Discordance, accuracy and reproducibility study of pathologists' diagnosis of melanoma and melanocytic tumors.

Accurate melanoma diagnosis is crucial for patient outcomes and reliability of AI diagnostic tools. We assess interrater variability among eight expert pathologists reviewing histopathological images and clinical metadata of 792 melanoma-suspicious lesions prospectively collected at eight German hospitals. Moreover, we provide access to the largest panel-validated dataset featuring dermoscopic and histopathological images with metadata.

Continuous versus intermittent tacrolimus for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients (Tic Tac).

Background: Tacrolimus is administered via a continuous or intermittent IV infusion to prevent acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD) in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Limited comparison data is available.

Objectives: The primary objective was to compare the proportion of therapeutic tacrolimus trough levels in the first 30 days post-stem cell infusion.

Remote Symptom Monitoring in Thoracic Surgery Patients After Discharge.

Objective: Evaluate an electronic platform for remote symptom monitoring to enhance postdischarge care in thoracic surgery using patient reporting of symptoms.

Summary Background Data: Owing to the increased use of enhanced recovery after surgery protocols, patients are spending a larger portion of their postoperative course at home. For patients undergoing complex operations, this represents an opportunity for early identification of abnormal symptoms at home before deterioration.

Rapid identification and phenotyping of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients using a machine-based approach in diverse healthcare systems.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common global cause of chronic liver disease and remains under-recognized within healthcare systems. Therapeutic interventions are rapidly advancing for its inflammatory phenotype, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) at all stages of disease. Diagnosis codes alone fail to recognize and stratify at-risk patients accurately.

Developing and disseminating an electronic penicillin allergy de-labelling tool using the model for improvement framework.

Background: Many clinicians feel uncomfortable with de-labelling penicillin allergies despite ample safety data. Point of care tools effectively support providers with de-labelling. This study's objective was to increase the number of providers intending to pursue a penicillin oral challenge by 15% by February 2023.
