Abstract
Objective: To develop machine learning (ML) models for assessing the pretest probability of intact coronary arteries (CA) in patients with non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).
Materials and methods. A single-center prospective study included 257 patients with NSTEMI who underwent invasive coronary angiography (ICA). Clinical and demographic characteristics, laboratory data, electrocardiogram and echocardiogram results were analyzed. ML methods, including multivariate logistic regression and stratified 10-fold cross-validation, were used to develop predictive models for pre-test diagnosis of intact CA.
Results. ICA revealed intact CA in 13.2% of patients. A multivariate logistic regression-based ML model exhibited the highest prognostic accuracy (AUC = 0.87), with the following predictors: age, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, aortic root diameter, total protein concentration, total bilirubin, blood monocyte count, ST-segment depression, and fibrinogen level.
Conclusion. Using multifactorial ML models improves the accuracy of the pretest diagnosis of intact CA in patients with NSTEMI. Thus, personalized treatment strategies can be selected for patients with this disease phenotype.
