To quantify differences between (1) stratifying patients by predicted disease onset risk alone and (2) stratifying by predicted disease onset risk and severity of downstream outcomes. We perform a case study of predicting sepsis.

The objective of this work is to demonstrate the value of simulation testing for rapidly evaluating artificial intelligence (AI) products.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based approaches for extracting Social Drivers of Health (SDoH) from clinical notes offer healthcare systems an efficient way to identify patients' social needs, yet we know little about the acceptability of this approach to patients and clinicians. We investigated patient and clinician acceptability through interviews.

Although biomedical informatics has multiple roles to play in addressing the climate crisis, collaborative action and research agendas have yet to be developed. As a first step, AMIA's new Climate, Health, and Informatics Working Group held a mini-summit entitled Climate and health: How can informatics help? during the AMIA 2023 Fall Symposium to define an initial set of areas of interest and begin mobilizing informaticians to confront the urgent challenges [...]

Artificial intelligence (AI) models utilizing electronic health record data for disease prediction can enhance risk stratification but may lack specificity, which is crucial for reducing the economic and psychological burdens associated with false positives. This study aims to evaluate the impact of confounders on the specificity of single-outcome prediction models and assess the effectiveness of a multi-class architecture in mitigating outcome conflation.

This study aimed to develop a novel multi-stage self-supervised learning model tailored for the accurate classification of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images in ophthalmology reducing reliance on costly labeled datasets while maintaining high diagnostic accuracy.

Direct electronic access to multiple electronic health record (EHR) systems through patient portals offers a novel avenue for decentralized research. Given the critical value of patient characterization, we sought to compare computable evaluation of health conditions from patient-portal EHR against the traditional self-report.

To measure hospital engagement in interoperable exchange of health-related social needs (HRSN) data.
