• Scalable Identification of Clinically Relevant Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Documents in Large-Scale Electronic Health Record Datasets With a Lightweight Natural Language Processing Model: Retrospective Cohort Study (2026) · JMIR Medical Informatics · doi

  Future research should examine the applicability of the proposed framework across a broader range of diseases and clinical document types. Future research should explore the use of multi-institutional validation to assess the robustness and portability of the proposed framework. Future research should investigate the potential for using ML models to support clinical decision-making and improve patient outcomes.

• Machine learning to predict hospital admission at triage in paediatric emergency care: A meta-analysis (2026) · European Journal of Pediatrics · doi

  The paper suggests that future studies should address the limitations of the current study, including the small number of included studies and the high degree of heterogeneity among studies. The paper highlights the need for prospective validation of machine learning models in clinical practice. The paper suggests that future studies should investigate the use of machine learning models in other clinical settings.

  While early results are encouraging, clinical translation remains limited. These models, though, require prospective multicenter validation, and concerns about algorithmic bias, generalizability across different populations, and regulatory approval must be addressed before clinical implementation. 9.2 Machine learning prediction models learning
