![]() ![]() As shown in the work presented here, these approaches lack sensitivity (recall) for this data set, and thus fail to identify most of the reports that contain an abnormality. ![]() Two straightforward methods to be considered are keyword searches and International Classification of Diseases (ICD9) based searches. Because the reports are unlabeled, it is difficult for researchers to select reports that contain abnormalities in a specific region, e.g. The Audiological and Genetic Database (AudGenDB), a public, de-identified observational research database derived from EHR data sources, contains over 16,000 de-identified, unlabeled radiologist reports. In audiologic and otologic research, the ability to use anatomic information described in radiology is essential to understand the causes of hearing loss for research subjects and to develop new treatment modalities. These methods have been applied to automate EHR text analysis in a variety of studies including phenotype extraction, adverse drug-event identification, and domain-specific radiology report classification. Natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) methods present an alternative to manual text review. Such manual review may be time consuming and expensive, particularly for large data sets. In the absence of automated processing, this requires trained data abstractors to manually review the text sources and identify discrete values of interest. ![]() Prior to research utilization, EHR text data, such as physician notes and radiology reports typically must be converted to discrete values, e.g. Transportation Assistant Secretary Giovanni Lopez during a virtual presser on Thursday, Feb.Electronic health records (EHRs) contain significant amounts of unstructured text that pose a challenge to their secondary use as a research data source. He said Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers (MVICs), both private and government-owned, will now charge the same inspection fees as Private Emission Testing Centers (PETCs). MANILA – Motor Vehicle Inspection Centers (MVICs) will now charge the same fees for vehicle inspection as Private Emission Testing Centers (PETCs) following President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s order not to make MVIC mandatory before registering with the Land Transportation Office (LTO). In a virtual press conference on Thursday, Department of Transportation (DOTr) Assistant Secretary Giovanni Lopez said MVICs have agreed to lower their inspection fees from as much as PHP1,800 to PHP600 for light vehicles, PHP500 for motorcycles, and PHP300 for jeepneys. “Dagdag pa dito, wala ng reinspection fee sa loob ng isang taon (In addition, there will no longer be a reinspection fee for a year),” Lopez said. In a news release issued on Thursday, DOTr Secretary Arthur Tugade appealed to private MVICs to lower inspections fees and suspend reinspection fees for at least a year. Tugade said PMVICs should lower their fees to the same rates being offered by PETCs which is around PHP500 to PHP800. Lopez said the new charges and suspension of reinspection fees will start either on Friday or Saturday. To ensure compliance of all MVICs, including those privately owned, he said the DOTr will issue appropriate instructions and memoranda to “enjoin MVIC owners to comply and to follow the new rate of fees.” He clarified that motorists will now have the option of having their vehicles inspected at either MVICs or PETCs and guaranteed that MVICs operated by the LTO will remain open. ![]()
