AI Article Synopsis

  • Aggregate de-identified data from electronic health records (EHRs) is essential for research, with initiatives like the Standardized Health data and Research Exchange (SHaRE) leading the way.
  • Over 51 healthcare facilities have provided extensive data—4.8 million patients with 63 million encounters to Cerner Health Facts and 7.4 million patients with 119 million encounters to Cerner Real-World Data.
  • SHaRE fosters collaboration and data validation among organizations, enhancing research in epidemiology and health disparities without the need for additional technology installations.

Article Abstract

Aggregate de-identified data from electronic health records (EHRs) provide a valuable resource for research. The Standardized Health data and Research Exchange (SHaRE) is a diverse group of US healthcare organizations contributing to the Cerner Health Facts (HF) and Cerner Real-World Data (CRWD) initiatives. The 51 facilities at the 7 founding organizations have provided data about more than 4.8 million patients with 63 million encounters to HF and 7.4 million patients and 119 million encounters to CRWD. SHaRE organizations unmask their organization IDs and provide 3-digit zip code (zip3) data to support epidemiology and disparity research. SHaRE enables communication between members, facilitating data validation and collaboration as we demonstrate by comparing imputed EHR module usage to actual usage. Unlike other data sharing initiatives, no additional technology installation is required. SHaRE establishes a foundation for members to engage in discussions that bridge data science research and patient care, promoting the learning health system.

The aim of this study is to determine the mediating role of moral sensitivity in the effect of nurses' professional values on missed nursing care. A descriptive and correlational study was conducted with 640 nurses working in the inpatient units of a public and a private hospital with the MISSCARE Survey-Turkish, the Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire, and the Revised Nursing Professional Values Scale. Data analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences 26.

Angiogenesis begins as endothelial cells migrate, forming a sprouting tip and subsequent growth-rich stalk cells. Here, we present a protocol for transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses of tip-like cells in cultured endothelial cells. We describe steps for stimulating human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) to generate tip-like cells.

Here, we present a protocol for using Myotally, a user-friendly software for fast, automated quantification of muscle fiber size, number, and central nucleation from immunofluorescent stains of mouse skeletal muscle cross-sections. We describe steps for installing the software, preparing compatible images, finding the file path, and selecting key parameters like image quality and size limits. We also detail optional features, such as measuring mean fluorescence.

Live-cell metabolic analyzer protocol for measuring glucose and lactate metabolic changes in human cells.

STAR Protoc

January 2025

Department of Health Sciences, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka 812-8582, Japan. Electronic address:

Understanding metabolic conditions related to glycolysis dependence is crucial for developing new treatments in cancer and regenerative medicine. This protocol details a method for using the live-cell metabolic analyzer (LiCellMo) to measure continuous changes in glucose consumption and lactate production in cultured human cells. LiCellMo provides real-time data on consecutive metabolic changes, improving measurements of these processes in various contexts, including in cancer and regenerative treatments.
