Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the value of machine learning models (ML) based on MRI radiomics in diagnosing early parotid gland injury in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS).
Methods: A total of 164 patients (114 in the training cohort and 50 in the testing cohort) with pSS (n=82) or healthy controls (HC) (n=82) were enrolled. Itksnap software was used to perform two-dimensional segmentation of the bilateral parotid glands on T1-weighted (T1WI) and fat-suppressed T2-weighted imaging (fs-T2WI) images. A total of 1548 texture features of the parotid glands were extracted using radiomics software. A radiomics score (Radscore) was constructed and calculated. A t-test was used to compare the Radscore between the two groups. Finally, five machine learning models were trained and tested to identify early pSS parotid injury, and the performance of the machine learning models was evaluated by calculating the acceptance operating curve (ROC) and other parameters.
Results: The Radscores between the pSS and HC groups showed significant statistical differences (p<0.001). Among the five machine learning models, the Extra Trees Classifier (ETC) model performed high predictive efficacy in identifying early pSS parotid injury, with an AUC of 0.87 in the testing set.
Conclusion: MRI radiomics-based machine learning models can effectively diagnose early parotid gland injury in primary Sjögren's syndrome.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China.
Background: The impact of aortic arch (AA) morphology on the management of the procedural details and the clinical outcomes of the transfemoral artery (TF)-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has not been evaluated. The goal of this study was to evaluate the AA morphology of patients who had TF-TAVR using an artificial intelligence algorithm and then to evaluate its predictive value for clinical outcomes.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1480 consecutive patients undergoing TF-TAVR using a new-generation transcatheter heart valve at 12 institutes were included in this retrospective study.

Current approaches for classifying biosensor data in diagnostics rely on fixed decision thresholds based on receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, which can be limited in accuracy for complex and variable signals. To address these limitations, we developed a framework that facilitates the application of machine learning (ML) to diagnostic data for the binary classification of clinical samples, when using real-time electrochemical measurements. The framework was applied to a real-time multimeric aptamer assay (RT-MAp) that captures single-frequency (12.

Parkinson Disease (PD) is a complex neurological disorder attributed by loss of neurons generating dopamine in the SN per compacta. Electroencephalogram (EEG) plays an important role in diagnosing PD as it offers a non-invasive continuous assessment of the disease progression and reflects these complex patterns. This study focuses on the non-linear analysis of resting state EEG signals in PD, with a gender-specific, brain region-specific, and EEG band-specific approach, utilizing recurrence plots (RPs) and machine learning (ML) algorithms for classification.

Drug-drug interaction can lead to diminished therapeutic effects or increased toxicity, posing significant risks, especially in polypharmacy, and cytochrome P450 plays an indispensable role in this interaction. Cytochrome P450, responsible for the metabolism and detoxification of most drugs, metabolizes about 90% of Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs, making early detection of potential drug-drug interactions. Over the years, in-silico modeling has become a valuable tool for predicting drug-drug interactions.
