Maipan-Uku JY, Cavus N. Forecasting tuberculosis incidence: a review of time series and machine learning models for prediction and eradication strategies. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH RESEARCH 2024:1-16. [PMID: 38916208 DOI: 10.1080/09603123.2024.2368137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024]
Abstract
Despite efforts by the World Health Organization (WHO), tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading cause of fatalities globally. This study reviews time series and machine learning models for TB incidence prediction, identifies popular algorithms, and highlights the need for further research to improve accuracy and global scope. SCOPUS, PUBMED, IEEE, Web of Science, and PRISMA were used for search and article selection from 2012 to 2023. The results revealed that ARIMA, SARIMA, ETS, GRNN, BPNN, NARNN, NNAR, and RNN are popular time series and ML algorithms adopted for TB incidence rate predictions. The inaccurate TB incidence prediction and limited global scope of prior studies suggest a need for further research. This review serves as a roadmap for the WHO to focus on regions that require more attention for TB prevention and the need for more sophisticated models for TB incidence predictions.

[PMID: 37584062 PMCID: PMC10424202 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2023.102362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Revised: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Number of cases of tuberculosis (TB) was higher than that of the national level in Kashgar, China. This study aimed to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution of TB and the relationship between TB and social factors, which can provide a reference for the prevention and control of TB. We applied spatial autocorrelation analysis to study the distribution of tuberculosis in Kashgar. We used a geographically weighted regression (GWR) model to analyze the relationship between TB and social factors. A total of 100,330 cases of TB in Kashgar from 2016 to 2021 were analyzed. The number of TB cases in Kashgar was higher in the east, lower in the west, and most elevated in the center. The highest cumulative number of cases was found in Shache county. Global Moran's I ranged from -0.212 to -0.549, and local spatial autocorrelation analysis identified four clusters. According to our analysis, the incidence of tuberculosis was negatively correlated among the regions of Kashgar, and the related causes need to be analyzed in depth in future studies. Per capita gross domestic product (GDP), number of medical institutions per capita, and total population influenced the incidence of tuberculosis in Kashgar. Based on our findings, we suggest some effective measures to reduce the risk of TB infection, such as improving the living standard, developing the regional economy, and distributing health resources rationally.

Artificial Intelligence Assisting the Early Detection of Active Pulmonary Tuberculosis From Chest X-Rays: A Population-Based Study. Front Mol Biosci 2022; 9:874475. [PMID: 35463963 PMCID: PMC9023793 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2022.874475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
As a major infectious disease, tuberculosis (TB) still poses a threat to people’s health in China. As a triage test for TB, reading chest radiography with traditional approach ends up with high inter-radiologist and intra-radiologist variability, moderate specificity and a waste of time and medical resources. Thus, this study established a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) based artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm, aiming at diagnosing TB on posteroanterior chest X-ray photographs in an effective and accurate way. Altogether, 5,000 patients with TB and 4,628 patients without TB were included in the study, totaling to 9,628 chest X-ray photographs analyzed. Splitting the radiographs into a training set (80.4%) and a testing set (19.6%), three different DCNN algorithms, including ResNet, VGG, and AlexNet, were trained to classify the chest radiographs as images of pulmonary TB or without TB. Both the diagnostic accuracy and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were used to evaluate the performance of the three AI diagnosis models. Reaching an accuracy of 96.73% and marking the precise TB regions on the radiographs, ResNet algorithm-based AI outperformed the rest models and showed excellent diagnostic ability in different clinical subgroups in the stratification analysis. In summary, the ResNet algorithm-based AI diagnosis system provided accurate TB diagnosis, which could have broad prospects in clinical application for TB diagnosis, especially in poor regions with high TB incidence.

Abstract
Brucellosis is one of the major public health problems in China, and human brucellosis represents a serious public health concern in Xinjiang and requires a prediction analysis to help making early planning and putting forward science preventive and control countermeasures. According to the characteristics of the time series of monthly reported cases of human brucellosis in Xinjiang from January 2008 to June 2020, we used seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) method and nonlinear autoregressive regression neural network (NARNN) method, which are widely prevalent and have high prediction accuracy, to construct prediction models and make prediction analysis. Finally, we established the SARIMA((1,4,5,7),0,0)(0,1,2)12 model and the NARNN model with a time lag of 5 and a hidden layer neuron of 10. Both models have high fitting performance. After comparing the accuracies of two established models, we found that the SARIMA((1,4,5,7),0,0)(0,1,2)12 model was better than the NARNN model. We used the SARIMA((1,4,5,7),0,0)(0,1,2)12 model to predict the number of monthly reported cases of human brucellosis in Xinjiang from July 2020 to December 2021, and the results showed that the fluctuation of the time series from July 2020 to December 2021 was similar to that of the last year and a half while maintaining the current prevention and control ability. The methodology applied here and its prediction values of this study could be useful to give a scientific reference for prevention and control human brucellosis.

Jin H. Prediction of direct carbon emissions of Chinese provinces using artificial neural networks. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0236685. [PMID: 33983991 PMCID: PMC8118316 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0236685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2020] [Accepted: 05/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Closely connected to human carbon emissions, global climate change is affecting regional economic and social development, natural ecological environment, food security, water supply, and many other social aspects. In a word, climate change has become a vital issue of general concern in the current society. In this study, the carbon emission data of Chinese provinces in 1999–2019 are collected and analyzed, so as to identify the carbon emission of direct consumption per 10,000 residents in each province (including each municipal city and autonomous region) and the entire nation based on population data. The Arc Geographic Information Science Engine (ArcGIS Engine) and C#.NET platform are employed to call the MATLAB neural network toolbox. A model is selected and embedded in the prediction system to develop the entire system. This study demonstrates that the carbon emissions per resident in Northern China are significantly higher than those in Southern China, with the rate of carbon emissions continuing to increase over time. Compared with other models, the Elman neural network has a higher carbon emission prediction accuracy, but with more minor errors. For instance, its accuracy and prediction performance are improved by 55.93% and 19.48%, respectively, compared with the Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN). The prediction results show that China is expected to reach its peak carbon emission in around 2025–2030. The above results are acquired based on the concept of carbon emissions and neural network model theories, supported by GIS component technology and intelligent methods. The feasibility of BPNN, Radial Basis Function (RBF) and Elman neural network models for predicting residential carbon emissions is analyzed. This study also designs a comprehensive, integrated and extensible visual intelligent platform, which is easy to implement and stable in operation. The trend and characteristics of carbon emission changes from 2027 to 2032 are explored and predicted based on the data about direct carbon emissions of Chinese provincial residents from 1999 to 2019, purposed to provide a scientific basis for the control and planning of carbon emissions.
