Article / Publication Details Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes markedly affects the formation and development of intracranial atherosclerosis. The study was aimed at evaluating whether radiomics features can help distinguish plaques primarily associated with diabetes. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who were admitted to our center because of acute ischemic stroke due to intracranial atherosclerosis between 2016 and 2022. Clinical data, blood biomarkers, conventional plaque features and plaque radiomics features were collected for all patients. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were determined from logistic regression models. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the ROC curve (AUC) were used to describe diagnostic performance. The DeLong test was used to compare differences between models. Results: Overall, 157 patients (115 men; mean age, 58.7 ± 10.7 years) were enrolled. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that plaque length (OR: 1.17; 95% CI: 1.07–1.28) and area (OR: 1.13; 95% CI: 1.02–1.24) were independently associated with diabetes. On combining plaque length and area as a conventional model, the AUCs of the training and validation cohorts for identifying diabetes patients were 0.789 and 0.720, respectively. On combining radiomics features on T1WI and contrast-enhanced T1WI sequences, a better diagnostic value was obtained in the training and validation cohorts (AUC: 0.889 and 0.861). The DeLong test showed the model combining radiomics and conventional plaque features performed better than the conventional model in both cohorts (p
