The occurrence of acute kidney injury in sepsis represents a common complication in hospitalized and critically injured patients, which is usually associated with an inauspicious prognosis. Thus, additional consequences, for instance, the risk of developing chronic kidney disease, can be coupled with significantly higher mortality. To intervene in advance in high-risk patients, improve poor prognosis, and further enhance the success rate of resuscitation, a diagnostic grading standard of acute kidney injury is employed to quantify. In the article, an artificial intelligence-based multimodal ultrasound imaging technique is conceived by incorporating conventional ultrasound, ultrasonography, and shear wave elastography examination approaches. The acquired focal lesion images in the kidney lumen are mapped into a knowledge map and then injected into feature mining of a multicenter clinical dataset to accomplish risk prediction for the occurrence of acute kidney injury. The clinical decision curve demonstrated that applying the constructed model can help patients whose threshold values range between 0.017 and 0.89 probabilities. Additionally, the metrics of model sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) are computed as 67.9%, 82.48%, 76.86%, and 0.692%, respectively, which confirms that multimodal ultrasonography not only improves the diagnostic sensitivity of the constructed model but also dramatically raises the risk prediction capability, thus illustrating that the predictive model possesses promising validity and accuracy metrics.
脓毒症中急性肾损伤的发生是住院患者和重症伤者的常见并发症,通常与不良预后相关。因此,诸如发展为慢性肾病的风险等额外后果,可能会伴随着显著更高的死亡率。为了对高危患者进行提前干预、改善不良预后并进一步提高复苏成功率,采用急性肾损伤的诊断分级标准进行量化。在本文中,通过整合传统超声、超声成像和剪切波弹性成像检查方法,构思了一种基于人工智能的多模态超声成像技术。将获取的肾腔内局灶性病变图像映射到知识图谱中,然后注入多中心临床数据集的特征挖掘中,以完成急性肾损伤发生的风险预测。临床决策曲线表明,应用构建的模型对阈值概率在0.017至0.89之间的患者有帮助。此外,模型的敏感性、特异性、准确性和曲线下面积(AUC)指标分别计算为67.9%、82.48%、76.86%和0.692%,这证实了多模态超声不仅提高了构建模型的诊断敏感性,还显著提高了风险预测能力,从而表明该预测模型具有良好的有效性和准确性指标。
