Leveraging time-series electronic health records with large language models for chronic kidney disease diagnosis in primary care
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) presents a growing public health challenge in China, exacerbated by low patient awareness and limited nephrology resources. This study evaluated the potential of large language models (LLMs) to support CKD diagnosis in primary care using time-series electronic health record (EHR) data. Longitudinal data were extracted from the EHR system of Weinan, China. Among 29 963 adults meeting inclusion criteria, 2300 participants were randomly sampled to generate clinical vignettes. CKD status…
Using one month of health records from 2300 sampled adults in Weinan, China, an AI chatbot diagnosed chronic kidney disease with 87.0% accuracy, 89.1% sensitivity and 86.8% specificity.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1152 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
