Papers to Appear





Cover image: Diseases can be interconnected. The study by Hao Mei, Ruofan Jia, Guanzhong Qiao, Zhenqiu Lin, and Shuangge Ma, in the article “Human disease clinical treatment network for the elderly: Analysis of the Medicare inpatient length of stay and readmission data,” uniquely examines disease interconnections from A clinical treatment perspective. Medicare data is analyzed. In this plot, a node represents a Clinical Classifications Software (CCS) defined disease. Two nodes are connected with an edge if their length of stay and/or readmission are correlated. The size of a node is proportional to its importance in this disease network. Different colors correspond to different disease groups, which are composed of diseases tightly interconnected. Overall, this figure and study can advance our understanding of disease interconnections.
