Automated Extraction of Stroke Severity From Unstructured Electronic Health Records Using Natural Language Processing.

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: Multicenter electronic health records can support quality improvement and comparative effectiveness research in stroke. However, limitations of electronic health record-based research include challenges in abstracting key clinical variabl...

A neural network solves, explains, and generates university math problems by program synthesis and few-shot learning at human level.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
We demonstrate that a neural network pretrained on text and fine-tuned on code solves mathematics course problems, explains solutions, and generates questions at a human level. We automatically synthesize programs using few-shot learning and OpenAI's...

Development and Validation of a Deep Learning Model for Earlier Detection of Cognitive Decline From Clinical Notes in Electronic Health Records.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Detecting cognitive decline earlier among older adults can facilitate enrollment in clinical trials and early interventions. Clinical notes in longitudinal electronic health records (EHRs) provide opportunities to detect cognitive decline...

Digital triage: Novel strategies for population health management in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Healthcare (Amsterdam, Netherlands)
The COVID-19 pandemic has created unique challenges for the U.S. healthcare system due to the staggering mismatch between healthcare system capacity and patient demand. The healthcare industry has been a relatively slow adopter of digital innovation ...

Screening pregnant women for suicidal behavior in electronic medical records: diagnostic codes vs. clinical notes processed by natural language processing.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: We examined the comparative performance of structured, diagnostic codes vs. natural language processing (NLP) of unstructured text for screening suicidal behavior among pregnant women in electronic medical records (EMRs).

A spatio-temporal prediction model based on support vector machine regression: Ambient Black Carbon in three New England States.

Environmental research
Fine ambient particulate matter has been widely associated with multiple health effects. Mitigation hinges on understanding which sources are contributing to its toxicity. Black Carbon (BC), an indicator of particles generated from traffic sources, h...

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 ...

Predicting early psychiatric readmission with natural language processing of narrative discharge summaries.

Translational psychiatry
The ability to predict psychiatric readmission would facilitate the development of interventions to reduce this risk, a major driver of psychiatric health-care costs. The symptoms or characteristics of illness course necessary to develop reliable pre...

Early Experience of Robot-Assisted Esophagectomy With Circular End-to-End Stapled Anastomosis.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: Surgical resection is a critical element in the treatment of esophageal cancer. Esophagectomy is technically challenging and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Efforts to reduce these rates have spurred the adoption of...
