Abstract Objectives To assess fairness and bias of a previously validated machine learning opioid misuse classifier.

A local surrogate model estimated to...
Background Unhealthy alcohol use (UAU) is known to disrupt pulmonary immune mechanisms and increase the risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome in patients with pneumonia; however, little about effects UAU on outcomes COVID-19 pneumonia. To our knowledge, this first observational cross-sectional study that aims understand effect severity COVID-19. Objective We aim determine if associated more severe clinical presentation worse health related socioeconomic status, smoking, age, BMI,...
