Unleashing The Power of Your Master Linkage Map – Is There A Role For Business Intelligence Tools In Supporting Data Linkage?

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2019
Background with rationale Business Intelligence (BI) software applications collect and process large amounts of data from one or more sources, and for a variety of purposes. These can include generating operational or sales reports, developing dashboards

Improving Cardiac Insights: Harnessing Privacy-Preserving Record Linkage (PPRL) to Obtain, Link, and Enhance Data for a Healthier Australia

International Journal of Population Data Science
Objective General Practices (GPs) collect vital information on health and disease in Australia, however much of this sensitive data is difficult to share for linkage purposes due to confidentiality and privacy concerns. PPRL techniques have presented an

The effect of cross-jurisdictional linked hospital and death data on estimating risk-adjusted grouped hospital standardised mortality ratios in Australia

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2017
Objectives The Population Health Research Network (PHRN) was established to increase data linkage capacity in Australia. A proof of concept study investigating cross border hospital use and hospital mortality was undertaken to demonstrate the ...

Mapping genes through the use of linkage disequilibrium generated by genetic drift: 'Drift mapping' in small populations with no demographic expansion [PDF]

, 1998
Linkage disequilibrium has been a powerful tool in identifying rare disease alleles in human populations. To date, most research has been directed to isolated populations which have undergone a bottleneck followed by rapid exponential expansion.

Categorical linkage‐data analysis

Statistics in Medicine
Analysis of integrated data often requires record linkage in order to join together the data residing in separate sources. In case linkage errors cannot be avoided, due to the lack a unique identity key that can be used to link the records unequivocally, standard statistical techniques may produce misleading inference if the linked data are treated as ...

Leveraging Machine Learning to Combat Missingness and Error in Data

International Journal of Population Data Science
Objective Poor quality data confounds efforts to link clients across datasets. To combat this, we have trialed an approach which seeks to identify linkage candidates using associations with related services.  We utilised a machine learning (ML) approach

The Western Australia Population-based Burn Injury Project: Using record linkage to examine long-term effects of burn injury

International Journal of Population Data Science, 2017
Objectives While the most obvious impact of a burn is a visible scar, there are hidden impacts. The main contributors to adverse health outcomes after burns are the metabolic, inflammatory, immune and endocrine changes that occur in response to the ...

Genomic signatures of population decline in the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

, 2016
Population genomic features such as nucleotide diversity and linkage disequilibrium are expected to be strongly shaped by changes in population size, and might therefore be useful for monitoring the success of a control campaign.
