Cloud-based solutions are a modern-day necessity for data intense computing. This case report describes in detail the development and implementation of Amazon Web Services (AWS) at Emory-a secure, reliable, and scalable platform to store and analyze identifiable research data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

To provide a real-world example on how and to what extent Health Level Seven Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) implements the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) guiding principles for scientific data. Additionally, presents a list of FAIR implementation choices for supporting future FAIR implementations that use FHIR.

To design a novel artificial intelligence-based software platform that allows users to analyze text data by identifying various coherent topics and parts of the data related to a specific research theme-of-interest (TOI).

High-risk pregnancy (HRP) conditions such as gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), hypertension (HTN), and peripartum depression (PPD) affect maternal and neonatal health. Patient engagement is critical for effective HRP management (HRPM). While digital technologies and analytics hold promise, emerging research indicates limited and suboptimal support offered by the highly prevalent pregnancy digital solutions within the commercial marketplace. In this article, we describe our efforts to develop a portfolio of digital products [...]

In the United States, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is responsible for high mortality and significant healthcare costs, with the number of cases sharply increasing in the past 2 decades. In this study, we aimed to reduce these impacts by developing an ESKD model for predicting its occurrence in a 2-year period.

This study aimed to develop an approach to enhance the model precision by artificial images.

The Pediatric Cancer Data Commons (PCDC)-a project of Data for the Common Good-houses clinical pediatric oncology data and utilizes the open-source Gen3 platform. To meet the needs of end users, the PCDC development team expanded the out-of-box functionality and developed additional custom features that should be useful to any group developing similar data commons.

To link compliant, universal Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) ophthalmic imaging data at the individual patient level with the American Academy of Ophthalmology IRIS® Registry (Intelligent Research in Sight).

Early discontinuation is common among breast cancer patients taking aromatase inhibitors (AIs). Although several predictors have been identified, it is unclear how to simultaneously consider multiple risk factors for an individual. We sought to develop a tool for prediction of AI discontinuation and to explore how predictive value of risk factors changes with time.

Determine the economic cost or benefit of expanding electronic case reporting (eCR) for 29 reportable conditions beyond the initial eCR implementation for COVID-19 at an academic health center.
