Problem: Generic Search Results
Question: I’m taking Tamoxifen. What can I expect?
Answer:
− absent, missed, or irregular menstrual periods
− bladder pain
− blindness
− ….…………...… blah blah …………………..
− confusion
− cough
− …………...… more blah blah ……………….
− vomiting
− yellow eyes or skin
Because:
− It’s on the damn label, stupid!
Without AIcope
Eeh,all
right...
Solution: Patient Records + Open
Knowledge Graphs
AIcope
knowledge base
Solution: Similarity-Based
Personalised Search
Question: I’m taking Tamoxifen. What can I expect?
With AIcope
Aah, I
see!
Answer:
− rapid weight gain (40%)
− fast heart beat (20%)
− slow heart beat (20%)
− ……… lots of blah blah (1-5%) …………….
Because:
− Quite a few patients similar to you did gain
weight while they were on Tamoxifen.
− You’re taking Perindopril as well, which may
lead to irregular heartbeat when combined
with Tamoxifen.
