Repo contributors: Benjamin Skov Kaas-Hansen [code author], Davide Placido [code review], Cristina Rodriguez Leal [code review]

The repo holds the public version of our full analytic pipeline of the paper Eliciting side effects from clinical notes: language-agnostic pharmacovigilant text mining. Symlinks and other internal files have been removed as they are non-essential for reading the code in the repo and wouldn't port anyway.

Scope of study

Develop a machine learning pipeline for safety signal detection in textual data from electronic medical records.

Design

Case-control-like, but not really.

Data sources (all Danish)

  • In-hospital medication data
  • In-hospital clinical notes from the first 48 hours of admissions

Important notes for running the pipeline:

  • The command bash snakeqsub.sh must be run from the bash shell.
  • If you happed to automatically start another shell in .basrc, deactivate that to avoid invoking this alternative shell. Otherwise, processes will linger and clog the pipeline.
