Objective: Although many clinical metrics are associated with proximity to decompensation in heart failure (HF), none are individually accurate enough to risk-stratify HF patients on a patient-by-patient basis. The dire consequences of this inaccuracy in risk stratification have profoundly lowered the clinical threshold for application of high-risk surgical intervention, such as ventricular assist device placement. Machine learning can detect non-intuitive classifier patterns that allow for innovative combination of patient feature predictive capability. A machine learning-based clinical tool to identify proximity to catastrophic HF deterioration on a patient-specific basis would enable more efficient direction of high-risk surgical intervention to those patients who have the most to gain from it, while sparing others. Synthetic electronic health record (EHR) data are statistically indistinguishable from the original protected health information, and can be analyzed as if they were original data but without any privacy concerns. We demonstrate that synthetic EHR data can be easily accessed and analyzed and are amenable to machine learning analyses.Methods: We developed synthetic data from EHR data of 26,575 HF patients admitted to a single institution during the decade ending on 12/31/2018. Twenty-seven clinically-relevant features were synthesized and utilized in supervised deep learning and machine learning algorithms (i.e., deep neural networks [DNN], random forest [RF], and logistic regression [LR]) to explore their ability to predict 1-year mortality by five-fold cross validation methods. We conducted analyses leveraging features from prior to/at and after/at the time of HF diagnosis.Results: The area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the performance of the three models: the mean AUC was 0.80 for DNN, 0.72 for RF, and 0.74 for LR. Age, creatinine, body mass index, and blood pressure levels were especially important features in predicting death within 1-year among HF patients.Conclusions: Machine learning models have considerable potential to improve accuracy in mortality prediction, such that high-risk surgical intervention can be applied only in those patients who stand to benefit from it. Access to EHR-based synthetic data derivatives eliminates risk of exposure of EHR data, speeds time-to-insight, and facilitates data sharing. As more clinical, imaging, and contractile features with proven predictive capability are added to these models, the development of a clinical tool to assist in timing of intervention in surgical candidates may be possible.

Background: Deep Learning (DL) has not been well-established as a method to identify high-risk patients among patients with heart failure (HF). Objectives: This study aimed to use DL models to predict hospitalizations, worsening HF events, and 30-day and 90-day readmissions in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Methods: We analyzed the data of adult HFrEF patients from the IBM® MarketScan® Commercial and Medicare Supplement databases between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2017. A sequential model architecture based on bi-directional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) layers was utilized. For DL models to predict HF hospitalizations and worsening HF events, we utilized two study designs: with and without a buffer window. For comparison, we also tested multiple traditional machine learning models including logistic regression, random forest, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). Model performance was assessed by area under the curve (AUC) values, precision, and recall on an independent testing dataset. Results: A total of 47 498 HFrEF patients were included; 9427 with at least one HF hospitalization. The best AUCs of DL models without a buffer window in predicting HF hospitalizations and worsening HF events in the total patient cohort were 0.977 and 0.972; with a 7-day buffer window the best AUCs were 0.573 and 0.608, respectively. The best AUCs in predicting 30- and 90-day readmissions in all adult patients were 0.597 and 0.614, respectively. An AUC of 0.861 was attained for prediction of 90-day readmission in patients aged 18-64. For all outcomes assessed, the DL approach outperformed traditional machine learning models. Discussion: The DL approach can automate feature engineering during the model learning, which can increase the clinical applicability and lead to comparable or better model performance. However, the lack of granular clinical data, and sample size and imbalance issues may have limited the model’s performance. Conclusions: A DL approach using Bi-LSTM was shown to be a feasible and useful tool to predict HF-related outcomes. This study can help inform the future development and deployment of predictive tools to identify high-risk HFrEF patients and ultimately facilitate targeted interventions in clinical practice.

The study presents data of different authors, as well as its own data on the frequency of multiple trisomies among the early reproductive losses in the I trimester of pregnancy and live fetuses in pregnant women at high risk of chromosomal abnormalities (CA) in I and II trimesters of gestation. The objective: determining the frequency of occurrence of double (DT) and multiple trisomies (MT) among the early reproductive losses in the I trimester of pregnancy and live fetuses in pregnant women at high risk of occurrence of HA in I and II trimesters of gestation; establishment of the most common combinations of diesel fuel and the timing of their deaths compared with single regular trisomy; comparative assessment materinskogo age with single, double and multiple trisomies. Patients and methods. During the period from 1997 to 2016, the first (primary) group of products in 1808 the concept of missed abortion (ST) of I trimester was formed from women who live in Dnepropetrovsk, Zaporozhye, Kirovograd, Cherkasy, Kherson, Mykolaiv regions. The average term of the ST was 8±3 weeks. The average age of women was 29±2 years. The second group (control) consisted of 1572 sample product concepts received during medical abortion in women (mostly residents of Krivoy Rog) in the period of 5-11 weeks of pregnancy, the average age was 32 years. The third group was made prenatally karyotyped fruits (n = 9689) pregnant women with high risk of HA of the above regions of Ukraine, directed the Centre to invasive prenatal diagnosis for individual indications: maternal age, changes in the fetus by ultrasound (characteristic malformations and echo markers HA) and high risk of HA on the results of the combined prenatal screening I and II trimesters. From 11 th to 14 th week of pregnancy, chorionic villus sampling was performed (n=1329), with the 16th week – platsentotsentez (n=2240), 18 th and 24 th week – amniocentesis (n=6120). Results. A comparative evaluation of maternal age and the prevalence anembriony among multiple trisomies. Analyzed 13,069 karyotyped embryonic and fetal I-II trimester of which have found 40 cases of multiple trisomies – 31 cases in the group in 1808 missed abortion (2.84% of total HA), 3 cases including 1 572 induced medabortov and 7 cases during 9689 prenatal research (0.51% of HA). Determined to share the double trisomies preembrionalny, fetal, early, middle and late periods of fetal development. Conclusion. There were no significant differences either in terms of destruction of single and multiple trisomies or in maternal age or in fractions anembrionalnyh pregnancies in these groups. Key words: multiple trisomies, double trisomy, missed abortion, prenatal diagnosis.

Abstract- Deep learning is an emerging research area in machine learning and pattern recognition field which has been presented with the goal of drawing Machine Learning nearer to one of its unique objectives, Artificial Intelligence. It tries to mimic the human brain, which is capable of processing and learning from the complex input data and solving different kinds of complicated tasks well. Deep learning (DL) basically based on a set of supervised and unsupervised algorithms that attempt to model higher level abstractions in data and make it self-learning for hierarchical representation for classification. In the recent years, it has attracted much attention due to its state-of-the-art performance in diverse areas like object perception, speech recognition, computer vision, collaborative filtering and natural language processing. This paper will present a survey on different deep learning techniques for remote sensing image classification.
