To develop and validate a machine learning model that helps physician advisors efficiently identify hospital admission denials likely to be overturned on appeal.

The predictive intensive care unit (ICU) scoring system is crucial for predicting patient outcomes, particularly mortality. Traditional scoring systems rely mainly on structured clinical data from electronic health records, which can overlook important clinical information in narratives and images.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is an effective measure to prevent and control the diseases caused by HPV. However, widespread misinformation and vaccine hesitancy remain significant barriers to its uptake. This study focuses on the development of VaxBot-HPV, a chatbot aimed at improving health literacy and promoting vaccination uptake by providing information and answering questions about the HPV vaccine.

The automatic detection of stance on social media is an important task for public health applications, especially in the context of health crises. Unfortunately, existing models are typically trained on English corpora. Considering the benefits of extending research to other widely spoken languages, the goal of this study is to develop stance detection models for social media posts in Spanish.

This study evaluates the impact of an ambient artificial intelligence (AI) documentation platform on clinicians' perceptions of documentation workflow.

The lack of a publicly accessible abdominal X-ray (AXR) dataset has hindered necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) research. While significant strides have been made in applying natural language processing (NLP) to radiology reports, most efforts have focused on chest radiology. Development of an accurate NLP model to identify features of NEC on abdominal radiograph can support efforts to improve diagnostic accuracy for this and other rare pediatric conditions.

Demonstrate a methodology for improving discoverability of rare disease datasets by enriching source data with biological associations.

To enhance the accuracy of information retrieval from pharmacovigilance (PV) databases by employing Large Language Models (LLMs) to convert natural language queries (NLQs) into Structured Query Language (SQL) queries, leveraging a business context document.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology promises to be a powerful tool in addressing the global health challenges posed by tuberculosis (TB). However, evidence for its real-world impact is lacking, which may hinder safe, responsible adoption. This case study addresses this gap by assessing the technical performance, usability and workflow aspects, and health impact of implementing a commercial AI system (qXR by Qure.ai) to support Australian radiologists in diagnosing pulmonary TB.

Digital health (patient portals, remote monitoring devices, video visits) is a routine part of health care, though the digital divide may affect access.
