Machine Learning with Alpha Toxin Phenotype to Predict Clinical Outcome in Patients with Staphylococcus aureus Bloodstream Infection.

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream (SAB) infection remains a leading cause of sepsis-related mortality. Yet, current treatment does not account for variable virulence traits that mediate host dysregulated immune response, such as SA α-toxin (Hla)-mediated thrombocytopenia. Here, we applied machine learning (ML) to bacterial growth images combined with platelet count data to predict patient outcomes. We profiled...
