Abstract

Early diagnosis of Turner syndrome enhances care, but in routine practice, even within larger referral centers, diagnosis is delayed. Our study examines the utility of an electronic health record algorithm in identifying patients at high risk for Turner syndrome. Six percent of those identified had missed diagnoses of Turner syndrome.

  • An algorithm-driven electronic health record approach found that 6% of girls with microarray data available had newly diagnosed TS.

    “The algorithm successfully found that 6% of girls with microarray data available had newly diagnosed TS, and that only 62% of girls with idiopathic short stature ever had a karyotype performed.”
  • Only 62% of girls with idiopathic short stature ever had a karyotype performed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
