How to apply variable selection machine learning algorithms with multiply imputed data: A missing discussion

Electronic health records and stratified psychiatry: bridge to precision treatment?

The use of a stratified psychiatry approach that combines electronic health records (EHR) data with machine learning (ML) is one potentially fruitful path toward rapidly improving precision treatment in clinical practice. This strategy, however, requires confronting pervasive methodological flaws as well as deficiencies in transparency and reporting in the current conduct of ML-based studies for treatment prediction. EHR data shares many of the same data quality issues as other types of data used in ML prediction, plus some unique challenges. To fully leverage EHR data's power for patient stratification, increased attention to data quality and collection of patient-reported outcome data is needed.
