Investigation of a Data Split Strategy Involving the Time Axis in Adverse Event Prediction Using Machine Learning [PDF]
Adverse events are a serious issue in drug development and many prediction methods using machine learning have been developed. The random split cross-validation is the de facto standard for model building and evaluation in machine learning, but care should be taken in adverse event prediction because this approach does not match to the real-world ...

Survival analysis for AdVerse events with VarYing follow-up times (SAVVY): Rationale and statistical concept of a meta-analytic study [PDF]
The assessment of safety is an important aspect of the evaluation of new therapies in clinical trials, with analyses of adverse events being an essential part of this. Standard methods for the analysis of adverse events such as the incidence proportion, i.e.

A Sui Generis QA Approach using RoBERTa for Adverse Drug Event Identification [PDF]
Extraction of adverse drug events from biomedical literature and other textual data is an important component to monitor drug-safety and this has attracted attention of many researchers in healthcare. Existing works are more pivoted around entity-relation extraction using bidirectional long short term memory networks (Bi-LSTM) which does not attain the

Boosting Adverse Drug Event Normalization on Social Media: General-Purpose Model Initialization and Biomedical Semantic Text Similarity Benefit Zero-Shot Linking in Informal Contexts [PDF]
Biomedical entity linking, also known as biomedical concept normalization, has recently witnessed the rise to prominence of zero-shot contrastive models. However, the pre-training material used for these models has, until now, largely consisted of specialist biomedical content such as MIMIC-III clinical notes (Johnson et al., 2016) and PubMed papers ...

DS4DH at #SMM4H 2023: Zero-Shot Adverse Drug Events Normalization using Sentence Transformers and Reciprocal-Rank Fusion [PDF]
This paper outlines the performance evaluation of a system for adverse drug event normalization, developed by the Data Science for Digital Health (DS4DH) group for the Social Media Mining for Health Applications (SMM4H) 2023 shared task 5. Shared task 5 targeted the normalization of adverse drug event mentions in Twitter to standard concepts of the ...
