[0002] Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a common surgical method for treating patients with complex coronary heart disease.

[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present invention. Apparently, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present invention without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0051] The influencing factors of early graft failure are complex and diverse, including traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, etc., and also involve intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, complications and other factors. In the related art, a nomogram prediction model constructed with traditional cardiovascular risk factors such as smoking and hypertension has a certain ability to predict the risk of graft stenosis. However, with the in-depth study of hemodynamic and wall compliance evaluation tools such as quantitative flow ratio (QFR) and pulsatility index (PI), more and more evidence shows that blood flow parameters play an important role in evaluating the long-term prognosis of CABG patients. However, in the related art, there is no research on the association between these influencing factors and early graft failure.

[0052] Based on this, the present invention uses the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (Lasso) regression model and the multi-factor Logistic regression model to explore the potential risk factors of early graft failure after CABG, construct and evaluate the early graft failure risk prediction model, providing a new basis for the risk assessment and individualized treatment of postoperative patients.

[0053] The present invention provides a postoperative risk assessment system, specifically an early graft failure assessment system for coronary artery bypass grafting.

[0054] The following will describe the postoperative risk assessment system, device, storage medium and program product of the present invention in conjunction with Figures 1 - 12 Describe the postoperative risk assessment system, device, storage medium and program product of the present invention.

[0055] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the modules of the postoperative risk assessment system provided by the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, the system may include the following modules:

[0056] An extraction module for extracting independent risk factors for early graft failure from the postoperative data of a patient;

[0057] A score determination module for determining the scores of each factor in the independent risk factors based on the scoring scale in the nomogram model; the nomogram model is constructed based on the independent risk factors;

[0058] A prediction module for predicting the risk information of early graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting based on the risk coefficient corresponding to the total score of each factor in the independent risk factors;

[0059] Among them, the independent risk factors are determined by performing least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Lasso regression analysis and multi-factor logistic Logistic regression analysis on the dataset of potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases respectively, and combining the results of Lasso regression analysis and Logistic regression analysis.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present invention, the graft may be an internal mammary artery graft; early graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting refers to the degree of graft stenosis ≥ 50% (including complete occlusion) evaluated by CCTA (Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography).

[0061] The independent risk factors include non-left main stenosis, complications (also known as in-hospital complications), quantitative flow ratio and pulsatility index; the weight ranking of each factor in the independent risk factors is in turn quantitative flow ratio, complications, pulsatility index and non-left main stenosis. Among them, the quantitative flow ratio is greater than 0.8 (i.e., QFR > 0.80), and the pulsatility index is greater than 3.0 (i.e., PI > 3.0).

[0062] A dataset of potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases is pre-constructed. For example, it can be achieved through the following methods:

[0063] Collect the baseline clinical data of all patients, including demographic characteristics, intraoperative data of CABG, and imaging data (including coronary angiography and postoperative follow-up CCTA images), etc. Among them, coronary angiography was performed using the standard percutaneous femoral or radial artery approach with a 6F or 7F guiding catheter.

[0064] All patients underwent CCTA follow-up at 1 year (12 ± 3 months) after surgery to evaluate the patency of the grafts, and the patients were divided into a non-failing group and a failing group accordingly. Among them, the clinical baseline data of the patients in the non-failing group and the failing group showed that the patients in the early graft failure group had a preoperative QFR > 0.80, a higher proportion of non-left main lesions or in-hospital complications (P < 0.01), refer to Tables 1 to 2.

[0065] Table 1 Comparison of clinical baseline characteristics between the non-failing group and the failing group

[0066]

[0067] Table 2 Comparison of clinical baseline characteristics between the non-failing group and the failing group

[0068]

[0069] In Tables 1 and 2, the failing group was defined as graft vessel stenosis ≥ 50% in diameter (including complete occlusion) at 1 year after surgery; BMI: body mass index; PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; non-left main lesion was defined as a left main stenosis degree < 50%; other concomitant surgeries: including left atrial appendectomy, ventricular aneurysm resection, carotid endarterectomy, and arteriovenous fistula surgery, etc.; the number of anastomotic sites using arterial grafts: including the number of anastomotic sites of the left internal mammary artery, right internal mammary artery, or radial artery graft with the diseased coronary artery; in-hospital complications included infectious symptoms such as postoperative respiratory tract, surgical site, catheter-related bloodstream infection, or infective endocarditis; postoperative bleeding (continuous chest tube drainage ≥ 7 mL / Kg / h for 2 consecutive hours within the first 12 hours after surgery or a total of ≥ 84 mL / kg within the first 24 hours); newly diagnosed heart failure by echocardiogram and laboratory tests after surgery; reoperation after surgery; : t-test; #: chi-square test; : Mann-Whitney U test; ▲: Fisher's exact probability method.

[0070] Tables 1 and 2 include potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, such as traditional cardiovascular risk factors, including age, gender, BMI, ejection fraction, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, peripheral vascular disease, smoking, history of previous myocardial infarction and PCI, and the time from preoperative angiography to surgery; potential intraoperative risk factors, including non-left main stenosis, QFR>0.80, graft material, and PI; postoperative risk factors, including postoperative complications (such as infection, bleeding, heart failure, and reoperation) and length of hospital stay, etc.

[0071] In one embodiment, the independent risk factors are determined in the following manner: performing Lasso regression analysis on the data set to obtain the first type of risk factors for early graft failure; performing Logistic regression analysis on the data set to obtain the second type of risk factors for early graft failure; ranking the importance of the first type of risk factors and the second type of risk factors; and selecting the common risk factors in the ranking results of the first type of risk factors and the ranking results of the second type of risk factors as the independent risk factors.

[0072] In order to screen out the factors that have the most significant impact on early graft failure and improve the prediction ability of the model, the embodiment of the present invention uses Lasso regression to introduce a regularization parameter ( λ ) to reduce overfitting, as Figures 2 to 3 shown. The included factors include all potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in Tables 1 and 2. The model adopts a binomial distribution, and the optimal parameters are determined through cross-validation (such as ten-fold cross-validation, k-fold cross-validation, stratified k-fold cross-validation) (for example, when λ = 0.018, the prediction error of the model is the lowest). At this time, the variables included in the model are: non-left main stenosis, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, complications (i.e., in-hospital complications), QFR>0.80, and PI>3.0. An importance ranking analysis is carried out on the relevant factors, and the results show that QFR>0.80 (weighting coefficient 0.152) and in-hospital complications (weighting coefficient 0.114) are the two most important risk factors, followed by PI>3.0 (weighting coefficient 0.063) and non-left main stenosis (weighting coefficient 0.038), indicating that these factors may have an important impact on the prediction of early graft failure, as Figure 4 shown.

[0073] In one embodiment, the first type of risk factors is determined in the following manner: constructing the objective function of the Lasso regression model; determining the optimal regularization parameter of the objective function based on the cross-validation method; training the objective function after determining the optimal regularization parameter using the data set to determine the regression coefficient of each variable; the variable is the risk factor in the data set; and determining the first type of risk factors based on the regression coefficient of each variable.

[0074] For example, the objective function of the Lasso regression model is set, and its general form is:

[0075] ;

[0076] where, y i is the early decline situation (target variable) of the blood vessel bypass graft of the i th sample, x ij is the i th potential risk factor of the j th sample, β j is the corresponding regression coefficient, n is the number of samples, p is the number of potential risk factors, λ is the regularization parameter.

[0077] Since the model adopts the binomial distribution, the output of the model is a probability value, representing the probability of early decline of the blood vessel bypass graft, which matches the binary classification nature of the target variable.

[0078] Furthermore, through cross-validation, the optimal regularization parameter of the objective function is determined. For example, taking the ten-fold cross-validation as an example for analysis and explanation, the data set is divided into ten parts. For each λ value: Nine of them are used as the training set. Based on the principle of minimizing the objective function on the training set, an optimization algorithm (such as the coordinate descent method) is used to update the regression coefficients, so that the model can fit the training data and be constrained by regularization. The remaining one is used as the test set, and the prediction performance indicators of the model on the test set are calculated, such as accuracy, recall rate, F1-score or log-loss, etc. Different λ values are traversed, and the above process is repeated. The one that makes the average prediction performance of the model on the test set of the ten-fold cross-validation the best

[0079] is selected as the optimal parameter, that is, the optimal regularization parameter. λ After determining the optimal

[0080] Optionally, the variables can be sorted according to the absolute value of the regression coefficients of the variables finally retained in the Lasso regression model. The larger the absolute value of the regression coefficient, the more important the role of the variable in the model.

[0081] To further control confounding factors, a Logistic regression model was constructed to control for: 1) traditional cardiovascular risk factors, including age, sex, BMI, ejection fraction, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, peripheral vascular disease, smoking, history of previous myocardial infarction and PCI, and the time from preoperative angiography to surgery; 2) potential intraoperative risk factors, including non-left main stenosis, QFR>0.80, graft material, and PI; 3) postoperative risk factors, including postoperative complications (such as infection, bleeding, heart failure, and reoperation) and length of hospital stay, as shown in Table 3 and Figure 5 as follows.

[0082] Table 3 Logistic regression analysis of influencing factors for vascular graft failure 1 year after CABG

[0083]

[0084] In Table 3, PI: pulsatility index; QFR: quantitative flow ratio; PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention; P values of potential cardiovascular risk factors and intraoperative related factors not listed were all >0.05, and those with P<0.2 in univariate Logistic regression analysis were included in the multivariate analysis.

[0085] Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed on the dataset to obtain the second type of risk factors for early graft failure. Among them, the second type of risk factors can include non-left main stenosis, complications, QFR>0.80, and PI>3.0. Optionally, the second type of risk factors can also include risk factors such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

[0086] In one embodiment, the second type of risk factors is determined by the following method: constructing a Logistic regression model; based on the Logistic regression model, performing univariate analysis on the dataset to screen out candidate risk factors; performing multivariate analysis on the candidate risk factors to obtain the second type of risk factors.

[0087] For example, the Logistic regression model is used for binary classification problems. In the context of studying early graft failure, it is assumed that the dependent variable Y (whether the graft fails) follows a Bernoulli distribution, and its probability function is:

[0088] ;

[0089] where X =( x1 , x 2 , ..., x p ) is a vector containing all the predictive variables that may affect the early decline of the vascular graft (such as the patient's age, gender, disease indicators, etc.). β = ( β 0 , β 1 , ..., β p ) is the vector of regression coefficients.

[0090] During the univariate analysis process, each risk factor was separately subjected to a simple Logistic regression analysis with the early decline of the vascular graft, and the odds ratio (OddsRatio, OR) of each factor, its confidence interval, p - value ( P value), β value, S.E, and Z value and other statistics were calculated. Among them, the odds ratio represents the relative probability change of the occurrence of the event (early decline of the vascular graft) when this factor increases by one unit (for continuous variables) or changes from one category to another (for categorical variables) while other factors remain unchanged. Then, based on the univariate analysis results, candidate risk factors were screened out. For example, in Table 3, factors with P value < 0.2 (i.e., candidate risk factors) were selected for subsequent multivariate analysis.

[0091] During the multivariate analysis process, the candidate risk factors screened out in the univariate analysis were simultaneously incorporated into the multivariate Logistic regression model. In the multivariate model, the model takes into account the interactions and combined effects among these factors, thereby more accurately evaluating the independent contribution of each factor to the early decline of the vascular graft. For example, the Wald statistic or likelihood ratio statistic of each factor was calculated, and by comparing with the corresponding distribution (such as the chi-square distribution), p - value ( P value) was obtained. p - value ( P value) is used to test the significance of this factor in the model. If p - value ( P value) < 0.05, then this factor is considered to significantly affect the early decline of the vascular graft statistically. For example, in Table 3, p - value ( PValue) < 0.05 included non-left main stem stenosis, complications, QFR > 0.80, and PI > 3.0. The results of the multivariate analysis in Table 3 showed that QFR > 0.80 (OR = 5.57, 95% CI: 2.98 - 10.41) and in-hospital complications (OR = 4.02, 95% CI: 1.59 - 10.19) were strong predictors of the risk of decline. The results of the Logistic regression analysis were consistent with those of the Lasso regression analysis, indicating the importance of hemodynamics and complication management in reducing the risk of graft decline. In addition, the significance of non-left main stem stenosis in both models suggested that the risk of graft stenosis in such patients might increase, which needed to attract clinical attention.

[0092] Based on the results of the Logistic regression analysis, the importance ranking of the first type of risk factors was QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, non-left main stem stenosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia in turn. Based on the results of the Lasso regression analysis, the importance ranking of the second type of risk factors was QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, and non-left main stem stenosis in turn. Then, multiple risk factors with higher rankings were selected, such as selecting the top 4 risk factors; further, the common risk factors were extracted from the selected first type of risk factors and the second type of risk factors as independent risk factors, that is, QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, and non-left main stem stenosis were used as independent risk factors.

[0093] It can be understood that the purpose of selecting the common risk factors of the two regression analyses is to find the factors that are considered to have a significant impact on the early decline of the graft under different analysis models. These factors have higher reliability and importance because they have been screened by two different analysis ideas and model mechanisms, and can provide more powerful evidence support for clinical decision-making, risk prediction, etc. At the same time, these common risk factors have shown a significant impact on the early decline of the graft in both different statistical analysis models, indicating that they may play a core role in the occurrence process of the early decline of the graft. Compared with the factors screened only in one model, the common risk factors are more likely to be the real and stable risk factors, and their relationship with the early decline of the graft is closer and more reliable. In subsequent research and practice, in-depth research, monitoring, or intervention on these common risk factors can more effectively reduce the risk of early decline of the graft or more accurately predict the occurrence of early decline of the graft.

[0094] Furthermore, based on the independent risk factors, a nomogram model was constructed, as Figure 6 shown. Among them, the nomogram model was used to predict the risk information of early decline of the graft after coronary artery bypass grafting.

[0095] After determining the independent risk factors and the nomogram model, the independent risk factors for early saphenous vein graft failure are extracted from the postoperative data of the patients. Based on the scoring scale in the nomogram model, the scores of each factor in the independent risk factors are determined. Finally, based on the risk coefficient corresponding to the total score of each factor in the independent risk factors, the risk information of early saphenous vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting is predicted.

[0096] For example, in Figure 6 , based on the scoring scale, the scores of each factor in the independent risk factors can be determined. For example, the score for PI > 3.0 is 55, the score for QFR > 0.80 is 98, the score for complications is 85, and the score for non-left main stenosis is 69. Assuming that PI > 3.0 does not meet the condition, the score is 0, and the total score of all risk factors is 0 + 98 + 85 + 69 = 252. The risk coefficient corresponding to this total score is 252 / 350 = 0.72. At this time, it can be predicted that the risk of early saphenous vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting is relatively high.

[0097] Compared with the old model that included factors such as smoking, hypertension, LAD stenosis < 75%, and coronary flow, the nomogram model provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes four new key variables: non-left main stenosis, QFR > 0.80, PI > 3.0, and complications. The AUC of the new model is 0.758 (95% CI: 0.694~0.820), which is significantly higher than that of the old model (AUC = 0.632, 95% CI: 0.561~0.694) and the new-old hybrid model (AUC = 0.672, 95% CI: 0.577~0.758). The results show that the new model shows higher predictive ability for early saphenous vein graft failure, especially in the identification and early intervention of high-risk patients, and has important application value, such as Figure 7 shown.

[0098] Optionally, a binary Logistic regression is used to evaluate the model performance. The data is randomly split into a training set and a test set, and the test ratio is 0.70. The ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve) curves and calibration curves of the training set and the test set both show that the actual performance of the prediction model is highly consistent with the ideal performance, indicating that the model has high clinical application value and can provide effective support for clinical decision-making, such as Figures 8 to 10As shown below. Further calculation of the net reclassification index (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) results showed that the classification accuracy of the new model increased by 27.2% (NRI = 0.272, 95% CI: 0.18 - 0.37; IDI = 0.109, 95% CI: 0.059 - 0.158, P < 0.05).

[0099] The postoperative risk assessment system provided by the embodiments of the present invention includes an extraction module for extracting independent risk factors for early saphenous vein graft failure from the postoperative data of patients; the independent risk factors include non-left main stem stenosis, complications, fractional flow reserve, and pulsatility index; a score determination module for determining the scores of the factors in the independent risk factors based on the scoring scale in the nomogram model; the nomogram model is constructed based on the independent risk factors; a prediction module for predicting the risk information of early saphenous vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting based on the risk coefficients corresponding to the total scores of the factors in the independent risk factors; wherein the independent risk factors are determined by performing least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (Lasso) regression analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis on the dataset of potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases respectively, and combining the results of the Lasso regression analysis and the logistic regression analysis. The present invention constructs a prediction model for early saphenous vein graft failure with risk factors such as QFR > 0.80, PI > 3.0, complications, and non-left main stem stenosis as the main body based on the results of the Lasso regression analysis and the multivariate logistic regression analysis, thereby improving the accuracy of the risk assessment of early saphenous vein graft failure in postoperative patients.

[0100] Based on the above embodiments, the prediction module is further configured to: select target risk factors based on the ranking results of the weight coefficients of the first type of risk factors and the second type of risk factors; wherein the target risk factors include independent risk factors; determine the scores of the factors in the target risk factors based on the scoring scale in the nomogram model constructed based on the target risk factors; and predict the risk information of early saphenous vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting based on the risk coefficients corresponding to the total scores of the factors in the target risk factors.

[0101] For example, based on the results of Logistic regression analysis, the weight coefficient ranking of the first type of risk factors is QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, non-left main stem stenosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia in sequence. Based on the results of Lasso regression analysis, the weight coefficient ranking of the second type of risk factors is QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, and non-left main stem stenosis in sequence. Based on this, QFR > 0.80, complications, PI > 3.0, non-left main stem stenosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia can be selected as target risk factors. Then, based on the scoring scale in the nomogram model constructed based on the target risk factors, the scores of each factor in the target risk factors are determined. Finally, based on the risk coefficients corresponding to the total scores of each factor in the target risk factors, the risk information of early graft failure after coronary artery bypass grafting is predicted.

[0102] Based on the results of Lasso regression analysis and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis in the embodiments of the present invention, a prediction model for early graft failure with risk factors such as QFR > 0.80, PI > 3.0, complications, non-left main stem stenosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia as the main body is constructed, thereby improving the accuracy of risk assessment of early graft failure in postoperative patients.

[0103] Based on the above embodiments, the prediction module is further configured to: determine the risk score of risk factors based on the independent risk factors and their weight coefficients; divide risk groups based on the risk scores of risk factors; and predict major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events based on the risk groups.

[0104] In the embodiments of the present invention, major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events refer to MACCE (major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events), where MACCE events include all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and re-revascularization due to angina or other reasons.

[0105] Based on each risk factor and its weight coefficient, the risk score of risk factors is determined. Among them, the risk score of risk factors is to comprehensively evaluate the risk degree of an individual patient having early graft failure. By combining multiple risk factors and their weight coefficients, a quantitative risk score can be obtained. For example, the weight coefficient of QFR > 0.80 is 0.152, the weight coefficient of in-hospital complications is 0.114, the weight coefficient of PI > 3.0 is 0.063, and the weight coefficient of non-left main stem stenosis is 0.038. Then, the risk score of risk factors is:

[0106] Risk score of risk factors = (QFR > 0.80 × 0.152) + (in-hospital complications × 0.114) + (PI > 3.0 × 0.063) + (non-left main stem stenosis × 0.038).

[0107] Optionally, the risk scores of risk factors can also be calculated based on the binary classification results (0 or 1) of each risk factor and their weight coefficients. For example, assume that the binary classification result of QFR>0.80 is 1, the weight coefficient is 0.152, the binary classification result of in-hospital complications is 1, the weight coefficient is 0.114, the binary classification result of PI>3.0 is 0, the weight coefficient is 0.063, and the binary classification result of non-left main stem stenosis is 1, the weight coefficient is 0.038. Then the risk score of risk factors is:

[0108] Risk score of risk factors = 1×0.152 + 1×0.114 + 0×0.063 + 1×0.038.

[0109] Furthermore, based on the risk scores of risk factors, risk groups are divided, such as high-risk group, medium-risk group, and low-risk group; finally, based on the risk groups, major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events are predicted.

[0110] Specifically, the coronary artery risk score of the follow-up patients is calculated according to the importance weighting coefficient of risk factors. Through the enumeration method, a grouped statistical test is performed on the total risk scores of four risk factors, such as QFR, PI, non-left main stem lesion, and in-hospital complications. For example, the grouped statistical test can be implemented using X-tile software; based on the results of the grouped statistical test, the optimal cut-off value related to MACCE is obtained, so as to maximize the difference in survival patterns. According to the risk scores of risk factors, patients are divided into a low-risk group (score < 0.16), a medium-risk group (score ≥ 0.16 and < 0.25), and a high-risk group (score ≥ 0.25). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve shows that there are significant differences in the cumulative MACCE-free survival rates among different risk groups (Log rank P = 0.001), as Figure 11 shown. In the low-risk group, the incidence of MACCE events is 5.85% (10 / 171), in the medium-risk group is 13.30% (31 / 233), while the incidence in the high-risk group is significantly increased to 17.06% (43 / 209), and the difference between groups is statistically significant (P = 0.003), which further verifies the risk stratification ability of the risk factor scores such as QFR, PI, non-left main stem lesion, and in-hospital complications in clinical practice, and helps to strengthen the follow-up and management of high-risk patients after surgery.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present invention, risk groups are divided through the risk scores of risk factors, and then MACCE events are predicted through the risk groups, which helps to strengthen the follow-up and management of high-risk patients after surgery.
