Background: This study examined the relationship between neurofilament light chain (NfL) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and cognition in people living with HIV (PLWH) at baseline and over time.
Methods: Plasma and clinical data were available from PLWH aged ≥45 years with HIV RNA <200 copies/mL enrolled in the AIDS Clinical Trials Group HAILO cohort study. We measured plasma NfL and GFAP using a single molecule array platform.
Article Synopsis
- Unstructured and structured data in electronic health records (EHR) can provide valuable insights for research, but extracting this information can be challenging; researchers introduced an automated model to identify patients with Alzheimer's Disease, related dementias (ADRD), and mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
- The study involved a sample of 3,626 outpatient adults, using medical notes and diagnoses from chart reviews to develop a logistic regression model that predicts MCI/ADRD diagnoses with high performance metrics.
- The model demonstrated impressive accuracy (99.88%) and other metrics (like AUROC of 0.98), showing that automated EHR phenotyping could effectively facilitate large-scale research on MCI/ADRD.
