Assessing Hospital Performance After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Big Data.

Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes
BACKGROUND: Although risk adjustment remains a cornerstone for comparing outcomes across hospitals, optimal strategies continue to evolve in the presence of many confounders. We compared conventional regression-based model to approaches particularly ...

Early Detection of Heart Failure Using Electronic Health Records: Practical Implications for Time Before Diagnosis, Data Diversity, Data Quantity, and Data Density.

Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes
BACKGROUND: Using electronic health records data to predict events and onset of diseases is increasingly common. Relatively little is known, although, about the tradeoffs between data requirements and model utility.

Analysis of Machine Learning Techniques for Heart Failure Readmissions.

Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes
BACKGROUND: The current ability to predict readmissions in patients with heart failure is modest at best. It is unclear whether machine learning techniques that address higher dimensional, nonlinear relationships among variables would enhance predict...

Identifying Drug-Drug Interactions by Data Mining: A Pilot Study of Warfarin-Associated Drug Interactions.

Circulation. Cardiovascular quality and outcomes
BACKGROUND: Knowledge about drug-drug interactions commonly arises from preclinical trials, from adverse drug reports, or based on knowledge of mechanisms of action. Our aim was to investigate whether drug-drug interactions were discoverable without ...

Incidence of severe renal dysfunction among individuals taking warfarin and implications for non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to assess incidence and risk factors for severe renal dysfunction in patients requiring oral anticoagulation to help guide initial drug choice and provide a rational basis for interval monitoring of renal func...

Why so GLUMM? Detecting depression clusters through graphing lifestyle-environs using machine-learning methods (GLUMM).

European psychiatry : the journal of the Association of European Psychiatrists
BACKGROUND: Key lifestyle-environ risk factors are operative for depression, but it is unclear how risk factors cluster. Machine-learning (ML) algorithms exist that learn, extract, identify and map underlying patterns to identify groupings of depress...

A machine learning-based framework to identify type 2 diabetes through electronic health records.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: To discover diverse genotype-phenotype associations affiliated with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) via genome-wide association study (GWAS) and phenome-wide association study (PheWAS), more cases (T2DM subjects) and controls (subjects wit...

How can machine-learning methods assist in virtual screening for hyperuricemia? A healthcare machine-learning approach.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECT: Our purpose was to develop a new machine-learning approach (a virtual health check-up) toward identification of those at high risk of hyperuricemia. Applying the system to general health check-ups is expected to reduce medical costs compared ...

Glaucoma detection using entropy sampling and ensemble learning for automatic optic cup and disc segmentation.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
We present a novel method to segment retinal images using ensemble learning based convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures. An entropy sampling technique is used to select informative points thus reducing computational complexity while perfor...

Network or regression-based methods for disease discrimination: a comparison study.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: In stark contrast to network-centric view for complex disease, regression-based methods are preferred in disease prediction, especially for epidemiologists and clinical professionals. It remains a controversy whether the network-based met...
