Understand perceived barriers to and facilitators of using clinical informatics applications for pharmacogenomic (PGx) implementation in resource-limited settings.

The objectives of this study were to create a database of public health content from a sample of legacy media, and to compare the prevalence of public health themes in print and web-based versions over time.

The All of Us Evenings with Genetics (EwG) Research Program at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), funded to engage research scholars to work with the All of Us data, developed a training curriculum for the Researcher Workbench, the platform to access and analyze All of Us data. All of Us EwG developed the curriculum so that it could teach scholars regardless of their skills and background in programming languages and [...]

The increasing reliance on electronic health records (EHRs) for research and clinical care necessitates robust methods for assessing data quality and identifying inconsistencies. To address this need, we develop and apply the incongruence rate (IR) using sex-specific medical conditions. We also characterized participants with incongruent records to better understand the scope and nature of data discrepancies.

Research on the conditions under which electronic cigarette (EC) use produces a net reduction in the population harm attributable to combusted cigarette (CC) use requires the triangulation of information from cohort(s) of smokers, non-smokers, EC users, and dual-users of all varieties.

To pioneer the first artificial intelligence system integrating radiological and objective clinical data, simulating the clinical reasoning process, for the early prediction of high-risk influenza patients.

Machine learning applications for longitudinal electronic health records often forecast the risk of events at fixed time points, whereas survival analysis achieves dynamic risk prediction by estimating time-to-event distributions. Here, we propose a novel conditional variational autoencoder-based method, DySurv, which uses a combination of static and longitudinal measurements from electronic health records to estimate the individual risk of death dynamically.

This communication presents the results of defining a tribal health jurisdiction by a combination of tribal affiliation (TA) and case address.

This article presents the novel BioASQ Synergy research process which aims to facilitate the interaction between biomedical experts and automated question-answering systems.

Patients are increasingly being given direct access to their medical records. However, radiology reports are written for clinicians and typically contain medical jargon, which can be confusing. One solution is for radiologists to provide a "colloquial" version that is accessible to the layperson. Because manually generating these colloquial translations would represent a significant burden for radiologists, a way to automatically produce accurate, accessible patient-facing reports is desired. We propose a [...]
