Candidate models including Support Vector Machines, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and XGBoost were assessed by accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-measure, with performance further evaluated across different relapse rates and major relapse criteria based on the Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS). The XGBoost model achieved the highest accuracy (82% for more than one relapse rate; 92% for more than twice). SHAP analysis identified key predictive features, supporting earlier, more informed clinical decision-making.","Journal of Biostatistics and Epidemiology  \nJ BiostatEpidemiol. 2023;9(2):189-200  \nOriginal Article  \nA Wegner's Granulomatosis Risk Prediction Model Based on Machine Learning Algorithms  \nJaleh Shoshtarian Malak1, Samira Alsaeidi2*, Fatemeh Haji Ali Asgari1, Fahimeh Khedmatkon1  \n1Department of Electronic Health, Virtual School, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.  \n2Rheumatology Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.  \n\n| ARTICLE INFO | ABSTRACT |\n| --- | --- |\n\nReceived 27.12.2022 Revised 28.01.2023 Accepted 14.02.2023 Published 15.06.2023  \nKeywords:  \nWegener's granulomatosis relapse;  \nRelapse prediction; Machine learning;  \nClinical decision-making; Xgboost algorithm; Birmingham vasculitis activity score;  \nPredictive modeling; Healthcare analytics; Autoimmune diseases; Precision medicine  \nIntroduction: Prediction of Wegener's granulomatosis diagnosis and relapse is a complex process. In this study, we applied machine learning algorithms to predict Wegener's granulomatosis relapse.  \nMethods: In this research, 189 patients admitted to Amiralam Hospital were studied and followed for approximately 2 years. Patient features included demographics, organ involvement, symptoms, and other clinical data. Different popular machine learning algorithms were applied for predicting Wegener's granulomatosis relapse, including Support Vector Machines, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and XGBoost algorithms. The prediction model performance was measured for the different candidate prediction algorithms using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-measure. The selected prediction model performance was calculated based on different relapse rates and major relapse occurrence according to Birmingham Vasculitis Activity Score (BVAS) fields.  \nResults: Applying different machine learning algorithms, the XGBoost algorithm performed the best. The results indicated that the prediction model's performance increased when calculating higher relapse rate possibilities. The XGBoost model had 82% accuracy while predicting more than one relapse rate and 92% accuracy in predicting more than twice the relapse rate. We also calculated the SHAP value for the prediction model. The results indicated that Cr, BVAS, lymphocyte percentage, vitamin D, nose involvement, alkaline phosphatase, diagnosis age, white blood cell count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and initial nose presentation are the 10 most important features according to SHAP value.  \nConclusion: In this study, we have developed Wegener's granulomatosis relapse prediction model using machine learning algorithms. We achieved reasonable precision and recall for early prediction and decisionmaking regarding Wegener's granulomatosis relapse  \nIntroduction  \nGranulomatosis with Polyangiitis (Wegener's) disease, also known as GPA, is an autoimmune  \ndisease of unknown etiology.
