New method generates diverse EHR data types while maintaining privacy.
Electronic Health Records (EHR) are high-dimensional data with implicit connections among thousands of medical concepts. These connections, for instance, the co-occurrence of diseases and lab-disease correlations can be informative when only a subset of these variables is documented by the clinician. A feasible approac…
PEHRT harmonizes EHR data for translational research.
The past decade has seen an explosion in the amount of digital information stored in electronic health records (EHR).
