This study utilized the federated TriNetX network to evaluate the incidence of cardiac, renal, and vascular complications in adults diagnosed with IgAV. After propensity score matching, 12,506 patients with IgAV and 12,506 controls were analyzed. Over 6-month, 1-year, and 3-year periods, patients with IgAV had significantly higher risks of myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, stroke, pulmonary embolism, venous thromboembolism, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease compared to controls. Chronic kidney disease was the most common complication, with a 3-year risk of 8.6% and the highest absolute and relative risk difference. These findings suggest that adults with IgAV may be at increased risk for serious renal and cardiovascular complications, underscoring the need for further study to determine best practices for long term monitoring and management to mitigate morbidity associated with the disease.</p>","PeriodicalId":72181,"journal":{"name":"AMIA Joint Summits on Translational Science proceedings.

Before data can be distributed, practitioners often perform deidentification to remove any PHI contained in the text. Contemporary deidentification methods are evaluated on highly saturated datasets (tools achieve near-perfect accuracy) which may not reflect the full variability or complexity of real-world clinical text and annotating them is resource intensive, which is a barrier to real-world applications. To address this gap, we developed an adversarial approach using a large language model (LLM) to re-identify the patient corresponding to a redacted clinical note and evaluated the performance with a novel De-Identification/Re-Identification (DIRI) method. Our method uses a large language model to reidentify the patient corresponding to a redacted clinical note. We demonstrate our method on medical data from Weill Cornell Medicine anonymized with three deidentification tools: rule-based Philter and two deep-learning-based models, BiLSTM-CRF and ClinicalBERT.

However, privacy regulations such as HIPAA and GDPR pose significant challenges. While de-identification techniques aim to remove protected health information, they often fall short of achieving complete privacy protection. Similarly, the current state of synthetic clinical note generation can lack nuance and content coverage. To address these limitations, we propose an approach that combines de-identification, filtration, and synthetic clinical note generation. Variations of this approach currently retain 36%-61% of the original note's content and fill the remaining gaps using an LLM, ensuring high information coverage. We also evaluated the de-identification performance of the hybrid notes, demonstrating that they surpass or at least match the standalone de-identification methods. Our results show that hybrid notes can maintain patient privacy while preserving the richness of clinical data.

Biomedical knowledge graphs (KGs) can aid in identifying potential mechanisms to support such research efforts. We evaluated the ability of several KG embedding methods to improve NPDI prediction on NP-KG, a large-scale, heterogeneous, biomedical KG.
