To determine whether natural language processing (NLP) of unstructured medical text can improve identification of ASCVD patients not using high-intensity statin therapy (HIST) due to statin-associated side effects (SASEs) and other reasons.

Reviewers annotated reasons for not prescribing HIST in notes of 1152 randomly selected patients from across the VA healthcare system treated for ASCVD but not receiving HIST. Developers used reviewer annotations to train the Canary NLP tool to detect and extract notes containing one or more of these reasons. Negative predictive value (NPV), sensitivity, specificity and Area Under the Curve (AUC) were used to assess accuracy at detecting documents containing reasons when using structured data, NLP-extracted unstructured data, or both data sources combined.

At least one documented reason for not prescribing HIST occurred in 47% of notes. The most frequent reasons were SASEs (41%) and general intolerance (20%). When identifying notes containing any documented reason for not using HIST, adding NLP-extracted, unstructured data significantly (
<0.05) increased sensitivity (0.69 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.60-0.76) to 0.89 (95% CI 0.81-0.93)), NPV (0.90 (95% CI 0.87 to 0.93) to 0.96 (95% CI 0.93-0.98)), and AUC (0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.81-0.88) to 0.91 (95% CI 0.90-0.93)) compared to structured data alone.

NLP extraction of data from unstructured text can improve identification of reasons for patients not being on HIST over structured data alone. The additional information provided through NLP of unstructured free text should help in tailoring and implementing system-level interventions to improve HIST use in patients with ASCVD.

Neurological injury and mortality remain high in comatose patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Hypotension and hypoxia during post-resuscitation care have been associated with poor outcome, but the optimal oxygenation- and blood pressure-targets are unknown. The impact of different doses of norepinephrine on advanced hemodynamic after OHCA and the impact of different oxygenation-targets on pulmonary circulation and resistance (PVR), are unknown. The aims of this substudy of the "Blood pressure and oxygenations targets after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (BOX)"-trial are to investigate the effect of two different MAP- and oxygenation-targets on advanced systemic and pulmonary hemodynamics measured by pulmonary artery catheters (PAC).

The BOX-trial is an investigator-initiated, randomized, controlled study comparing targeted MAP of 63mmHg vs 77mmHg (double-blinded intervention) and 9-10kPa versus PaO2 of 13-14kPa oxygenation-targets (open-label). Per protocol, all patients willof the MAP-intervention minimizes risk of selection bias and confounders. Furthermore, hemodynamic characteristics and associations with outcome will be investigated.

However, certain species (P. phosphoreum, P. carnosum, P. iliopiscarium) have been recently described to colonize and spoil raw meats without a marine link. We have studied 27 strains from meat as well as 26 strains from marine environments in order to probe for intraspecies marine/terrestrial subpopulations and identify distinct genomic features acquired by environmental adaptation. We have conducted phylogenetic analysis (MLSA, ANI, fur, codon usage), search of plasmids (plasmidSPADES), phages (PHASTER), CRISPR-cas operons (CRISPR-finder) and secondary metabolites gene clusters (antiSMASH, BAGEL), in addition to a targeted gene search for specific pathways (e.g. TCA cycle, pentose phosphate, respiratory chain) and elements relevant for growth, adaptation and competition (substrate utilization, motility, bioluminescence, sodium and iron transport). P. carnosum appears as a conserveution of several traits. The species shows traits common to the other two species, similar carbon utilization/transport gene conservation as P. carnosum for the meat-isolated strains, and predicted utilization of marine-common DMSO and flagellar cluster for the sea-isolated strains. Results additionally suggest that photobacteria are highly prone to horizontal acquisition/loss of genetic material and genetic transduction, and that it might be a strategy for increasing the frequency of strain- or species-specific features that offers a growth/competition advantage.With the HTEM, an open online database containing experimental synthesis and characterization data of thin film inorganic materials, Talley et al. (2021) lay a foundation for a new era of high-throughput materials design.Many computational models rely on real-world data, and the steps required in moving from data collection, to data preparation, to model calibration, and input are becoming increasingly complex. Errors in data can lead to errors in model output that might invalidate conclusions in extreme cases. While the challenge of errors in data collection have been analyzed in the literature, here we highlight the importance of data handling in the modeling and simulation process, and how particular data handling errors can lead to errors in model output. We develop a framework for assessing the impact of potential data errors for models of spreading processes on networks, a broad class of models that capture many important real-world phenomena (e.g., epidemics, rumor spread, etc.). We focus on the susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) and Threshold models and examine how systematic errors in data handling impact the predicted spread of a virus (or information). Our results demonstrate that data handling errors can have significant impact on model conclusions especially in critical regions of a system.Roaa Al Feel, an early-career researcher, discusses her passion for using data science for social good. She uses data to reflect living conditions of society, and in the paper published with Patterns in November, the team explores machine learning techniques for the detection of fake news around the Syrian war, demonstrating the efficacy of meta-learning techniques when tackling datasets of a modest size.The paper highlights how each step of a data science pipeline can be performed in a "responsible" way, taking into account privacy, ethics, and quality issues. Several examples from the Italian public sector contribute to clarifying how data collections and data analyses can be carried out under a responsible view.The continuous emergence of drug-target interaction data provides an opportunity to construct a biological network for systematically discovering unknown interactions. However, this is challenging due to complex and heterogeneous correlations between drug and target. Here, we describe a heterogeneous hypergraph-based framework for drug-target interaction (HHDTI) predictions by modeling biological networks through a hypergraph, where each vertex represents a drug or a target and a hyperedge indicates existing similar interactions or associations between the connected vertices. The hypergraph is then trained to generate suitably structured embeddings for discovering unknown interactions. Comprehensive experiments performed on four public datasets demonstrate that HHDTI achieves significant and consistently improved predictions compared with state-of-the-art methods. Our analysis indicates that this superior performance is due to the ability to integrate heterogeneous high-order information from the hypergraph learning. These results suggest that HHDTI is a scalable and practical tool for uncovering novel drug-target interactions.Using intersectionality as a methodology illuminated the shortcomings of the data science process when analyzing the viral #metoo movement and simultaneously allowed me to reflect on my role in that process. The key is to implement intersectionality to its fullest potential, to expose nuances and inequities, alter our approaches from the standard perfunctory tasks, reflect how we aid and abide by systems and structures of power, and begin to break the habit of recolonizing ourselves as data scientists.Currently, identifying novel biomarkers remains a crucial need for cancer immunotherapy. By leveraging single-cell cytometry data, Greene et al. developed an interpretable machine learning method, FAUST, to discover cell populations associated with clinical outcomes.Recent advances in biomedical machine learning demonstrate great potential for data-driven techniques in health care and biomedical research. However, this potential has thus far been hampered by both the scarcity of annotated data in the biomedical domain and the diversity of the domain's subfields. While unsupervised learning is capable of finding unknown patterns in the data by design, supervised learning requires human annotation to achieve the desired performance through training. With the latter performing vastly better than the former, the need for annotated datasets is high, but they are costly and laborious to obtain. This review explores a family of approaches existing between the supervised and the unsupervised problem setting. DL-Thiorphan chemical structure The goal of these algorithms is to make more efficient use of the available labeled data. The advantages and limitations of each approach are addressed and perspectives are provided.Individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds are increasingly engaging in research and development in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). The main activities, although still nascent, are coalescing around three core activities innovation, policy, and capacity building. Within agriculture, which is the focus of this paper, AI is working with converging technologies, particularly data optimization, to add value along the entire agricultural value chain, including procurement, farm automation, and market access. Our key takeaway is that, despite the promising opportunities for development, there are actual and potential challenges that African countries need to consider in deciding whether to scale up or down the application of AI in agriculture. Input from African innovators, policymakers, and academics is essential to ensure that AI solutions are aligned with African needs and priorities. This paper proposes questions that can be used to form a road map to inform research and development in this area.Network modeling transforms data into a structure of nodes and edges such that edges represent relationships between pairs of objects, then extracts clusters of densely connected nodes in order to capture high-dimensional relationships hidden in the data. This efficient and flexible strategy holds potential for unveiling complex patterns concealed within massive datasets, but standard implementations overlook several key issues that can undermine research efforts. These issues range from data imputation and discretization to correlation metrics, clustering methods, and validation of results. Here, we enumerate these pitfalls and provide practical strategies for alleviating their negative effects. These guidelines increase prospects for future research endeavors as they reduce type I and type II (false-positive and false-negative) errors and are generally applicable for network modeling applications across diverse domains.
