Support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and logistic regression (LR) were used to establish the prediction model, and microarray data from GEO was analyzed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with the dichotomous outcomes of clinical pregnancy (pregnant vs. non-pregnant). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis provided multi-dimensional validation for selected DMGs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 338 differentially methylated CpG sites associated with 146 unique genes across the genome were identified. Among the identified pathways, the prominent ones were involved in the regulation of cell growth and oocyte development (hsa04340, hsa04012, hsa04914, hsa04614, hsa04913, hsa04020, and hsa00510). The area under the curve (AUC) of machine learning classifiers was 0.94 (SVM) vs. 0.88 (RF) vs. 0.97 (LR). 196 DEGs were found in transcriptional microarray. Mapped genes were selected through overlapping enriched pathways in transcriptional profiles and methylated data of CCs, predictive of successful pregnancy.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Methylated profiles of CCs were significantly different between women receiving ICSI-IVF procedures that conceived successfully and those that did not conceive. Machine learning approaches are powerful tools that may provide crucial information for prognostic assessment. Pathway analysis may be another way in multiomics analysis of cumulus cells.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpubh.2022.924539","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,30]],"date-time":"2022-06-30T08:36:37Z","timestamp":1656578197000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Multi-Omics Analysis and Machine Learning Prediction Model for Pregnancy Outcomes After Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection\u2013in vitro Fertilization"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Fangying","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yixin","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qinyun","family":"Mai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"455.e1","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajog.2007.12.030","article-title":"Gene expression profiling of human oocytes at different maturational stages and after in vitro maturation","volume":"198","author":"Wells","year":"2008","journal-title":"Am J.
