Designing and implementing an electronic patient registry to improve warfarin monitoring in the ambulatory setting.
The researchers designed and implemented an electronic registry in conjunction with a complementary work flow that established an active tracking system leading to improved treatment monitoring for patients on anticoagulation therapy. For the cohort of the 357 patients in the registry, the no-show rate decreased from 31 percent (preimplementation) to 21 percent (postimplementation).

Toward a complete dataset of drug-drug interaction information from publicly available sources.
The researchers combined all the publicly available sources of potential drug-drug interaction information using a common data model after conducting a comprehensive and broad search. They examined the overlap between and across the data sources. Their analysis determined that there was little overlap and that there is heterogeneity between the information provided by each source.
