Federated learning for predicting clinical outcomes in patients with COVID-19
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Federated learning (FL) is a method used for training artificial intelligence models with data from multiple sources while maintaining data anonymity, thus removing many barriers to data sharing. Here we used data from 20 institutes across the globe to train a FL model, called EXAM (electronic medical record (EMR) chest X-ray AI model), that predicts the future oxygen requirements of symptomatic patients with COVID-19 using inputs of vital signs, laboratory data and chest X-rays. EXAM achieved an average area under the curve (AUC) >0.92 for predicting outcomes at 24 and 72 h from the time of initial presentation to the emergency room, and it provided 16% improvement in average AUC measured across all participating sites and an average increase in generalizability of 38% when compared with models trained at a single site using that site's data. For prediction of mechanical ventilation treatment or death at 24 h at the largest independent test site, EXAM achieved a sensitivity of 0.950 and specificity of 0.882. In this study, FL facilitated rapid data science collaboration without data exchange and generated a model that generalized across heterogeneous, unharmonized datasets for prediction of clinical outcomes in patients with COVID-19, setting the stage for the broader use of FL in healthcare.

The Essentials and Scenario 2 sections recommend chest imaging for certain COVID-19 presentations, supporting the claim that imaging is indicated by guidance. But the Methods section says the recommendations do not specify CXR over CT and leave modality choice to clinical teams. The paper notes CXR’s portability, not that it is widely available.

The 'Decentralized data and federated machine learning' section discusses challenges in updating a central model, but does not address batch normalization. Searches for batch normalization and heterogeneous client data found no passage linking BN to divergence between client sites. The decision to fix the feature-extraction model is presented as the citing authors' own response, not as a finding attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.72)

The authors state this as an assumption.
Oxygen delivered to a patient is equivalent to the patient's oxygen need.
“It is assumed that oxygen delivered to the patient equates with the oxygen need.”
The paper relies on this without support.
In the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, many patients received high-flow oxygen prophylactically regardless of their oxygen need.
“However, in the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, many patients were provided high flow oxygen prophylactically, regardless of their oxygen need.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The clinical labels for oxygen support requirements accurately reflect the patients' true clinical states.
“The final output was a continuous value in the range of 0 – 1 for both the 24 hour and 72-hour predictions, corresponding to the labels described above”
The paper relies on this without support.
The test datasets at each site are independent and representative of the target populations.
“After the FL training finishes, the best local models and the best global model are automatically shared with all client-sites and evaluated on their local test data.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The CORISK thresholds derived at MGB are applicable to other populations.
“The EXAM score can be used in the same way.”

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
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.
