This study aimed to develop an automatic diagnostic scheme for bruxism, a sleep-related disorder characterized by teeth grinding and clenching. The aim was to improve on existing methods, which have been proven to be inefficient and challenging. We utilized a novel hybrid machine learning classifier, facilitated by the Weka tool, to diagnose bruxism from biological signals.

The successful implementation of pharmacogenetics (PGx) into clinical practice requires patient genomic data to be shared between stakeholders in multiple settings. This creates a number of barriers to widespread adoption of PGx, including privacy concerns related to the storage and movement of identifiable genomic data. Informatic solutions that support secure and equitable data access for genomic data are therefore important to PGx.
