Objectives: We propose and test a framework to detect disease diagnosis using a recent large language model (LLM), Meta's Llama-3-8B, on French-language electronic health record (EHR) documents. Specifically, it focuses on detecting gout ('goutte' in French), a ubiquitous French term that has multiple meanings beyond the disease. The study compares the performance of the LLM-based framework with traditional natural language processing techniques and tests its dependence on the parameter used.

Chondrocalcinosis, commonly associated with aging, is characterized by the deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals in cartilage and periarticular tissues. Early-onset cases are rare and not well-documented. We report a case of a 60-year-old woman with a probable onset of CPP deposition (CPPD) disease during adolescence, presenting with inflammatory flare-ups and erosive progression following minor trauma.

Methods: Eligible patients were identified using linked national data from the Danish Shoulder Arthroplasty Registry and Statistics Denmark between April 2012 and April 2019. Univariable and multivariable linear regression was used to identify the association between socioeconomic factors and the WOOS index at 1 year following primary shoulder arthroplasty adjusted for age, sex, underlying diagnosis, implant design, and comorbidities.

Premature costochondral calcification is a rare finding occurring in young patients and is associated with metabolic and endocrinological conditions. Significant heterogeneity exists with regard to its definition and assessment. This scoping review aimed to summarize the prevalence, risk factors, etiology, evaluation, and management of patients with premature costochondral calcification.

The radiological manifestations of calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) revolve around two main axes: the asymptomatic form and CPPD disease. The latter is a consequence of an immune response to calcium phosphate crystals. Chondrocalcinosis is broadly considered the radiographic manifestation of CPPD regardless of whether it is asymptomatic or associated with inflammatory arthritis.
