Data-driven knowledge acquisition, validation, and transformation into HL7 Arden Syntax.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to help a team of physicians and knowledge engineers acquire clinical knowledge from existing practices datasets for treatment of head and neck cancer, to validate the knowledge against published guidelines, ...

Pediatric decision support using adapted Arden Syntax.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND: Pediatric guidelines based care is often overlooked because of the constraints of a typical office visit and the sheer number of guidelines that may exist for a patient's visit. In response to this problem, in 2004 we developed a pediatri...

Automatic evidence quality prediction to support evidence-based decision making.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND: Evidence-based medicine practice requires practitioners to obtain the best available medical evidence, and appraise the quality of the evidence when making clinical decisions. Primarily due to the plethora of electronically available data...

Robotic-assisted Abdominal Cerclage Placement During Pregnancy and Its Challenges.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate a surgical video of 2 cases, in which the steps of robotic-assisted abdominal cerclage placement were delineated in one and a uterine vessel injury was repaired in the other.

Pharmacogenomic knowledge representation, reasoning and genome-based clinical decision support based on OWL 2 DL ontologies.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Every year, hundreds of thousands of patients experience treatment failure or adverse drug reactions (ADRs), many of which could be prevented by pharmacogenomic testing. However, the primary knowledge needed for clinical pharmacogenomics ...

Exploiting Semantic Web Technologies to Develop OWL-Based Clinical Practice Guideline Execution Engines.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Computerizing paper-based CPG and then executing them can provide evidence-informed decision support to physicians at the point of care. Semantic web technologies especially web ontology language (OWL) ontologies have been profusely used to represent...

A Computational Framework for Tailored Preventive Care Recommendations Using Electronic Health Records.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Most healthcare systems worldwide are designed to be reactive. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 90% of the nation's $3.3 trillion annual healthcare expenditures are attributed to individuals with chronic and men...

From Guidelines to Intelligence: How AI Refines Thyroid Nodule Biopsy Decisions.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of combining American College of Radiology (ACR) Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) with the Demetics ultrasound diagnostic system in reducing the rate of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies for thy...

National Guidelines for Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) in Peritoneal Malignancies: A Worldwide Systematic Review and Recommendations of Strength Analysis.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: National guidelines (GLs) for surgical cytoreduction (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in the management of peritoneal malignancies (PMs) vary across countries, scientific societies, and government agencies. This...

Optimization of guidelines for Risk Of Recurrence/Prosigna testing using a machine learning model: a Swedish multicenter study.

Breast (Edinburgh, Scotland)
PURPOSE: Gene expression profiles are used for decision making in the adjuvant setting in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer. While algorithms to optimize testing exist for RS/Oncotype Dx, no such efforts have focused ...
