Automated Extraction of VTE Events From Narrative Radiology Reports in Electronic Health Records: A Validation Study.

Medical care
BACKGROUND: Surveillance of venous thromboembolisms (VTEs) is necessary for improving patient safety in acute care hospitals, but current detection methods are inaccurate and inefficient. With the growing availability of clinical narratives in an ele...

Prediction of Anti-VEGF Treatment Requirements in Neovascular AMD Using a Machine Learning Approach.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to predict low and high anti-VEGF injection requirements during a pro re nata (PRN) treatment, based on sets of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images acquired during the initiation phase in neovascular AMD.

Community-Acquired Pneumonia Case Validation in an Anonymized Electronic Medical Record-Linked Expert System.

Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America
An electronic anonymized patient portal analysis using radiographic reports and admission and discharge diagnoses had sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of 84.7%, 78.2%, 75%, and 87%, respectively, for ...

Machine Learning of the Progression of Intermediate Age-Related Macular Degeneration Based on OCT Imaging.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science
PURPOSE: To develop a data-driven interpretable predictive model of incoming drusen regression as a sign of disease activity and identify optical coherence tomography (OCT) biomarkers associated with its risk in intermediate age-related macular degen...

Machine-Learning Algorithms Predict Graft Failure After Liver Transplantation.

Transplantation
BACKGROUND: The ability to predict graft failure or primary nonfunction at liver transplant decision time assists utilization of scarce resource of donor livers, while ensuring that patients who are urgently requiring a liver transplant are prioritiz...

Prediction of 30-Day All-Cause Readmissions in Patients Hospitalized for Heart Failure: Comparison of Machine Learning and Other Statistical Approaches.

JAMA cardiology
IMPORTANCE: Several attempts have been made at developing models to predict 30-day readmissions in patients with heart failure, but none have sufficient discriminatory capacity for clinical use. Machine-learning (ML) algorithms represent a novel appr...

A simplified chart for determining the initial loading dose of teicoplanin in critically ill patients.

Die Pharmazie
AIM OF THE STUDY: A simplified chart to determine the initial loading dose of teicoplanin (TEIC chart) for achieving the target trough concentration was developed. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of this chart in criticall...

NT-proBNP Predicts All-Cause Mortality in a Population of Insurance Applicants, Follow-up Analysis and Further Observations.

Journal of insurance medicine (New York, N.Y.)
OBJECTIVE: - Further refine the independent value of NT-proBNP, accounting for the impact of other test results, in predicting all-cause mortality for individual life insurance applicants with and without heart disease.

A Performance Comparison on the Machine Learning Classifiers in Predictive Pathology Staging of Prostate Cancer.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This study objectives to investigate a range of Partin table and several machine learning methods for pathological stage prediction and assess them with respect to their predictive model performance based on Koreans data. The data was used SPCDB and ...
