A.  Noteworthy Selection

  • Butte AJ, Kohane IS.  Creation and implications of a phenome-genome network.  Nature Biotechnology.  2006;24(1):55-62.  PMC2716377.

Demonstrated how NLP on experimental labels could be combined with systematic gene expression measurements across public databases to provide useful retaxonomization of disease. In many ways presaged the IOM report on Precision Medicine.

  • Kohane IS, Masys DR, Altman RA.  The incidentalome:  a threat to genomic medicine. J Am Med Assoc. 2006 Jul 12;296(2):212-5.  PMID: 16835427

Opened up the dialog of the clinical consequences of high throughput measurements in the absence of the kind of high-throughput population studies that i2b2 made possible. Widely cited in the lay press (e.g WSJ, NPR) as well as citations in the scholarly publications.

  • Murphy SN, Churchill SE, Bry L, Chueh H, Cai T, Weiss S, et al. Instrumenting the health care enterprise for discovery research in the genomic era.  Genome Res. 2009;360(13)1278-81.  PMC2752136.

Summarized the design features of i2b2 that allowed phenotyping and sample collection to occur two orders magnitude more rapidly and at a tenth of the cost.  In addition to scholarly citations, it helped lead to the adoption of i2b2 at over 72 major academic health centers internationally.

  • Weber GM, Murphy SN, McMurry AJ, Macfadden D, Nigrin DJ, Churchill S, Kohane IS. The Shared Health Research Information Network (SHRINE): a prototype federated query tool for clinical data repositories. J Am Med Inform Assoc. 2009 Sep-Oct;16(5):624-30.  PMC2744712.

Described how a distributed query system across multiple i2b2 instances allowed the sharing of patient study data across institutions nationwide in near-real-time while allowing each healthcare institution to maintain autonomous control of their own data.  In doing so, this publication provided the template for multiple SHRINE installations covering 8 to 60 institutions for a variety of large studies.

  • Cai C, Tian L, Lloyd-Jones D, Wei LJ.  Evaluating subject-level incremental values of new markers for risk classification rule. Biometrics. 2009.

In the original i2b2 publication we set ourselves the goal of reframing the evaluation of biomarkers which often, especially early in the genomic era, just described the performance characteristics of the biomarker itself and not with comparison to the best use of existing conventional clinical data. This manuscript is one of several our team published that developed a framework for understanding the incremental contribution to diagnostics (and progrnostics) of novel biomarkers.

  • Brownstein J, Murphy S, Goldfine A, Grant R, Sordo M, Gainer V, Colecchi J, Dubey A, Nathan, D, Glaser J, Kohane I.  Rapid identification of myocardial infarction risk associated with diabetic medications using electronic medical records.  Diabetes Care 2010 Mar;33(3):526-31.  PMC2827502.

After an earlier proof of concept publication showing the retrospective identification of Vioxx-associated increased cardiovascular disease burden, this publication demonstrated that i2b2 could be used in the midst of national controversies requiring a “big data” approach to pubic health. We identified and quantified the increased myocardial infarction risk of rosiglitazone (Avandia) relative to other drugs in the same class used for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. This publication was one of a handful cited by the FDA in the “black box”ing of the drug and its subsequent near-disappearance from the market

  • Tatonetti NP, Denny, JC, Murphy SN, Fernald GH, Krishnan G, Castro V, Yue P, Tsau PS, Kohane IS, Roden DM, Altman RB.  Detecting drug interactions from adverse-event reports: Interaction between paroxetine and pravastatin increases blood glucose leels.  Clin Pharm Therapeutics.  2011 Jun;90:133-42.   PMC3216673.

A demonstration of how EHR-based methods could go from a signal in an FDA database to validation in three academic health centers in less than 3 months.

  • Kohane, IS.  Using electronic health records to drive discovery in disease genomics.  Nat Rev Genet.  2011 Jun;12(6):417-428.  doi:10.1038/nrg2999.  PMID: 21587298

A summary of EHR-driven genomic disease research demonstrating the broad impact that i2b2 has had.

  • Mirny LA, Lander ES, Dekker J. Comprehensive mapping of long-range interactions reveals folding principles of the human genome. Science.  2009;326(5950):289-93.  PMC2858594.

An example from one of many of our core 1 computational biology resarchers (Mirny) that developed  novel biological insights using computational methods.

Demonstration that not only can i2b2 be used to perform cost-effective genetic studies but they a) reproduce prior studies and b) go beyond prior studies by including under-represented minorities (which are even more underrepresented in traditional cohort studies) and studying the genetics of both antibody positive and negative rheumatoid arthritis
