Abstract
BACKGROUND The successful treatment and improvement of acute kidney injury (AKI) depend on early-stage diagnosis. However, no study has differentiated between the three stages of AKI and non-AKI patients following heart surgery. This study will fill this gap in the literature and help to improve kidney disease management in the future. METHODS In this study, we applied Raman spectroscopy (RS) to uncover unique urine biomarkers distinguishing heart surgery patients with and without AKI. Given the amplified risk of renal complications post-cardiac surgery, this approach is of paramount importance. Further, we employed the partial least squares-support vector machine (PLS-SVM) model to distinguish between all three stages of AKI and non-AKI patients. RESULTS We noted significant metabolic disparities among the groups. Each AKI stage presented a distinct metabolic profile: stage 1 had elevated uric acid and reduced creatinine levels; stage 2 demonstrated increased tryptophan and nitrogenous compounds with diminished uric acid; stage 3 displayed the highest neopterin and the lowest creatinine levels. We utilized the PLS-SVM model for discriminant analysis, achieving over 90% identification rate in distinguishing AKI patients, encompassing all stages, from non-AKI subjects. CONCLUSIONS This study characterizes the incidence and risk factors for AKI after cardiac surgery. The unique spectral information garnered from this study can also pave the way for developing an in vivo RS method to detect and monitor AKI effectively.

Abstract
Introduction Oral cancer, a predominant malignancy in developing nations, represents a global health challenge with a five-year survival rate below 50%. Nonetheless, substantial reductions in both its incidence and mortality rates can be achieved through early detection and appropriate treatment. Crucial to these treatment plans and prognosis predictions is the identification of the pathological type of oral cancer. Methods Toward this end, fiber-optic Raman spectroscopy emerges as an effective tool. This study combines Raman spectroscopy technology with deep learning algorithms to develop a portable intelligent prototype for oral case analysis. We propose, for the first time, a multi-task network (MTN) Raman spectroscopy classification model that utilizes a shared backbone network to simultaneously achieve different clinical staging and histological grading diagnoses. Results The developed model demonstrated accuracy rates of 94.88%, 94.57%, and 94.34% for tumor staging, lymph node staging, and histological grading, respectively. Its sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy compare closely with the gold standard: routine histopathological examination. Discussion Thus, this prototype proposed in this study has great potential for rapid, non-invasive, and label-free pathological diagnosis of oral cancer.

Biomedicines 2023; 11:1984. [PMID: 37509623 PMCID: PMC10377260 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11071984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Accurate identification of tissue types in surgical margins is essential for ensuring the complete removal of cancerous cells and minimizing the risk of recurrence. The objective of this study was to explore the clinical utility of Raman spectroscopy for the detection of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in both tumor and healthy tissues obtained from surgical resection specimens during surgery. This study enrolled a total of 64 patients diagnosed with OSCC. Among the participants, approximately 50% of the cases were classified as the most advanced stage, referred to as T4. Raman experiments were conducted on cryopreserved tissue samples collected from patients diagnosed with OSCC. Prominent spectral regions containing key oral biomarkers were analyzed using the partial least squares-support vector machine (PLS-SVM) method, which is a powerful multivariate analysis technique for discriminant analysis. This approach effectively differentiated OSCC tissue from non-OSCC tissue, achieving a sensitivity of 95.7% and a specificity of 93.3% with 94.7% accuracy. In the current study, Raman analysis of fresh tissue samples showed that OSCC tissues contained significantly higher levels of nucleic acids, proteins, and several amino acids compared to the adjacent healthy tissues. In addition to differentiating between OSCC and non-OSCC tissues, we have also explored the potential of Raman spectroscopy in classifying different stages of OSCC. Specifically, we have investigated the classification of T1, T2, T3, and T4 stages based on their Raman spectra. These findings emphasize the importance of considering both stage and subsite factors in the application of Raman spectroscopy for OSCC analysis. Future work will focus on expanding our tissue sample collection to better comprehend how different subsites influence the Raman spectra of OSCC at various stages, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy and aid in identifying tumor-free margins during surgical interventions.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common syndrome characterized by various etiologies and pathophysiologic processes that deteriorate kidney function. The aim of this study is to identify potential biomarkers in the urine of non-acute kidney injury (non-AKI) and AKI patients through Raman spectroscopy (RS) to predict the advancement in complications and kidney failure. Selected spectral regions containing prominent peaks of renal biomarkers were subjected to partial least squares linear discriminant analysis (PLS-LDA). This discriminant analysis classified the AKI patients from non-AKI subjects with a sensitivity and specificity of 97% and 100%, respectively. In this study, the RS measurements of urine specimens demonstrated that AKI had significantly higher nitrogenous compounds, porphyrin, tryptophan and neopterin when compared with non-AKI. This study’s specific spectral information can be used to design an in vivo RS approach for the detection of AKI diseases.

Abstract
Background Raman spectroscopy (RS) has shown great potential in the diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Although many single-central original studies have been carried out, it is difficult to use RS in real clinical settings based on the current limited evidence. Herein, we conducted this meta-analysis of diagnostic studies to evaluate the overall performance of RS in OSCC diagnosis. Methods We systematically searched databases including Medline, Embase, and Web of Science for studies from January 2000 to March 2022. Data of true positives, true negatives, false positives, and false negatives were extracted from the included studies to calculate the pooled sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive and negative likelihood ratios (LRs), and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) with 95% confidence intervals, then we plotted the summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC) to evaluate the overall performance of RS. Quality assessments and publication bias were evaluated by Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QUADAS-2) checklist in Review Manager 5.3. The statistical parameters were calculated with StataSE version 12 and MetaDiSc 1.4. Results In total, 13 studies were included in our meta-analysis. The pooled diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of RS in OSCC were 0.89 (95% CI, 0.85–0.92) and 0.84 (95% CI, 0.78–0.89). The AUC of SROC curve was 0.93 (95% CI, 0.91–0.95). Conclusions RS is a non-invasive diagnostic technology with high specificity and sensitivity for detecting OSCC and has the potential to be applied clinically.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical potential of Raman spectroscopy (RS) in detecting oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in tumor and healthy tissues in surgical resection specimens during surgery. Raman experiments were performed on cryopreserved specimens from patients with OSCC. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed based on the fingerprint region (700–1800 cm−1) of the Raman spectra. One hundred thirty-one ex-vivo Raman experiments were performed on 131 surgical resection specimens obtained from 67 patients. The principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square (PLS) methods with linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were applied on an independent validation dataset. Both models were able to differentiate between the tissue types, but PLS–LDA showed 100% accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. In this study, Raman measurements of fresh resection tissue specimens demonstrated that OSCC had significantly higher nucleic acid, protein, and several amino acid contents than adjacent healthy tissues. The specific spectral information obtained in this study can be used to develop an in vivo Raman spectroscopic method for the tumor-free resection boundary during surgery.

Band-Selection of a Portal LED-Induced Autofluorescence Multispectral Imager to Improve Oral Cancer Detection. SENSORS 2021; 21:s21093219. [PMID: 34066507 PMCID: PMC8125388 DOI: 10.3390/s21093219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 05/01/2021] [Accepted: 05/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
This aim of this study was to find effective spectral bands for the early detection of oral cancer. The spectral images in different bands were acquired using a self-made portable light-emitting diode (LED)-induced autofluorescence multispectral imager equipped with 365 and 405 nm excitation LEDs, emission filters with center wavelengths of 470, 505, 525, 532, 550, 595, 632, 635, and 695 nm, and a color image sensor. The spectral images of 218 healthy points in 62 healthy participants and 218 tumor points in 62 patients were collected in the ex vivo trials at China Medical University Hospital. These ex vivo trials were similar to in vivo because the spectral images of anatomical specimens were immediately acquired after the on-site tumor resection. The spectral images associated with red, blue, and green filters correlated with and without nine emission filters were quantized by four computing method, including summated intensity, the highest number of the intensity level, entropy, and fractional dimension. The combination of four computing methods, two excitation light sources with two intensities, and 30 spectral bands in three experiments formed 264 classifiers. The quantized data in each classifier was divided into two groups: one was the training group optimizing the threshold of the quantized data, and the other was validating group tested under this optimized threshold. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of each classifier were derived from these tests. To identify the influential spectral bands based on the area under the region and the testing results, a single-layer network learning process was used. This was compared to conventional rules-based approaches to show its superior and faster performance. Consequently, four emission filters with the center wavelengths of 470, 505, 532, and 550 nm were selected by an AI-based method and verified using a rule-based approach. The sensitivities of six classifiers using these emission filters were more significant than 90%. The average sensitivity of these was about 96.15%, the average specificity was approximately 69.55%, and the average accuracy was about 82.85%.
