Late fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a common complication of pregnancy characterized by chronic hypoxia. However, late FGR is in a dilemma of the high incidence but low detection rate. Depending on the non-invasiveness and convenient operation, the routine cardiotocography (CTG) allows continuous monitoring fetal heart rate (FHR) to assess fetal intrauterine stockpiling ability. In this paper, we aimed to explore the FHR pattern of late FGR in routine CTG. For analysis, the FHR features were acquired using routine CTG in a population of 160 healthy and 102 late FGR fetuses published in IEEE Dataport. First, we explored the relationships among FHR features and their importance on late FGR assessment by utilizing hypothesis testing, principal component analysis (PCA) and Spearman correlation analysis. Second, we presented a regression coefficient-based backward-stepwise-selection of association rules analysis (ARA) called backward-stepwise Max-R2 Apriori ARA, to find the optimum itemset that helps diagnose late FGRs from healthy fetuses. The hypothesis testing, PCA and Spearman correlation analysis found eight FHR features were highly relevant to the late FGR. Moreover, the backward-stepwise Max-R2 Apriori ARA validated the correlation and interpretation about FHR features of late FGR. In conclusion, the analysis results are consistent with clinical knowledge on late FGR and help screen late FGR in antepartum fetal monitoring.

Drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction serves as the foundation of new drug findings and drug repositioning. For drugs/targets, the sequence data contains the biological structural information, while the heterogeneous network contains the biochemical functional information. These two types of information describe different aspects of drugs and targets. Due to the complexity of DTI machinery, it is necessary to learn the representation from multiple perspectives. We hereby try to design a way to leverage information from multi-source data to the maximum extent and find a strategy to fuse them. To address the above challenges, we propose a model, named MOVE (short for integrating multi-source information for predicting DTI via cross-view contrastive 1earning), for learning comprehensive representations of each drug and target from multi-source data. MOVE extracts information from the sequence view and the network view, then utilizes a fusion module with auxiliary contrastive learning to facilitate the fusion of representations. Experimental results on the benchmark dataset demonstrate that MOVE is effective in DTI prediction.

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a lifethreatening disorder. The prediction of mortality in PAH patients can play a crucial role in the clinical management of this disease. The prediction of mortality from one modality is a difficult task that may only provide limited performance. Therefore, we propose a multimodal learning approach in this work to predict one-year mortality in PAH patients. We have utilised three modalities, which include extracted numerical imaging features, echo report categorical features, and echo report text features from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) of patients. We have proposed a feature integration module to combine features from multiple modalities. The text features have been extracted from the echo reports using the Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT). An attention mechanism and a weighted summation method are also adopted during the process of feature integration. We have performed different experiments to evaluate the performance of the proposed framework for mortality prediction. The experimental results indicate that we can achieve the best AUC score of 0.89 for predicting one-year mortality by combining all three modalities.

The absence of a conventional association between the cell-cell cohabitation and its emergent dynamics into cliques during development has hindered our understanding of how cell populations proliferate, differentiate, and compete, i.e. the cell ecology. With the recent advancement of the single-cell RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), we can potentially describe such a link by constructing network graphs that characterize the similarity of the gene expression profiles of the cell-specific transcriptional programs, and analyzing these graphs systematically using the summary statistics informed by the algebraic topology. We propose the single-cell topological simplicial analysis (scTSA). Applying this approach to the single-cell gene expression profiles from local networks of cells in different developmental stages with different outcomes reveals a previously unseen topology of cellular ecology. These networks contain an abundance of cliques of single-cell profiles bound into cavities that guide the emergence of more complicated habitation forms. We visualize these ecological patterns with topological simplicial architectures of these networks, compared with the null models. Benchmarked on the single-cell RNA-seq data of zebrafish embryogenesis spanning 38,731 cells, 25 cell types and 12 time steps, our approach highlights the gastrulation as the most critical stage, consistent with consensus in developmental biology. As a nonlinear, model-independent, and unsupervised framework, our approach can also be applied to tracing multi-scale cell lineage, identifying critical stages, or creating pseudo-time series.11For an extended version of this work and a systematic evaluation of our approach, please refer to [1] for more details.

As the most common cause of cancer death, metastasis is a complex process that involves the spread of cancer cells from the original site to other parts of the body. Diagnosis of metastasis is usually confirmed by clinical examinations and imaging, but such diagnosis is made after metastasis occurs. Early detection of metastasis plays an important role in treatment planning, which in turn has an impact on the survival of patients. So far a few methods have been developed to predict lymph node metastasis, but few methods are available for predicting distant metastasis. Motivated by a recently known gene regulation mechanism involving miRNAs, we developed a new method for predicting both lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis. We identified differential correlations of miRNAs and their target RNAs in cancer, and built prediction models using the differential correlations. Testing the method on several types of cancer showed that differential correlations of miRNAs and their target RNAs are much more powerful than expressions of known metastasis predictive genes in predicting distant metastasis as well as lymph node metastasis. Although preliminary, the method developed in this study will be useful in predicting metastasis and thereby in determining treatment options for cancer patients.

Medical images, such as magnetic resonance or computed tomography, are increasingly being used to investigate the genetic architecture of neurological diseases like Alzheimer’s disease, or psychiatric disorders like attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. The quantified global or regional brain imaging measures are commonly known as imaging-specific or -derived phenotypes (IDPs) when conducting genotype-phenotype association studies. Inclusion of whole medical images rather than derived tabular data as IDPs has been done by either a voxelwise approach or a global approach of whole medical images via principal component analysis. Limitations with multiple testing and inability to isolate high variation regions within the principal components arise with either of these approaches. This work proposes a principal component analysis-like localised approach of dimensionality reduction using diffeomorphic morphometry allowing for the selection of distances to model more regional effects. The main benefit of the proposed method is that it can can reduce the dimensionality of the problem considerably in comparison to the medical image’s variability it is describing while grouping spatial information potentially lost in dimensionality reduction techniques like principal component analyses. Moreover, the approach not only allows to include locality in the analysis but can also be used as a generative model to explore the morphometric changes across an axis of particular components of interest. To demonstrate the feasibility of this pipeline for inclusion in a multivariate genome-wide association study, it was applied to 1,359 subjects from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study for traits related to attention-deficit disorder. The results show that the proposed method can identify more specific morphometric features associated with genome regions.

In clinical fights against rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the unique integrated medicine in China involves using biologics of adalimumab, glucocorticoids, and Chinese medicines for better therapeutic effects e.g. anti-inflammation (9.4 days of average hospital stay: 72% reduced C-reactive protein, 71% decreased erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and less side effects e.g. retarded osteoporosis (8.8% RA patients were diagnosed with osteoporosis compared with about 30% onset ratio without Chinese medicines). To uncover the candidate mechanisms of Chinese medicines against RA and osteoporosis, bioinformatics analysis was carried out with hospitalized information, blood tests and microarray data. As a result, three core Chinese medicines identified not only deliver a significant coordinative regulation network against RA inflammation, but also retard osteoporosis with their bioactive compounds, targeted genes/proteins, and genes/proteins involved with RA and osteoporosis.

Modelling infectious disease spreading is crucial for planning effective containment measures, as shown in the COVID-19 pandemic. The effectiveness of planned measures can also be measured regarding saved lives and economic resources. Therefore, introducing methods able to model the evolution and the impact of measures, as well as planning tailored and updated measures, is a crucial step. Existing models for spreading modelling belong to two main classes: (i) compartmental models based on ordinary differential equations and (ii) contact-based models based on a contact structure using an underlining layer to simulate diffusion. Nevertheless, none of these methods can leverage the high computational power of artificial intelligence and deep learning. We propose a novel framework for simulating and analysing disease progression for these methods. The framework is based on the multiscale simulation of the spreading based on using a multiscale contact model built on top of a diffusion model customised by the user. The evolution of the spreading, modelled as a graph with attributed nodes, is then mapped into a latent space through graph embedding. Finally, deep learning models are used in the latent space to analyse and forecast methods without running expensive computational simulations of the contact-based model.

Identifying microbe-drug associations is important to systematically understand a drug’s mechanism of action in the therapeutic application. Since identifying microbe-drug associations is expensive and time-consuming via biological experiments, in this study, we propose a Pre-completion-based Label Propagation (PLP) method (called PLPMDA) to predict microbe-drug associations based on the multi-type similarities. To obtain richer information of drugs and microbes, we calculate drug chemical structure similarity, drug Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) code similarity, microbe functional similarity, microbe sequence similarity and Gaussian Interaction Profile (GIP) kernel similarities of microbes and drugs, and then introduce a non-linear similarity fusion method. Comparing baseline methods, our advantage lies in performing an effective pre-completion step on the initial association matrix from the drug-related and microbe-related information and does not rely on the known drug-microbe associations, which can accelerate the design and discovery of the new drugs. The computational experiment results demonstrate that our proposed approach PLPMDA achieves significantly higher performance than the comparative methods in de novo and cross-validation experiments.

The computational experiment results demonstrate that our proposed approach PLPMDA achieves significantly higher performance than the comparative methods in de novo and cross-validation experiments.","PeriodicalId":210337,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine (BIBM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126221029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
