This study aimed to optimize Fall Risk Appraisal (FRA) graphing for use in intervention programs tailored toward reducing the fall risk of older adults by using computing graphic functions in the R language.

We aimed to develop and validate a novel multimodal framework Hierarchical Multi-task Auxiliary Learning (HiMAL) framework, for predicting cognitive composite functions as auxiliary tasks that estimate the longitudinal risk of transition from Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's Disease (AD).

Delirium is a syndrome that leads to severe complications in hospitalized patients, but is considered preventable in many cases. One of the biggest challenges is to identify patients at risk in a hectic clinical routine, as most screening tools cause additional workload. The aim of this study was to validate a machine learning (ML)-based delirium prediction tool on surgical in-patients undergoing a systematic assessment of delirium.

Starting in 2018, the 'Women in American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) Podcast' was women-focused, in 2021 the podcast was rebranded and relaunched as the "For Your Informatics Podcast" (FYI) to expand the scope of the podcast to include other historically underrepresented groups. That expansion of the scope, together with a rebranding and marketing campaign, led to a larger audience and engagement of the AMIA community.

During the 2-year maintenance treatment phase (MT) of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), personalized patient-specified titration of oral antimetabolite drug doses is required to ensure maximum tolerated systemic drug exposure. Drug titration is difficult to implement in practice and insufficient systemic drug exposure resulting from inadequate dose titration increases risk of ALL relapse.

Electronic health records (EHRs) provide opportunities for the development of computable predictive tools. Conventional machine learning methods and deep learning methods have been widely used for this task, with the approach of usually designing one tool for one clinical outcome. Here we developed PheW2P2V, a Phenome-Wide prediction framework using Weighted Patient Vectors. PheW2P2V conducts tailored predictions for phenome-wide phenotypes using numeric representations of patients' past medical records weighted based on [...]

This study uses electronic health record (EHR) data to predict 12 common cancer symptoms, assessing the efficacy of machine learning (ML) models in identifying symptom influencers.

This study aimed to investigate the predictive capabilities of historical patient records to predict patient adverse outcomes such as mortality, readmission, and prolonged length of stay (PLOS).

The aim of this study was to investigate GPT-3.5 in generating and coding medical documents with International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 codes for data augmentation on low-resource labels.
