Predicting Rotator Cuff Tears Using Data Mining and Bayesian Likelihood Ratios

Abstract: ObjectivesRotator cuff tear is a common cause of shoulder diseases. Correct diagnosis of rotator cuff tears can save patients from further invasive, costly and painful tests. This study used predictive data mining and Bayesian theory to improve the accuracy of diagnosing rotator cuff tears by clinical examination alone.MethodsIn this retrospective study, 169 patients who had a preliminary diagnosis of rotator cuff tear on the basis of clinical evaluation followed by confirmatory MRI between 2007 and 2011 were … Show more

“…The sensitivity and specificity of the Naïve Bayesian model were 100 and 97.5 % (as showed in Table 6 ) which has given a positive LR (LR+) of 40 and a negative LR (LR−) of 0. The sensitivity and specificity of the Logistic Regression model were 96.7 and 91.67 % (as showed in Table 6 ) which has given a positive LR (LR+) of 11 and a negative LR (LR−) of 0.04 (Table 7 ) (Deeks and Altman 2004 ; Lang and Secic 1997 ; Lu et al 2014 ).…”

“…Predicting rotator cuff tear by data mining of clinical assessments has been reported 16 ; however, data on informatics‐based algorithms for rotator cuff tear and normal rotator cuff are lacking. Informatics‐based algorithms extend beyond the simple use of ICD‐9 or ICD‐10 billing codes to ascertain cases and controls.…”

“…The authors proposed the final model that the Bayesian classifier with the fuzzy discretisation of numerical attributes was accurate, and for this reason, as a promising machine learning tool that can help physicians in their decision-making process. Lu et al 22 used Bayesian theory, likelihood ratios, and predictive data mining to improve the precision in the diagnosis of rotator cuff tears. The authors concluded that this model could be a useful tool in classification and the diagnosis of rotator cuff tears.…”
