Abstract

Research suggests that individuals who experience prolonged exposure to stress may be at higher risk for developing psychological stress disorders. Currently, psychological stress is primarily evaluated by professional physicians using rating scales, which may be prone to subjective biases and limitations of the scales. Therefore, it is imperative to explore more objective, accurate, and efficient biomarkers for evaluating the level of psychological stress in an individual. In this study, we utilized 4D data-independent acquisition (4D-DIA) proteomics for quantitative protein analysis, and then employed support vector machine (SVM) combined with SHAP interpretation algorithm to identify potential biomarkers for psychological stress levels. Biomarkers validation was subsequently achieved through machine learning classification and a substantial amount of a priori knowledge derived from the knowledge graph. We performed cross-validation of the biomarkers using two batches of data, and the results showed that the combination of Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and Fibronectin yielded an average area under the curve (AUC) of 92%, an average accuracy of 86%, an average F1 score of 79%, and an average sensitivity of 83%. Therefore, this combination may represent a potential approach for detecting stress levels to prevent psychological stress disorders.
