Scientific Questions Being Studied

We are planning to explore disparities in healthcare access and utilization for patients with eye conditions across different demographic groups. We would like to evaluate risk of developing advanced/severe disease in different eye conditions, and understand how social determinants contribute to this risk while adjusting for other known risk factors. We are also interested in understanding the availability of social determinants of health data in this data repository compared to EHR clinical data warehouses alone.

Project Purpose(s)

  • Population Health

Scientific Approaches

We will build cohorts of patients with various eye diseases (i.e. diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusions, glaucoma, etc.). Then we will develop concept sets and extract data on outcomes (i.e. development of complications), as well as predictors including clinical data and social data. We will draw on survey data and EHR data within All of Us. When genomic data and wearable data become available, we are interested in evaluating those data sources as well. We will use statistical modeling and machine learning to generate predictive models.

Anticipated Findings

We anticipate that there may be differential risk for developing complications based on disparities in healthcare access and utilization for patients with eye conditions.

Demographic Categories of Interest
