients (including OFF and ON medications), in this study, a multi-pattern analysis based on brain activation and brain functional connectivity was performed on the brain functional activity of PD patients, and a novel PD detection model based on multi-scale convolutional neural network (MCNN) was proposed. Based on the analysis of power spectral density (PSD) and phase-locked value (PLV) features of multiple frequency bands of two independent resting-state electroencephalography (EEG) datasets, we found that there were significant differences in PSD and PLV between HCs and PD patients (including OFF and ON medications), especially in the β and γ bands, which were very effective for PD detection. Moreover, the combined use of brain activation represented by PSD and functional connectivity patterns represented by PLV can effectively improve the performance of PD detection. Furthermore, our proposed MCNN model shows great potential for automatic PD detection, with cross-validation accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve all above 99%. Our study may help to further understand the characteristics of PD and provide new ideas for future PD diagnosis based on spontaneous EEG activity.

Abstract
Alcohol dependence is a common mental disease worldwide. Excessive alcohol consumption may lead to alcoholism and many complications. In severe cases, it will lead to inhibition and paralysis of the centers of the respiratory and circulatory systems and even death. In addition, there is a lack of effective standard test procedures to detect alcoholism. EEG signals are data obtained by measuring brain changes in the cerebral cortex and can be used for the diagnosis of alcoholism. Existing diagnostic methods mainly employ machine learning techniques, which rely on human intervention to learn. In contrast, deep learning, as an end-to-end learning method, can automatically extract EEG signal features, which is more convenient. Nonetheless, there are few studies on the classification of alcohol’s EEG signals using deep learning models. Therefore, in this paper, a new deep learning method is proposed to automatically extract and classify EEG’s features. The method first adopts a multilayer discrete wavelet transform to denoise the input data. Then, the denoised data are used as input, and a convolutional neural network and bidirectional long short-term memory network are used for feature extraction. Finally, alcohol EEG signal classification is performed. The experimental results show that the method proposed in this study can be utilized to effectively diagnose patients with alcoholism, achieving a diagnostic accuracy of 99.32%, which is better than most current algorithms.
