Multimodal predictions of end stage chronic kidney disease from asymptomatic individuals for discovery of genomic biomarkers
摘要
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex condition where the kidneys are damaged and progressively lose their ability to filter blood, 10% of the world population have the disease that often goes undetected until it is too late for intervention. Using the UK Biobank (UKBB) we constructed a CKD cohort of patients (n = 46,986) with genomic, clinical and demographic data available, a subset (n = 2,151) having also whole body Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. We used this multimodal cohort to successfully predict, from initially healthy patients, their 5-year outcomes for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD, n = 210, AUC = 0.804
