Explainable machine learning in outcome prediction of high-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Aging (Albany NY) 2024; 16:4654-4669. [PMID: 38431285 PMCID: PMC10968679 DOI: 10.18632/aging.205621] [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: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Accurate prognostic prediction in patients with high-grade aneruysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is essential for personalized treatment. In this study, we developed an interpretable prognostic machine learning model for high-grade aSAH patients using SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP). METHODS A prospective registry cohort of high-grade aSAH patients was collected in one single-center hospital. The endpoint in our study is a 12-month follow-up outcome. The dataset was divided into training and validation sets in a 7:3 ratio. Machine learning algorithms, including Logistic regression model (LR), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), were employed to develop a prognostic prediction model for high-grade aSAH. The optimal model was selected for SHAP analysis. RESULTS Among the 421 patients, 204 (48.5%) exhibited poor prognosis. The RF model demonstrated superior performance compared to LR (AUC = 0.850, 95% CI: 0.783-0.918), SVM (AUC = 0.862, 95% CI: 0.799-0.926), and XGBoost (AUC = 0.850, 95% CI: 0.783-0.917) with an AUC of 0.867 (95% CI: 0.806-0 .929). Primary prognostic features identified through SHAP analysis included higher World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) grade, higher modified Fisher score (mFS) and advanced age, were found to be associated with 12-month unfavorable outcome, while the treatment of coiling embolization for aSAH drove the prediction towards favorable prognosis. Additionally, the SHAP force plot visualized individual prognosis predictions. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated the potential of machine learning techniques in prognostic prediction for high-grade aSAH patients. The features identified through SHAP analysis enhance model interpretability and provide guidance for clinical decision-making.

[PMID: 38404730 PMCID: PMC10883845 DOI: 10.5582/irdr.2023.01111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
With the increasing application of artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine and healthcare, AI technologies have the potential to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of rare diseases. Presently, existing research predominantly focuses on the areas of diagnosis and prognosis, with relatively fewer studies dedicated to the domain of treatment. The purpose of this review is to systematically analyze the existing literature on the application of AI in the treatment of rare diseases. We searched three databases for related studies, and established criteria for the selection of retrieved articles. From the 407 unique articles identified across the three databases, 13 articles from 8 countries were selected, which investigated 10 different rare diseases. The most frequently studied rare disease group was rare neurologic diseases (n = 5/13, 38.46%). Among the four identified therapeutic domains, 7 articles (53.85%) focused on drug research, with 5 specifically focused on drug discovery (drug repurposing, the discovery of drug targets and small-molecule inhibitors), 1 on pre-clinical studies (drug interactions), and 1 on clinical studies (information strength assessment of clinical parameters). Across the selected 13 articles, we identified total 32 different algorithms, with random forest (RF) being the most commonly used (n = 4/32, 12.50%). The predominant purpose of AI in the treatment of rare diseases in these articles was to enhance the performance of analytical tasks (53.33%). The most common data source was database data (35.29%), with 5 of these studies being in the field of drug research, utilizing classic databases such as RCSB, PDB and NCBI. Additionally, 47.37% of the articles highlighted the existing challenge of data scarcity or small sample sizes.

Ameliorative Effect of Ethanolic Extract of Moringa oleifera Leaves in Combination with Curcumin against PTZ-Induced Kindled Epilepsy in Rats: In Vivo and In Silico. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1223. [PMID: 37765031 PMCID: PMC10534968 DOI: 10.3390/ph16091223] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The ameliorative effect of ethanolic extract of M. oleifera (MOEE) leaves in combination with curcumin against seizures, cognitive impairment, and oxidative stress in the molecular docking of PTZ-induced kindled rats was performed to predict the potential phytochemical effects of MOEE and curcumin against epilepsy. The effect of pretreatment with leaves of M. oleifera ethanolic extracts (MOEE) (250 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg, orally), curcumin (200 mg/kg and 300 mg/kg, orally), valproic acid used as a standard (100 mg/kg), and the combined effect of MOEE (250 mg/kg) and curcumin (200 mg/kg) at a low dose on Pentylenetetrazole was used for (PTZ)-induced kindling For the development of kindling, individual Wistar rats (male) were injected with pentyletetrazole (40 mg/kg, i.p.) on every alternate day. Molecular docking was performed by the Auto Dock 4.2 tool to merge the ligand orientations in the binding cavity. From the RCSB website, the crystal structure of human glutathione reductase (PDB ID: 3DK9) was obtained. Curcumin and M. oleifera ethanolic extracts (MOEE) showed dose-dependent effects. The combined effects of MOEE and curcumin leaves significantly improved the seizure score and decreased the number of myoclonic jerks compared with a standard dose of valproic acid. PTZ kindling induced significant oxidative stress and cognitive impairment, which was reversed by pretreatment with MOEE and curcumin. Glutathione reductase (GR) is an enzyme that plays a key role in the cellular control of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Therefore, activating GR can uplift antioxidant properties, which leads to the inhibition of ROS-induced cell death in the brain. The combination of the ethanolic extract of M. oleifera (MOEE) leaves and curcumin has shown better results than any other combination for antiepileptic effects by virtue of antioxidant effects. As per the docking study, chlorogenic acid and quercetin treated with acombination of curcumin have much more potential.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods are currently widely employed in medicine and healthcare. A PubMed search returns more than 100,000 articles on these topics published between 2018 and 2022 alone. Notwithstanding several recent reviews in various subfields of AI and ML in medicine, we have yet to see a comprehensive review around the methods' use in longitudinal analysis and prediction of an individual patient's health status within a personalized disease pathway. This review seeks to fill that gap. After an overview of the AI and ML methods employed in this field and of specific medical applications of models of this type, the review discusses the strengths and limitations of current studies and looks ahead to future strands of research in this field. We aim to enable interested readers to gain a detailed impression of the research currently available and accordingly plan future work around predictive models for deterioration in health status.

Abstract
Drugs and various medical substances have been used for many decades to diagnose or treat diseases. Procedures like surgery and anesthesia (either local or general) use different pharmacological products during these events. In most of the cases, the procedure is safe and the physician performs the technique without incidents. Although they are safe for use, these substances (including drugs) may have adverse effects, varying from mild ones to life-threatening reactions in a minority of patients. Artificial intelligence may be a useful tool in approximating the risk of anaphylaxis before undertaking a medical procedure. This material presents these undesirable responses produced by medical products from a multidisciplinary point of view. Moreover, we present a proof of concept for using artificial intelligence as a possible guardship against intraoperative anaphylaxis.

Abstract
Background: Some previous studies showed abnormal pathological and vascular changes in the retina of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, whether retinal microvascular density is a diagnostic indicator for AD remains unclear. Objective: This study evaluated the macular vessel density (m-VD) in the superficial capillary plexus and fovea avascular zone (FAZ) area in AD, explored their correlations with clinical parameters, and finally confirmed an optimal machine learning model for AD diagnosis. Methods: 77 patients with AD and 145 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled. The m-VD and the FAZ area were measured using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in all participants. Additionally, AD underwent neuropsychological assessment, brain magnetic resonance imaging scan, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker detection, and APOE ɛ4 genotyping. Finally, the performance of machine learning algorithms based on the OCTA measurements was evaluated by Python programming language. Results: The m-VD was noticeably decreased in AD compared with HCs. Moreover, m-VD in the fovea, superior inner, inferior inner, nasal inner subfields, and the whole inner ring declined significantly in mild AD, while it was more serious in moderate/severe AD. However, no significant difference in the FAZ was noted between AD and HCs. Furthermore, we found that m-VD exhibited a significant correlation with cognitive function, medial temporal atrophy and Fazekas scores, and APOE ɛ4 genotypes. No significant correlations were observed between m-VD and CSF biomarkers. Furthermore, results revealed the Adaptive boosting algorithm exhibited the best diagnostic performance for AD. Conclusion: Macular vascular density could serve as a diagnostic biomarker for AD.

Abstract
Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is often heralded as a potential disruptor that will transform the practice of medicine. The amount of data collected and available in health care, coupled with advances in computational power, has contributed to advances in AI and an exponential growth of publications. However, the development of AI applications does not guarantee their adoption into routine practice. There is a risk that despite the resources invested, benefits for patients, staff, and society will not be realized if AI implementation is not better understood. Objective The aim of this study was to explore how the implementation of AI in health care practice has been described and researched in the literature by answering 3 questions: What are the characteristics of research on implementation of AI in practice? What types and applications of AI systems are described? What characteristics of the implementation process for AI systems are discernible? Methods A scoping review was conducted of MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases to identify empirical studies of AI implementation in health care since 2011, in addition to snowball sampling of selected reference lists. Using Rayyan software, we screened titles and abstracts and selected full-text articles. Data from the included articles were charted and summarized. Results Of the 9218 records retrieved, 45 (0.49%) articles were included. The articles cover diverse clinical settings and disciplines; most (32/45, 71%) were published recently, were from high-income countries (33/45, 73%), and were intended for care providers (25/45, 56%). AI systems are predominantly intended for clinical care, particularly clinical care pertaining to patient-provider encounters. More than half (24/45, 53%) possess no action autonomy but rather support human decision-making. The focus of most research was on establishing the effectiveness of interventions (16/45, 35%) or related to technical and computational aspects of AI systems (11/45, 24%). Focus on the specifics of implementation processes does not yet seem to be a priority in research, and the use of frameworks to guide implementation is rare. Conclusions Our current empirical knowledge derives from implementations of AI systems with low action autonomy and approaches common to implementations of other types of information systems. To develop a specific and empirically based implementation framework, further research is needed on the more disruptive types of AI systems being implemented in routine care and on aspects unique to AI implementation in health care, such as building trust, addressing transparency issues, developing explainable and interpretable solutions, and addressing ethical concerns around privacy and data protection.

Challenges Faced by Clinicians in the Personalized Treatment Planning: A Literature Review and the First Results of the Russian National Cancer Program. Crit Care Res Pract 2021; 2021:6649771. [PMID: 34603796 PMCID: PMC8483928 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6649771] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Advances in cancer molecular profiling have enabled the development of more effective approaches to the diagnosis and personalized treatment of tumors. However, treatment planning has become more labor intensive, requiring hours or even days of clinician effort to optimize an individual patient case in a trial-and-error manner. Lessons learned from the world cancer programs provide insights into ways to develop approaches for the treatment strategy definition which can be introduced into clinical practice. This article highlights the variety of breakthroughs in patients' cancer treatment and some challenges that this field faces now in Russia. In this report, we consider the key characteristics for planning an optimal clinical treatment regimen and which should be included in the algorithm of clinical decision support systems. We discuss the perspectives of implementing artificial intelligence-based systems in cancer treatment planning in Russia.

Abstract
Motivation Anti-cancer drug sensitivity prediction using deep learning models for individual cell line is a significant challenge in personalized medicine. Recently developed REFINED (REpresentation of Features as Images with NEighborhood Dependencies) CNN (Convolutional Neural Network)-based models have shown promising results in improving drug sensitivity prediction. The primary idea behind REFINED-CNN is representing high dimensional vectors as compact images with spatial correlations that can benefit from CNN architectures. However, the mapping from a high dimensional vector to a compact 2D image depends on the a priori choice of the distance metric and projection scheme with limited empirical procedures guiding these choices. Results In this article, we consider an ensemble of REFINED-CNN built under different choices of distance metrics and/or projection schemes that can improve upon a single projection based REFINED-CNN model. Results, illustrated using NCI60 and NCI-ALMANAC databases, demonstrate that the ensemble approaches can provide significant improvement in prediction performance as compared to individual models. We also develop the theoretical framework for combining different distance metrics to arrive at a single 2D mapping. Results demonstrated that distance-averaged REFINED-CNN produced comparable performance as obtained from stacking REFINED-CNN ensemble but with significantly lower computational cost.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to replicate human intelligence to perform prediction and complex decision making in health care and has significantly increased its presence and relevance in various tasks and applications in dentistry, especially endodontics. The aim of this review was to discuss the current endodontic applications of AI and potential future directions. METHODS Articles that have addressed the applications of AI in endodontics were evaluated for information pertinent to include in this narrative review. RESULTS AI models (eg, convolutional neural networks and/or artificial neural networks) have demonstrated various applications in endodontics such as studying root canal system anatomy, detecting periapical lesions and root fractures, determining working length measurements, predicting the viability of dental pulp stem cells, and predicting the success of retreatment procedures. The future of this technology was discussed in light of helping with scheduling, treating patients, drug-drug interactions, diagnosis with prognostic values, and robotic-assisted endodontic surgery. CONCLUSIONS AI demonstrated accuracy and precision in terms of detection, determination, and disease prediction in endodontics. AI can contribute to the improvement of diagnosis and treatment that can lead to an increase in the success of endodontic treatment outcomes. However, it is still necessary to further verify the reliability, applicability, and cost-effectiveness of AI models before transferring these models into day-to-day clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We present a heuristic solution method to the problem of choosing hospital-wide antimicrobial treatments that minimize the cumulative infected patient-days in the long run in a health care facility. METHODS Our solution method is a rollout algorithm. We rely on the stochastic version of a compartmental model to describe the spread of an infecting organism in the health care facility and the emergence and spread of resistance to two drugs. We assume that the parameters of the model are known. Treatments are chosen at the beginning of each period based on the count of patients with each health status, and on stochastic simulations of the future emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance. The same treatment is then administered to all patients, including uninfected patients, during the period and cannot be adjusted until the next period. RESULTS In our simulations, our algorithm allows to reduce the average cumulative infected patient-days over two years by 47.0% compared to the best standard therapy, and by 32.2% compared to a similar heuristic algorithm not using surveillance data (significantly at the 95% threshold). CONCLUSION Our heuristic solution method is simple yet flexible. We explain how it can be used either to perform online optimization, or to produce data for quantitative analysis. Its performance is illustrated using a relatively simple infectious disease transmission model, but it is compatible with more advanced epidemiological models.

Comput Struct Biotechnol J 2021; 19:2318-2328. [PMID: 33995923 PMCID: PMC8105181 DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2021.04.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2020] [Revised: 04/09/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
An appropriate therapeutic index is crucial for drug discovery and development since narrow therapeutic index (NTI) drugs with slight dosage variation may induce severe adverse drug reactions or potential treatment failure. To date, the shared characteristics underlying the targets of NTI drugs have been explored by several studies, which have been applied to identify potential drug targets. However, the association between the drug therapeutic index and the related disease has not been dissected, which is important for revealing the NTI drug mechanism and optimizing drug design. Therefore, in this study, two classes of disease (cancers and cardiovascular disorders) with the largest number of NTI drugs were selected, and the target property of the corresponding NTI drugs was analyzed. By calculating the biological system profiles and human protein–protein interaction (PPI) network properties of drug targets and adopting an AI-based algorithm, differentiated features between two diseases were discovered to reveal the distinct underlying mechanisms of NTI drugs in different diseases. Consequently, ten shared features and four unique features were identified for both diseases to distinguish NTI from NNTI drug targets. These computational discoveries, as well as the newly found features, suggest that in the clinical study of avoiding narrow therapeutic index in those diseases, the ability of target to be a hub and the efficiency of target signaling in the human PPI network should be considered, and it could thus provide novel guidance in the drug discovery and clinical research process and help to estimate the drug safety of cancer and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Empirical antimicrobial prescription strategies have been proposed to counteract the selection of resistant pathogenic strains. The respective merits of such strategies have been debated. Rather than comparing a finite number of policies, we take an optimization approach and propose a solution to the problem of finding an empirical therapy policy in a health care facility that minimizes the cumulative infected patient-days over a given time horizon. METHODS We assume that the parameters of the model are known and that when the policy is implemented, all patients receive the same treatment at a given time. We model the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance at the population level with the stochastic version of a compartmental model. The model features two drugs and the possibility of double resistance. Our solution method is a rollout algorithm. RESULTS In our example, the optimal policy computed with this method allows to reduce the average cumulative infected patient-days over two years by 22% compared to the best standard therapy. Considering regularity constraints, we could derive a policy with a fixed period and a performance close to that of the optimal policy. The average cumulative infected patient-days over two years obtained with the optimal policy is 6% lower (significantly at the 95% threshold) than that obtained with the fixed period policy. CONCLUSION Our results illustrate the performance of a highly flexible solution method that will contribute to the development of implementable empirical therapy policies.

microRNAs Tune Oxidative Stress in Cancer Therapeutic Tolerance and Resistance. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20236094.

Abstract
Relapsed disease following first-line therapy remains one of the central problems in cancer management, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, growth factor receptor-based targeted therapy, and immune checkpoint-based immunotherapy. Cancer cells develop therapeutic resistance through both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms including cellular heterogeneity, drug tolerance, bypassing alternative signaling pathways, as well as the acquisition of new genetic mutations. Reactive oxygen species (ROSs) are byproducts originated from cellular oxidative metabolism. Recent discoveries have shown that a disabled antioxidant program leads to therapeutic resistance in several types of cancers. ROSs are finely tuned by dysregulated microRNAs, and vice versa. However, mechanisms of a crosstalk between ROSs and microRNAs in regulating therapeutic resistance are not clear. Here, we summarize how the microRNA-ROS network modulates cancer therapeutic tolerance and resistance and direct new vulnerable targets against drug tolerance and resistance for future applications.
