Purpose: To comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) Privacy Rule, many real-world data providers mask a patient's date of birth by supplying only year of birth to data users. The lack of granularity around patient age is a challenge when using RWD, especially for pediatric research studies. In this study, a proxy for patient date of birth is evaluated using electronic health record (EHR) data.

Background: The prevalence of burnout among United States (US) dermatologists has surged, reaching 49% in 2023, with a growing volume of bureaucratic tasks (eg, charting, paperwork) the leading factor behind professional fatigue. We seek to explore the competitive landscape and efficacy of AI-powered patient documentation to alleviate burnout among dermatologists by optimizing documentation practices while maintaining accuracy.
Methods: We conducted a review of eighteen AI-powered automated documentation products available in the current healthcare landscape, focusing on their integration with electronic health record (EHR) systems, HIPAA compliance, language support, mobile accessibility, and consumer type.

Background: Increase in early onset colorectal cancer makes adherence to screening a significant public health concern, with various social determinants playing a crucial role in its incidence, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. Stressful life events, such as divorce, marriage, or sudden loss of job, have a unique position among the social determinants of health.
Methods: We applied a large language model (LLM) to social history sections of clinical notes in the health records database of the Medical University of South Carolina to extract recent stressful life events and assess their impact on colorectal cancer screening adherence.
