AI Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to link pharmaceutical claim codes to SNOMED CT to enhance collaborative research and improve data consistency across different centers.
- - The mapping process involved both automated and manual methods, with quality checks conducted by experts in terminology and pharmacy.
- - Ultimately, 80% of the claim codes were successfully mapped to SNOMED CT, with over half (50.6%) fitting precisely into a specific clinical drug category.
Article Abstract
The objective of this study was to map pharmaceutical claim codes to SNOMED CT and thereby facilitate multicenter collaborative research and improve semantic interoperability. The claim codes were mapped to SNOMED CT using rule-based automated and manual methods. The maps were internally validated by terminologists and a pharmacist. Finally, 80% of all claim codes were mapped to the concepts of Pharmaceutical/biologic product hierarchy in SNOMED CT. Of them, 50.6% of the codes were exactly mapped to one clinical drug branch concept.

Background: Burn injuries can require hospitalization, operations, and long-term reconstruction. Burn-injured patients can experience short- or long-term disability. We investigated lost workdays (LWDs), short-term disability (STD), and long-term disability (LTD) in the 12-month period following a burn injury.

Background: Prisoner health is a major global concern, with prisoners often facing limited access to health care and enduring chronic diseases, infectious diseases, and poor mental health due to unsafe prison environments, unhygienic living conditions, and inadequate medical resources. In Taiwan, prison health is increasingly an issue, particularly concerning urinary diseases such as urinary tract infections. Limited access to health care and unsanitary conditions exacerbate these problems.

Introduction: Modifiable Areal Unit Problems are a major source of spatial uncertainty, but their impact on infectious diseases and epidemic detection is unknown.
Methods: CMS claims (2016-2019) which included infectious disease codes learned through Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) were extracted and analysed at two different units of geography; states and 'home to work commute extent' mega regions. Analysis was per member per month.

Recently, certain studies have claimed that cognitive features and pathologies unique to humans can be traced to certain changes in the nervous system. These are caused by genes that have likely evolved "from scratch," not having any coding precursors. The translated proteins would not appear outside of the human lineage and any orthologs in other species should be non-coding.
