Project description:ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility of using random forest (RF) machine learning algorithm in assessing normal and malignant peripheral pulmonary nodules based on in vivo endobronchial optical coherence tomography (EB-OCT).MethodsA total of 31 patients with pulmonary nodules were admitted to Department of Respiratory Medicine, Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University, and underwent chest CT, EB-OCT and biopsy. Attenuation coefficient and up to 56 different image features were extracted from A-line and B-scan of 1703 EB-OCT images. Attenuation coefficient and 29 image features with significant p-values were used to analyze the differences between normal and malignant samples. A RF classifier was trained using 70% images as training set, while 30% images were included in the testing set. The accuracy of the automated classification was validated by clinically proven pathological results.ResultsAttenuation coefficient and 29 image features were found to present different properties with significant p-values between normal and malignant EB-OCT images. The RF algorithm successfully classified the malignant pulmonary nodules with sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 90.41%, 77.87% and 83.51% respectively.ConclusionIt is clinically practical to distinguish the nature of pulmonary nodules by integrating EB-OCT imaging with automated machine learning algorithm. Diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules by analyzing quantitative features from EB-OCT images could be a potentially powerful way for early detection of lung cancer.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer causes a huge disease burden, and early detection of positive pulmonary nodules (PPNs) as an early sign of lung cancer is extremely important for effective intervention. It is necessary to develop PPNs risk recognizer based on machine learning algorithm combined with central carbon metabolomics.MethodsThe study included 2248 participants at high risk for lung cancer from the Ma'anshan Community Lung Cancer Screening cohort. The Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) was used to screen 18 central carbon-related metabolites in plasma, recursive feature elimination (RFE) was used to select all 42 features, followed by five machine learning algorithms for model development. The performance of the model was evaluated using area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC), accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 scores. In addition, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) was performed to assess the interpretability of the final selected model and to gain insight into the impact of features on the predicted results.ResultsFinally, the two prediction models based on the random forest (RF) algorithm performed best, with AUC values of 0.87 and 0.83, respectively, better than other models. We found that homogentisic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, hippuric acid, gluconic acid, and succinic acid played a significant role in both PPNs prediction model and NPNs vs PPNs model, while 2-oxadipic acid only played a role in the former model and phosphopyruvate only played a role in the NPNs vs PPNs model. This model demonstrates the potential of central carbon metabolism for PPNs risk prediction and identification.ConclusionWe developed a series of predictive models for PPNs, which can help in the early detection of PPNs and thus reduce the risk of lung cancer.

Project description:BackgroundDistinguishing benign from malignant sub-centimeter solid pulmonary nodules (SSPNs) continues to be challenging in clinical practice. Earlier diagnosis is crucial for improving patient survival and prognosis. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors of malignant SSPNs and establish and validate a prediction model based on computed tomography (CT) characteristics to assist in their early diagnosis.MethodsA total of 261 consecutive participants with 261 SSPNs were retrospectively recruited between January 2012 and July 2023 from National Cancer Center/National Clinical Research Center for Cancer/Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (Center 1), including 161 malignant lesions and 100 benign lesions. Patients were randomly assigned to the training set (n=183) and validation set (n=78) according to a 7:3 ratio. Malignant nodules were confirmed by pathology; and benign nodules were confirmed by follow-up or pathology. Clinical data and CT features were collected to estimate the independent predictors of malignancy of SSPN with multivariate logistic analysis. A clinical prediction model was subsequently established by logistic regression. Furthermore, an additional 69 consecutive patients with 69 SSPNs from The Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University (Center 2) between January 2022 and December 2022 were retrospectively included as an external cohort to validate the predictive efficacy of the model. The performance of the prediction model was assessed by sensitivity, specificity, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.ResultsThere were 113 (61.7%), 48 (61.5%) and 28 (40.6%) malignant SSPNs in the training, internal and external validation sets, respectively. Multivariate logistic analysis revealed four independent predictors of malignant SSPNs: tumor-lung interface (P=0.002), spiculation (P=0.04), air bronchogram (P=0.047), and invisible at the mediastinal window (P=0.003). The area under the curve (AUC) for the prediction model in the training set was 0.875 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.818, 0.933]; and the sensitivity and specificity were 94.7% and 68.6%, respectively. The AUCs in the internal and external validation set were (0.781; 95% CI: 0.664, 0.897) and (0.873; 95% CI: 0.791, 0.955), respectively; the sensitivity and specificity were 66.7% and 83.3% for the internal validation data, and 100.0% and 61.0% for the external validation data, respectively.ConclusionsThe prediction model based on CT characteristics could be helpful for distinguishing malignant SSPNs from benign ones.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer deaths across the world. Early detection of lung cancer by low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) can reduce the mortality rate. However, making a definitive preoperative diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules (PNs) found by LDCT is a clinical challenge. This study aimed to develop a prediction model based on DNA methylation biomarkers and radiological characteristics for identifying malignant pulmonary nodules from benign PNs.MethodsWe assessed three DNA methylation biomarkers (PTGER4, RASSF1A, and SHOX2) and clinically-relevant variables in a training cohort of 110 individuals with PNs. Four machine-learning-based prediction models were established and compared, including the K-nearest neighbors (KNN), random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and logistic regression (LR) algorithms. Variables of the best-performing algorithm (LR) were selected through stepwise use of Akaike's information criterion (AIC). The constructed prediction model was compared with the methylation biomarkers and the Mayo Clinic model using the non-parametric approach of DeLong et al. with the area under a receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) analysis.ResultsA prediction model was finally constructed based on three DNA methylation biomarkers and one radiological characteristic for identifying malignant from benign PNs. The developed prediction model achieved an AUC value of 0.951 in malignant PNs diagnosis, significantly higher than the three DNA methylation biomarkers (0.912, 95% CI:0.843-0.958, p = 0.013) or Mayo Clinic model (0.823, 95% CI:0.739-0.890, p = 0.001). Validation of the prediction model in the testing cohort of 100 subjects with PNs confirmed the diagnostic value.ConclusionWe have shown that integrating DNA methylation biomarkers and radiological characteristics could more accurately identify lung cancer in subjects with CT-found PNs. The prediction model developed in our study may provide clinical utility in combination with LDCT to improve the over-all diagnosis of lung cancer.

Project description:To improve the accuracy of preoperative diagnoses and avoid over- or undertreatment, we aimed to develop and compare computed tomography-based radiomics machine learning models for the prediction of histological invasiveness using sub-centimeter subsolid pulmonary nodules. Three predictive models based on radiomics were built using three machine learning classifiers to discriminate the invasiveness of the sub-centimeter subsolid pulmonary nodules. A total of 203 sub-centimeter nodules from 177 patients were collected and assigned randomly to the training set (n = 143) or test set (n = 60). The areas under the curve of the predictive models were 0.743 (95% confidence interval CI [0.661-0.824]) for the logistic regression, 0.828 (95% CI [0.76-0.896]) for the support vector machine, and 0.917 (95% CI [0.869-0.965]) for the XGBoost classifier models in the training set, and 0.803 (95% CI [0.694-0.913]), 0.726 (95% CI [0.598-0.854]), and 0.874 (95% CI [0.776-0.972]) in the test set, respectively. In addition, the decision curve showed that the XGBoost model added more net benefit within the range of 0.06 to 0.93.

Project description:Objective The study aims to establish and validate an effective CT-based radiation pneumonitis (RP) prediction model using the multiomics method of radiomics and EQD2-based dosiomics. Materials and Methods The study performed a retrospective analysis on 91 nonsmall cell lung cancer patients who received radiotherapy from 2019 to 2021 in our hospital. The patients with RP grade ≥1 were labeled as 1, and those with RP grade < 1 were labeled as 0. The whole lung excluding clinical target volume (lung-CTV) was used as the region of interest (ROI). The radiomic and dosiomic features were extracted from the lung-CTV area's image and dose distribution. Besides, the equivalent dose of the 2 Gy fractionated radiation (EQD2) model was used to convert the physical dose to the isoeffect dose, and then, the EQD2-based dosiomic (eqd-dosiomic) features were extracted from the isoeffect dose distribution. Four machine learning (ML) models, including DVH, radiomics combined with DVH (radio + DVH), radiomics combined with dosiomics (radio + dose), and radiomics combined with eqd-dosiomics (radio + eqdose), were established to construct the prediction model via eleven different classifiers. The fivefold cross-validation was used to complete the classification experiment. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristics (ROC), accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score were calculated to assess the performance level of the prediction models. Results Compared with the DVH, radio + DVH, and radio + dose model, the value of the training AUC, accuracy, and F1-score of radio + eqdose was higher, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Besides, the average value of the precision and recall of radio + eqdose was higher, but the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusion The performance of using the ML-based multiomics method of radiomics and eqd-dosiomics to predict RP is more efficient and effective.

Project description:BackgroundAs the lesions in pulmonary nodules (PNs) are small and the clinical manifestations lack specificity, the etiology of PNs is complex, predisposing them to misdiagnoses missed diagnoses. Thus, the diagnosis and treatment of PNs remains challenging and an important clinical problem.MethodsThis study prospectively enrolled 156 patients with computed tomography (CT)-diagnosed PNs who underwent circulating genetically abnormal cell (CAC) testing between January 2020 and December 2021. We collected data on clinical features closely related to the nature of PNs, such as age, smoking history, and type of nodule. All internal regions of interest (ROIs) of PNs in this study were segmented. Radiomic feature extraction was performed on the ROIs, and a radiomics model was constructed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to obtain a radiomics score (Rad-score). A comprehensive model combining clinical features, Rad-score, and liquid biopsy was constructed using logistic regression analysis. The diagnostic performance of the model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.ResultsIn this study, 5 radiomics features were screened for model construction. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the radiomics model was 0.844 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.766-0.915] in the training set. The Rad-score, clinical features, and CAC were further combined to construct a multidimensional analysis model. The AUC of the synthesized model was 0.943 (95% CI: 0.881-0.978) in the training set.ConclusionsA multidimensional model is an effective tool for the noninvasive diagnosis of malignant PNs. The validation and combination of multiple diagnostic methods is a productive avenue of research trend for the identification of malignant PNs.
