Development of Machine Learning Models for Prediction of Osteoporosis from Clinical Health Examination Data.

ABSTRACT: Osteoporosis is treatable but often overlooked in clinical practice. We aimed to construct prediction models with machine learning algorithms to serve as screening tools for osteoporosis in adults over fifty years old. Additionally, we also compared the performance of newly developed models with traditional prediction models. Data were acquired from community-dwelling participants enrolled in health checkup programs at a medical center in Taiwan. A total of 3053 men and 2929 women were included. Models were constructed for men and women separately with artificial neural network (ANN), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), and logistic regression (LoR) to predict the presence of osteoporosis. Area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to compare the performance of the models. We achieved AUROC of 0.837, 0.840, 0.843, 0.821, 0.827 in men, and 0.781, 0.807, 0.811, 0.767, 0.772 in women, for ANN, SVM, RF, KNN, and LoR models, respectively. The ANN, SVM, RF, and LoR models in men, and the ANN, SVM, and RF models in women performed significantly better than the traditional Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool for Asians (OSTA) model. We have demonstrated that machine learning algorithms improve the performance of screening for osteoporosis. By incorporating the models in clinical practice, patients could potentially benefit from earlier diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.

Project description:BackgroundAccurate, pragmatic risk stratification for postoperative delirium (POD) is necessary to target preventative resources toward high-risk patients. Machine learning (ML) offers a novel approach to leveraging electronic health record (EHR) data for POD prediction. We sought to develop and internally validate a ML-derived POD risk prediction model using preoperative risk features, and to compare its performance to models developed with traditional logistic regression.MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis of preoperative EHR data from 24,885 adults undergoing a procedure requiring anesthesia care, recovering in the main post-anesthesia care unit, and staying in the hospital at least overnight between December 2016 and December 2019 at either of two hospitals in a tertiary care health system. One hundred fifteen preoperative risk features including demographics, comorbidities, nursing assessments, surgery type, and other preoperative EHR data were used to predict postoperative delirium (POD), defined as any instance of Nursing Delirium Screening Scale ≥2 or positive Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit within the first 7 postoperative days. Two ML models (Neural Network and XGBoost), two traditional logistic regression models ("clinician-guided" and "ML hybrid"), and a previously described delirium risk stratification tool (AWOL-S) were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC), sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, and positive predictive value. Model calibration was assessed with a calibration curve. Patients with no POD assessments charted or at least 20% of input variables missing were excluded.ResultsPOD incidence was 5.3%. The AUC-ROC for Neural Net was 0.841 [95% CI 0. 816-0.863] and for XGBoost was 0.851 [95% CI 0.827-0.874], which was significantly better than the clinician-guided (AUC-ROC 0.763 [0.734-0.793], p < 0.001) and ML hybrid (AUC-ROC 0.824 [0.800-0.849], p < 0.001) regression models and AWOL-S (AUC-ROC 0.762 [95% CI 0.713-0.812], p < 0.001). Neural Net, XGBoost, and ML hybrid models demonstrated excellent calibration, while calibration of the clinician-guided and AWOL-S models was moderate; they tended to overestimate delirium risk in those already at highest risk.ConclusionUsing pragmatically collected EHR data, two ML models predicted POD in a broad perioperative population with high discrimination. Optimal application of the models would provide automated, real-time delirium risk stratification to improve perioperative management of surgical patients at risk for POD.
