Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVES: To determine the prevalence of missing data in the medical registers held by the physicians of Bamako's community health centres, and identify physicians' characteristics associated with the prevalence. METHODOLOGY: A cross-sectional and exploratory study was conducted between January and February 2011. The study population consisted of doctors, and data from their medical consultations. The sample was selected using three-stage sampling. Data were collected through closed-ended questionnaire and record counting. Data analysis was descriptive and analytic. RESULTS: The study involved 32 doctors and data from 3072 medical consultations. Physicians were predominantly male (87.5%). The prevalence of missing data ranged from 0.1% to 95.4% and was higher for diagnoses (15.5%), treatments (17.3%) and observations (95.4%). Missing diagnoses were determined by the number of years in the position, and the number of years of service. Missing treatments were determined by data management training, the number of years in the position and the number of years of service. CONCLUSION: The extent of missing diagnoses, missing treatments and missing observations raise doubts on the quality of health information, effectiveness of health decisions and effectiveness of health interventions.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
