Comparing the influence of big data resources on medical knowledge recall for staff with and without medical collaboration platform.

BACKGROUND: This study aims to examine how big data resources affect the recall of prior medical knowledge by healthcare professionals, and how this differs in environments with and without remote consultation platforms. METHOD: This study investigated two distinct categories of medical institutions, namely 132 medical institutions with platforms, and 176 medical institutions without the platforms. Big data resources are categorized into two levels-medical institutional level and public level-and three types, namely data, technology, and services. The data are analyzed using SmartPLS2. RESULTS: (1) In both scenarios, shared big data resources at the public level have a significant direct impact on the recall of prior medical knowledge. However, there is a significant difference in the direct impact of big data resources at the institutional level in both scenarios. (2) In institutions with platforms, for the three big data resources (the medical big data assets and big data deployment technical capacity at the medical institutional level, and policies of medical big data at the public level) without direct impacts, there exist three indirect pathways. (3) In institutions without platforms, for the two big data resources (the service capability and big data technical capacity at the medical institutional level) without direct impacts, there exist three indirect pathways. CONCLUSIONS: The different interactions between big data, technology, and services, as well as between different levels of big data resources, affect the way clinical doctors recall relevant medical knowledge. These interaction patterns vary between institutions with and without platforms. This study provides a reference for governments and institutions to design big data environments for improving clinical capabilities.

Particle filter-based parameter estimation algorithm for prognostic risk assessment of progression in non-small cell lung cancer.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a malignant tumor that threatens human life and health. The development of a new NSCLC risk assessment model based on electronic medical records has great potential for reducing the risk of cancer recurrence. In this process, machine learning is a powerful method for automatically extracting risk factors and indicating impact weights for NSCLC deaths. However, when the number of samples reaches a certain value, it is difficult for machine learning to improve the prediction accuracy, and it is also challenging to use the characteristic data of subsequent patients effectively. Therefore, this study aimed to build a postoperative survival risk assessment model for patients with NSCLC that updates the model parameters and improves model accuracy based on new patient data. The model perspective was a combination of particle filtering and parameter estimation. To demonstrate the feasibility and further evaluate the performance of our approach, we performed an empirical analysis experiment. The study showed that our method achieved an overall accuracy of 92% and a recall of 71% for deceased patients. Compared with traditional machine learning models, the accuracy of the model estimated by particle filter parameters has been improved by 2%, and the recall rate for dead patients has been improved by 11%. Additionally, this study outcome shows that this method can better utilize subsequent patients' characteristic data, be more relevant to different patients, and help achieve precision medicine.
