Predicting postoperative gastric cancer prognosis based on inflammatory factors and machine learning technology.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

There is a strong association between gastric cancer and inflammatory factors. Many studies have shown that machine learning can predict cancer patients' prognosis. However, there has been no study on predicting gastric cancer death based on machine learning using related inflammatory factor variables.

Methods

Six machine learning algorithms are applied to predict total gastric cancer death after surgery.

Results

The Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) algorithm factors accounting for the prognosis weight outcome show that the three most important factors are neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and age. The total postoperative death model showed that among patients with gastric cancer from the predictive test group: The highest accuracy was LR (0.759), followed by the GBM algorithm (0.733). For the six algorithms, the AUC values, from high to low, were LR, GBM, GBDT, forest, Tr and Xgbc. Among the six algorithms, Logistic had the highest precision (precision = 0.736), followed by the GBM algorithm (precision = 0.660). Among the six algorithms, GBM had the highest recall rate (recall = 0.667).

Conclusion

Postoperative mortality from gastric cancer can be predicted based on machine learning.

Project description:IntroductionThis study aimed to develop machine learning models to predict neurological outcomes in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) after surgical decompression and identify key factors that contribute to a better outcome, providing a reference for patient consultation and surgical decision-making.MethodsThis retrospective study reviewed 1,895 patients who underwent cervical decompression surgery for DCM at Peking University Third Hospital from 2011 to 2020, with 672 patients included in the final analysis. Five machine learning methods, namely, linear regression (LR), support vector machines (SVM), random forest (RF), XGBoost, and Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM), were used to predict whether patients achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in the improvement in the Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, which was based on basic information, symptoms, physical examination signs, intramedullary high signals on T2-weighted (T2WI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and various scale scores. After training and optimizing multiple ML algorithms, we generated a model with the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) to predict short-term outcomes following DCM surgery. We evaluated the importance of the features and created a feature-reduced model. The model's performance was assessed using an external dataset.ResultsThe LightGBM algorithm performed the best in predicting short-term neurological outcomes in the testing dataset, achieving an AUROC value of 0.745 and an area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC) value of 0.810. The important features influencing performance in the short-term model included the preoperative JOA score, age, SF-36-GH, SF-36-BP, and SF-36-PF. The feature-reduced LightGBM model, which achieved an AUROC value of 0.734, also showed favorable performance. Moreover, the feature-reduced model showed an AUROC value of 0.785 for predicting the MCID of postoperative JOA in the external dataset, which included 58 patients from other hospitals.ConclusionWe developed models based on machine learning to predict postoperative neurological outcomes. The LightGBM model presented the best predictive power regarding the surgical outcomes of DCM patients. Feature importance analysis revealed that variables, including age, preoperative JOA score, SF-36-PF, SF-36-GH, and SF-36-BP, were essential factors in the model. The feature-reduced LightGBM model, designed for ease of application, achieved nearly the same predictive power with fewer variables.

Project description:Traditional clinical characteristics have certain limitations in evaluating cancer prognosis. The radiomics features provide information on tumor morphology, tissue texture, and hemodynamics, which can accurately reflect personalized predictions. This study investigated the clinical value of radiomics features on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) images in predicting prognosis and postoperative chemotherapy benefits for patients with gastric cancer (GC). For this study, 171 GC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy and pathology confirmation of the malignancy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively enrolled. The general information, pathological characteristics, and postoperative chemotherapy information were collected. Patients were also monitored through telephone interviews or outpatient treatment. GC patients were randomly divided into the developing cohort (n=120) and validation cohort (n=51). The intra-tumor areas of interest inside the tumors were delineated, and 1,218 radiomics features were extracted. The optimal radiomics risk score (RRS) was constructed using 8 machine learning algorithms and 29 algorithm combinations. Furthermore, a radiomics nomogram that included clinicopathological characteristics was constructed and validated through univariate and multivariate Cox analyses. Eleven prognosis-related features were selected, and an RRS was constructed. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the RRS had a high prognostic ability in the developing and validation cohorts (log-rank P<0.01). The RRS was higher in patients with a larger tumor size (≥3 cm), higher Charlson score (≥2), and higher clinical stage (Stages III and IV) (all P<0.001). Furthermore, GC patients with a higher RRS significantly benefited from postoperative chemotherapy. The results of univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses demonstrated that the RRS was an independent risk factor for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) (P<0.001). A visual nomogram was established based on the significant factors in multivariate Cox analysis (P<0.05). The C-index was 0.835 (0.793-0.877) for OS and 0.733 (0.677-0.789) for DFS in the developing cohort. The calibration curve also showed that the nomogram had good agreement. A nomogram that combines the RRS and clinicopathological characteristics could serve as a novel noninvasive preoperative prediction model with the potential to accurately predict the prognosis and chemotherapy benefits of GC patients.
