BACKGROUND: Self-harm occurring within pregnancy and the postnatal year ("perinatal self-harm") is a clinically important yet under-researched topic. Current research likely under-estimates prevalence due to methodological limitations. Electronic hea...
Background Patterns of metastasis in cancer are increasingly relevant to prognostication and treatment planning but have historically been documented by means of autopsy series. Purpose To show the feasibility of using natural language processing (NL...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence approaches can integrate complex features and can be used to predict a patient's risk of developing lung cancer, thereby decreasing the need for unnecessary and expensive diagnostic interventions.
RATIONALE: Clinical decision support (CDS) tools leveraging electronic health records (EHRs) have been an approach for addressing challenges in asthma care but remain under-studied through clinical trials.
