DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A critical element of translating science into practice is the ability to find patient populations for clinical research. Many studies rely on administrative data for selecting relevant patients for studies of comparative effectiveness, but the limitations of administrative data is well-known. Much of the information critical for clinical research is locked in free-text dictated reports, such as history and physical exams and radiology reports. Data repositories, such as the Medical Archival Retrieval System (MARS) at the University of Pittsburgh, are useful for identifying supersets of patients for clinical research studies through indexed word searches. However, simple text-based queries are also limited in their effectiveness, and researchers are often left reading through hundreds or thousands of reports to filter out false positive cases. Current processes are time-consuming and extraordinarily expensive. They lead to long delays between the development of a testable hypothesis and the ability to share findings with the medical community at large. A potential solution to this problem is pre-annotating de-identified clinical reports to facilitate more intelligent and sophisticated retrieval and review. Clinical reports are rich in meaning and structure and can be annotated at many different levels using natural language processing technology. It is not clear, however, what types of annotations would be most helpful to a clinical researcher, nor is it clear how to display the annotations to best assist manual review of reports. There is interdependence between the annotation schema used by an NLP system and the user interface for assisting researchers in retrieving data for retrospective studies. In this proposal, we will interactively revise an NLP annotation schema as well as explore various methods for annotation display based on feedback from users reviewing patient data for specific research studies. We hypothesize that an interactive search application that relies on NLP-annotated clinical text will increase the accuracy and efficiency of finding patients for clinical research studies and will support visualization techniques for viewing the data in a way that improves a researcher's ability to review patient data.

描述（由申请人提供）： 将科学转化为实践的一个关键因素是能够找到临床研究的患者群体。许多研究依赖于管理数据来选择相关患者进行比较有效性的研究，但管理数据的局限性是众所周知的。许多对临床研究至关重要的信息都被锁定在自由文本口述报告中，例如病史、体格检查和放射学报告。数据存储库，如匹兹堡大学的医学档案检索系统（MARS），可用于通过索引词搜索识别临床研究的患者超集。然而，简单的基于文本的查询在其有效性方面也是有限的，并且研究人员经常被留下阅读成百上千的报告以过滤掉假阳性病例。目前的工艺既耗时又非常昂贵。它们导致在可检验的假设的发展和与整个医学界分享发现的能力之间的长时间延迟。 这个问题的一个潜在的解决方案是预先注释去识别的临床报告，以促进更智能和复杂的检索和审查。临床报告具有丰富的意义和结构，可以使用自然语言处理技术在许多不同的层次上进行注释。然而，尚不清楚什么类型的注释对临床研究人员最有帮助，也不清楚如何显示注释以最好地帮助手动审查报告。NLP系统所使用的注释模式和帮助研究人员检索数据进行回顾性研究的用户界面之间存在相互依赖性。在本提案中，我们将交互式地修改NLP注释模式，并根据用户对特定研究的患者数据进行审查的反馈，探索各种注释显示方法。 我们假设，一个交互式的搜索应用程序，依赖于NLP注释的临床文本，将增加的准确性和效率，发现患者的临床研究研究，并将支持可视化技术，以提高研究人员的能力来查看患者数据的方式查看数据。
