Large language models for accurate disease detection in electronic health records: the examples of crystal arthropathies.
RMD Open
December 2024
Division of Rheumatology, Geneva University Hospitals, Geneva, Switzerland.
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.

Rheumatology (Oxford)
December 2024
Academic Rheumatology, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK.
Objective: To develop and validate a patient-reported definition of acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis in people with crystal-proven CPP deposition (CPPD) disease.
Methods: Consecutive patients with crystal-proven CPPD disease from seven centres across four countries were enrolled in a cross-sectional study. In each centre, patient-reported outcomes on the features of acute CPP crystal arthritis were collected.
Impact of Green Tea Consumption on Postoperative Ileus in Colon Cancer Patients: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial.
Cureus
October 2024
Department of Surgery, Tochigi Medical Center Shimotsuga, Tochigi, JPN.
Article Synopsis
- A pilot study aimed to assess the effects of green tea on recovery after colon cancer surgery, comparing it to water consumption among patients.
- The trial involved 18 patients who were randomly assigned to either a green-tea-drinking or water-drinking group, with the primary focus on the time to first defecation post-surgery.
- Results showed no significant differences in recovery outcomes, such as time to first defecation, length of hospital stay, or incidence of complications between the two groups, indicating both drinks were safe options.
Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA)-Associated Fasciitis Mimicking Pseudogout in an Older Patient: A Diagnostic Challenge and Treatment Approach.
Cureus
October 2024
Department of Community Medicine Management, Shimane University Faculty of Medicine, Izumo, JPN.
ANCA-associated fasciitis is a rare manifestation of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) that can mimic other conditions, such as pseudogout, especially in elderly patients. We present the case of a 93-year-old woman who initially developed polyarthralgia, muscle pain, and difficulty walking, symptoms suggestive of pseudogout. However, after further investigation, including elevated myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA levels and MRI findings, she was diagnosed with ANCA-associated fasciitis.

Front Med (Lausanne)
October 2024
Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Lausanne University Hospital (CHUV) and University of Lausanne (UNIL), Lausanne, Switzerland.
Article Synopsis
- CPPD disease is a significant cause of arthritis that can resemble other rheumatic conditions, making accurate diagnosis crucial.
- A deep-learning algorithm was developed and tested to automatically detect CPPD features in hand radiographs, focusing specifically on certain joint areas.
- The combined model for detecting CPPD showed strong performance metrics, with a mean AUROC of 0.86 and good sensitivity and specificity, while separate models for different joint areas had varying success rates.
