AI model predicts chronic rhinosinusitis using nationwide EHR data

Researchers have developed a new method to predict chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) using nationwide electronic health record (EHR) data. The approach leverages two years of pre-diagnostic history and a hybrid feature-selection pipeline to distill over 110,000 potential codes into 100 interpretable features. By training demographic-stratified models across six subgroups, the framework achieved an AUC of 0.8461, demonstrating improved discrimination for risk stratification and potential for earlier triage in primary care. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates the potential of EHR data for disease risk stratification, potentially improving patient triage and care.

    Nationwide EHR-Based Chronic Rhinosinusitis Prediction Using Demographic-Stratified Models

    arXiv:2605.05213v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a common heterogeneous inflammatory disorder that causes substantial morbidity and healthcare costs. CRS is difficult to identify early from routine encounters, as symptom presentations overlap with c…
