Benchmarking large language models for clinical data extraction from Portuguese medical notes in a university hospital
Extracting structured data from electronic health records (EHRs) remains a major challenge, particularly in non-English and resource-constrained healthcare systems. This study benchmarks multiple large language models (LLMs) for the automated extraction of structured clinical variables from Portuguese-language medical notes under limited computational resources. We evaluated five LLMs (GPT-4o mini, DeepSeek-V3, Mixtral-8x7B, LLaMA 8B, and Qwen-32…
Multidimensional effects of HTLV-1 on well-being
INTRODUCTION: Human T-cell lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV-1) is associated with significant health challenges, including a high prevalence of depression and a reduced quality of life (QoL). We aimed to investigate associations between HTLV-1 infection status (uninfected, asymptomatic, or HAM/TSP), depression, and different QoL domains across the QoL. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 171 participants: 26 uninfected controls, 91 HTLV-1-infe…
IRT/IRT as a newborn cystic fibrosis screening method
The Brazilian Unified National Health System (SUS) has incorporated newborn screening for cystic fibrosis since 2001. The protocol involves two samples of immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT1/IRT2). This study aims to analyze fixed and floating values at the first and second IRT (IRT1/IRT2) cutoff points and assess the accuracy of the IRT/IRT methodology in a population from Northeastern Brazil. Descriptive, individual-level data from the newborn scr…
Impact of depression on quality of life in people living with human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) in Salvador, Brazil
P2-374 Behaviour problems and overweight adolescents
It is well-recognised that obesity is a complex, multifactorial condition which includes both genetic and environmental factors. Although it is controversial, there is evidence that behavioural problems and being overweight are associated. Furthermore, relatively few studies have analysed the role of resilience in this relationship. Objective To analyse the association between behaviour problems (BP) and the overweight condition (OW) among adoles…
