Associations between where and how much brain lesion damage a patient has suffered, and the particular impairments that injury has caused (lesion-symptom associations) offer potentially compelling insights into how the brain implements cognition.A better understanding of those associations can also fill a gap in current stroke medicine by helping us to predict how individual patients might recover from post-stroke impairments.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]\n<h2>The Disconnectome Symptom Discoverer model<\/h2>\n<p>Most recent work in this area employs machine learning models trained with data from stroke patients whose mid-to-long-term outcomes are known. These machine learning models are tested by predicting new outcomes\u2014typically scores on standardized tests of post-stroke impairment\u2014for patients whose data were not used to train the model.<\/p>\n<p>Traditionally, these validation results have been shared in peer-reviewed publications describing the model and its training.<\/p>\n<p>But recently, and for the first time in this field (as far as researchers know), one of these pre-trained models has been made public\u2014The Disconnectome Symptom Discoverer model (DSD) which draws its predictors from structural disconnection information inferred from stroke patients\u2019 brain MRI.<\/p>\n<h2>Testing the DSD model<\/h2>\n<p>In this study, the researchers, including <a href=\"https:\/\/vbhi-institute.org\/en\/equipe\/michel-thiebaut-de-schotten\/\">Michel Thi\u00e9baut de Schotten<\/a>, member of our Executive Committe, test the DSD model on wholly independent data, never seen by the model authors, before they published it. Specifically, they test whether its predictive performance is just as accurate as (i.e. not significantly worse than) that reported in the original (Washington University) dataset, when predicting new patients\u2019 outcomes at a similar time post-stroke (\u223c1 year post-stroke) and also in another independent sample tested later (5+ years) post-stroke.<\/p>\n<p>The results suggest that the DSD model generalized out-of-sample to patients not seen by the model\u2019s authors before they released it.<\/p>\n<p>Despite some limitations, the results of this study are positive because the researchers observe that the DSD model to perform roughly as well in the patients in their independent sample as in the model authors\u2019 own data, despite the differences between the two datasets. That this equivalence wanes when predicting the same skills many years after stroke, highlights the need to model changes in language skills over many years post-stroke.<\/p>\n<p>As far as the researchers know, this is the first time that a pre-trained post-stroke prognostic model has been validated in this way, and in this sense, the DSD model represents a definite advance for the field.<\/p>\n<h2>Scientific publication<\/h2>\n<p>Thomas M H Hope, Douglas Neville, Lia Talozzi, Chris Foulon, Stephanie J Forkel, Michel Thiebaut de Schotten, Cathy J Price, <em>Testing the disconnectome symptom discoverer model on out-of-sample post-stroke language outcomes<\/em>, Brain, Volume 147, Issue 2, February 2024, Pages e11\u2013e13, <a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/brain\/awad352\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/brain\/awad352<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Photo credits: Photo de <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/fr\/@bhautik_patel3?utm_content=creditCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=unsplash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bhautik Patel<\/a> sur <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/fr\/photos\/un-tas-de-lumieres-qui-sont-sur-un-arbre-NVprB2Xt1bA?utm_content=creditCopyText&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_source=unsplash\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Unsplash<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Validation of a pre-trained post-stroke prognostic model.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1024,"featured_media":2248,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-publication-scientifique","entry","has-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
