Disease profiles and access to care differ between rural and urban populations. The aim of this study is to examine the association of rurality with electronic health record-derived disease profiles and heart failure risk.

Childhood obesity and respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are 2 major global public health issues that frequently co-occur and are closely interrelated. Early detection of children with prior RTIs who are at high obesity risk is crucial for targeted interventions. This study integrates interpretable machine learning (ML) models and a deep learning network to develop an obesity risk prediction model in a large pediatric cohort.

Clinicians are increasingly using emoji in digital communication, but limited qualitative work has examined how they assess the appropriateness, risks, and benefits of this practice.

Embedded pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs) are conducted as part of routine clinical care and therefore use data collected from real-world data sources, such as electronic health record systems and administrative claims. A common approach for using these types of data across all phases of trial conduct is to create a computable phenotype (an explicitly defined data query data, including specified data types, data codes, and logical parameters) to capture patients [...]

To develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appointment no-shows and test the effectiveness of a targeted phone call intervention in reducing the no-show rate.

To clarify how validation requirements should be specified for medical digital twins used in clinical decision support, particularly when such systems are intended to compare interventions, treatment timings, dosages, or sequential care strategies.

To evaluate the real-world performance of a transformer-based natural language processing (NLP) system for extracting Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) from clinical notes, using survey-based SDoH measures a reference comparators.

Accurately predicting outcomes for critically ill cancer patients remains challenging. This study aimed to integrate biologically relevant iron metabolism markers into short-term mortality prediction and to develop an interpretable, externally validated model based on a tabular prior-data fitted network (TabPFN) for risk stratification in this population.

Mental disorders are very common among children and adolescents around the world. In Mongolia, the international Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is used to detect mental disorders in adolescents. In this article, different types of classification methods were compared to determine adolescent emotional and behavioral problems using the SDQ.

We extracted a validated disease activity measure in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), the Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), from a large tertiary academic medical center electronic health record (EHR) using an automated large language model (LLM)-based approach without requiring model pretraining.
