Clinical Modelling of RVHF Using Pre-Operative Variables: A Direct and Inverse Feature Extraction Technique

Abstract

Right ventricular heart failure (RVHF) mostly occurs due to the failure of the left-side of the heart. RVHF is a serious disease that leads to swelling of the abdomen, ankles, liver, kidneys, and gastrointestinal (GI) tract. A total of 506 heart-failure subjects from the Faculty of Medicine, Cardiovascular Surgery Department, Ege University, Turkey, who suffered from a severe heart failure and are currently receiving support from a ventricular assistance device, were involved in the current study. Therefore, the current study explored the application of both the direct and inverse modelling approaches, based on the correlation analysis feature extraction performance of various pre-operative variables of the subjects, for the prediction of RVHF. The study equally employs both single and hybrid paradigms for the prediction of RVHF using different pre-operative variables. The visualized and quantitative performance of the direct and inverse modelling approach indicates the robust prediction performance of the hybrid paradigms over the single techniques in both the calibration and validation steps. Whereby, the quantitative performance of the hybrid techniques, based on the Nash–Sutcliffe coefficient (NC) metric, depicts its superiority over the single paradigms by up to 58.7%/75.5% and 80.3%/51% for the calibration/validation phases in the direct and inverse modelling approaches, respectively. Moreover, to the best knowledge of the authors, this is the first study to report the implementation of direct and inverse modelling on clinical data. The findings of the current study indicates the possibility of applying these novel hybridised paradigms for the prediction of RVHF using pre-operative variables.

Novel Hybridized Computational Paradigms Integrated with Five Stand-Alone Algorithms for Clinical Prediction of HCV Status among Patients: A Data-Driven Technique

“…Each factor that fails to make contributions to and meet the model’s procedure might be removed, one by one, to minimize their influences [ 31 ]. The principle of ILR might be shown using MLR [ 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. The method of integrating or interacting a fixed input from LR is known as interactive regression [ 37 ].…”

“…The variables include Fever Symptom, Temperature, Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT), White Blood Cell Count (WBC), Red Blood Cell Count (RBC), Hemoglobin Level, Hematocrit, Mean Cell Volume, Mean Corp Hb, Mean Cell Hb Conc, Platelet Count, Platelet Distribution Width, Neutrophils Percent, Lymphocytes Percent, Mean Platelet Volume, Mixed Cells Percent, Neutrophils Count, Lymphocytes Count, Mixed Cells Count, RBC Distribution Width Percent, and Microscopy. The dependent variable or output is the microscopy, which is similar to the method implored by [19] in their study. Table 2 summarizes the details of the criteria and their values in binary 0 and 1.…”
