Enhancing clinical data retrieval with Smart Watchers: a NiFi-based ETL pipeline for Elasticsearch queries.

Background: The aim is to develop and deploy an automated clinical alert system to enhance patient care and streamline healthcare operations. Structured and unstructured data from multiple sources are used to generate near real-time alerts for specific clinical scenarios, with an additional goal to improve clinical decision-making through accuracy and reliability.

Methods: The automated clinical alert system, named Smart Watchers, was developed using Apache NiFi and Python scripts to create flexible data processing pipelines and customisable clinical alerts.

Characterisation of five factor XI mutations.

A large scale factor XI (FXI) mutation screening program identified a number of novel candidate mutations and previously reported mutations and polymorphisms. Five potential missense mutations were selected for further study; these included two novel missense mutations - Met-18Ile (p.Met1Ile) and Met102Thr (p.

Spectrum of factor XI (F11) mutations in the UK population--116 index cases and 140 mutations.

Factor XI deficiency is an autosomal bleeding disorder of variable severity. It is particularly common in the Ashkenazi Jewish population, the result of two founder mutations - E117X and F283L. Recent studies have shown the causative mutations of Factor XI deficiency, outside the Ashkenazi Jewish population, to be highly heterogeneous.

An Alu-mediated 31.5-kb deletion as the cause of factor XI deficiency in 2 unrelated patients.

Factor XI deficiency (MIM 264900) is an autosomal bleeding disorder of variable severity. Inheritance is not completely recessive as heterozygotes may display a distinct, if mild, bleeding tendency. Recent studies have shown the causative mutations of factor XI deficiency, outside the Ashkenazi Jewish population, to be highly heterogeneous.

Eighteen unrelated patients with factor XI deficiency, four novel mutations and a 100% detection rate by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography.

Factor XI (FXI) deficiency is an autosomal bleeding disorder of variable severity. Inheritance is not completely recessive as heterozygotes may display a distinct, if mild, bleeding tendency. Eighteen unrelated FXI-deficient patients were screened blind by fluorescent single-stranded conformation polymorphism (F-SSCP) analysis and denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (dHPLC).
