• Title: CPLLM: Clinical Prediction with Large Language Models
• Authors: Ofir Ben Shoham, Nadav Rappoport,
• Abstract summary: We present a method that involves fine-tuning a pre-trained Large Language Model (LLM) for clinical disease and readmission prediction. For diagnosis prediction, we predict whether patients will be diagnosed with a target disease during their next visit or in the subsequent diagnosis, leveraging their historical diagnosis records. Our experiments have shown that our proposed method, CPLLM, surpasses all the tested models in terms of PR-AUC and ROC-AUC metrics.

• Abstract: We present Clinical Prediction with Large Language Models (CPLLM), a method that involves fine-tuning a pre-trained Large Language Model (LLM) for clinical disease and readmission prediction. We utilized quantization and fine-tuned the LLM using prompts. For diagnosis prediction, we predict whether patients will be diagnosed with a target disease during their next visit or in the subsequent diagnosis, leveraging their historical diagnosis records. We compared our results to various baselines, including RETAIN, and Med-BERT, the current state-of-the-art model for disease prediction using temporal structured EHR data. In addition, We also evaluated CPLLM for patient hospital readmission prediction and compared our method's performance with benchmark baselines. Our experiments have shown that our proposed method, CPLLM, surpasses all the tested models in terms of PR-AUC and ROC-AUC metrics, showing state-of-the-art results for diagnosis prediction and patient hospital readmission prediction. Such a method can be easily implemented and integrated into the clinical process to help care providers estimate the next steps of patients

  Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a crucial factor in determining the initial treatment for patients with lung cancer. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have garnered significant attention due to their remarkable text generation capabilities. We propose a novel ensemble method that combines the medical knowledge acquired by LLMs with the latent patterns identified by machine learning models.
