Lopes J, Faria M, Santos MF. Exploring trends and autonomy levels of adaptive business intelligence in healthcare: A systematic review. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0302697. [PMID: 38728308 PMCID: PMC11086907 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0302697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In order to comprehensively understand the characteristics of Adaptive Business Intelligence (ABI) in Healthcare, this study is structured to provide insights into the common features and evolving patterns within this domain. Applying the Sheridan's Classification as a framework, we aim to assess the degree of autonomy exhibited by various ABI components. Together, these objectives will contribute to a deeper understanding of ABI implementation and its implications within the Healthcare context. METHODS A comprehensive search of academic databases was conducted to identify relevant studies, selecting AIS e-library (AISel), Decision Support Systems Journal (DSSJ), Nature, The Lancet Digital Health (TLDH), PubMed, Expert Systems with Application (ESWA) and npj Digital Medicine as information sources. Studies from 2006 to 2022 were included based on predefined eligibility criteria. PRISMA statements were used to report this study. RESULTS The outcomes showed that ABI systems present distinct levels of development, autonomy and practical deployment. The high levels of autonomy were essentially associated with predictive components. However, the possibility of completely autonomous decisions by these systems is totally excluded. Lower levels of autonomy are also observed, particularly in connection with prescriptive components, granting users responsibility in the generation of decisions. CONCLUSION The study presented emphasizes the vital connection between desired outcomes and the inherent autonomy of these solutions, highlighting the critical need for additional research on the consequences of ABI systems and their constituent elements. Organizations should deploy these systems in a way consistent with their objectives and values, while also being mindful of potential adverse effects. Providing valuable insights for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers aiming to comprehend the diverse levels of ABI systems implementation, it contributes to well-informed decision-making in this dynamic field.

[PMID: 37295630 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbi.2023.104408] [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: 05/24/2022] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Predicting the patient's in-hospital mortality from the historical Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) can assist physicians to make clinical decisions and assign medical resources. In recent years, researchers proposed many deep learning methods to predict in-hospital mortality by learning patient representations. However, most of these methods fail to comprehensively learn the temporal representations and do not sufficiently mine the contextual knowledge of demographic information. We propose a novel end-to-end approach based on Local and Global Temporal Representation Learning with Demographic Embedding (LGTRL-DE) to address the current issues for in-hospital mortality prediction. LGTRL-DE is enabled by (1) a local temporal representation learning module that captures the temporal information and analyzes the health status from a local perspective through a recurrent neural network with the demographic initialization and the local attention mechanism; (2) a Transformer-based global temporal representation learning module that extracts the interaction dependencies among clinical events; (3) a multi-view representation fusion module that fuses temporal and static information and generates the final patient's health representations. We evaluate our proposed LGTRL-DE on two public real-world clinical datasets (MIMIC-III and e-ICU). Experimental results show that LGTRL-DE achieves an area under receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.8685 and 0.8733 on the MIMIC-III and e-ICU datasets, respectively, outperforming state-of-the-art approaches.

Prediction of Acid-Base and Potassium Imbalances in Intensive Care Patients Using Machine Learning Techniques. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:diagnostics13061171. [PMID: 36980479 PMCID: PMC10047445 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13061171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Acid–base disorders occur when the body’s normal pH is out of balance. They can be caused by problems with kidney or respiratory function or by an excess of acids or bases that the body cannot properly eliminate. Acid–base and potassium imbalances are mechanistically linked because acid–base imbalances can alter the transport of potassium. Both acid–base and potassium imbalances are common in critically ill patients. This study investigated machine learning models for predicting the occurrence of acid–base and potassium imbalances in intensive care patients. We used an institutional dataset of 1089 patients with 87 variables, including vital signs, general appearance, and laboratory results. Gradient boosting (GB) was able to predict nine clinical conditions related to acid–base and potassium imbalances: mortality (AUROC = 0.9822), hypocapnia (AUROC = 0.7524), hypercapnia (AUROC = 0.8228), hypokalemia (AUROC = 0.9191), hyperkalemia (AUROC = 0.9565), respiratory acidosis (AUROC = 0.8125), respiratory alkalosis (AUROC = 0.7685), metabolic acidosis (AUROC = 0.8682), and metabolic alkalosis (AUROC = 0.8284). Some predictions remained relatively robust even when the prediction window was increased. Additionally, the decision-making process was made more interpretable and transparent through the use of SHAP analysis. Overall, the results suggest that machine learning could be a useful tool to gain insight into the condition of intensive care patients and assist in the management of acid–base and potassium imbalances.

COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE 2022; 226:107161. [PMID: 36228495 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmpb.2022.107161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 88] [Impact Index Per Article: 44.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Artificial intelligence (AI) has branched out to various applications in healthcare, such as health services management, predictive medicine, clinical decision-making, and patient data and diagnostics. Although AI models have achieved human-like performance, their use is still limited because they are seen as a black box. This lack of trust remains the main reason for their low use in practice, especially in healthcare. Hence, explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) has been introduced as a technique that can provide confidence in the model's prediction by explaining how the prediction is derived, thereby encouraging the use of AI systems in healthcare. The primary goal of this review is to provide areas of healthcare that require more attention from the XAI research community. METHODS Multiple journal databases were thoroughly searched using PRISMA guidelines 2020. Studies that do not appear in Q1 journals, which are highly credible, were excluded. RESULTS In this review, we surveyed 99 Q1 articles covering the following XAI techniques: SHAP, LIME, GradCAM, LRP, Fuzzy classifier, EBM, CBR, rule-based systems, and others. CONCLUSION We discovered that detecting abnormalities in 1D biosignals and identifying key text in clinical notes are areas that require more attention from the XAI research community. We hope this is review will encourage the development of a holistic cloud system for a smart city.

Explainable time-series deep learning models for the prediction of mortality, prolonged length of stay and 30-day readmission in intensive care patients. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:933037. [PMID: 36250092 PMCID: PMC9554013 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.933037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background In-hospital mortality, prolonged length of stay (LOS), and 30-day readmission are common outcomes in the intensive care unit (ICU). Traditional scoring systems and machine learning models for predicting these outcomes usually ignore the characteristics of ICU data, which are time-series forms. We aimed to use time-series deep learning models with the selective combination of three widely used scoring systems to predict these outcomes. Materials and methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 40,083 patients in ICU from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Three deep learning models, namely, recurrent neural network (RNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and long short-term memory (LSTM) with attention mechanisms, were trained for the prediction of in-hospital mortality, prolonged LOS, and 30-day readmission with variables collected during the initial 24 h after ICU admission or the last 24 h before discharge. The inclusion of variables was based on three widely used scoring systems, namely, APACHE II, SOFA, and SAPS II, and the predictors consisted of time-series vital signs, laboratory tests, medication, and procedures. The patients were randomly divided into a training set (80%) and a test set (20%), which were used for model development and model evaluation, respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and Brier scores were used to evaluate model performance. Variable significance was identified through attention mechanisms. Results A total of 33 variables for 40,083 patients were enrolled for mortality and prolonged LOS prediction and 36,180 for readmission prediction. The rates of occurrence of the three outcomes were 9.74%, 27.54%, and 11.79%, respectively. In each of the three outcomes, the performance of RNN, GRU, and LSTM did not differ greatly. Mortality prediction models, prolonged LOS prediction models, and readmission prediction models achieved AUCs of 0.870 ± 0.001, 0.765 ± 0.003, and 0.635 ± 0.018, respectively. The top significant variables co-selected by the three deep learning models were Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), age, blood urea nitrogen, and norepinephrine for mortality; GCS, invasive ventilation, and blood urea nitrogen for prolonged LOS; and blood urea nitrogen, GCS, and ethnicity for readmission. Conclusion The prognostic prediction models established in our study achieved good performance in predicting common outcomes of patients in ICU, especially in mortality prediction. In addition, GCS and blood urea nitrogen were identified as the most important factors strongly associated with adverse ICU events.

Discrete-time survival analysis in the critically ill: a deep learning approach using heterogeneous data. NPJ Digit Med 2022; 5:142. [PMID: 36104486 PMCID: PMC9474816 DOI: 10.1038/s41746-022-00679-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Prediction of survival for patients in intensive care units (ICUs) has been subject to intense research. However, no models exist that embrace the multiverse of data in ICUs. It is an open question whether deep learning methods using automated data integration with minimal pre-processing of mixed data domains such as free text, medical history and high-frequency data can provide discrete-time survival estimates for individual ICU patients. We trained a deep learning model on data from patients admitted to ten ICUs in the Capital Region of Denmark and the Region of Southern Denmark between 2011 and 2018. Inspired by natural language processing we mapped the electronic patient record data to an embedded representation and fed the data to a recurrent neural network with a multi-label output layer representing the chance of survival at different follow-up times. We evaluated the performance using the time-dependent concordance index. In addition, we quantified and visualized the drivers of survival predictions using the SHAP methodology. We included 37,355 admissions of 29,417 patients in our study. Our deep learning models outperformed traditional Cox proportional-hazard models with concordance index in the ranges 0.72–0.73, 0.71–0.72, 0.71, and 0.69–0.70, for models applied at baseline 0, 24, 48, and 72 h, respectively. Deep learning models based on a combination of entity embeddings and survival modelling is a feasible approach to obtain individualized survival estimates in data-rich settings such as the ICU. The interpretable nature of the models enables us to understand the impact of the different data domains.

Establishment of ICU Mortality Risk Prediction Models with Machine Learning Algorithm Using MIMIC-IV Database. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12051068. [PMID: 35626224 PMCID: PMC9139972 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12051068] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: The mortality rate of critically ill patients in ICUs is relatively high. In order to evaluate patients’ mortality risk, different scoring systems are used to help clinicians assess prognosis in ICUs, such as the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III (APACHE III) and the Logistic Organ Dysfunction Score (LODS). In this research, we aimed to establish and compare multiple machine learning models with physiology subscores of APACHE III—namely, the Acute Physiology Score III (APS III)—and LODS scoring systems in order to obtain better performance for ICU mortality prediction. Methods: A total number of 67,748 patients from the Medical Information Database for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) were enrolled, including 7055 deceased patients, and the same number of surviving patients were selected by the random downsampling technique, for a total of 14,110 patients included in the study. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into a training dataset (n = 9877) and a validation dataset (n = 4233). Fivefold cross-validation and grid search procedures were used to find and evaluate the best hyperparameters in different machine learning models. Taking the subscores of LODS and the physiology subscores that are part of the APACHE III scoring systems as input variables, four machine learning methods of XGBoost, logistic regression, support vector machine, and decision tree were used to establish ICU mortality prediction models, with AUCs as metrics. AUCs, specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and calibration curves were used to find the best model. Results: For the prediction of mortality risk in ICU patients, the AUC of the XGBoost model was 0.918 (95%CI, 0.915–0.922), and the AUCs of logistic regression, SVM, and decision tree were 0.872 (95%CI, 0.867–0.877), 0.872 (95%CI, 0.867–0.877), and 0.852 (95%CI, 0.847–0.857), respectively. The calibration curves of logistic regression and support vector machine performed better than the other two models in the ranges 0–40% and 70%–100%, respectively, while XGBoost performed better in the range of 40–70%. Conclusions: The mortality risk of ICU patients can be better predicted by the characteristics of the Acute Physiology Score III and the Logistic Organ Dysfunction Score with XGBoost in terms of ROC curve, sensitivity, and specificity. The XGBoost model could assist clinicians in judging in-hospital outcome of critically ill patients, especially in patients with a more uncertain survival outcome.
