Abstract
Introduction: Sarcopenia is associated with significant cardiovascular risk, and death in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). Three tools are used for diagnosing sarcopenia. The evaluation of muscle mass requires dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) or computed tomography (CT), which is labor-intensive and relatively expensive. This study aimed to use simple clinical information to develop a machine learning (ML)-based prediction model of PD sarcopenia.
Methods: According to the newly revised Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia (AWGS2019), patients were subjected to complete sarcopenia screening, including appendicular skeletal muscle mass, grip strength, and five-time chair stand time test. Simple clinical information such as general information, dialysis-related indices, irisin and other laboratory indices, and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) data were collected. All data were randomly split into training (70%) and testing (30%) sets. Difference, correlation, univariate, and multivariate analyses were used to identify core features significantly associated with PD sarcopenia.
Result: 12 core features (C), namely, grip strength, body mass index (BMI), total body water value, irisin, extracellular water/total body water, fat-free mass index, phase angle, albumin/globulin, blood phosphorus, total cholesterol, triglyceride, and prealbumin were excavated for model construction. Two ML models, the neural network (NN), and support vector machine (SVM) were selected with tenfold cross-validation to determine the optimal parameter. The C-SVM model showed a higher area under the curve (AUC) of 0.82 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.67-1.00), with a highest specificity of 0.96, sensitivity of 0.91, positive predictive value (PPV) of 0.96, and negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.91.
Conclusion: The ML model effectively predicted PD sarcopenia and has clinical potential to be used as a convenient sarcopenia screening tool.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Dialysis is a bimonthly publication focusing exclusively on cutting-edge clinical aspects of dialysis therapy. Besides publishing papers by the most respected names in the field of dialysis, the Journal has unique useful features, all designed to keep you current:
-Fellows Forum
-Dialysis rounds
-Editorials
-Opinions
-Briefly noted
-Summary and Comment
-Guest Edited Issues
-Special Articles
Virtually everything you read in Seminars in Dialysis is written or solicited by the editors after choosing the most effective of nine different editorial styles and formats. They know that facts, speculations, ''how-to-do-it'' information, opinions, and news reports all play important roles in your education and the patient care you provide.
Alternate issues of the journal are guest edited and focus on a single clinical topic in dialysis.
