Non-invasive diagnostic tool for Parkinson's disease by sebum RNA profile with machine learning.

ABSTRACT: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease presenting with motor and non-motor symptoms, including skin disorders (seborrheic dermatitis, bullous pemphigoid, and rosacea), skin pathological changes (decreased nerve endings and alpha-synuclein deposition), and metabolic changes of sebum. Recently, a transcriptome method using RNA in skin surface lipids (SSL-RNAs) which can be obtained non-invasively with an oil-blotting film was reported as a novel analytic method of sebum. Here we report transcriptome analyses using SSL-RNAs and the potential of these expression profiles with machine learning as diagnostic biomarkers for PD in double cohorts (PD [n = 15, 50], controls [n = 15, 50]). Differential expression analysis between the patients with PD and healthy controls identified more than 100 differentially expressed genes in the two cohorts. In each cohort, several genes related to oxidative phosphorylation were upregulated, and gene ontology analysis using differentially expressed genes revealed functional processes associated with PD. Furthermore, machine learning using the expression information obtained from the SSL-RNAs was able to efficiently discriminate patients with PD from healthy controls, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.806. This non-invasive gene expression profile of SSL-RNAs may contribute to early PD diagnosis based on the neurodegeneration background.

LncDC: a machine learning-based tool for long non-coding RNA detection from RNA-Seq data.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an essential role in diverse biological processes and disease development. Accurate classification of lncRNAs and mRNAs is important for the identification of tissue- or disease-specific lncRNAs. Here, we present our tool LncDC (Long non-coding RNA detection) that is able to accurately predict lncRNAs with an XGBoost model using features extracted from RNA sequences, secondary structures, and translated proteins. Benchmarking experiments showed that LncDC consistently outperformed six state-of-the-art tools in distinguishing lncRNAs from mRNAs. Notably, the use of sequence and secondary structure (SASS) k-mer score features and flexible ORF features improved the classification capability of LncDC. We anticipate that LncDC will definitely promote the discovery of more and novel disease-specific lncRNAs. LncDC is implemented in Python and freely available at https://github.com/lim74/LncDC .

Non-Invasive Blood Pressure Sensing via Machine Learning.

Project description:In this paper, a machine learning (ML) approach to estimate blood pressure (BP) using photoplethysmography (PPG) is presented. The final aim of this paper was to develop ML methods for estimating blood pressure (BP) in a non-invasive way that is suitable in a telemedicine health-care monitoring context. The training of regression models useful for estimating systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was conducted using new extracted features from PPG signals processed using the Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT). As a matter of fact, the interest was on the use of the most significant features obtained by the Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (MRMR) selection algorithm to train eXtreme Gradient Boost (XGBoost) and Neural Network (NN) models. This aim was satisfactorily achieved by also comparing it with works in the literature; in fact, it was found that XGBoost models are more accurate than NN models in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements, obtaining a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for SBP and DBP, respectively, of 5.67 mmHg and 3.95 mmHg. For SBP measurement, this result is an improvement compared to that reported in the literature. Furthermore, the trained XGBoost regression model fulfills the requirements of the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) as well as grade A of the British Hypertension Society (BHS) standard.

Machine learning analysis of gene expression profile reveals a novel diagnostic signature for osteoporosis.

Project description:BackgroundOsteoporosis (OP) is increasingly prevalent with the aging of the world population. It is urgent to identify efficient diagnostic signatures for the clinical application.MethodWe downloaded the mRNA profile of 90 peripheral blood samples with or without OP from GEO database (Number: GSE152073). Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to reveal the correlation among genes in all samples. GO term and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed via the clusterProfiler R package. STRING database was applied to screen the interaction pairs among proteins. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was visualized based on Cytoscape, and the key genes were screened using the cytoHubba plug-in. The diagnostic model based on these key genes was constructed, and 5-fold cross validation method was applied to evaluate its reliability.ResultsA gene module consisted of 176 genes predicted to be associated with the occurrence of OP was identified. A total of 16 significantly enriched GO terms and 1 significantly enriched KEGG pathway were obtained based on the 176 genes. The top 50 key genes in the PPI network were identified. Then 22 genes were screened based on stepwise regression analysis from the 50 key genes. Of which, 9 genes were further screened out by multivariate regression analysis with the significant threshold of P value < 0.01. The diagnostic model was established based on the optimal 9 key genes, which efficiently separated the normal samples and OP samples.ConclusionA diagnostic model established based on nine key genes could reliably separate OP patients from healthy subjects, which provided novel lightings on the diagnostic research of OP.

Machine-learning based feature selection for a non-invasive breathing change detection.

Project description:BackgroundChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the top 10 causes of death worldwide, representing a major public health problem. Researchers have been looking for new technologies and methods for patient monitoring with the intention of an early identification of acute exacerbation events. Many of these works have been focusing in breathing rate variation, while achieving unsatisfactory sensitivity and/or specificity. This study aims to identify breathing features that better describe respiratory pattern changes in a short-term adjustment of the load-capacity-drive balance, using exercising data.ResultsUnder any tested circumstances, breathing rate alone leads to poor capability of classifying rest and effort periods. The best performances were achieved when using Fourier coefficients or when combining breathing rate with the signal amplitude and/or ARIMA coefficients.ConclusionsBreathing rate alone is a quite poor feature in terms of prediction of breathing change and the addition of any of the other proposed features improves the classification power. Thus, the combination of features may be considered for enhancing exacerbation prediction methods based in the breathing signal.Trial registrationClinicalTrials NCT03753386.

Non-invasive assessment of NAFLD as systemic disease-A machine learning perspective.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS:Current non-invasive scores for the assessment of severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and identification of patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) have insufficient performance to be included in clinical routine. In the current study, we developed a novel machine learning approach to overcome the caveats of existing approaches. METHODS:Non-invasive parameters were selected by an ensemble feature selection (EFS) from a retrospectively collected training cohort of 164 obese individuals (age: 43.5±10.3y; BMI: 54.1±10.1kg/m2) to develop a model able to predict the histological assessed NAFLD activity score (NAS). The model was evaluated in an independent validation cohort (122 patients, age: 45.2±11.75y, BMI: 50.8±8.61kg/m2). RESULTS:EFS identified age, γGT, HbA1c, adiponectin, and M30 as being highly associated with NAFLD. The model reached a Spearman correlation coefficient with the NAS of 0.46 in the training cohort and was able to differentiate between NAFL (NAS≤4) and NASH (NAS>4) with an AUC of 0.73. In the independent validation cohort, an AUC of 0.7 was achieved for this separation. We further analyzed the potential of the new model for disease monitoring in an obese cohort of 38 patients under lifestyle intervention for one year. While all patients lost weight under intervention, increasing scores were observed in 15 patients. Increasing scores were associated with significantly lower absolute weight loss, lower reduction of waist circumference and basal metabolic rate. CONCLUSIONS:A newly developed model (http://CHek.heiderlab.de) can predict presence or absence of NASH with reasonable performance. The new score could be used to detect NASH and monitor disease progression or therapy response to weight loss interventions.

Non-invasive classification of macrophage polarisation by 2P-FLIM and machine learning.

Project description:In this study, we utilise fluorescence lifetime imaging of NAD(P)H-based cellular autofluorescence as a non-invasive modality to classify two contrasting states of human macrophages by proxy of their governing metabolic state. Macrophages derived from human blood-circulating monocytes were polarised using established protocols and metabolically challenged using small molecules to validate their responding metabolic actions in extracellular acidification and oxygen consumption. Large field-of-view images of individual polarised macrophages were obtained using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM). These were challenged in real time with small-molecule perturbations of metabolism during imaging. We uncovered FLIM parameters that are pronounced under the action of carbonyl cyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP), which strongly stratifies the phenotype of polarised human macrophages; however, this performance is impacted by donor variability when analysing the data at a single-cell level. The stratification and parameters emanating from a full field-of-view and single-cell FLIM approach serve as the basis for machine learning models. Applying a random forests model, we identify three strongly governing FLIM parameters, achieving an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (ROC-AUC) value of 0.944 and out-of-bag (OBB) error rate of 16.67% when classifying human macrophages in a full field-of-view image. To conclude, 2P-FLIM with the integration of machine learning models is showed to be a powerful technique for analysis of both human macrophage metabolism and polarisation at full FoV and single-cell level.

Machine learning prediction of the total duration of invasive and non-invasive ventilation During ICU Stay.

Project description:Predicting the duration of ventilation in the ICU helps in assessing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury, ensuring sufficient oxygenation, and optimizing resource allocation. Prior models provided a prediction of total duration without distinguishing between invasive and non-invasive ventilation. This work proposes two independent gradient boosting regression models for predicting the duration of invasive and non-invasive ventilation based on commonly available ICU features. These models are trained on 2.6 million patient stays across 350 US hospitals between 2010 to 2019. The mean absolute error (MAE) for the prediction of duration was 2.08 days for invasive ventilation and 0.36 days for non-invasive ventilation. The total ventilation duration predicted by our model had MAE of 2.38 days, which outperformed the gold standard (APACHE) with MAE of 3.02 days. The feature importance analysis of the trained models showed that, for invasive ventilation, high average heart rate, diagnosis of respiratory infection and admissions from locations other than the operating room were associated with longer ventilation durations. For non-invasive ventilation, higher respiratory rates and having any GCS measurement were associated with longer durations.

Exploring reflectance confocal microscopy as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for genital lichen sclerosus.

Project description:The diagnosis of genital lichen sclerosus (LS) is often confirmed by obtaining a skin biopsy, which can lead to unwanted complications and is uncomfortable in the sensitive genital area. Thus, there is a need of finding novel, non-invasive techniques that can rapidly and accurately diagnose LS. The present study investigated the potential for reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) to diagnose LS compared with healthy penile skin and other common penile skin disorders in males. A total of 30 male patients, including patients with LS, nonspecific balanoposthitis, plasma cell balanitis and psoriasis, and healthy individuals were included and were subject to non-invasive RCM investigation. Prominent fiber-like structures, representing hyaline sclerosis, were observed in the RCM images for almost half of the patients. Differences between healthy penile skin and LS were confirmed by identifying the edged papillae on healthy skin and their absence or obscureness in patients with LS. Notably, RCM could detect the atypical honeycomb pattern referring to dysplasia in 1 patient with LS with penile intraepithelial neoplasia. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that RCM can detect sclerosis in penile LS. RCM can potentially become a valuable tool for monitoring patients with LS for dysplasia providing a useful non-invasive diagnostic tool for genital disorders.
