Article Synopsis
- Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is significant both medically and economically, often necessitating treatment with biologic drugs for moderate to severe cases; this study aimed to use machine learning (ML) techniques to predict such treatment based on a large database.
- The research analyzed a cohort of 122,089 patients who received prescriptions for anti-inflammatory agents, identifying 15,824 patients who were prescribed biologics, and utilized various ML models to determine predictors for treatment, with the Light Gradient Boosting Machine showing the highest accuracy at 74%.
- The study highlights the potential of ML models in predicting biologic therapy based on demographic and pre-treatment variables, emphasizing the need for future research that includes individual patient factors like genetics and gut microbi
People with speech, hearing, or mental impairment require special communication assistance, especially for medical purposes. Automatic solutions for speech recognition and voice synthesis from text are poor fits for communication in the medical domain because they are dependent on error-prone statistical models. Systems dependent on manual text input are insufficient.
