    A Machine Learning Model for Predicting Oligoclonal Band Positivity Using Routine Cerebrospinal Fluid and Serum Biochemical Markers
    (Oxford University Press Inc, 2025) Gözgöz, Hazar; Orhan, Oğuzhan; Akan Konuk, Başak; Akan, Pınar
    OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a machine learning model for predicting oligoclonal band (OCB) positivity using routine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum biochemical markers to improve the diagnostic accuracy and efficiency of assessing intrathecal immunoglobulin G (IgG) synthesis. METHODS: In this retrospective study (n = 1709), an ensemble model was developed using 8 refined CSF and serum parameters. Combining optimized CatBoost, XGBoost, and LightGBM classifiers, the model was trained and evaluated using a 2-phase workflow, including 5-fold cross-validation and validation on independent internal (n = 342) and external (n = 49) cohorts. RESULTS: The developed ensemble model achieved a receiver operating characteristic-area under the curve (ROC-AUC) of 0.902 on the internal test set, significantly outperforming the conventional IgG index (ROC-AUC, 0.795). At its optimal threshold, the model demonstrated an accuracy of 0.830, with a sensitivity of 0.714 and a specificity of 0.916. On the external validation cohort, it achieved 90% accuracy and 96% sensitivity. CONCLUSIONS: A novel machine learning ensemble model accurately predicts OCB positivity using routine laboratory data and demonstrates superior performance compared with the IgG index. This approach represents a significant step in applying artificial intelligence in laboratory medicine, with the potential to enhance diagnostic efficiency. Prospective, multicenter validation is essential for broader clinical implementation. © The Author(s) 2025.

    Tcgex: a Powerful Visual Interface for Exploring and Analyzing Cancer Gene Expression Data

    Analyzing gene expression data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and similar repositories often requires advanced coding skills, creating a barrier for many researchers. To address this challenge, we developed The Cancer Genome Explorer (TCGEx), a user-friendly, web-based platform for conducting sophisticated analyses such as survival modeling, gene set enrichment analysis, unsupervised clustering, and linear regression-based machine learning. TCGEx provides access to preprocessed TCGA data and immune checkpoint inhibition studies while allowing integration of user-uploaded data sets. Using TCGEx, we explore molecular subsets of human melanoma and identify microRNAs associated with intratumoral immunity. These findings are validated with independent clinical trial data on immune checkpoint inhibitors for melanoma and other cancers. In addition, we identify cytokine genes that can be used to predict treatment responses to various immune checkpoint inhibitors prior to treatment. Built on the R/Shiny framework, TCGEx offers customizable features to adapt analyses for diverse research contexts and generate publication-ready visualizations. TCGEx is freely available at https://tcgex.iyte.edu.tr, providing an accessible tool to extract insights from cancer transcriptomics data.
