Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), also known as Long-COVID, encompasses a variety of complex and varied outcomes following COVID-19 infection that are still poorly understood. We clustered over 600 million condition diagnoses from 14 million patients available through the National COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C), generating hundreds of highly detailed clinical phenotypes. Assessing patient clinical trajectories using these clusters allowed us to identify individual conditions and phenotypes strongly increased after acute infection.

- Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), or Long-COVID, involves a range of complex health outcomes that arise after COVID-19, which are still not fully understood.
- Researchers analyzed over 600 million diagnoses from 14 million patients to create detailed clinical categories and examined patients' health outcomes over time.
- The study identified numerous health conditions that were more prevalent in COVID-19 patients compared to non-infected individuals, highlighting specific patterns based on factors like sex, age, and severity, which may lead to better diagnostics and understanding of Long-COVID.
Objectives: The COVID-19 pandemic has introduced new opportunities for health communication, including an increase in the public's use of online outlets for health-related emotions. People have turned to social media networks to share sentiments related to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this paper, we examine the role of social messaging shared by Persons in the Public Eye (ie, athletes, politicians, news personnel, etc) in determining overall public discourse direction.

Objective: To determine if increased mortality could be detected with the administration of ceftriaxone and IV calcium in infants through an analysis of a large repository of electronic health records.
Methods: Patients were split into 3 groups: 1) neonates, 2) infants, and 3) infants <1 year whose age was not specified. Deaths were classified into mutually exclusive categories based on the administration and timing of ceftriaxone and IV calcium.
Background: Centralized care for patients with pancreatic cancer is associated with longer survival. We hypothesized that increased travel distance from home is associated with increased survival for pancreatic cancer patients.
Methods: The National Cancer Database user file for all pancreatic cancer patients was investigated from 2004 through 2015.
Objectives: To describe an innovative health information technology (HIT) model for supporting community-wide health improvement through multiprovider collaboration in a regional population health registry and practice-based research network (PBRN).
Study Design: Case study.
Methods: We describe the HIT data structure and governance of the Diabetes Wellness and Prevention Coalition (DWPC) Registry and PBRN based in Memphis, Tennessee.
