Here, we propose a few-shot prompt learning-based approach to classify sentences in medical abstracts of randomized clinical trials (RCT) and observational studies (OS) to subsections of Introduction, Background, Methods, Results, and Conclusion, using an existing corpus of RCT (PubMed 200k/20k RCT) and a newly built corpus of OS (PubMed 20k OS). Five manually designed templates in a combination of 4 BERT model variants were tested and compared to a previous hierarchical sequential labeling network architecture and traditional BERT-based sentence classification method. On the PubMed 200k and 20k RCT datasets, we achieved overall F1 scores of 0.9508 and 0.9401, respectively. Under few-shot settings, we demonstrated that only 20% of training data is sufficient to achieve a comparable F1 score by the HSLN model (0.9266 by us and 0.9263 by HSLN). When trained on the RCT dataset, our method achieved a 0.9065 F1 score on the OS dataset. When trained on the OS dataset, our method achieved a 0.9203 F1 score on the RCT dataset. We show that the prompt learning-based method outperformed the existing method, even when fewer training samples were used. Moreover, the proposed method shows better generalizability across two types of medical publications when compared with the existing approach.

While the evidence bases to support them are growing, there is still a gap in understanding their effects and potential adverse events using real-world data. The overall goal of this study is to represent information pertinent to both psychological and physical CIH approaches (specifically, using examples of music therapy, chiropractic, and aquatic exercise in this study) in an electronic health record (EHR) system. We also aim to evaluate the ability of existing natural language processing (NLP) systems to identify CIH approaches. A total of 300 notes were randomly selected and manually annotated. Annotations were made for status, symptom, and frequency of each approach. This set of annotations was used as a gold standard to evaluate the performance of NLP systems used in this study (specifically BioMedICUS, MetaMap, and cTAKES) for extracting CIH concepts. Venn diagram was used to investigate the consistency of medical records searching by Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes and CIH approaches keywords in SQL. Since CPT codes usually do not have specific mentions of CIH approaches, the Venn diagram had less overlap with those found in clinical notes for all three CIH therapies. The three NLP systems achieved 0.41 in average lenient match F1-score in all three CIH approaches, respectively. BioMedICUS achieved the best performance in aquatic exercise with an F1-score of 0.66. This study contributes to the overall representation of CIH in clinical note and lays a foundation for using EHR for clinical research for CIH approaches.","PeriodicalId":36444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research","volume":"7 3","pages":"277-290"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10449701/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10107370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Application in medicine, however, can be challenging due to privacy concerns and strict legal regulations. Methods that centralize knowledge instead of data could address this issue. In this work, 6 different decentralized machine learning algorithms are applied to 12-lead ECG classification and compared to conventional, centralized machine learning. The results show that state-of-the-art federated learning leads to reasonable losses of classification performance compared to a standard, central model (-0.054 AUROC) while providing a significantly higher level of privacy. A proposed weighted variant of federated learning (-0.049 AUROC) and an ensemble (-0.035 AUROC) outperformed the standard federated learning algorithm. Overall, considering multiple metrics, the novel batch-wise sequential learning scheme performed best (-0.036 AUROC to baseline). Although, the technical aspects of implementing them in a real-world application are to be carefully considered, the described algorithms constitute a way forward towards preserving-preserving AI in medicine.","PeriodicalId":36444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research","volume":"7 3","pages":"291-312"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10449753/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10109772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A challenge when working with temporal EHR data is problem formulation, which includes defining the time windows of interest and the prediction task. Our objective was to conduct a systematic review that assessed the definition and reporting of concepts relevant to temporal clinical prediction tasks. We searched PubMed® and IEEE Xplore® databases for studies from January 1, 2010 applying machine learning models to EHR data for patient outcome prediction. Publications applying time-series methods were selected for further review. We identified 92 studies and summarized them by clinical context and definition and reporting of the prediction problem. For the time windows of interest, 12 studies did not discuss window lengths, 57 used a single set of window lengths, and 23 evaluated the relationship between window length and model performance. We also found that 72 studies had appropriate reporting of the prediction task. However, evaluation of prediction problem formulation for temporal EHR data was complicated by heterogeneity in assessing and reporting of these concepts. Even among studies modeling similar clinical outcomes, there were variations in terminology used to describe the prediction problem, rationale for window lengths, and determination of the outcome of interest. As temporal modeling using EHR data expands, minimal reporting standards should include time-series specific concerns to promote rigor and reproducibility in future studies and facilitate model implementation in clinical settings.Supplementary information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s41666-023-00143-4.","PeriodicalId":36444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research","volume":"7 3","pages":"313-331"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2023-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10449760/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10109771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Survival analysis is a common method used to predict the occurrence time of events of interest in the medical field. At present, the mainstream survival analysis models, such as the Cox proportional risk model, should make strict assumptions about the potential random process to solve the censored data, thus potentially limiting their application in clinical practice. In this paper, we propose a novel deep multitask survival model (DMSM) to analyze HCC survival data. Specifically, DMSM transforms the traditional survival time prediction problem of patients with HCC into a survival probability prediction problem at multiple time points and applies entropy regularization and ranking loss to optimize a multitask neural network. Compared with the traditional methods of deleting censored data and strong hypothesis, DMSM makes full use of all the information in the censored data but does not need to make any assumption. In addition, we identify the risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with HCC and visualize the importance of ranking these factors. On the basis of the analysis of a real dataset of patients with BCLC stage B HCC, experimental results on three different validation datasets show that the DMSM achieves competitive performance with concordance index of 0.779, 0.727, and 0.780 and integrated Brier score (IBS) of 0.172, 0.138, and 0.135, respectively. Our DMSM has a comparatively small standard deviation (0.002, 0.002, and 0.003) for IBS of bootstrapping 100 times. The DMSM we proposed can be utilized as an effective survival analysis model and provide an important means for the accurate prediction of postoperative survival time of patients with BCLC stage B HCC.","PeriodicalId":36444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Healthcare Informatics Research","volume":"7 3","pages":"332-358"},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2023-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10449707/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10109774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
