The comprehensive adoption of Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) offers numerous benefits but also introduces risks of privacy leakage, particularly for patients with Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) who need protection from social secondary harm. Despite advancements in privacy protection research, the effectiveness of these strategies in real-world data remains debatable. The objective is to develop effective information extraction and privacy protection strategies to safeguard STI patients in the Chinese healthcare environment and prevent unnecessary privacy leakage during the data-sharing process of EMRs.
