In medical imaging, edge detection is used to accurately identify and delineate important structures and boundaries inside the images. To improve edge sharpness, edge detection frequently requires the inclusion of low-level features. Herein, a machine learning approach is needed to automate the edge detection of multicellular aggregates of distinctly labeled blood cells within the microcirculation. In this work, the Structured Adaptive Boosting Trees algorithm (AdaBoost.S) is proposed as a contribution to overcome some of the edge detection challenges related to medical images. Algorithm design is based on the observation that edges over an image mask often exhibit special structures and are interdependent. Such structures can be predicted using the features extracted from a bigger image patch that covers the image edge mask. The proposed AdaBoost.S is applied to detect multicellular aggregates within blood vessels from the fluorescence lung intravital images of mice exposed to e-cigarette vapor. The predictive capabilities of this approach for detecting platelet-neutrophil aggregates within the lung blood vessels are evaluated against three conventional machine learning algorithms: Random Forest, XGBoost and Decision Tree. AdaBoost.S exhibits a mean recall, F-score, and precision of 0.81, 0.79, and 0.78, respectively. Compared to all three existing algorithms, AdaBoost.S has statistically better performance for recall and F-score. Although AdaBoost.S does not outperform Random Forest in precision, it remains superior to the XGBoost and Decision Tree algorithms. The proposed AdaBoost.S is widely applicable to analysis of other fluorescence intravital microscopy applications including cancer, infection, and cardiovascular disease.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":18534,"journal":{"name":"Microvascular research","volume":"156 ","pages":"Article 104732"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141988320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These vascular alterations are ascribed, at least in part, to the changes in dermal microvascular endothelial cell functions. However, despite the recognition of vascular normalization as an emerging strategy for the treatment of psoriasis, in-depth studies of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMECs) have been missing. The difficulty of isolation and culture of HDMECs has impeded the study of endothelial dysfunction in psoriasis. Researchers have done a great deal of work to study the abnormal characteristics of keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and leukocytes in psoriatic skin tissue. Recently, with successful isolation of HDMECs from psoriasis, great progress has been made in the elucidation of the pathogenic role of these cells in psoriasis. It is of great therapeutic significance to study the molecular mechanism of HDMECs in psoriasis. We review here the abnormalities of HDMECs in psoriasis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":18534,"journal":{"name":"Microvascular research","volume":"155 ","pages":"Article 104718"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141633896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
