Building bridges across electronic health record systems through inferred phenotypic topics.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Data in electronic health records (EHRs) is being increasingly leveraged for secondary uses, ranging from biomedical association studies to comparative effectiveness. To perform studies at scale and transfer knowledge from one institution ...

A comparison of various artificial intelligence approaches performance for estimating suspended sediment load of river systems: a case study in United States.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Accurate and reliable suspended sediment load (SSL) prediction models are necessary for planning and management of water resource structures. More recently, soft computing techniques have been used in hydrological and environmental modeling. The pres...

Robotic-assisted pelvic lymph node dissection for prostate cancer: frequency of nodal metastases and oncological outcomes.

World journal of urology
PURPOSE: Limited data are available regarding the oncologic efficacy of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) performed during robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) for prostate cancer. We aimed to determine the frequency of pelvic lymph n...

Evaluation of PHI Hunter in Natural Language Processing Research.

Perspectives in health information management
OBJECTIVES: We introduce and evaluate a new, easily accessible tool using a common statistical analysis and business analytics software suite, SAS, which can be programmed to remove specific protected health information (PHI) from a text document. Re...

African-American Men with Low-Risk Prostate Cancer: Modern Treatment and Outcome Trends.

Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment patterns for African-American (AA) men with low-risk prostate cancer (PCa) using a national, population-based dataset.

Secondary use of electronic health records for building cohort studies through top-down information extraction.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Controlled clinical trials are usually supported with an in-front data aggregation system, which supports the storage of relevant information according to the trial context within a highly structured environment. In contrast to the documentation of c...

The use of natural language processing of infusion notes to identify outpatient infusions.

Pharmacoepidemiology and drug safety
PURPOSE: Outpatient infusions are commonly missing in Veterans Health Affairs (VHA) pharmacy dispensing data sets. Currently, Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) codes are used to identify outpatient infusions, but concerns exist if the...

Comparison of postural ergonomics between laparoscopic and robotic sacrocolpopexy: a pilot study.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare resident, fellow, and attending urologic and gynecologic surgeons' musculoskeletal and mental strain during laparoscopic and robotic sacrocolpopexy.

In-hospital mortality and morbidity after robotic coronary artery surgery.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to assess the impact of robotic approaches on outcomes of coronary bypass surgery.

Chronic Pain Prevalence, Opioid Use, and Primary Care Provider Opioid Prescription Patterns in the U.S. from 2017 to 2019 Derived from Medicaid Claims Data.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP) is a major health concern in the United States, incurring substantial healthcare costs and frequently requiring opioid therapy in primary care. This retrospective cross-sectional study used Medicaid claims data from six...
