Medical coding structures health-care data for research, quality monitoring, and policy. This study assesses the potential of large language models (LLMs) to assign International Classification of Primary Care, 2nd edition (ICPC-2) codes using the output of a domain-specific search engine.

Identifying patients at high risk for atrial fibrillation (AF) after cryptogenic stroke remains a challenge, particularly in settings with limited access to long-term cardiac monitoring. The AFibrisk platform, a free digital decision-support tool, integrates 19 validated AF prediction scores to support post-stroke triage. We aimed to assess the concordance of AFibrisk-supported classification decisions with expert electrophysiologist consensus and compare performance across evaluator groups with different levels of clinical experience.

To develop and validate machine learning (ML) models that predict probable cause of death (CoD) using structured electronic health record (EHR) data, unstructured clinical notes, and publicly available sources.

The expansion of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled clinical decision support (CDS) requires nurses to interpret complex model outputs. However, their cognitive readiness remains underexplored, particularly in terms of their understanding of statistics. To assess nurses' understanding of key statistical concepts underlying AI predictions and their relationship to health numeracy.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a major health crisis worldwide significantly impacting mental well-being. In this study, our objective is to assess the resilience of pre-pandemic depression level prediction models when applied to COVID-19 era data. We leverage advanced Machine Learning (ML) and Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) techniques to identify the key factors impacting the shifts in depression levels during the pandemic. We aim to align the later identification with interventions [...]

This study aims to develop a detailed understanding of provider and Information Technology (IT) operations staff experiences and attitudes regarding patients' ability to edit their data. This includes understanding barriers to developing a process to write back data into the electronic health record (EHR) as well as a concrete set of recommendations on incorporating patient-generated data into the EHR.

To develop a multimodal pediatric critical care datamart supporting predictive modeling and decision support tool development, integrating high-resolution physiologic and clinical data and future clinical deployment.

Electronic health record (EHR) order preference lists and order sets potentially improve efficiency but have limited utility in complex primary care settings. We assessed adoption, impact on ordering efficiency, and clinician perceptions of a comprehensive set of nested order panels (xOrders) for adult primary care.

This study explores the capability of passive digital sensor data from smartphones and smartwatches to predict self-reported ecological momentary assessments (EMA) of affect, motivation, interest, and pleasure in activities in an unseen test sample.

Generative AI chatbots are revolutionizing health education by making complex information more accessible to the public. However, their use presents risks, including bias, hallucinations, ethical concerns, and misinformation, which are particularly critical in health contexts where incorrect guidance can have serious consequences. Ensuring safety, accuracy, and reliability is essential, especially in maternal and infant health.
