Introduction.
Mobile health (mHealth) integrates mobile devices into healthcare, enabling remote monitoring, data collection, and personalized interventions. Machine Learning (ML), a subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI), can use mHealth data to confirm or extend domain knowledge by finding associations within the data, i.e., with the goal of improving healthcare decisions. In this work, two data collection techniques were used for mHealth data fed into ML systems: Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS), which is a collaborative data gathering approach, and Ecological Momentary Assessments (EMA), which capture real-time individual experiences within the individual’s common environments using questionnaires and sensors. We collected EMA and MCS data on tinnitus and COVID-19. About 15 % of the world’s population suffers from tinnitus.
Materials & Methods.
This thesis investigates the challenges of ML systems when using MCS and EMA data. It asks: How can ML confirm or broad domain knowledge? Domain knowledge refers to expertise and understanding in a specific field, gained through experience and education. Are ML systems always superior to simple heuristics and if yes, how can one reach explainable AI (XAI) in the presence of mHealth data? An XAI method enables a human to understand why a model makes certain predictions. Finally, which guidelines can be beneficial for the use of ML within the mHealth domain? In tinnitus research, ML discerns gender, temperature, and season-related variations among patients. In the realm of COVID-19, we collaboratively designed a COVID-19 check app for public education, incorporating EMA data to offer informative feedback on COVID-19-related matters. This thesis uses seven EMA datasets with more than 250,000 assessments. Our analyses revealed a set of challenges: App user over-representation, time gaps, identity ambiguity, and operating system specific rounding errors, among others. Our systematic review of 450 medical studies assessed prior utilization of XAI methods.
Results.
ML models predict gender and tinnitus perception, validating gender-linked tinnitus disparities. Using season and temperature to predict tinnitus shows the association of these variables with tinnitus. Multiple assessments of one app user can constitute a group. Neglecting these groups in data sets leads to model overfitting. In select instances, heuristics outperform ML models, highlighting the need for domain expert consultation to unveil hidden groups or find simple heuristics.
Conclusion.
This thesis suggests guidelines for mHealth related data analyses and improves estimates for ML performance. Close communication with medical domain experts to identify latent user subsets and incremental benefits of ML is essential.
Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war es zu untersuchen, ob anhand geometrischer Merkmale der HWK im Kindesalter eine sichere individuelle Vorhersage der Morphologie der HWK zum Ende der Entwicklung möglich ist. Hierdurch könnte eine Individualisierung der CVM-Methode und somit eine Einschätzung des bereits verstrichenen Wachstums erfolgen.
Zu diesem Zweck wurden insgesamt 1377 FRS-Aufnahmen von 267 Patienten – 110 weibliche und 157 männliche – aus dem Archiv der Poliklinik für Kieferorthopädie des Universitätsklinikums Würzburg digitalisiert und untersucht. Die HWK wurden im Programm OnyxCeph (Herst.: Image Instruments GmbH) quantifiziert und die berechneten Werte mit der Software SPSS statistisch ausgewertet. Mittels linearer Regressionen wurde versucht, anhand der Morphologie der Wirbelkörper vor dem puberalen Wachstumsschub auf die Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter zu schließen. Zur Illustrierung wurden Streudiagramm und die dazugehörigen Abfolgen von Röntgenbildern dargestellt.
Eine Schätzung der Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter würde bei den separat betrachteten Parametern und bei einer gemeinsamen Betrachtung der Parameter kaum zu korrekten Einschätzungen führen.
Die Streudiagramme mit den Bilderabfolgen stützen diese These ebenfalls und illustrieren die mögliche Fehleinschätzung der Geometrie.
Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen erneut, dass die Geometrie der HWK im Erwachsenenalter sehr variabel ist, wie komplex die Entwicklung der HWK ist und dass anhand ihrer Geometrie im Kindesalter keine sichere Einschätzung der skelettalen Reife möglich ist.
Eine Individualisierung der CVM-Methode ist anhand der in dieser Studie untersuchten Parameter nicht möglich. Somit lässt sich schlussfolgern, dass die CVM-Methode nicht als alleinige Methode zur präzisen skelettalen Alterseinschätzung verlässlich genutzt werden kann, sondern für eine sichere Beurteilung weitere Reifeindikatoren hinzugezogen werden sollten. Allerdings sollten hierzu zusätzliche radiologische Untersuchungen, wie beispielsweise die Handröntgenaufnahme, nur dann durchgeführt werden, wenn diese dem ALARA-Prinzip entsprechen.
Beinahe jeder dritte ischämische Schlaganfall ist ursächlich auf Erkrankungen des Herzens zurückzuführen. Daher empfehlen Leitlinien allen Patienten und Patientinnen, bei denen eine kardioembolische Ätiologie des Schlaganfalls vermutet wird und bei denen ein Vorhofflimmern nicht bereits bekannt ist, als Teil der Routinediagnostik eine echokardiographische Untersuchung, um Hinweise auf die Ätiologie des ischämischen Schlaganfalls zu gewinnen und um gegebenenfalls Maßnahmen zur Sekundärprävention einleiten zu können. Jedoch ist der Zugang zu solchen echokardiographischen Untersuchungen oftmals limitiert, besonders für Patienten und Patientinnen auf Stroke Units, denn dort überschreitet die Nachfrage häufig die verfügbaren personellen und instrumentellen Kapazitäten. Zudem stellt der Transport bettlägeriger Patienten und Patientinnen in andere Abteilungen eine Belastung dar.
Daher stellt sich die Frage, ob zukünftig im Rahmen wissenschaftlicher Studien POC-Echokardiographie-Geräte zur Diagnostik bestimmter Herzerkrankungen einschließlich einer systolischen Dysfunktion bei Patienten und Patientinnen mit ischämischem Schlaganfall eingesetzt werden können, mit dem Ziel Patienten und Patientinnen zu identifizieren, die von einer erweiterten echokardiographischen Untersuchung profitieren könnten. Im Rahmen der vorliegenden prospektiven Validierungsstudie untersuchte eine Studentin 78 Patienten und Patientinnen mit akutem ischämischem Schlaganfall mithilfe eines POC-Echokardiographie-Geräts auf der Stroke Unit der Neurologischen Abteilung des Universitätsklinikums Würzburg. Im Anschluss daran erhielten alle 78 Patienten und Patientinnen eine Kontrolluntersuchung durch eine erfahrene Echokardiographie-Raterin mithilfe eines SE-Geräts in einem externen Herzzentrum.
Die diagnostischen Qualitäten des POC-Echokardiographie-Geräts für Forschungszwecke zur fokussierten kardialen Diagnostik nach ischämischem Schlaganfall im Vergleich zu einer SE-Untersuchung konnten mithilfe der Validierungsstudie bestätigt werden. Es zeigte sich insbesondere, dass die POC-Echokardiographie für die Detektion einer LVEF≤55% mit einer Sensitivität von 100% geeignet war.
Um zu evaluieren, ob sich das POC-Echokardiographie-Gerät in Zukunft auch in der klinischen Praxis als Screeninginstrument eignet, mit dem Ziel eine individuelle Behandlung von Schlaganfallpatienten und -patientinnen zu gewährleisten, müssen größere, prospektive Studien durchgeführt werden, in denen die Fallzahl für bestimmte kardiologische Erkrankungen ausreichend hoch ist.
Wenige Publikationen beschäftigen sich mit der diastolischen Dysfunktion (DD) bei Schlaganfallpatienten. Um diese Datenlücke zu bearbeiten, wurden, im Rahmen der SICFAIL-Kohortenstudie, Schlaganfallpatienten hinsichtlich des Vorhandenseins einer diastolischen Funktionsstörung in Anlehnung an, zum Zeitpunkt des Verfassens dieser Arbeit, aktuelle Empfehlungen anhand echokardiographischer Parameter eingeteilt und charakterisiert. Zudem konnten Erkenntnisse über Einflussfaktoren gewonnen werden, die mit einer DD assoziiert sind.
Dabei zeigte sich, dass Schlaganfallpatienten mit einer diastolischen Funktionsstörung älter sind als Schlaganfallpatienten ohne DD und dass mit steigendem Lebensalter auch die Chance für eine DD ansteigt. Zudem bestand häufiger eine medikamentös behandelte aber auch eine unbehandelte arterielle Hypertonie, die mit dem Auftreten einer DD assoziiert ist. Diese Erkenntnisse decken sich mit den Ergebnissen verschiedener Arbeitsgruppen, die sich mit dem Vorkommen der DD in der Allgemeinbevölkerung beschäftigt haben.
Die im Rahmen dieser Arbeit ermittelte Prävalenz der diastolischen Funktionsstörung bei Schlaganfallpatienten ist deutlich niedriger als diejenige, die in anderen Forschungsarbeiten herausgefunden wurde. Unterschiedliche Definitionen der DD können ein Grund dafür sein.
Es bedarf aber weitere Forschungsarbeit in diese Richtung genauso wie eine stärkere Etablierung der aktuellen Definitionsgrundlagen der DD um umfassende und einheitliche Erkenntnisse über die diastolische Funktionsstörung bei Schlaganfallpatienten und auch in der Allgemeinbevölkerung zu erlangen. Zudem sollte ein weiteres Forschungsziel sein, mögliche Einflüsse der DD auf das Outcome der Patienten nach ischämischem Schlaganfall zu identifizieren, um diese gezielt in die Erarbeitung von Präventionsmaßnahmen aufzunehmen.
We assume that a specific health constraint, e.g., a certain aspect of bodily function or quality of life that is measured by a variable X, is absent (or irrelevant) in a healthy reference population (Ref0), and it is materially present and precisely measured in a diseased reference population (Ref1). We further assume that some amount of this constraint of interest is suspected to be present in a population under study (SP). In order to quantify this issue, we propose the introduction of an intuitive measure, the population comparison index (PCI), that relates the mean value of X in population SP to the mean values of X in populations Ref0 and Ref1. This measure is defined as PCI[X] = (mean[X|SP] − mean[X|Ref0])/(mean[X|Ref1] − mean[X|Ref0]) × 100[%], where mean[X|.] is the average value of X in the respective group of individuals. For interpretation, PCI[X] ≈ 0 indicates that the values of X in the population SP are similar to those in population Ref0, and hence, the impairment measured by X is not materially present in the individuals in population SP. On the other hand, PCI[X] ≈ 100 means that the individuals in SP exhibit values of X comparable to those occurring in Ref1, i.e., the constraint of interest is equally present in populations SP and Ref1. A value of 0 < PCI[X] < 100 indicates that a certain percentage of the constraint is present in SP, and it is more than in Ref0 but less than in Ref1. A value of PCI[X] > 100 means that population SP is even more affected by the constraint than population Ref1.
Now that mechanical thrombectomy has substantially improved outcomes after large-vessel occlusion stroke in up to every second patient, futile reperfusion wherein successful recanalization is not followed by a favorable outcome is moving into focus. Unfortunately, blood-based biomarkers, which identify critical stages of hemodynamically compromised yet reperfused tissue, are lacking. We recently reported that hypoxia induces the expression of endoglin, a TGF-β co-receptor, in human brain endothelium in vitro. Subsequent reoxygenation resulted in shedding. Our cell model suggests that soluble endoglin compromises the brain endothelial barrier function. To evaluate soluble endoglin as a potential biomarker of reperfusion (-injury) we analyzed its concentration in 148 blood samples of patients with acute stroke due to large-vessel occlusion. In line with our in vitro data, systemic soluble endoglin concentrations were significantly higher in patients with successful recanalization, whereas hypoxia alone did not induce local endoglin shedding, as analyzed by intra-arterial samples from hypoxic vasculature. In patients with reperfusion, higher concentrations of soluble endoglin additionally indicated larger infarct volumes at admission. In summary, we give translational evidence that the sequence of hypoxia and subsequent reoxygenation triggers the release of vasoactive soluble endoglin in large-vessel occlusion stroke and can serve as a biomarker for severe ischemia with ensuing recanalization/reperfusion.
(1) Background: The health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors >10 years post-diagnosis is understudied. We aimed to compare the HRQOL of CRC survivors 14–24 years post-diagnosis to that of age- and sex-matched non-cancer controls, stratified by demographic and clinical factors. (2) Methods: We used data from 506 long-term CRC survivors and 1489 controls recruited from German population-based multi-regional studies. HRQOL was assessed with the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Core-30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) questionnaire. We estimated differences in the HRQOL of CRC survivors and controls with multiple regression, adjusted for age at survey, sex, and education, where appropriate. (3) Results: CRC survivors reported poorer social functioning but better health status/QOL than controls. CRC survivors, in general, had higher levels of symptom burden, and in particular diarrhea and constipation, regardless of demographic or clinical factors. In stratified analyses, HRQOL differed by age, sex, cancer type, and having a permanent stoma. (4) Conclusions: Although CRC survivors may have a comparable health status/QOL to controls 14–24 years after diagnosis, they still live with persistent bowel dysfunction that can negatively impact aspects of functioning. Healthcare providers should provide timely and adapted follow-up care to ameliorate potential long-term suffering.
The Internet of Things (IoT) enables a variety of smart applications, including smart home, smart manufacturing, and smart city. By enhancing Business Process Management Systems with IoT capabilities, the execution and monitoring of business processes can be significantly improved. Providing a holistic support for modeling, executing and monitoring IoT-driven processes, however, constitutes a challenge. Existing process modeling and process execution languages, such as BPMN 2.0, are unable to fully meet the IoT characteristics (e.g., asynchronicity and parallelism) of IoT-driven processes. In this article, we present BPMNE4IoT—A holistic framework for modeling, executing and monitoring IoT-driven processes. We introduce various artifacts and events based on the BPMN 2.0 metamodel that allow realizing the desired IoT awareness of business processes. The framework is evaluated along two real-world scenarios from two different domains. Moreover, we present a user study for comparing BPMNE4IoT and BPMN 2.0. In particular, this study has confirmed that the BPMNE4IoT framework facilitates the support of IoT-driven processes.
Background
Patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) with and without diabetes mellitus have an increased risk of recurrent events requiring multifactorial secondary prevention of cardiovascular risk factors. We compared prevalences of cardiovascular risk factors and its determinants including lifestyle, pharmacotherapy and diabetes mellitus among patients with chronic CHD examined within the fourth and fifth EUROASPIRE surveys (EA-IV, 2012–13; and EA-V, 2016–17) in Germany.
Methods
The EA initiative iteratively conducts European-wide multicenter surveys investigating the quality of secondary prevention in chronic CHD patients aged 18 to 79 years. The data collection in Germany was performed during a comprehensive baseline visit at study centers in Würzburg (EA-IV, EA-V), Halle (EA-V), and Tübingen (EA-V).
Results
384 EA-V participants (median age 69.0 years, 81.3% male) and 536 EA-IV participants (median age 68.7 years, 82.3% male) were examined. Comparing EA-IV and EA-V, no relevant differences in risk factor prevalence and lifestyle changes were observed with the exception of lower LDL cholesterol levels in EA-V. Prevalence of unrecognized diabetes was significantly lower in EA-V as compared to EA-IV (11.8% vs. 19.6%) while the proportion of prediabetes was similarly high in the remaining population (62.1% vs. 61.0%).
Conclusion
Between 2012 and 2017, a modest decrease in LDL cholesterol levels was observed, while no differences in blood pressure control and body weight were apparent in chronic CHD patients in Germany. Although the prevalence of unrecognized diabetes decreased in the later study period, the proportion of normoglycemic patients was low. As pharmacotherapy appeared fairly well implemented, stronger efforts towards lifestyle interventions, mental health programs and cardiac rehabilitation might help to improve risk factor profiles in chronic CHD patients.
Die chronische Niereninsuffizienz (CKD) gilt als wichtiger prognostischer Faktor bei Patienten mit koronarer Herzerkrankung (KHK). Das Bewusstsein (Awareness) für das Vorliegen einer CKD bei Ärzten wie bei Patienten kann bei der Therapie von KHK-Patienten eine entscheidende Rolle spielen. Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Beschreibung der zeitlichen Trends der CKD-Prävalenz sowie der Awareness bei KHK-Patienten und Ärzten im Rahmen der EUROASPIRE (EA) V Studie im Studienzentrum Würzburg. EA V ist eine multizentrische Querschnittsstudie der European Society of Cardiology (ESC) zur Untersuchung der Qualität der Sekundärprävention bei KHK-Patienten, die 6-24 Monate vor dem Studienbesuch stationär behandelt wurden. Nierenfunktion und Nierenerkrankung wurden mit der glomerulären Filtrationsrate (eGFR) und der Urin Albumin-Kreatinin-Ratio abgeschätzt und klassifiziert. Die CKD Awareness der Patienten wurde anhand standardisierter Fragen erhoben. Die CKD Awareness der Ärzte wurde über die ICD-10 Codierung in der Patientenakte sowie die Dokumentation im Entlassungsbrief erfasst. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit der Würzburger EUROASPIRE IV (2012/13) Substudie verglichen. In EA V wurden 219 KHK-Patienten (Median 70 Jahre, 81% Männer) in Würzburg eingeschlossen. Bei Studienbesuch betrug die Prävalenz der CKD 32%, davon waren sich 30% der Patienten der CKD bewusst. Bei 26% der 73 Patienten mit während des Index-Krankenhausaufenthaltes apparenter Nierenfunktionseinschränkung wurde diese auch im Entlassungsbrief dokumentiert und bei 80% korrekt in der Patientenakte codiert. Im Vergleich zu EA IV zeigte sich die eingeschränkte Nierenfunktion während des Krankenhausaufenthaltes (p=0,013) und während des Studienbesuchs (p=0,056) häufiger. Bezüglich der CKD Awareness bei Ärzten und Patienten gab es keine signifikanten Unterschiede bezogen auf die gesamten Kohorten. Im Frühstadium G3a zeigte sich eine statistisch signifikant geringere CKD Awareness der Patienten in EA V verglichen mit EA IV. Die CKD ist eine häufige Komorbidität bei KHK-Patienten. Die CKD Awareness ist bei Patienten, aber auch Ärzten niedrig. Aus dieser Konstellation ergeben sich Handlungsaufträge für eine gezielte Aufklärung von Patienten und nachhaltig wirksame Fortbildung der behandelnden Ärzte.
