Abstract
Machine learning methods are widely used within the medical field to enhance prediction. However, little is known about the reliability and efficacy of these models to predict long-term medical outcomes such as blood pressure using lifestyle factors, such as diet. The authors assessed whether machine-learning techniques could accurately predict hypertension risk using nutritional information. A cross-sectional study using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between January 2017 and March 2020. XGBoost was used as the machine-learning model of choice in this study due to its increased performance relative to other common methods within medical studies. Model prediction metrics (e.g., AUROC, Balanced Accuracy) were used to measure overall model efficacy, covariate Gain statistics (percentage each covariate contributes to the overall prediction) and SHapely Additive exPlanations (SHAP, method to visualize each covariate) were used to provide explanations to machine-learning output and increase the transparency of this otherwise cryptic method. Of a total of 9650 eligible patients, the mean age was 41.02 (SD = 22.16), 4792 (50%) males, 4858 (50%) female, 3407 (35%) White patients, 2567 (27%) Black patients, 2108 (22%) Hispanic patients, and 981 (10%) Asian patients. From evaluation of model gain statistics, age was found to be the single strongest predictor of hypertension, with a gain of 53.1%. Additionally, demographic factors such as poverty and Black race were also strong predictors of hypertension, with gain of 4.33% and 4.18%, respectively. Nutritional Covariates contributed 37% to the overall prediction: Sodium, Caffeine, Potassium, and Alcohol intake being significantly represented within the model. Machine Learning can be used to predict hypertension.

Clin Exp Med 2023; 23:2357-2368. [PMID: 36413273 DOI: 10.1007/s10238-022-00944-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Accepted: 11/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Radiomics has been a promising imaging biomarker for many malignant diseases. We developed a novel radiomics strategy that incorporating radiomics features extracted from dual-view mammograms and clinical parameters for identifying benign and malignant breast lesions, and validated whether the radiomics assessment could improve the accurate diagnosis of breast cancer. A total of 380 patients (mean age, 52 ± 7 years) with 621 breast lesions utilizing mammograms on craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique (MLO) views were randomly allocated into the training (n = 486) and testing (n = 135) sets in this retrospective study. A total of 1184 and 2368 radiomics features were extracted from single-position region of interest (ROI) and position-paired ROI, separately. Clinical parameters were then combined for better prediction. Recursive feature elimination and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator methods were applied to select optimal predictive features. Random forest was used to conduct the predictive model. Intraclass correlation coefficient test was used to assess repeatability and reproducibility of features. After preprocessing, 467 radiomics features and clinical parameters remained in the single-view and dual-view models. The performance and significance of models were quantified by the area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. The correlation analysis between variables was evaluated using the correlation ratio and Pearson correlation coefficient. The model using a combination of dual-view radiomics and clinical parameters achieved a favorable performance (AUC: 0.804, 95% CI: 0.668-0.916), outperformed single-view model and model without clinical parameters. Incorporating with radiomics features of dual-view (CC&MLO) mammogram, age, breast density, and type of suspicious lesions can provide a noninvasive approach to evaluate the malignancy of breast lesions and facilitate clinical decision-making.

[PMID: 36533630 PMCID: PMC10277313 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Revised: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although radiomics features of the left ventricular wall have been used to assess cardiac diseases, radiomics features of the cardiac blood pool have been relatively ignored. PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that cine MRI-derived radiomics features of the cardiac blood pool are associated with cardiac function and motion. STUDY TYPE Retrospective. POPULATION A total of 26 healthy volunteers (51.2 ± 15.6 years; 17 males). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE A 1.5 T/balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP). ASSESSMENT The radiomics features (107 features in seven classes) of the blood pool of the left/right ventricle/atrium (LV/RV/LA/RA) were extracted on four-chamber cine images (25 phases). Conventional cardiac function parameters (volumes, ejection fraction [EF] and longitudinal strain) were assessed in each cardiac chamber. Intraobserver- and interobserver agreements of radiomics features of all chambers acquired at all phases were assessed, as well as scan-rescan agreement in a subset of 13 volunteers. STATISTICAL TESTS Pearson correlation coefficients (r) were used to assess the associations between peak values of radiomics features and end-diastolic (or maximal) volume, end-systolic (or minimal) volume, EF, and longitudinal strain of corresponding chambers. Good intraobserver, interobserver, and scan-rescan agreements for radiomics features acquired were defined as intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) > 0.7 or coefficient of variation (CoV) < 20%. RESULTS Most radiomics features of the blood pool varied periodically throughout the cardiac cycle. Peak values of chamber-specific blood pool radiomics features were correlated with traditional cardiac function and motion indices of corresponding chambers (r: 0.4-0.87). Ninety-three (87%), 86 (80%), and 73 (68%) radiomics features demonstrated good intraobserver, interobserver, and scan-rescan reproducibility, respectively. CONCLUSION Cine MRI-derived radiomics features within LV/RV/LA/RA are associated with traditional cardiac function and motion indices of corresponding chambers and may have the potential to become novel quantitative imaging biomarkers in cardiovascular medicine. EVIDENCE LEVEL 3. TECHNICAL EFFICACY 1.

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI) Applications in Patients with Chest Pain in the Emergency Department: A Narrative Review. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:2667. [PMID: 37627926 PMCID: PMC10453831 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13162667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
CMRI is the exclusive imaging technique capable of identifying myocardial edema, endomyocardial fibrosis, pericarditis accompanied by pericardial effusions, and apical thrombi within either the left or right ventricle. In this work, we examine the research literature on the use of CMRI in the diagnosis of chest discomfort, employing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate its effectiveness. The research outlines the disorders of the chest and the machine learning approaches for detecting them. In conclusion, the study ends with an examination of a fundamental illustration of CMRI analysis. To find a comprehensive review, the Scopus scientific resource is analyzed. The issue, based on the findings, is to distinguish ischemia from non-ischemic cardiac causes of chest pain in individuals presenting with sudden chest pain or discomfort upon arrival at the emergency department (ED). Due to the failure of conventional methods in accurately diagnosing acute cardiac ischemia, individuals are still being inappropriately discharged from the ED, resulting in a heightened death rate.

Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging 2023; 5:e220312. [PMID: 37693205 PMCID: PMC10483256 DOI: 10.1148/ryct.220312] [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: 12/16/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the effect of ComBat harmonization methods on the robustness of cardiac MRI-derived radiomic features to variations in imaging parameters. Materials and Methods This Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act-compliant retrospective study used a publicly available data set of 11 healthy controls (mean age, 33 years ± 16 [SD]; six men) and five patients (mean age, 52 years ± 16; four men). A single midventricular short-axis section was acquired with 3-T MRI using cine balanced steady-state free precision, T1-weighted, T2-weighted, T1 mapping, and T2 mapping imaging sequences. Each sequence was acquired using baseline parameters and after variations in flip angle, spatial resolution, section thickness, and parallel imaging. Image registration was performed for all sequences at a per-individual level. Manual myocardial contouring was performed, and 1652 radiomic features per sequence were extracted using baseline and variations in imaging parameters. Radiomic feature stability to change in imaging parameters was assessed using Cohen d sensitivity. The stability of radiomic features was assessed both without and after ComBat harmonization of radiomic features. Three ComBat methods were studied: parametric, nonparametric, and Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Results For all sequences combined, 51.4% of features were robust to changes in imaging parameters when no ComBat method was applied. ComBat harmonization substantially increased the number of stable features to 95.1% (95% CI: 94.9, 95.3) when parametric ComBat was used and 90.9% (95% CI: 90.6, 91.2) when nonparametric ComBat was used. GMM combat resulted in only 52.6% stable features. Conclusion ComBat harmonization improved the stability of radiomic features to changes in imaging parameters across all cardiac MRI sequences.Keywords: Cardiac MRI, Radiomics, ComBat, Harmonization Supplemental material is available for this article. © RSNA, 2023.
