Designing and validating a clinical decision support algorithm for diabetic nephroprotection in older patients by Simon LeClerc, Nicolas Fernandez, Kelley Kilpatrick, Cheryl Sadowski, Noor Alsalemi, Naoual Elftouh, Jean-Philippe Lafrance, Sherilyn Houle

“…The aim of this research is to design and validate a CDS algorithm for prescribing renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi) for older patients with diabetes.Methods The design of the CDS tool included the following phases: (1) gathering evidence from systematic reviews and meta-analyses of randomised clinical trials to determine the number needed to treat (NNT) and time-to-benefit (TTB) values applicable to our target population for use in the algorithm. (2) Building a list of potential cases that addressed different prescribing scenarios (starting, adding or switching to RAASi). (3) Reviewing relevant guidelines and extracting all recommendations related to prescribing RAASi for DKD. (4) Matching NNT and TTB with specific clinical cases. (5) Validating the CDS algorithm using Delphi technique.Results We created a CDS algorithm that covered 15 possible scenarios and we generated 36 personalised and nine general recommendations based on the calculated and matched NNT and TTB values and considering the patient’s life expectancy and functional capacity. The algorithm was validated by experts in three rounds of Delphi study.Conclusion We designed an evidence-informed CDS algorithm that integrates considerations often overlooked in CPGs. …”

Optimizing Fleet Size in Point-to-Point Shared Demand Responsive Transportation Service: A Network Decomposition Approach by Fudong Xie, Ce Wang, Housheng Duan

“…To solve this practical problem, we resort to the Model Predictive Control method (MPC) and propose a network decomposition approach that first converts the transportation network to a nodal tree structure and then develops a Nodal Tree Recourse with Dependent Arc Capacities (NTRDAC) algorithm to obtain the exact value of the expected recourse functions. …”
