Non-coding genetic variants underlying higher prostate cancer risk in men of African ancestry.

Nature communications
Prostate cancer (PrCa) incidence and severity vary across ancestries; men of African ancestry (AA) are more likely to be diagnosed and die from PrCa than those of European ancestry (EA). Current polygenic risk scores, even from multi-ancestry GWAS, d...

Machine learning models incorporating genotype and ancestry improve severe asthma risk prediction.

Scientific reports
This study proposes a novel machine learning (ML)-based stacking technique that integrates Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and inferred local ancestry (LA) to improve predictive accuracy in clinical outcomes. Asthma, particularly severe asthma...

Clinical characteristics and CKD care delivery in African American and American Indian or Alaska Native patients: A real-world cohort study.

BMC nephrology
BACKGROUND: Racially minoritized populations in the United States (US), notably African American (AA) and American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN), experience disproportionately higher rates of chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes, and hypertension co...

Detecting Conversation Topics in Recruitment Calls of African American Participants to the All of Us Research Program Using Machine Learning: Model Development and Validation Study.

JMIR formative research
BACKGROUND: Advancements in science and technology can exacerbate health disparities, particularly when there is a lack of diversity in clinical research, which limits the benefits of innovations for underrepresented communities. Programs like the Al...

Screening of Glaucoma in High-Risk Minority Populations.

Journal of glaucoma
PRECIS: This chapter reviews the current recommendations on screening for open angle glaucoma in Black and Hispanic populations. Strategies for increasing case-finding and decreasing cost, with emphasis on evolving technologies, are presented.

Perspectives of Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and Asian Communities on Health Data Use and AI: Cross-Sectional Survey Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
Despite excitement around artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools in health care, there is work to be done before they can be equitably deployed. The absence of diverse patient voices in discussions on AI is a pressing matter, and current studies ha...

Predicting mental health disparities using machine learning for African Americans in Southeastern Virginia.

Scientific reports
This study examined mental health disparities among African Americans using AI and machine learning for outcome prediction. Analyzing data from African American adults (18-85) in Southeastern Virginia (2016-2020), we found Mood Affective Disorders we...

A Comparison of Prostate Cancer Screening Information Quality on Standard and Advanced Versions of ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot: A Cross-Sectional Study.

American journal of health promotion : AJHP
PurposeArtificially Intelligent (AI) chatbots have the potential to produce information to support shared prostate cancer (PrCA) decision-making. Therefore, our purpose was to evaluate and compare the accuracy, completeness, readability, and credibil...

Designing a Multimodal and Culturally Relevant Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementia Generative Artificial Intelligence Tool for Black American Informal Caregivers: Cognitive Walk-Through Usability Study.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: Many members of Black American communities, faced with the high prevalence of Alzheimer disease and related dementias (ADRD) within their demographic, find themselves taking on the role of informal caregivers. Despite being the primary in...

Clinical and Multiomic Features Differentiate Young Black and White Breast Cancer Cohorts Derived by Machine Learning Approaches.

Clinical breast cancer
BACKGROUND: There are documented differences in Breast cancer (BrCA) presentations and outcomes between Black and White patients. In addition to molecular factors, socioeconomic, racial, and clinical factors result in disparities in outcomes for wome...
