To assess whether an individual's degree of psychological resilience can be determined from physiological metrics passively collected from a wearable device.

The aim of this study was to design and assess the formative usability of a novel patient portal intervention designed to empower patients with diabetes to initiate orders for diabetes-related monitoring and preventive services.

Weak supervision holds significant promise to improve clinical natural language processing by leveraging domain resources and expertise instead of large manually annotated datasets alone. Here, our objective is to evaluate a weak supervision approach to extract spatial information from radiology reports.

This study sought to create natural language processing algorithms to extract the presence of social factors from clinical text in 3 areas: (1) housing, (2) financial, and (3) unemployment. For generalizability, finalized models were validated on data from a separate health system for generalizability.

The use of electronic health record (EHR)-embedded child abuse clinical decision support (CA-CDS) may help decrease morbidity from child maltreatment. We previously reported on the development of CA-CDS in Epic and Allscripts. The objective of this study was to implement CA-CDS into Epic and Allscripts and determine its effects on identification, evaluation, and reporting of suspected child maltreatment.

To develop and apply a natural language processing (NLP)-based approach to analyze public sentiments on social media and their geographic pattern in the United States toward coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. We also aim to provide insights to facilitate the understanding of the public attitudes and concerns regarding COVID-19 vaccination.

Soft-tissue sarcomas (STSs) of the extremities are a group of malignancies arising from the mesenchymal cells that may develop distant metastases or local recurrence. In this article, we propose a novel methodology aimed to predict metastases and recurrence risk in patients with these malignancies by evaluating magnetic resonance radiomic features that will be formally verified through formal logic models.

Our objective is to assess the accuracy of the COVID-19 vaccination status within the electronic health record (EHR) for a panel of patients in a primary care practice when manual queries of the state immunization databases are required to access outside immunization records.

Evaluate self-reported electronic screening (eScreening) in a VA Transition Care Management Program (TCM) to improve the accuracy and completeness of administrative ethnicity and race data.

Older adults with multimorbidities have the highest rate of emergency department (ED) usage. These patients are typically on numerous medications, may have underlying dementia, and often present with falls and delirium. Identifying these high-risk older adults for possible intervention is challenging in the ED setting since available screening methods are manual and resource-intensive. The objective is to study the electronic medical record (EMR) use for identifying high-risk older adults in [...]
