Calcium Spark Detection and Event-Based Classification of Single Cardiomyocyte Using Deep Learning

ABSTRACT: Ca2+ sparks are the elementary Ca2+ release events in cardiomyocytes, altered properties of which lead to impaired Ca2+ handling and finally contribute to cardiac pathology under various diseases. Despite increasing use of machine-learning algorithms in deciphering the content of biological and medical data, Ca2+ spark images and data are yet to be deeply learnt and analyzed. In the present study, we developed a deep residual convolutional neural network method to detect Ca2+ sparks. Compared to traditional detection methods with arbitrarily defined thresholds to distinguish signals from noises, our new method detected more Ca2+ sparks with lower amplitudes but similar spatiotemporal distributions, thereby indicating that our new algorithm detected many very weak events that are usually omitted when using traditional detection methods. Furthermore, we proposed an event-based logistic regression and binary classification model to classify single cardiomyocytes using Ca2+ spark characteristics, which to date have generally been used only for simple statistical analyses and comparison between normal and diseased groups. Using this new detection algorithm and classification model, we succeeded in distinguishing wild type (WT) vs RyR2-R2474S± cardiomyocytes with 100% accuracy, and vehicle vs isoprenaline-insulted WT cardiomyocytes with 95.6% accuracy. The model can be extended to judge whether a small number of cardiomyocytes (and so the whole heart) are under a specific cardiac disease. Thus, this study provides a novel and powerful approach for the research and application of calcium signaling in cardiac diseases.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the accuracy of deep learning algorithms to diagnose tooth caries and classify the extension and location of dental caries in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the application of deep learning for dental caries in CBCT images.MethodsThe CBCT image dataset comprised 382 molar teeth with caries and 403 noncarious molar cases. The dataset was divided into a development set for training and validation and test set. Three images were obtained for each case, including axial, sagittal, and coronal. The test dataset was provided to a multiple-input convolutional neural network (CNN). The network made predictions regarding the presence or absence of dental decay and classified the lesions according to their depths and types for the provided samples. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F1 score values were measured for dental caries detection and classification.ResultsThe diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F1 score for caries detection in carious molar teeth were 95.3%, 92.1%, 96.3%, and 93.2%, respectively, and for noncarious molar teeth were 94.8%, 94.3%, 95.8%, and 94.6%. The CNN network showed high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in classifying caries extensions and locations.ConclusionsThis research demonstrates that deep learning models can accurately identify dental caries and classify their depths and types with high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. The successful application of deep learning in this field will undoubtedly assist dental practitioners and patients in improving diagnostic and treatment planning in dentistry.Clinical significanceThis study showed that deep learning can accurately detect and classify dental caries. Deep learning can provide dental caries detection accurately. Considering the shortage of dentists in certain areas, using CNNs can lead to broader geographic coverage in detecting dental caries.

Project description:The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a worldwide catastrophe and widespread devastation that reeled almost all countries. The pandemic has mounted pressure on the existing healthcare system and caused panic and desperation. The gold testing standard for COVID-19 detection, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), has shown its limitations with 70% accuracy, contributing to the incorrect diagnosis that exaggerated the complexities and increased the fatalities. The new variations further pose unseen challenges in terms of their diagnosis and subsequent treatment. The COVID-19 virus heavily impacts the lungs and fills the air sacs with fluid causing pneumonia. Thus, chest X-ray inspection is a viable option if the inspection detects COVID-19-induced pneumonia, hence confirming the exposure of COVID-19. Artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques are capable of examining chest X-rays in order to detect patterns that can confirm the presence of COVID-19-induced pneumonia. This research used CNN and deep learning techniques to detect COVID-19-induced pneumonia from chest X-rays. Transfer learning with fine-tuning ensures that the proposed work successfully classifies COVID-19-induced pneumonia, regular pneumonia, and normal conditions. Xception, Visual Geometry Group 16, and Visual Geometry Group 19 are used to realize transfer learning. The experimental results were promising in terms of precision, recall, F1 score, specificity, false omission rate, false negative rate, false positive rate, and false discovery rate with a COVID-19-induced pneumonia detection accuracy of 98%. Experimental results also revealed that the proposed work has not only correctly identified COVID-19 exposure but also made a distinction between COVID-19-induced pneumonia and regular pneumonia, as the latter is a very common disease, while COVID-19 is more lethal. These results mitigated the concern and overlap in the diagnosis of COVID-19-induced pneumonia and regular pneumonia. With further integrations, it can be employed as a potential standard model in differentiating the various lung-related infections, including COVID-19.
