Abstract
Copy number variation (CNV) is a primary source of structural variation in the human genome, leading to several disorders. Therefore, analyzing neonatal CNVs is crucial for managing CNV-related chromosomal disabilities. However, genomic waves can hinder accurate CNV analysis. To mitigate the influences of the waves, we adopted a machine learning approach and developed a new method that uses a modified log R ratio instead of the commonly used log R ratio. Validation results using samples with known CNVs demonstrated the superior performance of our method. We analyzed a total of 16,046 Korean newborn samples using the new method and identified CNVs related to 39 genetic disorders were identified in 342 cases. The most frequently detected CNV-related disorder was Joubert syndrome 4. The accuracy of our method was further confirmed by analyzing a subset of the detected results using NGS and comparing them with our results. The utilization of a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism array with wave offset was shown to be a powerful method for identifying CNVs in neonatal cases. The accurate screening and the ability to identify various disease susceptibilities offered by our new method could facilitate the identification of CNV-associated chromosomal disease etiologies.

Rapid and Accurate Diagnosis of Dermatophyte Infections Using the DendrisCHIP ® Technology. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:3430. [PMID: 37998565 PMCID: PMC10670032 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13223430] [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: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Dermatophytosis is a superficial fungal infection with an ever-increasing number of patients. Culture-based mycology remains the most commonly used diagnosis, but it takes around four weeks to identify the causative agent. Therefore, routine clinical laboratories need rapid, high throughput, and accurate species-specific analytical methods for diagnosis and therapeutic management. Based on these requirements, we investigated the feasibility of DendrisCHIP® technology as an innovative molecular diagnostic method for the identification of a subset of 13 pathogens potentially responsible for dermatophytosis infections in clinical samples. This technology is based on DNA microarray, which potentially enables the detection and discrimination of several germs in a single sample. A major originality of DendrisCHIP® technology is the use of a decision algorithm for probability presence or absence of pathogens based on machine learning methods. In this study, the diagnosis of dermatophyte infection was carried out on more than 284 isolates by conventional microbial culture and DendrisCHIP®DP, which correspond to the DendrisCHIP® carrying oligoprobes of the targeted pathogens implicated in dermatophytosis. While convergence ranging from 75 to 86% depending on the sampling procedure was obtained with both methods, the DendrisCHIP®DP proved to identify more isolates with pathogens that escaped the culture method. These results were confirmed at 86% by a third method, which was either a specific RT-PCR or genome sequencing. In addition, diagnostic results with DendrisCHIP®DP can be obtained within a day. This faster and more accurate identification of fungal pathogens with DendrisCHIP®DP enables the clinician to quickly and successfully implement appropriate antifungal treatment to prevent the spread and elimination of dermatophyte infection. Taken together, these results demonstrate that this technology is a very promising method for routine diagnosis of dermatophytosis.

The DendrisCHIP® Technology as a New, Rapid and Reliable Molecular Method for the Diagnosis of Osteoarticular Infections. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12061353. [PMID: 35741163 PMCID: PMC9222036 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12061353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoarticular infections are major disabling diseases that can occur after orthopedic implant surgery in patients. The management of these infections is very complex and painful, requiring surgical intervention in combination with long-term antibiotic treatment. Therefore, early and accurate diagnosis of the causal pathogens is essential before formulating chemotherapeutic regimens. Although culture-based microbiology remains the most common diagnosis of osteoarticular infections, its regular failure to identify the causative pathogen as well as its long-term modus operandi motivates the development of rapid, accurate, and sufficiently comprehensive bacterial species-specific diagnostics that must be easy to use by routine clinical laboratories. Based on these criteria, we reported on the feasibility of our DendrisCHIP® technology using DendrisCHIP®OA as an innovative molecular diagnostic method to diagnose pathogen bacteria implicated in osteoarticular infections. This technology is based on the principle of microarrays in which the hybridization signals between oligoprobes and complementary labeled DNA fragments from isolates queries a database of hybridization signatures corresponding to a list of pre-established bacteria implicated in osteoarticular infections by a decision algorithm based on machine learning methods. In this way, this technology combines the advantages of a PCR-based method and next-generation sequencing (NGS) while reducing the limitations and constraints of the two latter technologies. On the one hand, DendrisCHIP®OA is more comprehensive than multiplex PCR tests as it is able to detect many more germs on a single sample. On the other hand, this method is not affected by the large number of nonclinically relevant bacteria or false positives that characterize NGS, as our DendrisCHIP®OA has been designed to date to target only a subset of 20 bacteria potentially responsible for osteoarticular infections. DendrisCHIP®OA has been compared with microbial culture on more than 300 isolates and a 40% discrepancy between the two methods was found, which could be due in part but not solely to the absence or poor identification of germs detected by microbial culture. We also demonstrated the reliability of our technology in correctly identifying bacteria in isolates by showing a convergence (i.e., same bacteria identified) with NGS superior to 55% while this convergence was only 32% between NGS and microbial culture data. Finally, we showed that our technology can provide a diagnostic result in less than one day (technically, 5 h), which is comparatively faster and less labor intensive than microbial cultures and NGS.

Abstract
Point-of-care (POC) molecular diagnostics for clinical microbiology and virology has primarily focused on the detection of a single pathogen. More recently, it has transitioned into a comprehensive syndromic approach that employs multiplex capabilities, including the simultaneous detection of two or more pathogens. Multiplex POC tests provide higher accuracy to for actionable decisionmaking in critical care, which leads to pathogen-specific treatment and standardized usages of antibiotics that help prevent unnecessary processes. In addition, these tests can be simple enough to operate at the primary care level and in remote settings where there is no laboratory infrastructure. This review focuses on state-of-the-art multiplexed molecular point-of-care tests (POCT) for infectious diseases and efforts to overcome their limitations, especially related to inadequate throughput for the identification of syndromic diseases. We also discuss promising and imperative clinical POC approaches, as well as the possible hurdles of their practical applications as front-line diagnostic tests.

Abstract
Bacterial acute pneumonia is responsible for an extremely large burden of death worldwide and diagnosis is paramount in the management of patients. While multidrug-resistant bacteria is one of the biggest health threats in the coming decades, clinicians urgently need access to novel diagnostic technologies. In this review, we will first present the already existing and largely used techniques that allow identifying pathogen-associated pneumonia. Then, we will discuss the latest and most promising technological advances that are based on connected technologies (artificial intelligence-based and Omics-based) or rapid tests, to improve the management of lung infections caused by pathogenic bacteria. We also aim to highlight the mutual benefits of fundamental and clinical studies for a better understanding of lung infections and their more efficient diagnostic management.

Abstract
Infectious diseases are one of the main global public health risks, predominantly caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites. The control of infections is founded on three main pillars: prevention, treatment, and diagnosis. However, the appearance of microbial resistance has challenged traditional strategies and demands new approaches. Dendrimers are a type of polymeric nanoparticles whose nanometric size, multivalency, biocompatibility, and structural perfection offer boundless possibilities in multiple biomedical applications. This review provides the reader a general overview about the uses of dendrimers and dendritic materials in the treatment, prevention, and diagnosis of highly prevalent infectious diseases, and their advantages compared to traditional approaches. Examples of dendrimers as antimicrobial agents per se, as nanocarriers of antimicrobial drugs, as well as their uses in gene transfection, in vaccines or as contrast agents in imaging assays are presented. Despite the need to address some challenges in order to be used in the clinic, dendritic materials appear as an innovative tool with a brilliant future ahead in the clinical management of infectious diseases and many other health issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Machine learning (ML) allows the analysis of complex and large data sets and has the potential to improve health care. The clinical microbiology laboratory, at the interface of clinical practice and diagnostics, is of special interest for the development of ML systems. AIMS This narrative review aims to explore the current use of ML In clinical microbiology. SOURCES References for this review were identified through searches of MEDLINE/PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, biorXiv, arXiV, ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore Digital Library up to November 2019. CONTENT We found 97 ML systems aiming to assist clinical microbiologists. Overall, 82 ML systems (85%) targeted bacterial infections, 11 (11%) parasitic infections, nine (9%) viral infections and three (3%) fungal infections. Forty ML systems (41%) focused on microorganism detection, identification and quantification, 36 (37%) evaluated antimicrobial susceptibility, and 21 (22%) targeted the diagnosis, disease classification and prediction of clinical outcomes. The ML systems used very diverse data sources: 21 (22%) used genomic data of microorganisms, 19 (20%) microbiota data obtained by metagenomic sequencing, 19 (20%) analysed microscopic images, 17 (18%) spectroscopy data, eight (8%) targeted gene sequencing, six (6%) volatile organic compounds, four (4%) photographs of bacterial colonies, four (4%) transcriptome data, three (3%) protein structure, and three (3%) clinical data. Most systems used data from high-income countries (n = 71, 73%) but a significant number used data from low- and middle-income countries (n = 36, 37%). Performance measures were reported for the 97 ML systems, but no article described their use in clinical practice or reported impact on processes or clinical outcomes. IMPLICATIONS In clinical microbiology, ML has been used with various data sources and diverse practical applications. The evaluation and implementation processes represent the main gap in existing ML systems, requiring a focus on their interpretability and potential integration into real-world settings.
