Newest firstWe present a data-driven framework to predict 15-year all-cause mortality using outpatient administrative records for 2.3 million Veterans in the largest integrated U.S. healthcare system. Rather than relying on predefined clinical phenotypes, we used the 1,000 most common outpatient medical codes from each of three data types/modalities - ICD-9 (Dx), Current Procedural Terminology (CPT), and prescription drugs (R…
Open article record in new tab ↗BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWAS) for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are limited due to the underdiagnosis of OSA, leading to misclassification of OSA, which consequently reduces statistical power. We performed a GWAS of OSA in the Million Veteran Program (MVP) of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system, where OSA prevalence is close to its true population prevalence. MethodsWe…
Open article record in new tab ↗The development of phenotypes using electronic health records is a resource intensive process. Therefore, the cataloging of phenotype algorithm metadata for reuse is critical to accelerate clinical research. The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Research and Development has developed a phenomics knowledgebase library, CIPHER (Centralized Interactive Phenomics Research), which improves upon existing phenomic…
Open article record in new tab ↗ImportanceDeaths among patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are partially attributed to venous thromboembolism and arterial thromboses. Anticoagulants prevent thrombosis formation, possess anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties, and may be particularly effective for treating patients with COVID-19.
