Résumé

Arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) is a chronic arterial disease that can lead to critical limb ischemia. Endovascular therapy is increasingly used for limb salvage in ASO patients, but the outcomes vary. The development of prediction models using unsupervised machine learning may lead to the identification of novel subtypes to guide patient prognosis and treatment. This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 448 patients with ASOs who underwent endovascular therapy. Unsupervised machine learning algorithms were employed to identify subgroups. To validate the precision of the clustering outcomes, an analysis of the postoperative results of the clusters was conducted. A prediction model was constructed using binary logistic regression. Two distinct subgroups were identified by unsupervised machine learning and characterized by differing patterns of clinical features. Patients in Cluster 2 had significantly worse conditions and prognoses than those in Cluster 1. For the novel ASO subtypes, a nomogram was developed using six predictive factors, namely, platelet count, ankle brachial index, Rutherford category, operation method, hypertension, and diabetes status. The nomogram achieved excellent discrimination for predicting membership in the two identified clusters, with an area under the curve of 0.96 and 0.95 in training cohort and internal test cohort. This study demonstrated that unsupervised machine learning can reveal novel phenotypic subgroups of patients with varying prognostic risk who underwent endovascular therapy. The prediction model developed could support clinical decision-making and risk counseling for this complex patient population. Further external validation is warranted to assess the generalizability of the findings.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) is a chronic arterial disease that can lead to critical limb ischemia. Endovascular therapy is increasingly used for limb salvage in ASO patients, but the outcomes vary. The development of prediction models using unsupervised machine learning may lead to the identification of novel subtypes to guide patient prognosis and treatment.
METHODS METHODS
This retrospective study analyzed clinical data from 448 patients with ASOs who underwent endovascular therapy. Unsupervised machine learning algorithms were employed to identify subgroups. To validate the precision of the clustering outcomes, an analysis of the postoperative results of the clusters was conducted. A prediction model was constructed using binary logistic regression.
RESULTS RESULTS
Two distinct subgroups were identified by unsupervised machine learning and characterized by differing patterns of clinical features. Patients in Cluster 2 had significantly worse conditions and prognoses than those in Cluster 1. For the novel ASO subtypes, a nomogram was developed using six predictive factors, namely, platelet count, ankle brachial index, Rutherford category, operation method, hypertension, and diabetes status. The nomogram achieved excellent discrimination for predicting membership in the two identified clusters, with an area under the curve of 0.96 and 0.95 in training cohort and internal test cohort.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
This study demonstrated that unsupervised machine learning can reveal novel phenotypic subgroups of patients with varying prognostic risk who underwent endovascular therapy. The prediction model developed could support clinical decision-making and risk counseling for this complex patient population. Further external validation is warranted to assess the generalizability of the findings.
