Summary: This study presents the selection process of allergens for fitting the structure of WHO ICD-11 and provides a classification of allergens based on real-life relevance. A total of 1109 allergens (76.8%) were selected from a database of 1444, with an additional 297 relevant allergens chosen based on real-life data. The stepwise approach used in this study is essential for building a classification of allergens for the WHO ICD-11, and it has significant implications for clinical practice.

Summary: The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) serves as a common diagnostic and classification tool worldwide, aiming to improve the accuracy of mortality and morbidity statistics for allergic and hypersensitivity conditions. The recent change in hierarchy in ICD-11 has allowed for a dedicated section addressing these conditions, leading to more accurate classification and definitions. The implementation of ICD-11 was adopted at the 72nd World Health Assembly in May 2019.

Summary: The ICD-11 classification of personality disorders represents a paradigm shift in diagnosis, abolishing all previous categories except for a general description of personality disorder and allowing for specification of severity. It describes patient behavior using five personality trait domains and shows alignment with the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders. Early evidence on the reliability and validity of the new model is promising, but wider adoption by clinicians in regular clinical practice is needed for its success.

Summary: The study evaluates the ability of the ICD coding tools to capture clinical terminology and proposes an improved classification system for subdural hematoma (SDH). The retrospective analysis of patients with SDH identified the need for a more specific classification system to capture important factors like chronicity and etiology. The proposed system distinguishes between different types of SDH and may enhance management and prognosis.

Summary: The term "Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS)" is considered inadequate and misleading for describing patients with persistent pain following spine surgery. The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) proposed "Chronic pain after spinal surgery (CPSS)" as a replacement term, which is now accepted by the World Health Organization (WHO). Through a structured workshop and Delphi process, "Persistent spinal pain syndrome" was selected as a preferred option and suggested for adoption to strengthen the new ICD-11 classification.

Summary: By analyzing the coding of electronic medical records at a pain clinic in Thailand using ICD-10 and ICD-11, it was found that ICD-11 provides more detailed diagnostic categories and is more suitable for clinical use, assisting in patient management, research, and resource allocation. Most patients in the pain clinic suffered from chronic cancer pain, chronic neuropathic pain, and chronic secondary musculoskeletal pain.

Summary: The World Health Organization’s international classification of disease version 11 (ICD-11) offers improved classification of patient safety events. Three suggestions for facilitating adoption of ICD-11 from a patient safety perspective have been identified. These include incorporating ICD-11 into patient safety monitoring approaches at all levels of healthcare leadership, incorporating ICD-11 into software solutions to enhance clinical and administrative workflows related to patient safety management, and adopting ICD-11 using a continuous improvement framework to strengthen existing initiatives and align safety efforts with post marketing surveillance of medical technologies.

Summary: Automated ICD coding is a multi-label prediction task in the deep learning regime. To mitigate the negative effects of large label sets and heavy imbalance distribution, a retrieve and rerank framework is proposed, which introduces Contrastive Learning (CL) for label retrieval and a Transformer variant for refining and reranking the candidate set. Experiments show that this framework provides more accurate results by preselecting a small subset of candidates before fine-level reranking.

Summary: This article proposes a disease classification based on the multiple phenotypes of adenomyosis and endometriosis, suggesting that they are different phenotypes of a single disease. The terms used for adenomyosis classification need to be organized and discussed to reach a consensus. Future directions are also proposed.

Summary: Effective public health surveillance requires consistent monitoring of disease signals. This paper introduces PetBERT, a large language model trained on veterinary electronic health records (EHRs) to enhance disease surveillance in veterinary medicine. PetBERT-ICD, an additional training, achieves high accuracy in automatically coding veterinary clinical EHRs, outperforming current strategies and detecting disease outbreaks up to 3 weeks earlier.

Summary: The manual process of assigning clinical codes to free-text clinical narratives is expensive, time-consuming, and error-prone. Researchers have explored the use of Natural Language Processing (NLP), machine learning, and deep learning methods to automate this process and improve accuracy and efficiency. This systematic literature review analyzes automated clinical coding systems that utilize NLP, machine learning, and deep learning methods to assign International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes to discharge summaries. The review identifies datasets, techniques, and trends in performance evaluation metrics. Efforts are needed to improve code prediction accuracy and access to large-scale de-identified clinical corpora.

Summary: This study compared the accuracy of clinical coding with ICD-11 and ICD-10, and identified the causes of coding errors. The results showed that the accuracy of clinical coding with ICD-11 was lower relative to ICD-10. Therefore, it is essential to carry out initial preparations, particularly the training of clinical coders based on their needs, as well as interventions to enhance the documentation of medical records according to ICD-11 before or simultaneous with the country-wide implementation.

Summary: This study compared the recurrence rate of endometrioma(s) after cystectomy versus CO2 laser vaporization of the cyst wall. The results showed similar recurrence rates between the two surgical techniques. For women wishing to preserve their reproductive potential, CO2 laser vaporization can be considered as a safe alternative to cystectomy.

Summary: Endometriosis is a chronic systemic disease that can greatly impact patients' quality of life. Diagnosing endometriosis is challenging, and various methods have their strengths and limitations. Currently, there is no single gold-standard diagnostic method, and different circumstances may require different diagnostic approaches.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the capacity of the change between Day 1 and Day 4 post-treatment serum hCG levels for predicting single-dose methotrexate treatment success in tubal ectopic pregnancy. The results showed that any fall in serum hCG on Days 1-4 signified an 85% likelihood of treatment success for women with tubal ectopic pregnancy managed with single-dose methotrexate.

Summary: The objective of this study was to assess the influence of the test-to-delivery interval on the performance of ultrasound and MRI in predicting birthweight. The results showed that MRI performed best in predicting birthweight greater than gestational age if delivery occurred within two weeks of the examination, with a slight decrease thereafter, while ultrasound performance decreased drastically over time.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate whether induction of labor is associated with a lower risk of cesarean section in patients with isolated polyhydramnios. The study found that planned induction was associated with a lower rate of cesarean delivery compared to expectant management, but the difference was not statistically significant. Additionally, no differences were observed in maternal or fetal secondary outcomes.
