[PMID: 39335376 PMCID: PMC11430472 DOI: 10.3390/brainsci14090880] [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: 08/10/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Accurate and generalizable classification of brain states is essential for understanding their neural underpinnings and improving clinical diagnostics. Traditionally, functional connectivity patterns and graph-theoretic metrics have been utilized. However, cortical gradient features, which reflect global brain organization, offer a complementary approach. We hypothesized that a machine learning model integrating these three feature sets would effectively discriminate between baseline and atypical brain states across a wide spectrum of conditions, even though the underlying neural mechanisms vary. To test this, we extracted features from brain states associated with three meta-conditions including unconsciousness (NREM2 sleep, propofol deep sedation, and propofol general anesthesia), psychedelic states induced by hallucinogens (subanesthetic ketamine, lysergic acid diethylamide, and nitrous oxide), and neuropsychiatric disorders (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia). We used support vector machine with nested cross-validation to construct our models. The soft voting ensemble model marked the average balanced accuracy (average of specificity and sensitivity) of 79% (62-98% across all conditions), outperforming individual base models (70-76%). Notably, our models exhibited varying degrees of transferability across different datasets, with performance being dependent on the specific brain states and feature sets used. Feature importance analysis across meta-conditions suggests that the underlying neural mechanisms vary significantly, necessitating tailored approaches for accurate classification of specific brain states. This finding underscores the value of our feature-integrated ensemble models, which leverage the strengths of multiple feature types to achieve robust performance across a broader range of brain states. While our approach offers valuable insights into the neural signatures of different brain states, future work is needed to develop and validate even more generalizable models that can accurately classify brain states across a wider array of conditions.

Abstract
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is a significant autoimmune eye disease known for causing exophthalmos and substantial optic nerve damage. Prior investigations have solely focused on static functional MRI (fMRI) scans of the brain in TAO patients, neglecting the assessment of temporal variations in local brain activity. This study aimed to characterize alterations in dynamic regional homogeneity (dReHo) in TAO patients and differentiate between TAO patients and healthy controls using support vector machine (SVM) classification. Thirty-two patients with TAO and 32 healthy controls underwent resting-state fMRI scans. We calculated dReHo using sliding-window methods to evaluate changes in regional brain activity and compared these findings between the two groups. Subsequently, we employed SVM, a machine learning algorithm, to investigate the potential use of dReHo maps as diagnostic markers for TAO. Compared to healthy controls, individuals with active TAO demonstrated significantly higher dReHo values in the right angular gyrus, left precuneus, right inferior parietal as well as the left superior parietal gyrus. The SVM model demonstrated an accuracy ranging from 65.62 to 68.75% in distinguishing between TAO patients and healthy controls based on dReHo variability in these identified brain regions, with an area under the curve of 0.70 to 0.76. TAO patients showed increased dReHo in default mode network-related brain regions. The accuracy of classifying TAO patients and healthy controls based on dReHo was notably high. These results offer new insights for investigating the pathogenesis and clinical diagnostic classification of individuals with TAO.

Abstract
Study objectives To assess the association between self-reported sleep quality and cortical and subcortical local morphometry. Methods Sleep and neuroanatomical data from the full release of the young adult Human Connectome Project dataset were analyzed. Sleep quality was operationalized with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Local cortical and subcortical morphometry was measured with subject-specific segmentations resulting in voxelwise thickness measurements for cortex and relative (i.e., cross-sectional) local atrophy measurements for subcortical regions. Results Relative atrophy across several subcortical regions, including bilateral pallidum, striatum, and thalamus, was negatively associated with both global PSQI score and sub-components of the index related to sleep duration, efficiency, and quality. Conversely, we found no association between cortical morphometric measurements and self-reported sleep quality. Conclusions This work shows that subcortical regions such as the bilateral pallidum, thalamus, and striatum, might be interventional targets to ameliorate self-reported sleep quality.

Abstract
AIMS As people age, sleep stages and characteristics transition over time, but sleep deficits can profoundly impact health and cognitive functioning. Chronic sleep deprivation is linked to impaired attention and productivity, weakened immunity, increased risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity, and mental health disorders. Insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, hormonal changes, nocturia, neurological disorders, and life events interfere with sleep patterns and some are linked to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). This NOPIA symposium on Lifelong LUTS aimed to analyze the literature on associations between sleep and LUTS, generate ideas for future research, and explore whether there is support for the concept of lifelong LUTS in relation to changes in sleep throughout the lifespan. METHODS An international panel of experts took part in an online meeting addressing the role of lifelong LUTS in relationship to sleep and the brain organized by the NOPIA research group. The manuscript summarizes existing literature, hypotheses, future research ideas, and clinical recommendations. RESULTS Insomnia, sleep fragmentation, hyperarousal, and sensory processing disorders emerged as potential factors in the relationship between sleep and LUTS. Insomnia is often a persistent factor and may have been the initial symptom; however, it is often unrecognized and/or unaddressed in healthcare settings. By recognizing insomnia as a primary driver of various health issues, including nocturia, transitional care aims to address root causes and underlying problems earlier to initiate appropriate treatment. CONCLUSIONS A multidisciplinary approach with collaboration between healthcare professionals from various disciplines, such as urology, sleep medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, and geriatrics, is needed and should include validated measurements such as the insomnia severity index and sleep and voiding diaries. Ensuring ongoing follow-up and monitoring through transitional care is crucial for individuals with persistent sleep problems and LUTS, allowing issues that arise or fluctuate over the lifespan to be addressed.

Abstract
Due to the potential of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), they began to be increasingly used in various fields such as: environment, leisure, health, military, transport, etc. Along with increasing battery storage capacity, the UAVs began to be propulsion by Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. Failure of BLDC motors can lead to loss of control, which can cause accidents. In these conditions, it is necessary to devise methods that can find the defects of the BLDC motors in the UAVs. In this article, the authors propose a novel method to predict BLDC motor defects using machine learning. To maximize the method results, the performance of three machine learning models, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Bayesian Network (BN) in predicting the flaws of BLDC motors, have been compared.

Abstract
Sleep health is both conceptually and operationally a composite concept containing multiple domains of sleep. In line with this, high dependence and interaction across different domains of sleep health encourage a transition in sleep health research from categorical to dimensional approaches that integrate neuroscience and sleep health. Here, we seek to identify the covariance patterns between multiple sleep health domains and distributed intrinsic functional connectivity by applying a multivariate approach (partial least squares). This multivariate analysis reveals a composite sleep health dimension co-varying with connectivity patterns involving the attentional and thalamic networks and which appear relevant at the neuromolecular level. These findings are further replicated and generalized to several unseen independent datasets. Critically, the identified sleep-health related connectome shows diagnostic potential for insomnia disorder. These results together delineate a potential brain connectome biomarker for sleep health with high potential for clinical translation.

Identification of discriminative neuroimaging markers for patients on hemodialysis with insomnia: a fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuation-based machine learning analysis. BMC Psychiatry 2023; 23:9.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Insomnia is one of the common problems encountered in the hemodialysis (HD) population, but the mechanisms remain unclear. we aimed to (1) detect the spontaneous brain activity pattern in HD patients with insomnia (HDWI) by using fractional fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (fALFF) method and (2) further identify brain regions showing altered fALFF as neural markers to discriminate HDWI patients from those on hemodialysis but without insomnia (HDWoI) and healthy controls (HCs). METHOD We compared fALFF differences among HDWI subjects (28), HDWoI subjects (28) and HCs (28), and extracted altered fALFF features for the subsequent discriminative analysis. Then, we constructed a support vector machine (SVM) classifier to identify distinct neuroimaging markers for HDWI. RESULTS Compared with HCs, both HDWI and HDWoI patients exhibited significantly decreased fALFF in the bilateral calcarine (CAL), right middle occipital gyrus (MOG), left precentral gyrus (PreCG), bilateral postcentral gyrus (PoCG) and bilateral temporal middle gyrus (TMG), whereas increased fALFF in the bilateral cerebellum and right insula. Conversely, increased fALFF in the bilateral CAL/right MOG and decreased fALFF in the right cerebellum was observed in HDWI patients when compared with HDWoI patients. Moreover, the SVM classification achieved a good performance [accuracy = 82.14%, area under the curve (AUC) = 0.8202], and the consensus brain regions with the highest contributions to classification were located in the right MOG and right cerebellum. CONCLUSION Our result highlights that HDWI patients had abnormal neural activities in the right MOG and right cerebellum, which might be potential neural markers for distinguishing HDWI patients from non-insomniacs, providing further support for the pathological mechanism of HDWI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The current diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) is mainly based on the patient's self-report and clinical symptoms. Machine learning methods are used to identify MDD using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) data. However, due to large site differences in multisite rs-fMRI data and the difficulty of sample collection, most of the current machine learning studies use small sample sizes of rs-fMRI datasets to detect the alterations of functional connectivity (FC) or network attribute (NA), which may affect the reliability of the experimental results. METHODS Multisite rs-fMRI data were used to increase the size of the sample, and then we extracted the functional connectivity (FC) and network attribute (NA) features from 1611 rs-fMRI data (832 patients with MDD (MDDs) and 779 healthy controls (HCs)). ComBat algorithm was used to harmonize the data variances caused by the multisite effect, and multivariate linear regression was used to remove age and sex covariates. Two-sample t-test and wrapper-based feature selection methods (support vector machine recursive feature elimination with cross-validation (SVM-RFECV) and LightGBM's "feature_importances_" function) were used to select important features. The Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) method was used to assign the contribution of features to the best classification effect model. RESULTS The best result was obtained from the LinearSVM model trained with the 136 important features selected by SVMRFE-CV. In the nested five-fold cross-validation (consisting of an outer and an inner loop of five-fold cross-validation) of 1611 data, the model achieved the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of 68.90 %, 71.75 %, and 65.84 %, respectively. The 136 important features were tested in a small dataset and obtained excellent classification results after balancing the ratio between patients with depression and HCs. CONCLUSIONS The combined use of FC and NA features is effective for classifying MDDs and HCs. The important FC and NA features extracted from the large sample dataset have some generalization performance and may be used as a reference for the altered brain functional connectivity networks in MDD.

Abstract
ObjectiveDespite its prevalence, insomnia disorder (ID) remains poorly understood. In this study, we used machine learning to analyze the functional connectivity (FC) disturbances underlying ID, and identify potential predictors of treatment response through recurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and pharmacotherapy.Materials and methods51 adult patients with chronic insomnia and 42 healthy age and education matched controls underwent baseline anatomical T1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), resting-stage functional MRI (rsfMRI), and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). Imaging was repeated for 24 ID patients following four weeks of treatment with pharmacotherapy, with or without rTMS. A recently developed machine learning technique, Hollow Tree Super (HoTS) was used to classify subjects into ID and control groups based on their FC, and derive network and parcel-based FC features contributing to each model. The number of FC anomalies within each network was also compared between responders and non-responders using median absolute deviation at baseline and follow-up.ResultsSubjects were classified into ID and control with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) of 0.828. Baseline FC anomaly counts were higher in responders than non-responders. Response as measured by the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) was associated with a decrease in anomaly counts across all networks, while all networks showed an increase in anomaly counts when response was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Overall, responders also showed greater change in all networks, with the Default Mode Network demonstrating the greatest change.ConclusionMachine learning analysis into the functional connectome in ID may provide useful insight into diagnostic and therapeutic targets.
