Construction of a short-term prognostic model for patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis complicated by acute-on-chronic liver failure based on machine learning
To construct a predictive model for the 90-day prognosis of patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis complicated by acute-on-chronic liver failure(ACLF),and to assess its predictive efficacy.
Methods
2
A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 218 patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis complicated by ACLF who were admitted to The General Hospital of Western Theater Command from January 2015 to January 2023,and these patients were randomly divided into a training set with 153 patients and a validation set with 65 patients at a ratio of 7∶3,with the training set used for model construction and the validation set for model validation. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO) regression analysis was used to identify the key variables associated with prognosis,and 10 machine learning algorithms were used to construct a predictive model for the 90-day short-term prognosis of patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis complicated by ACLF,including logistic regression model,gradient boosting machine(GBM),random forest,k-nearest neighbor(KNN),and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM). The receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was plotted,and the area under the ROC curve(AUC),accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,and F1-score of different models were compared to assess their predictive efficacy. Shapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP) was used to analyze and rank the contribution of key variables to the prediction results of the optimal model.
Results
2
Six variables were identified by LASSO regression,and 10 machine learning models were constructed based on these variables,among which the LightGBM model showed the optimal predictive performance,with an AUC of 0.813 and an accuracy of 0.769. The SHAP plots showed that total bilirubin had the greatest importance,followed by international normalized ratio,hepatic encephalopathy,white blood cell count,age,and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
Conclusion
2
This study successfully constructed the models for predicting the 90-day prognosis of patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis complicated by ACLF,among which the LightGBM model has the best predictive performance and can help to identify high-risk patients and provide a basis for clinical decision-making and intervention.
