Date Submitted: Sep 14, 2024
Open Peer Review Period: Sep 19, 2024 - Nov 14, 2024
(closed for review but you can still tweet)

NOTE: This is an unreviewed Preprint

Warning: This is a unreviewed preprint (What is a preprint?). Readers are warned that the document has not been peer-reviewed by expert/patient reviewers or an academic editor, may contain misleading claims, and is likely to undergo changes before final publication, if accepted, or may have been rejected/withdrawn (a note "no longer under consideration" will appear above).

Peer review me: Readers with interest and expertise are encouraged to sign up as peer-reviewer, if the paper is within an open peer-review period (in this case, a "Peer Review Me" button to sign up as reviewer is displayed above). All preprints currently open for review are listed here. Outside of the formal open peer-review period we encourage you to tweet about the preprint.

Citation: Please cite this preprint only for review purposes or for grant applications and CVs (if you are the author).

Final version: If our system detects a final peer-reviewed "version of record" (VoR) published in any journal, a link to that VoR will appear below. Readers are then encourage to cite the VoR instead of this preprint.

Settings: If you are the author, you can login and change the preprint display settings, but the preprint URL/DOI is supposed to be stable and citable, so it should not be removed once posted.

Submit: To post your own preprint, simply submit to any JMIR journal, and choose the appropriate settings to expose your submitted version as preprint.

Warning: This is an author submission that is not peer-reviewed or edited. Preprints - unless they show as "accepted" - should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.

ABSTRACT

Background:

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability in all age groups, placing a heavy burden on society and families,serum albumin levels have a significant impact on mortality and length of hospitalization patients. This study was made to develop a predictive model based on Computed Tomography (CT) and clinical parameters to explore the predictable power of the model in the development of hypoproteinemia with TBI patients.

Objective:

To explore the predictable power of the model in the development of hypoproteinemia with TBI patients.

Methods:

A total of 72 TBI patients were prospectively recruited and confirmed as hypoproteinemia in 26 cases. A cranial CT and clinical parameters such as age, gender, admission Glasgow score were collected to establish the clinical model. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) was applied to extract radiological features. Then a total of five different machine learning methods (RF, SVM, GNB, XGB, KNN) were used to establish the prediction model of radiomics. Finally, a combined model: clinical-radiological was constructed. The average area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the performance of each model.

Results:

Comparing these three different models, we found that the radiomic models combined with clinical parameters showed the best performance, which had an AUC with 0.8704 compared with clinical model only AUC=0.8512 and radiomics model only AUC=0.7040, respectively.

Conclusions:

The model of radiomics features combined with clinical parameters is superior to the radiomics model and clinical model alone, and the model of radiomics combined with clinical parameters is a useful tool for predicting the occurrence of hypoproteinemia in patients with traumatic brain injury.
