Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of ulcerative colitis, and in particular to a multi-parameter monitoring system for evaluating the intestinal barrier function of ulcerative colitis. Background Art

[0002] Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by persistent inflammation in the intestinal mucosa and submucosa, leading to impaired intestinal barrier function. The intestinal barrier is a crucial line of defense for maintaining a stable internal environment. Its dysfunction can lead to bacterial translocation, immune dysregulation, and systemic inflammation, severely impacting patients' quality of life. Therefore, accurate assessment of intestinal barrier function is crucial for the early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and treatment efficacy evaluation of UC.

[0003] Traditional methods for assessing intestinal barrier function rely primarily on clinical symptoms, endoscopic examinations, and histological biopsies, but these methods have numerous limitations. Clinical symptoms often lag behind pathological changes, endoscopic examinations are limited by patient acceptance and operational difficulty, and histological biopsies are invasive and difficult to monitor dynamically. With the rapid advancement of biomedical technology, multi-parameter, non-invasive monitoring methods have become a research hotspot.

[0004] Deficiencies in the existing technology:

[0005] Limitations of single-modality monitoring: Traditional methods often only provide single physiological or pathological information. For example, endoscopy primarily observes intestinal mucosal morphology but cannot directly reflect molecular changes in the intestinal barrier. Single biochemical indicators (such as inflammatory factors in blood or feces) are unlikely to fully reflect the complex state of the intestinal barrier.

[0006] Lack of real-time dynamic monitoring: Most existing methods can only provide static, intermittent monitoring results and cannot track the dynamic changes in intestinal barrier function in real time. For chronic, recurrent diseases such as UC, real-time dynamic monitoring is crucial for timely adjustment of treatment plans.

[0007] Insufficient individualized assessment: The degree of intestinal barrier damage and the rate of disease progression vary significantly among UC patients, making it difficult to accurately assess individual patients using existing methods. There is a lack of personalized monitoring models that integrate patient-specific microbiome, metabolic, and physiological parameters.

[0008] The present invention proposes a multi-parameter monitoring system for evaluating the intestinal barrier function of ulcerative colitis to improve the above-mentioned deficiencies. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Embodiments of the present invention provide a multi-parameter monitoring system for evaluating intestinal barrier function in ulcerative colitis, which automatically adjusts treatment plans based on monitoring results by establishing a closed-loop feedback treatment system. In the specification and claims of the present invention, and in the accompanying drawings, the terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and so on (if any) are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence.

[0042] For ease of understanding, the specific process of the embodiment of the present invention is described below. Figure 1 An embodiment of the multi-parameter monitoring method for evaluating the intestinal barrier function of ulcerative colitis in the present invention includes:

[0043] 101. Design a nanoprobe with a surface-modified specific binding element that targets tight junction proteins occludin and / or ZO-1 and simultaneously loads catalytically active nanozymes. Use the nanoprobe to simultaneously collect multimodal signals, including fluorescence signals, electrochemical signals, and oxidative stress catalytic reaction signals. Combined with a swallowable capsule endoscopy, real-time imaging and molecular-level dynamic tracking of the intestinal barrier are achieved, resulting in a probe-based multimodal dataset.

[0044] It is understood that the execution subject of the present invention can be a multi-parameter monitoring system for evaluating the intestinal barrier function of ulcerative colitis, or a terminal or a server, which is not limited here. The embodiment of the present invention is described by taking the server as the execution subject as an example.

[0045] It should be noted that during the design and preparation of the nanoprobe, the core structure used gold nanoparticles (AuNPs, 50 nm in diameter) as a carrier, which exhibits high biocompatibility and surface plasmon resonance, facilitating fluorescence signal enhancement. Surface modification involved the specific binding element, which was conjugated via a thiol bond to an anti-occludin monoclonal antibody (10 μg / mL) and an anti-ZO-1 aptamer (sequence: 5'-ATC CTA TCA CTA ATT AGG GTA GGG CGG GTT GGG-3'). The binding efficiency was verified to be 97% (ELISA assay).

[0046] Nanozyme loading: Platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs, 5 nm in diameter) were covalently modified on the surface of AuNPs to mimic peroxidase activity, catalyzing the conversion of H2O2 to hydroxyl radicals (·OH) with a catalytic efficiency three times that of natural horseradish peroxidase (kinetic parameters: Km = 0.2 mM, Vmax = 2.5 μM / min). Fluorescent labeling: The near-infrared fluorescent dye Cy5.5 (emission wavelength 710 nm) was attached to the surface of AuNPs to avoid intestinal background interference.

[0047] In vitro validation experiment, targeted binding experiment: The nanoprobe was co-incubated with human colon epithelial cells (Caco-2). Immunofluorescence showed that the occludin / ZO-1 binding signal in the inflammation model group (TNF-α induced) was 5 times stronger than that in the normal group (fluorescence intensity: 200AU in the normal group vs. 1000AU in the inflammation group).

[0048] Catalytic activity testing: In a simulated intestinal environment (pH 6.8), the nanoprobe catalyzed the production of ·OH from 1 mM H₂O₂. The absorbance (650 nm) increased by 0.8 over 5 minutes as measured by the TMB colorimetric assay, corresponding to a H₂O₂ decomposition rate of 0.16 mM / min. Animal model validation: DSS-induced ulcerative colitis mouse model (n=10) and healthy mice (n=5) were used as controls. Probe administration: The nanoprobe (dose: 1 mg / kg) was administered via gavage and assayed 2 hours later.

[0049] The swallowable capsule endoscopy system integrates hardware design: a miniature fluorescence imaging module equipped with a 710nm excitation light source and a CMOS sensor (resolution 1280×720). The electrochemical sensor uses a three-electrode system (working electrode modified with carbon nanotubes, detection range 1-100μM H₂O₂). Data transmission uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to transmit data to an external receiver in real time. The capsule endoscope collects fluorescence images, electrochemical signals (current values), and catalytic reaction products (H₂O₂ concentration) every 10 seconds for continuous monitoring for 6 hours.

[0050] Multimodal signal acquisition and results, fluorescence imaging: Inflammation areas showed high-intensity Cy5.5 signals (average grayscale value 950AU vs. 200AU in normal areas), which were negatively correlated with pathological sections (occludin expression decreased by 60%) (r = -0.89). Electrochemical signals: The H2O2 concentration in the inflamed intestine increased to 25μM (8μM in the normal group), and the current response value increased from 50nA to 180nA. Catalytic reaction kinetics: The catalytic efficiency of the nanozyme increased by 2 times in the inflamed area (catalytic rate 0.32mM / min vs. 0.16mM / min in the normal group), reflecting the level of local oxidative stress.

[0051] Multimodal dataset integration: A signal-Disease Activity Index (DAI) model was established using machine learning (random forest algorithm), with a prediction accuracy of 92% (AUC = 0.94). Histological verification: Immunohistochemistry showed a significant correlation between ZO-1 expression and the decrease in electrochemical signal (r = 0.85, p < 0.01). Biocompatibility: The probe was metabolized and excreted by the intestine within 72 hours, and there was no significant increase in serum inflammatory factors (IL-6, TNF-α) (p > 0.05). Capsule excretion rate: All animals naturally excreted the capsule within 24 hours, with no retention.

[0052] 102. Construct genetically engineered bacteria that carry a biosensor module that responds to the intestinal permeability marker lactulose / mannitol ratio and a sensing module for the inflammatory factors TNF-α or IL-6. Fluorescent reporter signals or electrical signal outputs from the genetically engineered bacteria are detected in fecal samples to obtain engineered bacteria detection data, quantify intestinal permeability abnormalities and local inflammation levels, and obtain quantitative intestinal permeability and inflammation data.

[0053] It should be noted that the chassis strain for the design and construction of genetically engineered bacteria is: non-pathogenic Escherichia coli Nissle1917 (EcN) is selected as the host, which has the ability to colonize the intestine and is safe.

[0054] Dual-function biosensor module: Intestinal permeability sensing module: Lactulose response: A lactulose-specific promoter (PlacF, derived from a lactose operon mutant with a lactulose response threshold of 0.1 mM) was designed to drive the expression of red fluorescent protein (RFP, emission wavelength 610 nm). Mannitol response: A mannitol-inducible promoter (PmtlA, response threshold 0.05 mM) was used to drive the expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP, emission wavelength 510 nm). Signal ratio calculation: The lactulose / mannitol ratio (L / M) was calculated by the RFP / GFP fluorescence intensity ratio.

[0055] Inflammatory factor sensing module: TNF-α sensing: A chimeric receptor was constructed by fusing a TNF-α single-chain antibody (scFv) to a transmembrane histidine kinase (EnvZ). TNF-α binding activates the downstream OmpC promoter (PompC), driving the expression of blue fluorescent protein (BFP, emission wavelength 450 nm) (detection limit: 1 ng / mL). IL-6 sensing: An IL-6 aptamer (sequence: 5'-GGC AGC TCGTGC CGA TTC GAA TTC GTC GAC-3') was designed and combined with a riboswitch to regulate the expression of violet fluorescent protein (VFP, emission wavelength 430 nm) (detection limit: 0.5 ng / mL).

[0056] In vitro validation experiment, permeability module test: The engineered bacteria were cultured in simulated intestinal culture medium (containing different concentrations of lactulose / mannitol): at 0.5mM lactulose, the RFP intensity reached 5000AU; at 0.3mM mannitol, the GFP intensity reached 4800AU. When the L / M ratio was 2 (simulating increased permeability), the RFP / GFP fluorescence ratio was 3.2 (linear range 0.5-5, R 2 =0.98).

[0057] Inflammation module testing: When TNF-α (10 ng / mL) is added, the BFP intensity rises to 8000 AU within 4 hours (background <500 AU); when IL-6 (5 ng / mL) is added, the VFP intensity reaches 6500 AU (background <300 AU). Cross-reactivity testing: The TNF-α module is unresponsive to IL-6 (signal change <5%), and vice versa. Animal model validation: Experimental animals: DSS-induced ulcerative colitis mice (n=12) and healthy controls (n=6).

[0058] Engineering bacteria administration: Oral administration of an engineered bacterial suspension (1×10^9 CFU / mouse) once daily for 3 days. Fecal sample collection and analysis: Feces were collected on day 3, lysed, and analyzed for fluorescence signals by flow cytometry. Results: The L / M fluorescence ratio in the inflammation group was 4.8±0.5 (1.2±0.3 in the control group), highly correlated with the conventional urine L / M ratio (4.5±0.6) (r=0.92, p<0.001). TNF-α module signal: BFP intensity was 7200±800 AU (800±200 AU in the control group), which correlated with the serum ELISA result (TNF-α=9.2±1.1 ng / mL) (r=0.88). IL-6 module signal: VFP intensity was 5800±600 AU (400±150 AU in the control group), which correlated with tissue IL-6 levels (6.8±0.9 ng / g) (r=0.85).

[0059] Detection equipment and signal reading, portable stool detector: integrated multi-channel fluorescence detection module (excitation / emission wavelength covers 450-610nm), detection limit: 10^3 CFU / g feces. Electrochemical backup module: for non-fluorescent scenarios, engineered bacteria express horseradish peroxidase (HRP), catalyze TMB color development, and quantify inflammatory factors through current signals (0-100nA) (sensitivity: 0.1ng / mL). Data analysis and verification, signal-pathology association model: through multivariate regression analysis, the L / M fluorescence ratio combined with TNF-α / BFP signal predicts the disease activity index (DAI) with an accuracy of 89% (AUC = 0.91).

[0060] Histological verification: Decreased occludin expression in colonic tissue was negatively correlated with increased L / M fluorescence ratio (r=-0.84, p<0.01). TNF-α / BFP signal was positively correlated with intestinal pathological score (Histological Activity Index, HAI) (r=0.79, p<0.01).

[0061] Safety assessment, colonization and clearance of engineered bacteria: After three days of colonization in the intestine, the bacteria were cleared by antibiotics (ciprofloxacin) with an efficiency of >99.9%. Biosafety: The engineered bacteria did not induce a systemic inflammatory response (serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels were no different from those in the control group, p>0.05).

[0062] 103. Construct a multidimensional database based on probe-based multimodal datasets, engineered bacteria detection data, microbial composition data from metagenomic sequencing (original input source: fecal sample metagenomic sequencing), and clinical biochemical indicators (original input source: routine blood / fecal testing). Use graph neural networks or Transformer models to analyze nonlinear associations in the multidimensional database and output intestinal barrier function damage scores and disease progression prediction results. Use transfer learning to adapt pre-trained models to individual patient characteristics, enabling personalized monitoring and obtaining personalized prediction models.

[0063] It should be noted that the multi-dimensional database construction and data sources and preprocessing are: nanoprobe multimodal data (from capsule endoscopy): fluorescence signal (Cy5.5 grayscale value: 0-1000 AU), electrochemical signal (H2O2 concentration: 1-100 μM), catalytic reaction rate (0.1-0.5 mM / min). Data volume: 24 hours of monitoring per patient generates 8640 data points (10 seconds / time).

[0064] Genetically engineered bacteria detection data (from stool samples): L / M fluorescence ratio (range 1-10), TNF-α / BFP intensity (0-10,000 AU), IL-6 / VFP intensity (0-8,000 AU). Metagenomic sequencing data (from stool samples): 16S rRNA sequencing (Illumina NovaSeq) was used to analyze bacterial composition (e.g., Bacteroidetes abundance decreased to 15 ± 5% vs. 35 ± 8% in the healthy group).

[0065] Key functional genes: The expression of tight junction protein degradation gene (clbA) was upregulated 3 times.

[0066] Clinical biochemical indicators (blood / feces): serum CRP (0-50 mg / L), fecal calprotectin (50-2,000 μg / g), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR: 1-100 mm / h).

[0067] Database Architecture: A graph database (Neo4j) is used to store data. Nodes include patient ID, probe signal, microbial species, inflammatory factors, and biochemical markers; edges represent association weights (e.g., microbial-inflammation correlation coefficient). Sample dataset: 500 patients (300 with ulcerative colitis and 200 healthy controls), totaling 1.2 TB of data.

[0068] Model design and training, Graph Neural Network (GNN) architecture: Node feature encoding: Probe signal (3D), microbial abundance (50D), and biochemical markers (5D) are embedded into 128-dimensional vectors. Graph structure construction: A heterogeneous graph of patient-probe-microbial-biochemical markers is constructed, and edge weights are selected using mutual information (MI>0.3). Model parameters: 3-layer GraphSAGE, with an attention mechanism aggregating neighbor information, outputting a gut barrier damage score (0-10) and a 3-year probability of disease progression (0-1).

[0069] Transformer model architecture: Input sequence: Time series probe data (8640 points) + static data (microbial flora, biochemical indicators), concatenated into a 768-dimensional embedding. Self-attention mechanism: 12 attention heads, calculating the contribution of different signals to the score (e.g., H2O2 concentration accounts for 25%). Output layer: Jointly trained for regression (scoring) and classification (progression to severe colitis).

[0070] Training and Validation: The dataset was divided into a training set (400 cases), a validation set (50 cases), and a test set (50 cases). Performance: GNN model: Intestinal injury score prediction MAE = 0.8 (error 0.5 in the normal group, 1.1 in the inflammation group), disease progression AUC = 0.93. Transformer model: MAE = 0.7, AUC = 0.95.

[0071] Transfer learning enables personalized predictions. Pre-trained model: A basic GNN / Transformer model trained on 500 patient data. Personalized adaptation strategy: Dynamic fine-tuning layer: A new patient-specific adaptation layer (2 fully connected layers) is added, and only the adaptation layer parameters are updated (learning rate 1e-4). Data augmentation: Synthetic data (GAN-generated similar patient features) is used to expand the individual data to 100 samples. Effectiveness validation: Across 10 new patients, the transferred model's prediction score error decreased by 40% (MAE decreased from 1.2 to 0.7), and the personalized AUC increased to 0.89.

[0072] Multi-dimensional correlation analysis revealed key associations (SHAP value analysis): Microbial-probe signal interaction: For every 10% decrease in Bacteroidetes abundance, H2O2 concentration increased by 15% (SHAP value = 0.32). Inflammatory factor-L / M ratio: When TNF-α > 5 ng / mL, L / M ratios > 4 contributed 45% of the total weight. Visualization output: A heat map showed a strong positive correlation between probe signal and microbial clbA gene expression (r = 0.82, p < 0.001).

[0073] Clinical validation and results, compared to the gold standard: The intestinal barrier damage score was significantly correlated with the endoscopic UCEIS score (r = 0.86, p < 0.001). Accuracy of disease progression prediction: Among patients with a model-predicted probability of progression > 0.8 within 3 years, 85% actually developed severe colitis (compared to < 10% in the control group). Clinical decision support: Among patients recommended "anti-TNF-α therapy" by the model, treatment efficacy increased by 30% (compared to the group receiving traditional guidelines).

[0074] System security, explainability, and privacy protection: Data anonymization (differential privacy, ε = 0.1) eliminates the risk of raw data leakage during model inference. Interpretability tools provide patient-specific reports, annotating key drivers (e.g., "high H2O2 concentration + low Bacteroidetes abundance" contributes 60%).

Wearable devices are used to measure the intestinal electric field impedance spectrum to invert the changes in permeability between intestinal epithelial cells, and obtain a set of intestinal wall mechanical-electrophysiological composite parameters. These parameters are input into a personalized prediction model, combined with the real-time impedance spectrum calibration model prediction value, and the corrected disease progression risk level is output.

[0076] It should be noted that the equipment and parameters for multimodal data acquisition and parameter set construction, as well as ultrasound elastography quantification of intestinal wall stiffness, were measured using a high-frequency ultrasound elastography system (15 MHz probe frequency, 0.1 mm resolution) combined with shear wave elastography (SWE) technology to measure the elastic modulus of the colonic wall (in kPa). The healthy reference value is 5.0 ± 1.2 kPa for normal intestinal wall elasticity, while it is significantly elevated in inflamed intestinal wall (15.3 ± 4.5 kPa).

[0077] Data collection: Intestinal ultrasound examinations were performed on patients with ulcerative colitis (n=50) and healthy controls (n=30), and elastic modulus distribution maps of the diseased area (such as the sigmoid colon) were collected.

[0078] Result example: The median elastic modulus of patients in the active stage was 18.6 kPa (range 10-32 kPa), which was positively correlated with the endoscopic severity score (UCEIS) (r=0.78, p<0.001).

Inversion model: Based on the Cole-Cole equivalent circuit model, calculates the intestinal epithelial cell resistance (unit: Ω·cm 2 ) and transmembrane capacitance (μF / cm 2 ).

[0084] Clinical data: The low-frequency (100Hz) impedance of the healthy group was 120±20Ω·cm 2 , and the inflammation group decreased to 45±15Ω·cm 2 (Reflecting increased permeability.) The impedance spectrum characteristics were significantly correlated with the lactulose / mannitol (L / M) ratio (r=0.75, p<0.001).

[0091] Calibration formula:

[0092] α=0.3 (empirical coefficient), ΔZ is the deviation of the current impedance from the baseline value.

[0093] Model validation, training set: 300 patient data (200 for training and 100 for validation).

[0094] Performance indicators: short-term risk prediction AUC = 0.91 (sensitivity 85%, specificity 89%). Long-term progression prediction MAE = 0.12 (error range ± 10%).

Software platform: Real-time display of intestinal wall elastic modulus thermal maps, OCT mucosal structure 3D reconstruction, and impedance dynamic curves. Risk level warning interface (red / yellow / green color code).

[0096] Clinical trial results, cohort study (n=80): Among patients (n=25) predicted to be at high risk by the model, 92% experienced endoscopic exacerbation within 3 months (vs. 76% as assessed by clinicians). Impedance calibration reduced prediction error by 35% (MAE from 0.18 to 0.12).

[0097] Typical case analysis, case UC-09: Initial parameters: elastic modulus 16.8 kPa, crypt density 42 / mm 2 , impedance 52Ω·cm 2 → Predicted risk level: "Medium". Real-time impedance monitoring shows a sudden drop to 28Ω·cm 2 (Within 24 hours), the model revised the risk to “high.” Endoscopic review confirmed the expansion of the mucosal ulcer (UCEIS increased from 4 to 6), and intensive treatment was initiated promptly.

[0098] Biosafety: The wearable electrode passed the biocompatibility test (ISO 10993) and showed no skin irritation (mouse model, n=20). Model interpretability: SHAP value analysis showed that low-frequency impedance contributed the most (weighted 42%), followed by elastic modulus (35%).

[0099] Provide risk driver report (such as "impedance decreased by 30% + crypt density <40 / mm 2 " triggering a high-risk warning).

[0100] In this embodiment, a dynamic risk assessment (AUC > 0.9) for ulcerative colitis was achieved using a composite parameter set of ultrasound elastography (to quantify stiffness), optical coherence tomography (OCT) (to assess mucosal integrity), and wearable impedance spectroscopy (to invert permeability) combined with an LSTM-random forest hybrid model. Real-time impedance calibration reduced prediction error by 35%, and the system can be integrated into clinical workflows, providing precise support for early intervention.

Near-field communication transmission: Multimodal data is transmitted to an in vitro analysis terminal in real time via near-field communication. Time-resolved signal processing of multimodal datasets: Fluorescence decay curve and electrochemical response time difference: Time-resolved signal processing is performed on multimodal datasets, and the difference between fluorescence decay curve and electrochemical response time is used to distinguish between surface and deep intestinal mucosal barrier damage.

[0115] Specific data: In the surface barrier damage model, the half-life of the fluorescence decay curve is 1.0ns, and the electrochemical response time is 0.5s; in the deep barrier damage model, the half-life of the fluorescence decay curve is 1.5ns, and the electrochemical response time is 1.0s.

Wearable devices are used to measure the intestinal electric field impedance spectrum to invert the changes in permeability between intestinal epithelial cells, and obtain a set of intestinal wall mechanical-electrophysiological composite parameters. These parameters are input into a personalized prediction model, combined with the real-time impedance spectrum calibration model prediction value, and the corrected disease progression risk level is output.

[0147] Specifically, multimodal biophysical parameters are collected simultaneously: high-frequency ultrasound elastography is used to obtain the intestinal wall shear wave velocity and Young's modulus distribution map to quantify the intestinal wall hardness gradient; frequency-domain optical coherence tomography is used to scan the mucosal layer to extract goblet cell density, mucus layer thickness, and crypt structural integrity index; an alternating electric field is applied through a wearable flexible electrode array to invert the dynamic changes of intestinal epithelial cell resistance and transmembrane capacitance based on the Cole-Cole impedance model; composite parameter set construction and feature fusion: the intestinal wall shear wave velocity, goblet cell density, and intestinal epithelial cell resistance values are spatiotemporally aligned to generate a three-dimensional intestinal segment mechanical-electrophysiological fusion thermal map;

[0148] Define the composite parameter barrier stress index:

[0149]

[0150] Among them, SWV max Indicates the maximum value of the intestinal wall shear wave velocity, which reflects the hardness or elasticity of the intestinal wall tissue and can be measured in real time by ultrasound elastography. min The minimum value of the electrical resistance between intestinal epithelial cells is an important indicator for evaluating intestinal barrier function and reflects the integrity of the tight junctions between epithelial cells. α and β are adaptive weight coefficients based on the patient's historical data.

[0162] Define the composite parameter barrier stress index (BSI)

[0163] Formula:

[0164] Adaptive weight coefficients: α = 0.6, β = 0.4 (adjusted based on patient historical data).

[0165] Specific calculation: Taking a certain patient as an example, SWV_max = 15 m / s, TEER_min = 200 Ω·cm 2 , mucus layer thickness = 100 μm (baseline value is 150 μm).

[0166]

Specific data (example): The impedance phase angle range is - 45° to 45°, and the opening - closing probability of tight junctions is 0 - 1 (dimensionless).

[0168] Extended Kalman filter algorithm. Method: Using the real - time impedance data as the observation value to dynamically correct the prediction results of the Transformer model. Specific data (example): The Transformer model predicts TEER to be 250 Ω·cm 2 , the measured TEER is 220 Ω·cm 2 .

[0170]

[0171] Specific calculation (example): Assuming d(BSI) / dt = 0.05 (estimated based on historical data), then

[0172]

[0173] Risk level stratified output. Risk level classification: Level I: RCF ≤ 0.2 and BSI < 30; Level II: 0.2 < RCF ≤ 0.5 or 30 ≤ BSI < 60; Level III: RCF > 0.5 or BSI ≥ 60.

[0174] Specific judgment (example): For a certain patient, RCF = 0.07, BSI = 0.375, belonging to Level I risk.

[0177] Cross-omics causal network construction: Using a Bayesian network-based causal inference algorithm, with phage intervention as an exogenous variable, the causal chain of bacterial species, metabolites, and barrier function parameters (BSI, TEER) was analyzed; the contribution of key regulatory pathways was defined as CRC:

[0178]

[0179] in, It indicates the degree of influence of changes in metabolite concentration on BSI; Indicates the degree of influence of changes in bacterial abundance on metabolite concentrations;

[0181] Microbiome-host metabolic model prediction: Genome-scale metabolic network models (GEMs) are constructed to integrate the metabolic flux of patient-specific microbiota and host intestinal cells; flux balance analysis (FBA) is used to predict the short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) synthesis rate and mucin secretion after targeted regulation; if the predicted SCFA synthesis rate increases by ≥30% and the error with the measured value is <15%, the microbiome intervention plan is considered effective.

[0182] It is important to note that phage-directed regulation and metabolomics feedback, phage cocktail preparation construction, and metagenomic sequencing data revealed a high abundance of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) in the patient's intestine, at 10^7 CFU / g feces. Phage screening: Phages specific for AIEC were screened from the phage library to construct a phage cocktail preparation.

[0183] Nanopore sequencing monitored changes in the microbiome. Baseline abundance: Before intervention, the abundance of AIEC was 10^7 CFU / g feces. Post-intervention monitoring: Real-time nanopore sequencing monitored changes in the microbiome after phage intervention, revealing that the abundance of AIEC decreased to 10^5 CFU / g feces. Pathogen clearance rate (CR): CR = 1 - post-intervention abundance / baseline abundance = 1 - 10^7 = 0.99, indicating 99% AIEC clearance.

[0184] Mass spectrometry imaging was used to detect metabolite changes. Metabolite detection: Combined mass spectrometry imaging was used to detect changes in the spatial distribution of metabolites such as secondary bile acids and tryptophan derivatives in intestinal tissue. Specific data: Before intervention, the average concentration of secondary bile acids was 5 μM, and the average concentration of tryptophan derivatives was 2 μM; after intervention, the average concentration of secondary bile acids increased to 8 μM, and the average concentration of tryptophan derivatives increased to 3.5 μM. Evaluation: Changes in metabolite concentrations indicate that phage intervention has positively altered the intestinal metabolic environment, contributing to improved intestinal barrier function.

[0185] Cross-omics causal network construction and Bayesian network causal inference of exogenous variables: phage intervention was used as the exogenous variable. Causal chain analysis: A Bayesian network-based causal inference algorithm was used to analyze the causal chain between bacterial species (such as Faecalibacterium), metabolites (such as butyrate), and barrier function parameters (BSI, TEER).

[0186] Calculation of key regulatory pathway contribution (CRC), formula application:

[0187]

[0188] Specific data: Taking Faecalibacterium→Butyrate→Occludin expression↑ as an example, the calculated CRC=0.6, indicating that this pathway has a high contribution to barrier function.

[0189] Screening therapeutic targets: Screening microbiota-metabolite pairs with CRC>0.5 as therapeutic targets, such as Faecalibacterium→butyrate.

[0190] Microbiome-host metabolic model prediction, genome-scale metabolic network model (GEMs) construction, data integration: integration of patient-specific microbiome and host intestinal cell metabolic flux data. Model construction: construction of genome-scale metabolic network models (GEMs).

[0191] Flux balance analysis (FBA) prediction, prediction goal: predict the short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) synthesis rate and mucin secretion after targeted regulation. Specific data: Before intervention, the SCFA synthesis rate was 5mmol / L / h, and the mucin secretion was 10mg / L / h. Through FBA prediction, the SCFA synthesis rate increased to 7mmol / L / h and the mucin secretion increased to 12mg / L / h after targeted regulation. Verification: The measured SCFA synthesis rate was 6.8mmol / L / h, and the error with the predicted value was 2.86%, which was less than 15%; the measured value of mucin secretion was 11.8mg / L / h, which was close to the predicted value. Judgment: Since the predicted SCFA synthesis rate increased by ≥30% and the error with the measured value was <15%, the microbiome intervention plan was judged to be effective.
