Abstract
To assess the diagnostic utility of bone turnover markers (BTMs) and demographic variables for identifying individuals with osteoporosis. A cross-sectional study involving 280 participants was conducted. Serum BTM values were obtained from 88 patients with osteoporosis and 192 controls without osteoporosis. Six machine learning models, including extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), light gradient boosting machine (LGBM), CatBoost, random forest, support vector machine, and k-nearest neighbors, were employed to evaluate osteoporosis diagnosis. The performance measures included the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), F1-score, and accuracy. After AUROC optimization, LGBM exhibited the highest AUROC of 0.706. Post F1-score optimization, LGBM's F1-score was improved from 0.50 to 0.65. Combining the top three optimized models (LGBM, XGBoost, and CatBoost) resulted in an AUROC of 0.706, an F1-score of 0.65, and an accuracy of 0.73. BTMs, along with age and sex, were found to contribute significantly to osteoporosis diagnosis. This study demonstrates the potential of machine learning models utilizing BTMs and demographic variables for diagnosing preexisting osteoporosis. The findings highlight the clinical relevance of accessible clinical data in osteoporosis assessment, providing a promising tool for early diagnosis and management.
