Abstract Objective The goal of this study is to develop a robust Time Event Ontology (TEO), which can formally represent and reason both structured unstructured temporal information. Materials Methods Using our previous Clinical Narrative Temporal Relation 1.0 2.0 as starting point, we redesigned concept primitives (clinical events expressions) enriched relations. Specifically, 2 sets relations (Allen’s interval algebra novel suite basic time relations) were used specify qualitative order...
Pansclerotic morphea (PSM) is a rare, devastating disease characterized by extensive soft tissue fibrosis, secondary contractions, and significant morbidity. PSM pathogenesis unknown, aggressive immunosuppressive treatments rarely slow progression. We aimed to characterize molecular mechanisms driving identify therapeutically targetable pathways performing single-cell spatial RNA-sequencing on lesional non-lesional skin biopsies of patient 12-months apart 6 healthy controls. then validated...
Latin American patients in the United States experience significant health disparities. Community workers (promotoras de salud) reduce disparities by providing culturally appropriate education. While educational interventions have been studied atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic dermatologic condition affecting children, none evaluated use of promotoras Spanish-speaking pediatric States.To create and evaluate promotora-led education program for caregivers American, with AD through randomized,...
Importance Autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and psoriasis have been previously associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Whether similar ASCVD is seen cutaneous (CLE) remains unclear. Objective To evaluate the incidence prevalence among those CLE, SLE, compared a disease-free control group. Design, Setting, Participants This retrospective, matched longitudinal cohort study used data from January 2018 to December 2020 in...
<h3>Background</h3> Autoimmune disease such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and psoriasis have been previously associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular (ASCVD), though whether similar ASCVD is seen cutaneous (CLE) remains unclear. Thus, we sought to evaluate the prevalence incidence among those CLE, SLE, compared disease-free controls. <h3>Methods</h3> We performed a retrospective, longitudinal cohort study using outpatient inpatient encounters claims data...
Background: Today, there is an increasing need to centralize and standardize electronic health data within clinical research as the volume of continues balloon. Domain-specific common elements (CDEs) are emerging a standard approach capturing reporting. Recent efforts study CDEs have been great benefit in facilitating integration sharing. The importance temporal dimension studies has well recognized; however, very few focused on formal representation constraints relationships biomedical...
Abstract Background Morphea is an autoimmune, sclerosing skin disorder. Despite the recent emphasis on immune dysregulation in morphea, role of autoantibodies morphea pathogenesis or utility as biomarkers are poorly defined. Methods Autoantigen microarray was used to profile from serum participants Adults and Children (MAC) cohort. Clinical demographic features patients with myelin basic protein (MBP) were compared those without. MBP immunohistochemistry staining subsequently performed...
Concerns have been raised about the use of radiotherapy (RT) by dermatologists. Little is known temporal trends in payment for RT among dermatologists.To characterize changes and dermatologists treating patients enrolled Medicare.A cross-sectional, population-based retrospective analysis submitting Medicare claims was conducted. Dermatologists identified 2013-2017 Physician Other Supplier Public Use File, which includes information on fee-for-service payments service physicians caring...
Abstract Introduction Community health workers (CHWs), or promotora de salud , have an important role in healthcare education and advocacy the Latin American community. We aimed to determine impact of a program on attitudes beliefs regarding AD management among caregivers pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis. Methods This is sub‐study ongoing randomized, investigator‐blinded, placebo‐controlled trial. Mann‐Whitney U tests compared questionnaire responses standard group group. Results...
In many fields of medicine, guidelines recommend reduced cancer screening in patients advanced age with limited life expectancy (LLE). dermatology, there are currently no for adjusted evaluation and management practices keratinocyte (KC) LLE. Little is known regarding patterns frequency biopsies these patients.We sought to determine if dermatology providers biopsy LLE similar their age-matched peers quantify associated complications.This was a retrospective cohort study evaluations skin...
