Abstract

BACKGROUND: Safety signals for potential drug-induced adverse events (AEs) typically emerge from multiple data sources, primarily spontaneous reporting systems, despite known limitations. Increasingly, real-world data from sources such as electronic health records (EHRs) and administrative databases are leveraged for signal detection. Although network analysis has shown promise in mapping relationships between clinical attributes for signal detection in spontaneous reporting system databases, its application in real-world data from EHRs and administrative databases remains limited.
