Application of natural language processing techniques to identify off-label drug usage from various online health communities
ConclusionsThe method designed in this study identifies and extracts the semantic relationship between drugs and indications from demotic posts in OHCs. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using natural language processing techniques in identifying off-label drug usage across online health forums for a variety of drugs. Understanding patients ’ off-label use of drugs may be able to help manufacturers innovate to better address patients’ needs and assist doctors’ prescribing decisions.

Meeting them where they are on the web: addressing structural barriers for Latinos in telehealth care
AbstractAs we enter an era of health care that incorporates telehealth for routine provision of care, we can build a system that consciously and proactively includes vulnerable patients, thereby avoiding further exacerbation of health disparities. A practical way to reach out to Latino patients is to use media they already widely use. Rather than expect patients to adapt to suboptimal systems of telehealth care, we can improve telehealth for Latinos by using platforms already familiar to them and thereby refocus telehealth delivery systems to provide patient-centered care. Such care is responsive to patients ’ needs and ...
