The study collected data at Beijing Children’s Hospital from April 2018 to October 2019 from 2464 suspected children aged 3–18, using an 8:2 training/testing split and elastic net feature selection. External testing showed strong discrimination with linear discriminant analysis, offering a feasible screening alternative for stratifying disease severity.","TYPE Original Research PUBLISHED 14 February 2024 DOI 10.3389/fped.2024.1328209  \nEDITED BY  \nGonzalo C.

Patients and methods: This study was conducted at Beijing Children’s Hospital from April 2018 to October 2019 . The participants in this study were 2464 children aged 3–18 suspected of having OSA who underwent clinical data collection and polysomnography(PSG) . Participants’ data were randomly divided into a training set and a testing set at a ratio of 8:2 . The elastic net algorithm was used for feature selection to simplify the model. Stratiﬁed 10-fold cross-validation was repeated ﬁve times to ensure the robustness of the results.  \nResults: Feature selection using Elastic Net resulted in 47 features for AHI ≥5 and 31 features for AHI ≥10 being retained. The machine learning model using these selected features achieved an average AUC of 0 .73 for AHI ≥5 and 0 .78 for AHI ≥10 when tested externally, outperforming models based on PSG questionnaire features. Linear Discriminant Analysis using the selected features identiﬁed OSA with a sensitivity of 44% and speciﬁcity of 90%, providing a feasible clinical alternativ","cbCaisSVL7bwJuk0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisSVL7bwJuk0","pdf",2893156,1,9,"English","en",105,"# 1 Introduction\n# 2 Patients and Methods\n## 2.1 Study design and participants\n## 2.2 Feature selection and model training\n# 3 Results\n## 3.1 Selected features and classification performance\n## 3.2 External validation and comparison\n# 4 Discussion\n## 4.1 Clinical implications and limitations","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of this study?\",\"answer\":\"To evaluate how effectively a machine learning algorithm can diagnose pediatric OSA using clinical features that can be obtained outside nocturnal, medical environments.\"},{\"question\":\"How were the participants selected and split for model development?\",\"answer\":\"The study enrolled 2464 children aged 3–18 suspected of having OSA, and randomly divided their data into a training set and a testing set in an 8:2 ratio.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the model’s performance compare with polysomnography-based questionnaire features?\",\"answer\":\"Using features selected by elastic net, the machine learning model achieved external AUC values around 0.73 for AHI ≥5 and 0.78 for AHI ≥10, outperforming models based on PSG questionnaire features.\"}]","Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea diagnosis -
