To identify a brief scale to accurately assess digital skills among older adults for use in identifying need for support to use digital health tools.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a rare genetic disorder affecting multiple organ systems with significant clinical heterogeneity. Managing individuals with NF1 is challenging due to variability in disease progression and outcomes and limited early risk assessment tools.

Effective communication is crucial in healthcare, and for patients with a non-English language preference (NELP), professional interpreters are recognized as the gold standard in supporting bidirectional communication. However, interpreters are not always readily available, prompting the exploration of other options for translation and interpretation. The recent developments in artificial intelligence-based neural network translation tools, namely neural machine translation (NMT) may enable robust interpretation and translation.

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) sampled from different populations can introduce unwanted biases, limit individual-level data sharing, and make the data and fitted model hardly transferable across different population groups. In this context, our main goal is to design an effective method to transfer knowledge between population groups, with computable guarantees for suitability, and that can be applied to quantify treatment disparities.

Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but accurately predicting which patients will benefit from it remains a major clinical challenge. To address this, we aim to develop a novel multimodal method, DeepAFM, that integrates histopathology, genomic features, and clinical information to predict patient responses to anti-PD-(L)1 immunotherapy.

By October 1, 2024, over 450,000 COVID-19 manuscripts were published, with 10% posted as unreviewed preprints. While they accelerate knowledge sharing, their inconsistent quality complicates systematic studies.

Evaluate the association between telemedicine intensity and ambulatory physician electronic health record (EHR) use following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Risk prediction models are used in hospitals to identify pediatric patients at risk of clinical deterioration, enabling timely interventions and rescue. The objective of this study was to develop a new explainer algorithm that uses a patient's clinical notes to generate text-based explanations for risk prediction alerts.

In real-world data (RWD), defining the observation period-the time during which a patient is considered observable-is critical for estimating incidence rates (IRs) and other outcomes. Yet, in the absence of explicit enrollment information, this period must often be inferred, introducing potential bias.
