Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to formalize the stages of diagnostic and therapeutic measures in the design of computer decision support systems in medicine. Functional, structural and mathematical models of diagnostic and treatment measures are developed with the aim of increasing the efficiency of medical services and minimizing the risks of medical errors. Analysis of diagnosed states in the space of medical actions allowed developing a method of hierarchical clustering of diagnoses in the space of medical actions and substantiating the threshold values of permissible uncertainties in the diagnostic decision rule.
