Down syndrome (DS), or trisomy 21, is a common disorder associated with several complex clinical phenotypes. Although hypotheses have been put forward, it unclear as to whether particular gene loci on chromosome 21 (HSA21) are sufficient cause DS and its features. Here we present high-resolution genetic map of phenotypes based an analysis 30 subjects carrying rare segmental trisomies various regions HSA21. By using state-of-the-art genomics technologies mapped at exon-level resolution...

There is tremendous enthusiasm surrounding the potential for machine learning to improve medical prognosis and diagnosis. However, there are risks translating a model into clinical care end users often unaware of harm patients. This perspective presents "Model Facts" label, systematic effort ensure that front-line clinicians actually know how, when, how not, when not incorporate output decisions. The label was designed who make decisions supported by its purpose collate relevant, actionable...

<h3>Importance</h3> The ability to accurately predict in-hospital mortality for patients at the time of admission could improve clinical and operational decision-making outcomes. Few machine learning models that have been developed death are both broadly applicable all adult across a health system readily implementable. Similarly, few implemented, none evaluated prospectively externally validated. <h3>Objectives</h3> To validate model predicts hospital design using commonly available...

Despite enormous enthusiasm, machine learning models are rarely translated into clinical care and there is minimal evidence of or economic impact. New conference venues academic journals have emerged to promote the proliferating research; however, translational path remains unclear. This review undertakes first in-depth study identify how that ingest structured electronic health record data can be applied decision support tasks practice. The authors complement their own work with experience...

Determine if deep learning detects sepsis earlier and more accurately than other models. To evaluate model performance using implementation-oriented metrics that simulate clinical practice.We trained internally temporally validated a (multi-output Gaussian process recurrent neural network [MGP-RNN]) to detect encounters from adult hospitalized patients at large tertiary academic center. Sepsis was defined as the presence of 2 or systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria, blood...

Abstract Objectives Real‐world data on ustekinumab for the treatment of pediatric Crohn's disease (CD) are limited. This study sought to evaluate effectiveness, long‐term durability, and safety in children with CD. Methods A retrospective longitudinal cohort CD treated from two large centers between 2015 2020 was performed. The primary outcome frequency steroid‐free clinical remission at 1 year. Secondary outcomes included time remission, biochemical drug escalation discontinuation, serum...
