Abstract We aimed to develop a prognostic model for primary pontine hemorrhage (PPH) patients and validate the predictive value of the model for a good prognosis at 90 days. A total of 254 PPH patients were included for screening of the independent predictors of prognosis, and data were analyzed by univariate and multivariable logistic regression tests. The cases were then divided into training cohort (n=219) and validation cohort (n=35) based on the two centers. A nomogram was developed using independent predictors from the training cohort to predict the 90-day good outcome and was validated from the validation cohort. Glasgow Coma Scale score, normalized pixels (used to describe bleeding volume), and mechanical ventilation were significant predictors of a good outcome of PPH at 90 days in the training cohort (all P<0.05). The U test showed no statistical difference (P=0.892) between the training cohort and the validation cohort, suggesting the model fitted well. The new model showed good discrimination (area under the curve=0.833). The decision curve analysis of the nomogram of the training cohort indicated a great net benefit. The PPH nomogram comprising the Glasgow Coma Scale score, normalized pixels, and mechanical ventilation may facilitate predicting a 90-day good outcome.

Résumé
BackgroundThe occurrence rate of dangerous behaviors in patients with severe mental disorders is higher than that of the general population. In China, there is limited research on the prediction of dangerous behaviors in community-dwelling patients with severe mental disorders, particularly in terms of predicting models using data mining techniques other than traditional methods. ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of dangerous behaviors in community-dwelling patients with severe mental disorders and testing whether the classification decision tree model is superior to the Logistic regression model. MethodsA total of 11 484 community-dwelling patients with severe mental disorders who had complete follow-up records from 2013 to 2022 were selected on December 2023. The data were divided into a training set (n=9 186) and a testing set (n=2 298) in an 8∶2 ratio. Logistic regression and classification decision trees were separately used to establish predictive models in the training set. Model discrimination and calibration were evaluated in the testing set. ResultsDuring the follow-up period, 1 115 cases (9.71%) exhibited dangerous behaviors. Logistic regression results showed that urban residence, poverty, guardianship, intellectual disability, history of dangerous behaviors, impaired insight and positive symptoms were risk factors for dangerous behaviors (OR=1.778, 1.459, 2.719, 1.483, 3.890, 1.423, 2.528, 2.124, P<0.01). Being aged ≥60 years, educated, not requiring prescribed medication and having normal social functioning were protective factors for dangerous behaviors (OR=0.594, 0.824, 0.422, 0.719, P<0.05 or 0.01). The predictive effect in the testing set showed an area under curve (AUC) of 0.729 (95% CI: 0.692~0.766), accuracy of 70.97%, sensitivity of 59.71%, and specificity of 72.05%. The classification decision tree results showed that past dangerous situations, positive symptoms, overall social functioning score, economic status, insight, household registration, disability status and age were the influencing factors for dangerous behaviors. The predictive effect in the testing set showed an AUC of 0.721 (95% CI: 0.705~0.737), accuracy of 68.28%, sensitivity of 64.46%, and specificity of 68.60%. ConclusionThe classification decision tree does not have a greater advantage over the logistic regression model in predicting the risk of dangerous behaviors in patients with severe mental disorders in the community.

【Objective】 To investigate the factors influencing the length of hospital stays of the acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) patients, so as to establish the prediction model. 【Methods】 A total of 49 patients diagnosed as AFLP)in ShenZhen People’s Hospital between January 2008 and January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the median length of hospital stays, the patients were divided into two groups: Group A(n=21)and Group B(n=28). Preoperative general laboratory data, clinical features and postpartum adverse outcomes in both groups were analyzed. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the independent factors affecting the length of hospital stays for AFLP, and a prediction model for hospitalization time was established. 【Results】 Comparison between Group B and Group A were as follows: hospital stays(d)(15.5 vs 8), preoperative icterus(%)[16(57.1%)vs 3(14.3%)], thrombin time(TT)(s)(24.2 vs 21.3), prothrombin time(PT)(s)(16.8 vs 15.3), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT)(s)(52.3 vs 40.7), total bilirubin(TBIL)(μmol/L)(77.2 vs 45.2), indirect bilirubin(IBIL)(μmol/L)(21.2 vs 10), creatinine(Cre)(μmol/L)[(171.97±53.34) vs (131.81±45.06]), TT extension(%)[24(85.7%)vs 11(52.4%)], APTT extension(%)[27(96.4%)vs 7(33.3%)], IBIL elevation(%)[19(67.9%)vs 4(19%)], Cre concentration rise(%)[21(75%)vs 8(38%)], number of postpartum plasma exchange sessions(%)[23(82.1%)vs 5(23.8%)], postpregnancy co-infection phenomenon(%)[21(75%)vs 4(19%)], with Group B significantly higher than Group A. The preoperative platelet count(×109/L)(128 vs 221)and the concentration of fibrinogen(g/L)[0.9 vs 1.6] in Group B were significantly lower than those in Group A. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative icterus, postpregnancy co-infection phenomenon, number of postpartum plasma exchange sessions, preoperative TT extension, preoperative APTT extension, Cre concentration rise were influencing factors for the hospital stays of AFLP patients. According to the minimum result of Akaike information criterion, the multivariate binary logistic regression analysis (step-wise selection) showed that the number of postpartum plasma exchange sessions, icterus, preoperative APTT extension were the independent risk factor influencing the hospital stays of AFLP patients, and the logistic regression prediction model was established by incorporating the above three factors. Regularization techniques were further employed in linear regression to address and assess overfitting issues. Additionally, the confidence interval for the estimated effect sizes in each model have been acquired by bootstrapping techniques. 【Conclusion】 Preoperative icterus, preoperative APTT extension(APTT>43s)and the number of postpartum plasma exchange sessions were the independent risk factor influencing the hospital stays of AFLP patients and the logistic regression prediction model with high predictive effectiveness was established successfully.
Résumé
In medical research,predictive models have been widely used to predict disease progression and identify high-risk populations in advance, especially in the prevention and diagnosis of chronic diseases. In ophthalmology, the predictive and diagnostic models for fundus diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy have demonstrated expert-level accuracy. However, the application of predictive models is still in the exploratory stage as for myopia prevention and control. The establishment of a predictive model is helpful to identify the high-risk myopic children in advance, so that preventive measures such as adequate outdoor activities and reducing near work can be taken in time, which is of great significance to prevent or slow down the occurrence and development of myopia. Because the mechanism of myopia has not been fully elucidated, there are still challenges and limitations in the selection of application objects, predictors and predictive outcomes. This paper reviews the research progress of different types of myopia predictive models in order to provide reference for further development and improvement.

Objective Differential genes related to prognosis of endometrial carcinoma(EC)were screened and prognostic models were constructed.Methods Gene Expression data of EC and normal control samples were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database and Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)dataset GSE63678 to screen out common differential genes.LASSO regression analysis was used to screen out the genes with prognostic significance and construct prognostic characteristics.EC patients with complete information were obtained from the TCGA database and randomly divided into the training group and the validation group in a ratio of 1:1.In the training group,survival curves were constructed based on prognostic characteristics.Functional annotation and pathway enrichment analysis were conducted using gene ontology(GO)analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analysis.Combined with prognostic features and clinical risk factors,a calibration curve and C-index were used to evaluate the performance of the histogram.Finally,use a verification group for validation.Results A total of 4800 and 257 differentially expressed genes were screened from TCGA and GEO databases respectively,of which 73 up-regulated genes and 52 down-regulated genes were co-expressed.6 prognostic genes(ORMDL2,BNC2,TTK,MAMLD1,KCTD7 and DCLK2)were screened out by LASSO regression analysis.The survival curve showed that the overall survival of patients in the high-risk group was significantly lower than that in the low-risk group(P<0.01).GO analysis and KEGG results exhibited that prognostic signature was associated with cell cycle.The nomogram showed powerful predictive ability in the training and validation groups.Conclusion We constructed a predictive model based on prognostic genes,which can accurately predict the prognosis of patients with EC and provide new theoretical support for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Résumé
Introducción: El diagnóstico precoz de la crisis vasoclusiva (CVO) que afecta a pacientes con drepanocitosis resulta un tema no resuelto en la actualidad. No se ha encontrado en la literatura evidencia de modelos que puedan establecer tempranamente índices de riesgo de la CVO para la toma de una conducta terapéutica oportuna en estos pacientes. Objetivo: Establecer índices de riesgo en pacientes con drepanocitosis, a partir de la formulación de un modelo predictivo del estado vasoclusivo. Métodos: A partir de un estudio analí tico transversal de casos y controles, realizado en el Centro Hematológico de Santiago de Cuba, se formuló a través de un análisis discriminante, un modelo predictivo del estado de CVO. Se usaron estadígrafos de dispersión (media y desviación estándar) para el establecimiento de índices de riesgo sustentados en él. Resultados: Se formuló un modelo predictivo del estado de CVO que incluyó biomarcadores del estado redox como predictores significativos en el paciente con drepanocitosis. El modelo sustentó los índices de riesgo, estratificados en 3 categorías (riesgo menor, moderado y mayor) que fueron asignados a los pacientes y posibilitó su adecuada clasificación. Conclusiones: El diseño de un modelo predictivo de CVO y el establecimiento de índices de riesgo en pacientes con drepanocitosis permitió una mejor evaluación. La nueva herramienta diagnóstica que se propone resultaría de gran utilidad en los servicios de Hematología, al facilitar una mejor valoración del estado del paciente con drepanocitosis y un tratamiento profiláctico oportuno que minimice las complicaciones asociadas a este estado.
Introduction: The early diagnosis of vasooclusive crisis affecting sickle cell patients is currently an unresolved issue. In the reviewed literature no models have been found able to establish early risk indices of vasooclusive crisis for taking a timely therapeutic behavior in these patients. Objective: To establish risk indices in sickle cell patients based on the formulation of a predictive model of vasoocclusive state. Methods: Based on a cross-sectional case-control analytic study conducted at the Hematological Center of Santiago de Cuba, a predictive model of VOC status was formulated through a discriminant analysis. Dispersion statistics (mean and standard deviation) were used to establish risk indices based on it. Results: A predictive model of the state of VOC that included biomarkers of the redox state as significant predictors of it in sickle cell patients was formulated. The model supported the risk indices, stratified into 3 categories (lower, moderate and higher risk) that were assigned to the patients and allowed an adequate classification of them. Conclusions: The design of a predictive model of VOC and the establishment of risk indices in sickle cell patients allowed a better evaluation of them. The new diagnostic tool proposed in the study would be very useful in the Hematology services, by facilitating a better assessment of the sickle cell patient's condition and a timely prophylactic treatment that minimizes the complications associated with this state.

Objective:To establish a predictive risk model for acute kidney injury (AKI) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients based on machine learning algorithm and compare with a traditional logistic regression model.Methods:It was a retrospective study. The demographic data, laboratory examination, treatment regimen and medication of AMI patients from July 2011 to December 2016 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University were collected. The diagnostic criteria of AKI were based on the AKI diagnosis and treatment guidelines published by Kidney Diseases: Improving Global Outcomes in 2012. The selected AMI patients were randomly divided into training set (70%) and internal test set (30%) by simple random sampling. SelectFromModel and Lasso regression models were used to extract clinical parameters as predictors of AKI in AMI patients. Logistic regression model (model A) and machine learning algorithm (model B) were used to establish the risk prediction model of AKI in AMI patients. DeLong method was used to compare the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve ( AUC) between model A and model B for selecting the best model. Results:A total of 6 014 AMI patients were included in the study, with age of (58.4±11.7) years old and 3 414 males (80.5%). There were 674 patients (11.2%) with AKI. There were 4 252 patients (70.7%) in the training set and 1 762 patients (29.3%) in the test set. The selected twelve clinical parameters by the SelectFromModel and Lasso regression models included the number of myocardial infarctions, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, ventricular tachycardia, third degree atrioventricular block, decompensated heart failure at admission, admission serum creatinine, admission blood urea nitrogen, admission peak creatine kinase isoenzyme, diuretics, maximum daily dose of diuretics, days of diuretic use and statins. Logistic regression prediction model showed that AUC for the test set was 0.80 (95% CI 0.76-0.84). The machine learning algorithm model obtained AUC in the test set with 0.82 (95% CI 0.78-0.85).There was no significant difference in AUC between the two models ( Z=0.858, P=0.363), and AUC of the machine learning algorithm predictive model was slightly higher than that of the traditional logistic regression model. Conclusions:The prediction effect of AKI risk in AMI patients based on machine learning algorithm is similar to that of traditional logistic regression model, and the prediction accuracy of machine learning algorithm is better. The introduction of machine learning algorithm model may improve the ability to predict AKI risk.

BACKGROUND:Based on different algorithms of machine learning,how to carry out clinical research on lumbar disc herniation with the help of various algorithmic models has become a trend and hot spot in the development of intelligent medicine at present. OBJECTIVE:To review the characteristics of different algorithmic models of machine learning in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation,and summarize the respective advantages and application strategies of algorithmic models for the same purpose. METHODS:The computer searched PubMed,Web of Science,EMBASE,CNKI,WanFang,VIP and China Biomedical(CBM)databases to extract the relevant articles on machine learning in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.Finally,96 articles were included for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Different algorithm models of machine learning provide intelligent and accurate application strategies for clinical diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.(2)Traditional statistical methods and decision trees in supervised learning are simple and efficient in exploring risk factors and establishing diagnostic and prognostic models.Support vector machine is suitable for small data sets with high-dimensional features.As a nonlinear classifier,it can be applied to the recognition,segmentation and classification of normal or degenerative intervertebral discs,and to establish diagnostic and prognostic models.Ensemble learning can make up for the shortcomings of a single model.It has the ability to deal with high-dimensional data and improve the precision and accuracy of clinical prediction models.Artificial neural network improves the learning ability of the model,and can be applied to intervertebral disc recognition,classification and making clinical prediction models.On the basis of the above uses,deep learning can also optimize images and assist surgical operations.It is the most widely used model with the best performance in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.The clustering algorithm in unsupervised learning is mainly used for disc segmentation and classification of different herniated segments.However,the clinical application of semi-supervised learning is relatively less.(3)At present,machine learning has certain clinical advantages in the identification and segmentation of lumbar intervertebral discs,classification and grading of the degenerative intervertebral discs,automatic clinical diagnosis and classification,construction of the clinical predictive model and auxiliary operation.(4)In recent years,the research strategy of machine learning has changed to the neural network and deep learning,and the deep learning algorithm with stronger learning ability will be the key to realizing intelligent medical treatment in the future.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of the model based on soluble T cell immunogloblulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3 (sTIM3) for the progression of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. The AP patients admitted to Changzhou First People's Hospital and Changzhou Second People's Hospital from June 1, 2020 to June 30, 2022 were enrolled. Mild AP (MAP) and moderately severe AP (MSAP) patients were classified as non-SAP group, and SAP patients were classified as SAP group according to the progression of AP patients during hospitalization. The basic data, blood biological indicators, serum sTIM3 level, bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis (BISAP), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score, modified computed tomography severity index (MCTSI) score within 48 hours of admission, and prognosis indicators were collected. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the risk factors of the progression of SAP in patients with AP during hospitalization. Based on the results of multivariate analysis and the best parameters selected based on the minimal Akaike information criterion (AIC), the SAP prediction model based on sTIM3 was constructed. The receive operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was plotted to analyze the predictive efficacy of the model.Results:A total of 99 AP patients were enrolled, 80 patients in the non-SAP group and 19 patients in the SAP group. Compared with the non-SAP group, body mass index (BMI), drinking history ratio, heart rate (HR), respiration rate (RR), white blood cell count (WBC), red blood cell count (RBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum creatinine (SCr), procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), sTIM3, BISAP score, APACHEⅡ score and MCTSI score were significantly increased, and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), direct bilirubin (DBil) and IL-10 were significantly decreased. The length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and total length of hospital stay of patients in the SAP group were significantly longer than those in the non-SAP group [length of ICU stay (days): 1.0 (0, 1.5) vs. 0 (0, 0), total length of hospital stay (days): 17.11±9.39 vs. 8.40±3.08, both P < 0.01]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that HR [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.059, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.010-1.110, P = 0.017], DBil ( OR = 0.981, 95% CI was 0.950-0.997, P = 0.043), and sTIM3 ( OR = 1.002, 95% CI was 1.001-1.003, P = 0.027) were independent risk factors for predicting the progression of SAP in patients with AP, and the SAP prediction model based on sTIM3 was constructed: Logit( P) = -14.602+0.187×BMI+0.057×HR+0.006×CRP-0.020×DBil+0.002×sTIM3. ROC curve analysis showed that among the aforementioned single factor quantitative indicators, IL-6 was the most effective in predicting the progression of AP patients to SAP during hospitalization, but the predictive performance of prediction model based on the sTIM3 was significantly better than IL-6 [area under the ROC curve (AUC) and 95% CI: 0.957 (0.913-1.000) vs. 0.902 (0.845-0.958), P < 0.05]. Conclusion:The model based on serum sTIM3 demonstrated good predictive value for the progression of SAP in patients with AP.

Introduction: Apfel simplified risk score for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) has shown to be useful in anesthesia; however, since it has not been calibrated in regional anesthesia or in pregnant patients, its use in cesarean section is limited. Objective: To develop a prognostic predictive model for postoperative nausea and vomiting in pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. Methods: In a cohort of 703 term pregnant patients scheduled of cesarean section, 15 variables were prospectively assessed, to design a prognostic predictive model for the development of postoperative nausea and vomiting. A logistic regression analysis was used to construct the model and its calibration and discrimination were based on the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, the calibration curves, and C statistic. Additionally, the internal calibration was performed with the Bootstrap resampling method. Results: Postoperative nausea and vomiting were experienced by 27% of the patients during the first six hours after surgery. The model included as prognostic variables the development of intraoperative nausea and vomiting, age under 28 years, a history of PONV, the mother's BMI and the weight of the newborn baby. The model showed an adequate calibration (x2: 4.65 p: 0.5888), though a low discrimination (Statistic C = 0.68). Conclusions: A prognostic predictive model was created for the development of PONV in cesarean section. This model was used to build a prognostic scale for the classification of patients into risk groups.
Introducción: La escala de riesgo simplificada de Apfel para náuseas y vómito posoperatorio (NVPO) ha mostrado utilidad en anestesia; sin embargo, al no haber sido calibrada en anestesia regional o en pacientes embarazadas, su utilidad en cesárea es limitado. Objetivo: Desarrollar un modelo de predicción pronóstica para náuseas y vómito posoperatorios en pacientes embarazadas, llevadas a cesárea bajo anestesia espinal. Métodos: En una cohorte de 703 pacientes con embarazo a término programadas para cesárea, se evaluaron 15 variables de forma prospectiva para construir un modelo de predicción pronóstica para el desarrollo de náuseas y vómito posoperatorio. Se utilizó el análisis de regresión logística para la construcción del modelo y se calculó su calibración y discriminación con la prueba de Hosmer-Lemeshow, las curvas de calibración y el estadístico C. Además, se realizó la calibración interna con el método de remuestreo Bootstrap. Resultados: Las náuseas y vómito posoperatorio se presentaron en el 27% de las pacientes durante las primeras seis horas después de la cirugía. El modelo incluyó como variables pro-nósticas el desarrollo de náuseas y vómito en el intraoperatorio, edad menor de 28 años, antecedentes de NVPO, índice de masa corporal (IMC) de la madre y el peso del recién nacido. El modelo mostró una adecuada calibración (x2: 4,65 p: 0,5888), aunque una baja discriminación (Estadístico C = 0,68). Conclusiones: Se construyó un modelo de predicción pronóstica para el desarrollo de NVPO en cirugía cesárea, y con este se construyó una escala pronóstica que permite clasificar a las pacientes por grupos de riesgo.
