To assess the capacity of a bespoke artificial intelligence (AI) process to help medical writers efficiently generate quality plain language summary abstracts (PLSAs).

This work aims to develop a methodology for transforming Health Level 7 (HL7) Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) documents into the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model (CDM). The described method seeks to improve the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) design process by using HL7 CDA Template definitions and the CDA Refined Message Information Model (CDA R-MIM).

Sepsis recognition among infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is challenging and delays in recognition can result in devastating consequences. Although predictive models may improve sepsis outcomes, clinical adoption has been limited. Our focus was to align model behavior with clinician information needs by developing a machine learning (ML) pipeline with two components: (1) a model to predict baseline sepsis risk and (2) a model to detect evolving [...]

The vast and complex nature of human genomic sequencing data presents challenges for effective analysis. This review aims to investigate the application of natural language processing (NLP) techniques, particularly large language models (LLMs) and transformer architectures, in deciphering genomic codes, focusing on tokenization, transformer models, and regulatory annotation prediction. The goal of this review is to assess data and model accessibility in the most recent literature, gaining a better understanding [...]

Accurate, complete allergy histories are critical for decision-making and medication prescription. However, allergy information is often spread across the electronic health record (EHR); thus, allergy lists are often inaccurate or incomplete. Discrepant allergy information can lead to suboptimal or unsafe clinical care and contribute to alert fatigue. We developed an allergy reconciliation module within Mass General Brigham (MGB)'s EHR to support accurate and intuitive reconciliation of discrepancies in the allergy [...]

With the global population aging and advancements in the medical system, long-term care in healthcare institutions and home settings has become essential for older adults with disabilities. However, the diverse and scattered care requirements of these individuals make developing effective long-term care plans heavily reliant on professional nursing staff, and even experienced caregivers may make mistakes or face confusion during the care plan development process. Consequently, there is a rigid [...]

Explanations help to understand why anomaly detection algorithms identify data as anomalous. This study evaluates whether robustly standardized explanation scores correctly identify the implausible variables that make cancer data anomalous.

The ICD-10-CM classification system contains more specificity than its predecessor ICD-9-CM. A stated reason for transitioning to ICD-10-CM was to increase the availability of detailed data. This study aims to determine whether the increased specificity contained in ICD-10-CM is utilized in the ambulatory care setting and inform an evidence-based approach to evaluate ICD-11 content for implementation planning in the United States.

To assess the prevalence of recommended design elements in implemented electronic health record (EHR) interruptive alerts across pediatric care settings.
