To evaluate the efficacy of ChatGPT 4 (GPT-4) in delivering genetic information about BRCA1, HFE, and MLH1, building on previous findings with ChatGPT 3.5 (GPT-3.5). To focus on assessing the utility, limitations, and ethical implications of using ChatGPT in medical settings.

Accurately identifying clinical phenotypes from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) provides additional insights into patients' health, especially when such information is unavailable in structured data. This study evaluates the application of OpenAI's Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT)-4 model to identify clinical phenotypes from EHR text in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The goal was to identify disease stages, treatments and progression utilizing GPT-4, and compare its performance against GPT-3.5-turbo, Flan-T5-xl, Flan-T5-xxl [...]

Firearm violence constitutes a public health crisis in the United States, but comprehensive data infrastructure is lacking to study this problem. To address this challenge, we used natural language processing (NLP) to classify court record documents from alleged violent crimes as firearm-related or non-firearm-related.

Serum creatinine (SCr) is the primary biomarker for assessing kidney function; however, it may lag behind true kidney function, especially in instances of acute kidney injury (AKI). The objective of the work is to develop Nephrocast, a deep-learning model to predict next-day SCr in adult patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU).

This article focuses on the role of the electronic health record (EHR) to generate meaningful formative feedback for medical students in the clinical setting. Despite the scores of clinical data housed within the EHR, medical educators have only just begun to tap into this data to enhance student learning. Literature to-date has focused almost exclusively on resident education.

We aimed to develop and validate a novel multimodal framework Hierarchical Multi-task Auxiliary Learning (HiMAL) framework, for predicting cognitive composite functions as auxiliary tasks that estimate the longitudinal risk of transition from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Starting in 2018, the 'Women in American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) Podcast' was women-focused, in 2021 the podcast was rebranded and relaunched as the "For Your Informatics Podcast" (FYI) to expand the scope of the podcast to include other historically underrepresented groups. That expansion of the scope, together with a rebranding and marketing campaign, led to a larger audience and engagement of the AMIA community.

Electronic health records (EHRs) provide opportunities for the development of computable predictive tools. Conventional machine learning methods and deep learning methods have been widely used for this task, with the approach of usually designing one tool for one clinical outcome. Here we developed PheW2P2V, a Phenome-Wide prediction framework using Weighted Patient Vectors. PheW2P2V conducts tailored predictions for phenome-wide phenotypes using numeric representations of patients' past medical records weighted based on [...]

This study aimed to investigate the predictive capabilities of historical patient records to predict patient adverse outcomes such as mortality, readmission, and prolonged length of stay (PLOS).

 The use of artificial intelligence-driven code completion tools, particularly the integration of GitHub Copilot with Visual Studio, has potential implications for Health Informatics education, particularly for students learning SQL and Python.
