• Abstract summary: The mining of adverse drug events (ADEs) is pivotal in pharmacovigilance, enhancing patient safety. Traditional ADE detection methods are reliable but slow, not easily adaptable to large-scale operations. Previous ADE mining studies have focused on text-based methodologies, overlooking visual cues. We present a MultiModal Adverse Drug Event (MMADE) detection dataset, merging ADE-related textual information with visual aids.

• Abstract: The mining of adverse drug events (ADEs) is pivotal in pharmacovigilance, enhancing patient safety by identifying potential risks associated with medications, facilitating early detection of adverse events, and guiding regulatory decision-making. Traditional ADE detection methods are reliable but slow, not easily adaptable to large-scale operations, and offer limited information. With the exponential increase in data sources like social media content, biomedical literature, and Electronic Medical Records (EMR), extracting relevant ADE-related information from these unstructured texts is imperative. Previous ADE mining studies have focused on text-based methodologies, overlooking visual cues, limiting contextual comprehension, and hindering accurate interpretation. To address this gap, we present a MultiModal Adverse Drug Event (MMADE) detection dataset, merging ADE-related textual information with visual aids. Additionally, we introduce a framework that leverages the capabilities of LLMs and VLMs for ADE detection by generating detailed descriptions of medical images depicting ADEs, aiding healthcare professionals in visually identifying adverse events. Using our MMADE dataset, we showcase the significance of integrating visual cues from images to enhance overall performance. This approach holds promise for patient safety, ADE awareness, and healthcare accessibility, paving the way for further exploration in personalized healthcare.

  We propose a novel framework leveraging domain-specific medical knowledge as guiding signals to integrate language information into the visual domain through image-text contrastive learning. Our model includes global contrastive learning with our designed divergence encoder, local token-knowledge-patch alignment contrastive learning, and knowledge-guided category-level contrastive learning with expert knowledge. Notably, MLIP surpasses state-of-the-art methods even with limited annotated data, highlighting the potential of multimodal pre-training in advancing medical representation learning.

  Large language models (LLMs) have shown the potential to accelerate clinical curation via few-shot in-context learning. They still struggle with issues regarding accuracy and interpretability, especially in mission-critical domains such as health. Here, we explore a general mitigation framework using self-verification, which leverages the LLM to provide provenance for its own extraction and check its own outputs.

Third, we guide the model to put emphasis on the most critical information in images and texts by designing knowledge-induced pretext tasks.

  Drug-Target Affinity (DTA) is of vital importance in early-stage drug discovery. wet experiments remain the most reliable method, but they are time-consuming and resource-intensive. Existing methods have primarily focused on developing techniques based on the available DTA data, without adequately addressing the data scarcity issue. We present the SSM-DTA framework, which incorporates three simple yet highly effective strategies.

• Retrofitting Vector Representations of Adverse Event Reporting Data to Structured Knowledge to Improve Pharmacovigilance Signal Detection [6.644784804652259]
  Adverse drug events (ADEs) are prevalent and costly. Clinical trials are constrained in their ability to identify potential ADEs. Statistical methods provide a convenient way to detect signals from these reports but have limitations in leveraging relationships between drugs and ADEs. Aer2vec generates distributed vector representations of ADE report entities that capture patterns of similarity but cannot utilize lexical knowledge. We address this limitation by retrofitting aer2vec drug embeddings to knowledge from RxNorm and developing a novel retrofitting variant using vector rescaling to preserve magnitude.
