Digitalizace postupně proniká do velké části medicínských oblastí včetně patologie. Společně s digitálním zpracováním dat přichází aplikace metod umělé inteligence za účelem zjednodušení rutinních procesů, zvýšení bezpečnosti apod. Ačkoliv se obecné povědomí o metodách umělé inteligence zvyšuje, stále není pravidlem, že by odborníci z netechnických oborů měli detailní představu o tom, jak takové systémy fungují a jak se učí. Cílem tohoto textu je přístupnou formou vysvětlit základy strojového učení s využitím příkladů a ilustrací z oblasti digitální patologie. Nejedná se samozřejmě o ucelený přehled ani o představení nejmodernějších metod. Držíme se spíše úplných základů a představujeme fundamentální myšlenky, které stojí za většinou učících systémů, s použitím nejjednodušších modelů. V textu se věnujeme zejména rozhodovacím stromům, jejichž funkce je snadno vysvětlitelná, a elementárním neuronovým sítím, které jsou hlavním modelem používaným v dnešní umělé inteligenci. Pokusíme se také popsat postup spolupráce mezi lékaři, kteří dodávají data, a informatiky, kteří s jejich pomocí vytvářejí učící systémy. Věříme, že tento text pomůže překlenout rozdíly mezi znalostmi lékařů a informatiků a tím přispěje k efektivnější mezioborové spolupráci.
Digitalization has gradually made its way into many areas of medicine, including pathology. Along with digital data processing comes the application of artificial intelligence methods to simplify routine processes, enhance safety, etc. Although general awareness of artificial intelligence methods is increasing, it is still not common for professionals from non-technical fields to have a detailed understanding of how such systems work and learn. This text aims to explain the basics of machine learning in an accessible way using examples and illustrations from digital pathology. This is not intended to be a comprehensive overview or an introduction to cutting-edge methods. Instead, we use the simplest models to focus on fundamental concepts behind most learning systems. The text concentrates on decision trees, whose functionality is easy to explain, and basic neural networks, the primary models used in today’s artificial intelligence. We also attempt to describe the collaborative process between medical specialists, who provide the data, and computer scientists, who use this data to develop learning systems. This text will help bridge the knowledge gap between medical professionals and computer scientists, contributing to more effective interdisciplinary collaboration.

TransCelerate reports on the results of 2019, 2020, and 2021 member company (MC) surveys on the use of intelligent automation in pharmacovigilance processes. MCs increased the number and extent of implementation of intelligent automation solutions throughout Individual Case Safety Report (ICSR) processing, especially with rule-based automations such as robotic process automation, lookups, and workflows, moving from planning to piloting to implementation over the 3 survey years. Companies remain highly interested in other technologies such as machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence, which can deliver a human-like interpretation of data and decision making rather than just automating tasks. Intelligent automation solutions are usually used in combination with more than one technology being used simultaneously for the same ICSR process step. Challenges to implementing intelligent automation solutions include finding/having appropriate training data for ML models and the need for harmonized regulatory guidance.

AIMS: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is associated with a substantial rate of adverse events. We sought to design a machine learning (ML)-based model to predict the risk of in-hospital death and to perform a clustering of TTS patients to identify different risk profiles. METHODS AND RESULTS: A ridge logistic regression-based ML model for predicting in-hospital death was developed on 3482 TTS patients from the International Takotsubo (InterTAK) Registry, randomly split in a train and an internal validation cohort (75% and 25% of the sample size, respectively) and evaluated in an external validation cohort (1037 patients). Thirty-one clinically relevant variables were included in the prediction model. Model performance represented the primary endpoint and was assessed according to area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity. As secondary endpoint, a K-medoids clustering algorithm was designed to stratify patients into phenotypic groups based on the 10 most relevant features emerging from the main model. The overall incidence of in-hospital death was 5.2%. The InterTAK-ML model showed an AUC of 0.89 (0.85-0.92), a sensitivity of 0.85 (0.78-0.95) and a specificity of 0.76 (0.74-0.79) in the internal validation cohort and an AUC of 0.82 (0.73-0.91), a sensitivity of 0.74 (0.61-0.87) and a specificity of 0.79 (0.77-0.81) in the external cohort for in-hospital death prediction. By exploiting the 10 variables showing the highest feature importance, TTS patients were clustered into six groups associated with different risks of in-hospital death (28.8% vs. 15.5% vs. 5.4% vs. 1.0.8% vs. 0.5%) which were consistent also in the external cohort. CONCLUSION: A ML-based approach for the identification of TTS patients at risk of adverse short-term prognosis is feasible and effective. The InterTAK-ML model showed unprecedented discriminative capability for the prediction of in-hospital death.

The search for non-invasive, fast, and low-cost diagnostic tools has gained significant traction among many researchers worldwide. Dielectric properties calculated from microwave signals offer unique insights into biological tissue. Material properties, such as relative permittivity (εr) and conductivity (σ), can vary significantly between healthy and unhealthy tissue types at a given frequency. Understanding this difference in properties is key for identifying the disease state. The frequency-dependent nature of the dielectric measurements results in large datasets, which can be postprocessed using artificial intelligence (AI) methods. In this work, the dielectric properties of liver tissues in three mouse models of liver disease are characterized using dielectric spectroscopy. The measurements are grouped into four categories based on the diets or disease state of the mice, i.e., healthy mice, mice with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced by choline-deficient high-fat diet, mice with NASH induced by western diet, and mice with liver fibrosis. Multi-class classification machine learning (ML) models are then explored to differentiate the liver tissue groups based on dielectric measurements. The results show that the support vector machine (SVM) model was able to differentiate the tissue groups with an accuracy up to 90%. This technology pipeline, thus, shows great potential for developing the next generation non-invasive diagnostic tools.

Acute heart failure (AHF) is a common and severe condition with a poor prognosis. Its course is often complicated by worsening renal function (WRF), exacerbating the outcome. The population of AHF patients experiencing WRF is heterogenous, and some novel possibilities for its analysis have recently emerged. Clustering is a machine learning (ML) technique that divides the population into distinct subgroups based on the similarity of cases (patients). Given that, we decided to use clustering to find subgroups inside the AHF population that differ in terms of WRF occurrence. We evaluated data from the three hundred and twelve AHF patients hospitalized in our institution who had creatinine assessed four times during hospitalization. Eighty-six variables evaluated at admission were included in the analysis. The k-medoids algorithm was used for clustering, and the quality of the procedure was judged by the Davies-Bouldin index. Three clinically and prognostically different clusters were distinguished. The groups had significantly (p = 0.004) different incidences of WRF. Inside the AHF population, we successfully discovered that three groups varied in renal prognosis. Our results provide novel insight into the AHF and WRF interplay and can be valuable for future trial construction and more tailored treatment.

Supervised machine learning (ML) is used extensively in biology and deserves closer scrutiny. The Data Optimization Model Evaluation (DOME) recommendations aim to enhance the validation and reproducibility of ML research by establishing standards for key aspects such as data handling and processing, optimization, evaluation, and model interpretability. The recommendations help to ensure that key details are reported transparently by providing a structured set of questions. Here, we introduce the DOME registry (URL: registry.dome-ml.org), a database that allows scientists to manage and access comprehensive DOME-related information on published ML studies. The registry uses external resources like ORCID, APICURON, and the Data Stewardship Wizard to streamline the annotation process and ensure comprehensive documentation. By assigning unique identifiers and DOME scores to publications, the registry fosters a standardized evaluation of ML methods. Future plans include continuing to grow the registry through community curation, improving the DOME score definition and encouraging publishers to adopt DOME standards, and promoting transparency and reproducibility of ML in the life sciences.

BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) approaches can significantly improve the classical Rout-based evaluation of the lumbar infusion test (LIT) and the clinical management of the normal pressure hydrocephalus. OBJECTIVE: To develop a ML model that accurately identifies patients as candidates for permanent cerebral spinal fluid shunt implantation using only intracranial pressure and electrocardiogram signals recorded throughout LIT. METHODS: This was a single-center cohort study of prospectively collected data of 96 patients who underwent LIT and 5-day external lumbar cerebral spinal fluid drainage (external lumbar drainage) as a reference diagnostic method. A set of selected 48 intracranial pressure/electrocardiogram complex signal waveform features describing nonlinear behavior, wavelet transform spectral signatures, or recurrent map patterns were calculated for each patient. After applying a leave-one-out cross-validation training-testing split of the data set, we trained and evaluated the performance of various state-of-the-art ML algorithms. RESULTS: The highest performing ML algorithm was the eXtreme Gradient Boosting. This model showed a good calibration and discrimination on the testing data, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.891 (accuracy: 82.3%, sensitivity: 86.1%, and specificity: 73.9%) obtained for 8 selected features. Our ML model clearly outperforms the classical Rout-based manual classification commonly used in clinical practice with an accuracy of 62.5%. CONCLUSION: This study successfully used the ML approach to predict the outcome of a 5-day external lumbar drainage and hence which patients are likely to benefit from permanent shunt implantation. Our automated ML model thus enhances the diagnostic utility of LIT in management.
BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive adult primary brain cancer, characterized by significant heterogeneity, posing challenges for patient management, treatment planning, and clinical trial stratification. METHODS: We developed a highly reproducible, personalized prognostication, and clinical subgrouping system using machine learning (ML) on routine clinical data, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and molecular measures from 2838 demographically diverse patients across 22 institutions and 3 continents. Patients were stratified into favorable, intermediate, and poor prognostic subgroups (I, II, and III) using Kaplan-Meier analysis (Cox proportional model and hazard ratios [HR]). RESULTS: The ML model stratified patients into distinct prognostic subgroups with HRs between subgroups I-II and I-III of 1.62 (95% CI: 1.43-1.84, P < .001) and 3.48 (95% CI: 2.94-4.11, P < .001), respectively. Analysis of imaging features revealed several tumor properties contributing unique prognostic value, supporting the feasibility of a generalizable prognostic classification system in a diverse cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Our ML model demonstrates extensive reproducibility and online accessibility, utilizing routine imaging data rather than complex imaging protocols. This platform offers a unique approach to personalized patient management and clinical trial stratification in GBM.

Práce s big daty vyžaduje použití prostředků umělé inteligence. Přináší to možnost transformace laboratorních výsledků do formy strojového učení-machine learning (ML). Od něho se očekává aktivace dat, přinášející zlepšení diagnostických možností laboratorních vyšetření. Jde o posuv od použití počítačů, sloužících z části jako skladiště mrtvých dat, k aktivnějšímu využití jejich potenciálu pro diagnostiku, management, edukaci, výzkum a další. Zejména pak k predikci stavu chorob a k precizní medicíně v onkologii i jinde. Důsledkem by měl být integrovaný mezioborový přístup k diagnostice a reálné dosažení efektivní personalizace při diagnostice a terapii pacientů. Sdělení je pokusem o pomoc při zavádění práce s big daty a umělou inteligencí v klinických laboratořích. Vychází z faktu obrovské akcelerace tohoto přístupu, zdaleka nejen pouze v laboratorní medicíně.
