Collecting clinical data from patient visits involves the process of gathering information about a patient's medical history, current symptoms, and other relevant information during a healthcare appointment. This typically includes taking a detailed medical history, conducting a physical examination, ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests, and documenting the findings in the patient's medical record. This may also include more focused evaluations, as with the AI-READI project’s assessments of cognitive function and visual acuity. Medical records may include structured/unstructured text, values for lab results, and/or images. Harry Caufield caufieldjh ORCID:0000-0001-5705-7831

Clinical waveform data from an electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) is a representation of the electrical activity of the heart. The EKG measures the voltage between different points on the body and records the resulting waveform. This waveform can be used to diagnose a variety of heart conditions, including arrhythmias and heart attacks. It is typically recorded using a machine that is attached to the patient via electrodes.

Ophthalmic image data is data that is collected from images of the eye. This type of data is typically used in the field of ophthalmology, which is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases and disorders. Ophthalmic images can provide valuable information about the health of the eye, including the structure and function of the various parts of the eye, such as the retina, cornea, and lens.

Patient data from laboratory analysis typically includes results from tests that have been performed on samples taken from the patient, such as blood, urine, or other bodily fluids. Serological testing is a type of laboratory analysis that involves testing blood serum (the liquid part of blood) for the presence of various indicators of disease or health. Urinalysis is another common type of laboratory analysis that involves testing urine samples for various factors, such as the presence of bacteria, glucose, or other substances. Test results may or may not be derived from EHR data. Here, data includes records from mobile devices used to complement laboratory diagnostics, including continuous glucose monitoring.

Wearable devices are small electronic devices that can be worn on the body to collect data about the user's activity, movements, and other physiological information. This data can include things like steps taken, heart rate, sleep patterns, and other metrics that can be used to track health and fitness. Activity data may be viewed in aggregate (e.g., number of steps per day above a threshold rather than exact counts or geolocation data) to serve as approximates of physical fitness assessments otherwise performed by clinical personnel.

Social determinants of health (SDoH) are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. These conditions are shaped by the distribution of money, power, and resources at global, national, and local levels. SDoH are largely responsible for health inequities - unfair and avoidable differences in health status from person to person. SDoH data may be collected directly from individuals or based on integration with other data, but it generally includes at least one of the following factors poverty and income inequality, education and literacy, employment and working conditions, gender and gender equality, social exclusion and discrimination, housing and living conditions, or access to healthcare.

The proteome is the complete set of proteins that is expressed by a genome, cell, tissue, or organism at a given time and set of conditions. Proteome data refers to the information that is generated from studies of the proteome, such as the identification and characterization of the proteins that are expressed, their relative abundance, and any modifications that they may undergo. In the CM4AI project, proteome data is obtained through affinity purification coupled with tandem mass spectroscopy (AP-MS/MS). Harry Caufield caufieldjh ORCID:0000-0001-5705-7831

Transforming data from OMOP to the i2b2 standard involves converting the data from OMOP's schema to the i2b2 schema, which allows for the data to be more easily queried and analyzed using i2b2's tools and platforms. This involves mapping the data to equivalent concepts in the i2b2 schema, and may also involve cleaning and preprocessing the data to ensure that it is in the correct format for use with i2b2.

The sets of identifiers shared between two or more data products serve as points of commonality between observations, but in practice, a desired level of interoperability may not be achievable without mapping some identifiers to equivalent terms. This may be necessary for entire namespaces (e.g., mapping all NCBI Gene identifiers to their corresponding UniProtKB protein accessions) or for a subset (e.g., mapping ChEBI entries for drugs to their identifiers in a drug-centric knowledge base). There may also be a need to define inexact matches: an identifier’s best mapping in another resource may be to a more broadly-defined concept. Harry Caufield caufieldjh ORCID:0000-0001-5705-7831

As per Qin et al. (2021) Nature (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-021-04115-9), imaging data and biophysical association data may be combined to develop measurements of protein distance within subcellular systems. This use case builds on that strategy by adding a third component: measurement of transcript changes under perturbation conditions for each protein. For the CM4AI DGP, this process involves evidence graphs. The result here is not a full subcellular map, but rather the integrated data necessary to assemble such a map.

Standardizing clinical record data across multiple sites and sources involves several steps, all with the goal of rendering it more usable in subsequent analyses. Data is first collected from electronic health records, clinical databases, surveys, and potentially other sources. Next, the data is cleaned and transformed to a consistent format. This may include removing duplicate records, filling in missing data, and standardizing field names and values. The data is then validated to ensure that it is accurate and complete. Standardized data is then integrated into a central repository. Harry Caufield caufieldjh ORCID:0000-0001-5705-7831

As with other clinical observations and records, standardizing waveform data is largely a process of collection, cleaning, transformation, validation, and storage. The features of waveforms, whether audio or cardiac in origin, require specific handling to ensure physiologically-relevant details are retained. Raw waveform data is quite large and therefore consumes more disk space than most database architectures are prepared to operate with. This data may be collected continuously, leading to accumulation of large quantities of incoming observations to store and analyze. standardization must therefore be sensitive to the size and resolution of waveform data.

Standardizing clinical images across sites and sources involves ensuring that images are captured and stored in a consistent manner, so that they can be easily compared and analyzed. This may include following guidelines for image acquisition, e.g., recommended image resolution, contrast, and lighting conditions. It also includes image metadata properties such as consistent labeling and format. Depending on subsequent applications, it may require image processing, such as normalization, to correct for variations in appearance due to differences in equipment or patient positioning.

Developing models of clinical image data may involve annotation, preprocessing, and model training. Generally, annotation requires labeling images with disease or clinical phenotype-relevant information such as labels, bounding boxes, and segmentation masks. The annotation process may be assisted by automated methods, particularly in cases where patient features are already known. Preprocessing such as resizing, normalization, and data augmentation then prepares the labeled images for model training.
