Renal failure occurs when the kidneys lose their ability to filter waste products from the blood effectively. It can be classified into two types: acute renal failure (ARF) and chronic renal failure (CRF).
Acute kidney injury develops suddenly and can be caused by pre-renal causes (e.g., hypovolemia, shock), intrinsic renal causes (e.g., acute tubular necrosis), or post-renal causes (e.g., urinary obstruction). In contrast, chronic renal failure progresses gradually over time and is often...

Kaplan-Meier Approach

The Kaplan-Meier estimator is a non-parametric method used to estimate the survival function from time-to-event data. In medical research, it is frequently employed to measure the proportion of patients surviving for a certain period after treatment. This estimator is fundamental in analyzing time-to-event data, making it indispensable in clinical trials, epidemiological studies, and reliability engineering. By estimating survival probabilities, researchers can evaluate treatment effectiveness,...

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Medical Informatics
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • End-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis (HD) is associated with high mortality and significant economic burden.
  • Accurate prediction of mortality risk in maintenance HD patients is essential for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a novel two-stage protocol for predicting mortality risk in maintenance HD patients using electronic health record (EHR) data.
  • To enhance the predictive performance of a multilayer perceptron (MLP) model through an Active Contrastive Learning (ACL) method.

Main Methods:

  • A two-stage prediction protocol was implemented, starting with an MLP model for initial risk assessment.
  • An Active Contrastive Learning (ACL) method was employed in the second stage to optimize sample selection and the representation space, thereby improving prediction accuracy.

Main Results:

  • The proposed ACL method demonstrated superior performance compared to other approaches.
  • The model achieved an average F1-score of 0.820 and an average Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) of 0.853.

Conclusions:

  • The developed two-stage protocol, integrating MLP and ACL on EHR data, provides an effective method for predicting mortality risk in HD patients.
  • This approach is generalizable to cross-sectional EHR data analysis and applicable to predicting outcomes in other disease contexts.
