- Using Tweets to Understand How COVID-19-Related Health Beliefs Are Affected in the Age of Social Media: Twitter Data Analysis Study
- Original Bibliographic Citation:

- Abstract:
- Background: The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 (ie, COVID-19) has given rise to a global pandemic affecting 215 countries and over 40 million people as of October 2020. Meanwhile, we are also experiencing an infodemic induced by the overabundance of information, some accurate and some inaccurate, spreading rapidly across social media platforms. Social media has arguably shifted the information acquisition and dissemination of a considerably large population of internet users toward higher interactivities. Objective: This study aimed to investigate COVID-19-related health beliefs on one of the mainstream social media platforms, Twitter, as well as potential impacting factors associated with fluctuations in health beliefs on social media. Methods: We used COVID-19-related posts from the mainstream social media platform Twitter to monitor health beliefs. A total of 92,687,660 tweets corresponding to 8,967,986 unique users from January 6 to June 21, 2020, were retrieved. To quantify health beliefs, we employed the health belief model (HBM) with four core constructs: perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, and perceived barriers. We utilized natural language processing and machine learning techniques to automate the process of judging the conformity of each tweet with each of the four HBM constructs. A total of 5000 tweets were manually annotated for training the machine learning architectures. Results: The machine learning classifiers yielded areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves over 0.86 for the classification of all four HBM constructs. Our analyses revealed a basic reproduction number R(0 )of 7.62 for trends in the number of Twitter users posting health belief-related content over the study period. The fluctuations in the number of health belief-related tweets could reflect dynamics in case and death statistics, systematic interventions, and public events. Specifically, we observed that scientific events, such as scientific publications, and nonscientific events, such as politicians' speeches, were comparable in their ability to influence health belief trends on social media through a Kruskal-Wallis test (P=.78 and P=.92 for perceived benefits and perceived barriers, respectively). Conclusions: As an analogy of the classic epidemiology model where an infection is considered to be spreading in a population with an R-0 greater than 1, we found that the number of users tweeting about COVID-19 health beliefs was amplifying in an epidemic manner and could partially intensify the infodemic. It is unhealthy that both scientific and nonscientific events constitute no disparity in impacting the health belief trends on Twitter, since nonscientific events, such as politicians' speeches, might not be endorsed by substantial evidence and could sometimes be misleading.

- Using Natural Language Processing to Identify and Classify Incidental Findings
- Abstract:
- Over the last few years there has been an explosion of deep learning research leading to quick development of very powerful algorithms that have found their way into every industry. There are a few major reasons why deep learning is particularly attractive for algorithm development. The algorithms can complete complex tasks with surprisingly high accuracy. Deep learning models, unlike machine learning models, automatically extract features that are important for the algorithms task. The deep learning community has established and open-sourced high quality feature extractors and classifier architectures with weights included for most data domains. Lung cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the US and globally. Lung cancers are conditions that include a silent phase during which intervention is highly effective, but patients are asymptomatic so there is no indication for an exam. It is common that patients with symptoms unrelated to a forming cancer get imaging to work-up their current illness. During these times an incidental nodule in the lungs may be captured and a radiologist may recommend a follow-up, but there are few mechanisms in place to ensure that these patients have their follow-up completed. As a point of quality control, NM would like to maximize the likelihood that a patient with an incidentally noted lung nodule with follow-up recommendations will receive appropriate follow-up. In order to meet this goal, we have developed an EHR ready artificial intelligence pipeline that identifies reports containing text suggesting a lung nodule requiring follow-up. We find that upon retrospective review, we are able to use machine learning to capture reports containing lung nodules requiring follow-up with a sensitivity of 87% and specificity of 87%.

- Title:
- Using mechanical testing to assess the effect of prosthetic socket texturing on longitudinal suspension to reduce pistoning
- Abstract:
- To function effectively, a lower limb prosthetic socket must remain securely coupled to the residual limb during walking, running and other activities of daily living; this coupling is referred to as suspension. When this coupling is insufficient longitudinal pistoning of the socket relative to the residual limb occurs. Increasing friction of the socket/liner interface may improve socket suspension and textured sockets may be fabricated relatively easily with 3D printing. The aim of this study was to investigate longitudinal displacement of sockets with different types of textures under two suspension conditions: passive suction and active vacuum. In order to do this, we developed a mock residual limb and mechanical testing protocol. Prosthetic sockets, 14 textured sockets and an Original Squirt-Shape (OSS) Socket, were fabricated from polypropylene copolymer using the Squirt-Shape 3D Printer and compared to a smooth socket thermoformed from polypropylene copolymer. Sockets were mounted onto a dual durometer mock residual limb and subjected to four levels of distraction forces (100 N, 250 N, 500 N and 650 N) using a hydraulic material testing system. There was a statistically significant three-way interaction between suspension, force level and texture (p < 0.0005). Longitudinal displacements between textured and reference sockets, for all force levels and both suspension conditions, were significantly different (p < 0.0005). Using these newly developed mechanical testing protocols, it was demonstrated that texturing of polypropylene copolymer sockets fabricated using Squirt-Shape significantly decreased longitudinal displacements compared to a smooth socket. However, none of the novel textured sockets significantly reduced longitudinal displacement compared to the OSS socket under passive suction suspension.

- Title:
- Using mechanical testing to assess texturing of prosthetic sockets to improve suspension in the transverse plane and reduce rotation
- Abstract:
- Creating a secure and comfortable linkage between the residual limb and prosthetic socket in persons with lower limb amputation is a critical factor for successful rehabilitation, including ambulation and other activities of daily living. Unwanted rotation within the socket can be a clinical problem for prosthesis users. One way of addressing issues experienced with transverse plane control of the socket may be through increased friction interface forces. It has been proposed that friction at the residual limb/socket interface may be increased by adding texture to interface components. Three-dimensional (3D) printing may be used to fabricate sockets with texture patterns added to the inner socket surface. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of socket texturing on transverse plane rotation of the socket on a mock residual limb under two suspension conditions: passive suction and active vacuum. To conduct this study, we developed a mechanical testing protocol as no standardized tests currently exist to assess prosthetic sockets. Sockets with 14 different texture patterns were fabricated using the Squirt-Shape 3D printer. Textured sockets were compared to an Original Squirt-Shape (OSS) socket and a smooth thermoformed socket. Sockets were fitted with a mock residual limb and bi-axially loaded to 350 N compression with simultaneous rotation (2.5, 5 and 7.5) using a custom rotation assembly attached to a uniaxial hydraulic material testing system. There was a statistically significant three-way interaction between suspension, angle and texture (p < 0.0005). Torques between textured and reference sockets, for all rotation angles and both suspension conditions, were significantly different (p < 0.0005). Using newly developed testing protocols, it was demonstrated that some texture patterns significantly increased torque (i.e., resistance against unwanted rotation) in the transverse plane compared to both OSS and smooth sockets, especially for passive suction. Rotation testing of sockets may provide insight into socket design to improve suspension in the transverse plane.

- Using Implementation Science to Guide the Integration of Evidence-Based Family Interventions into Primary Care
- Original Bibliographic Citation:
- Smith JD, Polaha J. Using implementation science to guide the integration of evidence-based family interventions into primary care. Fam Syst Health. 2017;35(2):125-135.
- Abstract:
- In this article, we demonstrate how an implementation science (IS) framework is coupled with the measurement of implementation outcomes to effectively integrate evidence-based family interventions in primary care. The primary care environment presents a number of challenges for successfully integrating such interventions. However, IS methods can improve the prospect of successfully implementing a new intervention while simultaneously and rigorously evaluating the impact on salient outcomes. We use our experiences across two pilot trials where the Family Check-Up, an evidence-based family intervention, was integrated into primary care. In these pilot trials, the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment (EPIS) framework and the Proctor et al. taxonomy of implementation outcomes were used to guide the implementation and evaluate its success. Grounding our presentation in our pilot work offers an illustration of applying the EPIS framework and outcomes measurement to real-world problems and contexts. When embarking on new efforts to integrate behavioral interventions into healthcare settings, the application of IS frameworks and measurement strategies can create generalizable knowledge that substantively contributes to a sparse literature. Today, those in the trenches who are translating evidence-based interventions to their setting can contribute to the corpus of research in integrated care by using IS methods to plan a new program and evaluate its feasibility, adoption, and reach.

- Using Alternative Metrics in the NIH Biosketch
- Description:
- This presentation was given on Monday, September 25, 2017 at 2:00 pm (CST), and again on Wednesday, September 27, 2017 at 10:30 am (CST). The 45 minute webinar was hosted by Altmetric.com to demonstrate the use of alternative metrics in the NIH biosketch.
- Abstract:
- With funders in the US, UK, and Europe demanding evidence of "broader impact," new metrics are required to showcase how your research is affecting your communities, key demographics (like patients or regulators), and research beyond your field. Traditional journal-based metrics like impact factor and citations take a long time to accrue and only speak to scholarly impact.Alternative metrics can help.Join us for a 40 minute overview of the NIH Biosketch requirements and how alternative metrics (not just Altmetric data) can be integrated in a meaningful way to demonstrate impact. The webinar will cover:A better understanding of what Altmetric data are and how they are capturedReal-life examples of using them to support funding applicationsStructured guidance on how they can help showcase success and help inform strategic planning within your institution

- Understanding Racial Disparities in Low Birth Weight
- Abstract:
- This paper summarizes the research on the epidemiology of low birth weight (LBW) births focusing on the evidence about disparities in low birth weight for Black infants in the US. Studies have continually shown that Black mothers and their infants are at higher risk for pregnancy-related complications such as LBW. LBW, a leading cause of infant death for this racial group, is associated with a multitude of risk factors, with the major two dimensions being health status and health care. Evidence suggests that the accumulation of chronic stress over a lifetime culminates in health problems for Black women, thus leading to the conditions for LBW to occur. There is growing acceptance of the context of societal and systemic racism that creates a toxic and harmful environment for Black mothers and how this results in physiological stress that directly causes infant and maternal mortality. Although racial disparities in low birth weight are widely known in the medical community, prevention requires addressing the harmful social conditions that underlie these inequitable outcomes. This paper focuses on the way in which Black women and infants are disproportionately burdened with the effects of LBW. It concludes by discussing how changes can, with careful consideration and implementation, drive efforts to protect the Black infants and mothers as part of a holistic, patient-centered approach.

- Understand success and challenges in adaptation and implementation of Quality Improvement Collaboratives to help End the HIV Epidemic in Namibia and Zimbabwe
- Abstract:
- Background: Improving HIV health care quality remains an unfulfilled goal necessary to both reduce mortality for people living with HIV and reach epidemic control. Although a common strategy, improvement collaboratives (ICs) are variably effective in improving quality and better understanding of their implementation and adaptation to local contexts is needed. We applied implementation science methods to study how Ministry of health-led ICs supported by UCSF-HEALTHQUAL were implemented in Namibia and Zimbabwe to support and accelerate improvement in the HIV care cascade including rapid uptake of ART and viral load suppression. Methods: We applied two implementation research frameworks, EPIS [Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, and Sustainment] and CFIR [Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research] to guide data collection and analysis for a retrospective mixed methods case study of the ICs. We conducted nine key informant interviews, field observations, and document review to identified implementation strategies contextual factors and implementation outcomes. Results were synthesized using content analysis and organized by EPIS stage. Results: Many implementation strategies for both countries were similar across the exploration, preparation and implementation stages, including alignment with national priorities and guidelines, leveraging existing relationships with stakeholders, QI capacity-building, and adaptations of IC components and data collection tools. Important contextual factors of both ICs were: national leadership, donor funding and country resources, baseline national and local QI knowledge, capacity and culture, existing implementation partnerships, data system integrity, and geography. All sites in both countries completed QI projects. Active peer-to-peer learning occurred; and improvement was demonstrated in many of the targeted measures. Implementation challenges encountered included data validity and quality, finite resources and staff turnover. Limited information was available for sustainment improvement, but both countries have scaled ICs, indicating longer term capacity in QI. Conclusions: Successful implementation of ICs involved adaptation to local context and other strategies which leveraged facilitating factors and addressed barriers with strong adoption and fidelity. Other key lessons included early stakeholder engagement, national leadership engagement, alignment with national priorities, and attention to developing QI capacity. These results can inform future efforts to accelerate improvement of HIV care and treatment through ICs in the region and improving quality more broadly.

- Abstract:
- For several decades there has been accumulating evidence implicating type I interferons (IFNs) as key elements of the immune response. Therapeutic approaches incorporating different recombinant type I IFN proteins have been successfully employed to treat a diverse group of diseases with significant and positive outcomes. The biological activities of type I IFNs are consequences of signaling events occurring in the cytoplasm and nucleus of cells. Biochemical events involving JAK/STAT proteins that control transcriptional activation of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) were the first to be identified and are referred to as canonical signaling. Subsequent identification of JAK/STAT-independent signaling pathways, critical for ISG transcription and/or mRNA translation, are denoted as non-canonical or non-classical pathways. In this review, we summarize these signaling cascades and discuss recent developments in the field, specifically as they relate to the biological and clinical implications of engagement of both canonical and non-canonical pathways.

- Trends of pertussis in Evanston, IL from 2006 to 2016
- Description:
- A Northwestern University Capstone Project
- Abstract:
- Background: Pertussis is a vaccine-preventable disease (VPD) that has been well-controlled since the implementation of vaccine programs in the 1940s. However, outbreaks and severe cases still happen throughout the US. Epidemiological data regarding cases of pertussis in smaller geographical areas, such as City of Evanston, IL is not always readily available. This study aims to thoroughly describe cases of pertussis in Evanston between 2006 and 2016.Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted using data collected from the Illinois National Electronic Surveillance System (INEDSS) from 2006 to 2016. Cases of pertussis were classified by case status, and descriptive statistics for demographics, clinical, and epidemiological variables were provided at a significance level of 0.05. Analysis of temporal trends and spatial distribution of cases in Evanston, IL was performed. Logistic regression was used to describe the association between immunization status at onset and number of symptoms. Results: A total of 214 cases of pertussis were analyzed. Of them 50% were women, 67% white, and 72% had a cough 14 days. Adolescents represented 57.5% (n=123) of the sample. Highest cumulative incidences are reported for 2014, 2015 and 2016. Association between up-to-date immunization schedule and number of symptoms was not statistically significant [OR=0.49 95%CI 0.20-1.21].Conclusion: Overall, there is an important variability in the characteristics of pertussis cases in Evanston, IL from 2006 to 2016. There was an increased incidence among adolescent when compared to other ages. No association was found between being updated in immunization schedule and number of symptoms among cases of pertussis in Evanston, IL.

- Title:
- Trends in Gun Shot Wound Related Emergency Department Visit in Illinois
- Abstract:
- Introduction: Gun violence is the lowest its been in the past 50 years across the US. However, the number of circulating guns is the highest its been, and gun violence endemics continue to exist in high crime cities like Chicago, with 2016 having one of the highest homicide rates in the citys history. Historically, gun crime was attributed to demographic risk factors, but recent research has suggested that social networks play a significant role in propagating gun violence and may serve as a crucial point of intervention.Study Aims: The study aims to utilize a novel hospital-based database to track the gun violence-associated burden on the healthcare system. Methods: The Illinois Hospital Association Health Care and Hospital Data Reporting Services (COMPdata) data for 159 non-federal hospitals was used to analyze trends in ED Gunshot Wound visits over a 27-month period. A Poisson regression was performed to identify Incidence rate ratio (IRR) of mortality and inpatient hospital admission from GSW-related ED visits. Results: The summer of 2016 recorded the greatest number of GSW-related ED visits, with August of 2016 having 389 visits. Overall, assault GSW accounted for 89.1% of all visits, with Cook County accounting for the greatest number of ED visits. There was no significant difference in mortality by patient groups, however, Hispanics and Medicaid/Medicare patient had significantly higher inpatient admission IRR. Discussion: Gun violence in Illinois is mostly attributable to spike and drops within the city of Chicago. Hospital data are one approach to track gun violence within the state of IL, and the ED can provide an important venue for addressing social risk factors associated with gun violence.
