AI models in hospitals miss 66% of patient injuries, failing to detect worsening health. A study urges integrating medical expertise, as 65% of US hospitals rely on these systems for patient care. 🩺💻 Direct link to the study: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

AI failed to detect critical health conditions: study

AI systems designed to predict the likelihood of a hospitalized patient dying aren't detecting worsening health conditions.

While we refuse to ignore the chaos, we also know how important it is in this moment to lift up our #UW #impsci community, all of whom are dedicated to making the world better and safer for us all. To that end, we will be highlighting their recent publications over the coming weeks.

Friends and colleagues: if you have work that has previously been made available via #PubMed or other federal infrastructure, please find other ways to share it. For instance: KC Works is a non-profit, community-governed repository (built on top of CERN's InvenioRDM). works.hcommons.org

Trying to get used to using Europe PMC for my usual literature searches. Thank you very much, Europe! 🇪🇺

But: We need safe, decentralized long-term alternatives to avoid these disruptions in the future. In the meantime, #EuropePMC (europepmc.org) is a solid alternative for accessing much of PubMed’s content and more. 🔍 #OpenScience #PubMed #PMC #NIH #AcademicSky

Today is #EDSA39 🇵🇭, when millions took to the streets to bring down the Marcos dictatorship in 1986. With a Marcos back in power, the spirit that led to that peaceful revolt is being undermined by historical revision and erasure. May the Spirit of EDSA live on, now more than ever.

How can we regulate AI in health care to protect patients while driving innovation? LDI Senior Fellows Daniel Herman and Gary Weissman suggest leveraging CLIA, a proven clinical lab oversight program, as a model for AI regulation. Read more: ldi.upenn.edu/our-work/res...

The Missing Link to Regulate AI Systems in Health

Artificial intelligence – already a booming sector in health care — will need more than just smart innovation to succeed.

I know today was difficult. I understand you’re tired baby. So tired. You’ve said wtf more times in 24 hrs than you’ve said your whole life. 😮‍💨 But you can’t quit now. People need your help. You can’t accept this chaos & hatred as normal. Sit beside me, rest & get your energy back.

Grateful that #AcademyHealth #discience24 discussed how D&I can help improve response to emergencies & disasters. Excited to see future work that takes up the charge! Short thread on my limited experience on the topic follows 🧵

So many interesting posters, so little time! #discience24

Of the many moral disgraces of the Covid pandemic, the failure to protect health workers from death—especially minority health workers—was one of the worst My Duke colleague Dr Keisha Bentley-Edwards led a superb @bmj.com analysis on “race, racism & Covid-19 in the US”: www.bmj.com/content/384/...

Race, racism, and covid-19 in the US: lessons not learnt

Keisha Bentley-Edwards and colleagues argue that systemic racism and economic inequality are at the root of disparity in covid-19 outcomes and suggest how to distribute resources more equitably. The...

A mini intro for those at #AcademyHealth #DIScience24: I'm Jim, a 3rd year PhD candidate in population health sciences at Duke U. I'm not presenting this year (maybe at #ARM25) but I'd like to network! I'm doing work on the #LearningHealthSystem.

I’m attending #AcademyHealth #discience24! There’s a talk on climate science & relating with D&I. As a citizen of a heavily-impacted LMIC, I wonder if it’s part of the convo to build skill and investment for D&I within LMICs to address health impacts.

Hi all, I’m Jim, a PhD candidate at #Duke doing research on #learninghealthsystems, looking for folks to follow! #HealthSky #AcademicSky
