Abstract Predictive modeling with electronic health record (EHR) data is anticipated to drive personalized medicine and improve healthcare quality. Constructing predictive statistical models typically requires extraction of curated predictor variables from normalized EHR data, a labor-intensive process that discards the vast majority information in each patient’s record. We propose representation patients’ entire raw records based on Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) format....

As of April 3, 2020, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) had caused 972 303 cases disease 2019 (COVID-19) and 50 322 deaths worldwide. 1Early reports from China suggested that coinfection with other pathogens was rare. If this were the case, patients positive for might be assumed unlikely to have SARS-CoV-2.The Centers Disease Control Prevention endorsed testing pathogens, suggesting evidence another infection could aid evaluation potential COVID-19 in absence widely...

SARS-CoV-2-specific antibodies, particularly those preventing viral spike receptor binding domain (RBD) interaction with host angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, can neutralize the virus. It is, however, unknown which features of serological response may affect clinical outcomes COVID-19 patients. We analyzed 983 longitudinal plasma samples from 79 hospitalized patients and 175 SARS-CoV-2-infected outpatients asymptomatic individuals. Within this cohort, 25 died their illness....

Background and Aims Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been associated with adverse clinical outcomes amongst clopidogrel users after an acute coronary syndrome. Recent pre-clinical results suggest that this risk might extend to subjects without any prior history of cardiovascular disease. We explore potential in the general population via data-mining approaches. Methods Using a novel approach for mining data pharmacovigilance, we queried over 16 million documents on 2.9 individuals examine...

Access to palliative care is a key quality metric which most healthcare organizations strive improve. The primary challenges increasing access are combination of physicians over-estimating patient prognoses, and shortage staff in general. This, with treatment inertia can result mismatch between wishes, their actual towards the end life. In this work, we address problem, Institutional Review Board approval, using machine learning Electronic Health Record (EHR) data patients. We train Deep...

Signal-detection algorithms (SDAs) are recognized as vital tools in pharmacovigilance. However, their performance characteristics generally unknown. By leveraging a unique gold standard recently made public by the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) and conducting systematic evaluation, we provide new insights into diagnostic potential of SDAs that routinely applied to US Food Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (AERS). We find can attain reasonable...

Background— Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are gastric acid–suppressing agents widely prescribed for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. Recently, several studies in patients with acute coronary syndrome have raised concern that use PPIs these may increase their risk major adverse cardiovascular events. The mechanism this possible effect is not known. Whether general population might also be at has been addressed. Methods and Results— Plasma asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA)...
