Prediction of Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) has been an important aspect of Pharmacovigilance because of its impact in the pharma industry. The standard process of introduction of a new drug into a market involves a lot of clinical trials and tests. ...
BACKGROUND: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an adverse reaction caused by the intake of drugs of common use that produces liver damage. The impact of DILI is estimated to affect around 20 in 100,000 inhabitants worldwide each year. Despite being ...
Identifying new drug targets and developing safe and effective drugs is both challenging and risky. Furthermore, characterizing drug development risk, the probability that a drug will eventually receive regulatory approval, has been notoriously hard ...
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are pharmacological events triggered by drug interactions with various sources of origin including drug-drug interactions. While there are many computational studies that explore models to predict ADRs originating from s...
A variety of deep learning architectures have been developed for the goal of predictive modelling and knowledge extraction from medical records. Several models have placed strong emphasis on temporal attention mechanisms and decay factors as a means ...
A central issue in drug risk-benefit assessment is identifying frequencies of side effects in humans. Currently, frequencies are experimentally determined in randomised controlled clinical trials. We present a machine learning framework for computati...
Various types of drug toxicity can halt the development of a drug. Because drugs are xenobiotics, they inherently have the potential to cause injury. Clarifying the mechanisms of toxicity to evaluate and manage drug safety during drug development is ...
Adverse drug events (ADEs) are unintended incidents that involve the taking of a medication. ADEs pose significant health and financial problems worldwide. Information about ADEs can inform health care and improve patient safety. However, much of thi...
Artificial neural networks are the main tools for data mining and were inspired by the human brain and nervous system. Studies have demonstrated their usefulness in medicine. However, no studies have used artificial neural networks for the prediction...
