The high level of categorization for medical issues using ICD-10 codes from James work to classify over 77 million FDA reaction outcomes @Cameron Rentch.

Ryan Vaspra (https://themedialaboratory.slack.com/team/UJF2W0EB1)

@James Scott , this is perfect for classifying the reactions. <pre><code> RANGE TOPIC </code></pre> • A00-B99 Certain infections and parasitic diseases • C00-D49 Neoplasms • D50-D89 Diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism • E00-E89 Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases • F01-F99 Mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders • G00-G99 Diseases of the nervous system • H00-H59 Diseases of the eye and adnexa • H60-H95 Diseases of the ear and mastoid process • I00-I99 Diseases of the circulatory system • J00-J99 Diseases of the respiratory system • K00-K95 Diseases of the digestive system • L00-L99 Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue • M00-M99 Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue • N00-N99 Diseases of the genitourinary system • O00- O9A Pregnancy, childbirth, and puerperium • P00-P96 Certain conditions originating in the perinatal period • Q00-Q99 Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities • R00-R99 Symptoms, signs, and abnormal clinical laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified • S00-T88 Injury, poisoning, and certain other consequences of external causes • V00-Y99 External causes of morbidity • Z00-Z99 Factors influencing health status and contact with health services

@James Scott, great meeting today. @Cameron Rentch, quick update on status:

Corp. Financials + FDA Approved Drugs + FDA Adverse Reactions data set has been matched against WHO ICD-10 codes with some nice new columns describing the adverse reactions in a much more medically digestable set of 21 columns: a. numberoflifetheartenings b. certainconditionsoriginatingintheperinatalperiod c. certaininfectionsandparasiticdiseases d. congenitalmalformations,deformationsandchromosomalabnormalities e. diseasesofthebloodandblood-formingorgansandcertaindisordersinvolvingtheimmunemechanism f. diseasesofthecirculatorysystem g. diseasesofthedigestivesystem h. diseasesoftheearandmastoidprocess i. diseasesoftheeyeandadnexa j. diseasesofthegenitourinarysystem k. diseasesofthemusculoskeletalsystemandconnectivetissue l. diseasesofthenervoussystem m. diseasesoftherespiratorysystem n. diseasesoftheskinandsubcutaneoustissue o. endocrine,nutritionalandmetabolicdiseases p. externalcausesofmorbidity q. factorsinfluencinghealthstatusandcontactwithhealthservices r. injury,poisoning,andcertainotherconsequencesofexternalcauses s. mental,behavioralandneurodevelopmentaldisorders t. neoplasms u. pregnancy,childbirth,andpuerperium v. symptoms,signs,andabnormalclinicallaboratoryfindings,notelsewhere_classified
While we await the NDA for Merative Rx data, James is looking into MDL Panel and then CDC / Census.gov data to link up through Pharma Company and Pharma Drug names to explore
When matching ICD-10 codes at the granular level, our dataset showed some good matching on adverse reactions and some bad. (e.g. FDA listed "Stress" as "Stress Facture" under ICD-10, but that likely means "Neurological Issues: Stress & Anxiety" so we are looking on UpWork.com for medical pros that could take a spreadsheet and tell us where matches are "bad" and give us a better ICD-10 code. We'll get a cost quote soon.
MDL Panel PACER system has an API. We are exploring that as well to get "Legal Matters" data, which WILL have geo/location data, that once tied back to the Drugs, we may have a way to back-into locational insights. https://pacer.uscourts.gov/help/pacer/pacer-case-locator-pcl-api-user-guide

@Cameron Rentch, morning. So James and I are hiring an UpWork.com medical professional to review the AI results for taking FDA Adverser Reactions in medical and substance terms and matching them for us to "train the AI how to better categorize". There is a spreadsheet like above we are giving an experienced medical professional (subject matter expert) to review, correct so that @James Scott can futher train and categorize the millions of reactions in our FDA dataset into the above a to v bullets as accurately as possible with natural language processing and matching. The contract to complete the one time task is $1000.00 that I've approved for James to get this done. A much easier and faster and affordable method than hiring or contracting some medical professional.

Then we are moving into looking at CDC, Census and MDL datasets next.

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

@Cameron Rentch , again this NDA is just to ensure it’s used for marketing purposes and to get the data dictionary and the quote. Let us know.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-02-20 13:01:38

@Cameron Rentch, updates on AI project. Please advise.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @James Scott 🍰 🥳 🎂

MDL / PACER help from Michael Brunet for Legal Matters dataset learnings to integrate into our model as a primary object (e.g. Pharma companies, drugs, reactions, etc.)
NDA review for Merative Rx data with Brunet
IDC-10 project - Medical SME project for $1000 is complete. @James Scott retrained the model to organize the FDA Adverse Reactions according to the WHO IDC-10 codes. James and I agreed to weight the below 2 columns more than all others, since death and birth injuries are the highest valued settlements. a. numberoflifetheartenings b. certainconditionsoriginatingintheperinatalperiod
CDC data dictionary - @James Scott going to look at how to pivot data to be able to relate / match it to our current datasets and let me know later.
Hiring: AI Application Engineer for Shellie / Cameron / Recruiter - @James Scott will send the job requirements and I'll reach out to you @Cameron Rentch, Shellie and Recruiter once received and put into the SL format. This person's 100% focus will be creating the AI commercial MVP "minimum viable product" as we iterate with more, new, data and enhance our ranking, classifying and soon-predicting Tortelligence.ai / .com

@James Scott from Gemini:

Give me the legal case file preparation workflow to prepare for a litigation or trial for settlement from the plaintiff perspective While I cannot offer legal advice, I can provide you with a general overview of the legal case file preparation workflow for a plaintiff seeking settlement through litigation or trial. It's important to understand that this is a complex process and may vary depending on the specific facts and jurisdiction of your case. Consulting with an experienced attorney is crucial to navigate the legal nuances and ensure your case is prepared effectively.

Initial Steps:

~Gather evidence: Collect all relevant documents, such as contracts, medical records, witness statements, emails, and photographs, that support your claims. Organize and categorize them for easy retrieval.~
Research the law: Understand the relevant laws and legal precedents that apply to your case. This might involve legal research databases or consulting with an attorney.
Develop your legal theory: Define the legal basis for your claim and how you intend to prove it. This involves identifying the specific laws and legal principles that your case hinges on.
Identify witnesses: Compile a list of potential witnesses who can corroborate your claims or provide relevant information. Gather their contact information and prepare them for potential depositions or testimony. Building the Case File:
Chronology of events: Create a timeline of events leading up to and including the incident you are suing over. This helps establish the sequence and context of your claims.
Demand letter: Consider sending a demand letter to the defendant outlining your claims and requesting compensation. This can sometimes lead to a settlement without formal litigation.
Complaint: If a settlement isn't reached, draft a complaint outlining your claims, legal basis, and desired outcome (damages or other relief). Consult with an attorney for proper formatting and legal accuracy.
Discovery: Participate in the discovery process, which involves exchanging information and evidence with the defendant. This might involve interrogatories, requests for production of documents, and depositions of witnesses.
Motions: Depending on the case, you might need to file motions to address legal issues, request specific evidence, or exclude certain information from the trial. Preparing for Settlement or Trial:
Settlement negotiations: Throughout the process, remain open to settlement negotiations with the defendant. Consider mediation or other alternative dispute resolution (ADR) options to reach an agreement outside of trial.
Trial preparation: If negotiations fail, prepare for trial. This involves rehearsing your testimony, preparing witnesses, and anticipating the defense's arguments. Working with an attorney is crucial for this stage.
Trial: If your case goes to trial, present your evidence and arguments to the judge or jury. Be prepared for cross-examination and rebuttal arguments from the defendant. Additional Considerations: • Timeline: Depending on the complexity of the case and the court's docket, the preparation and litigation process can take months or even years. • Costs: Preparing a legal case involves significant costs, including attorney fees, court fees, and expert witness fees. • Emotional toll: Litigation can be stressful and emotionally draining. Consider seeking support systems and managing your expectations. Remember, this is just a general overview. For specific legal advice and guidance tailored to your case, consult with a qualified attorney who can provide you with the best possible representation.

@Cameron Rentch, updates:

@Cameron Rentch Any update on the Levinson / Merative NDA?
@Cameron Rentch Any update on the Application Engineer job description?
@James Scott has gotten Census data organized to attach via our Adverse Events age and gender, plus CDC geos for matching adverse reactions that match CDC diseases tracked (the work around attempt w/o the Merative data to get more of the who, where and when)
Importantly, INSTEAD of paying the Federal PACER fees to access court records per page cost, James found this slick legal case data provider that is only $300 per month and cover the entire country. Going to approve this @Cameron Rentch for James to subscribe for $300 per months and it is a one-stop-shop for MDL and national legal matters, cases, dockets, etc.

@Cameron Rentch, very important update.

The original budget forecast for the AI project with Merative Rx data, and having to pay Google for Looker Embed, and DBT Enterprise feature had the total BI budget estimated at $305,000 on the low side.

With the learnings from research as I told you at dinner, we are leaving Merative off the road map for now, plus we are going to use the Looker Enterprise API to build the external portal with that Application Software Engineer with custom interface, so those costs have been subtracted.

However, UniCourt, our replacement for Merative that give us access to 170M plus USA court cases including MDL data is $300 per month for the web app UI, but is $27,000 paid annually for 12 months and we need this. The overall moves above have saved a total of $180,000 for a new total budget estimated at $120,000 (see image below).

@Cameron Rentch Requesting your approval for $27,000 billed to Shield for the UniCourt API data? @James Scott is working on a free trial now but he can get the data pipeline created and validated once we get the API license purchased.

@Ryan ask them if we can do a 6 month agreement/payment to test and ensure that the data and system is "Exactly what we need/want". We can sign the agreement for 27K but what if we get down the road and it isnt what we want?

good afternoon @Cameron Rentch and @Ryan I met with the unicourt team and was able to get the queries working here is an example of the number of court cases information for Pfizer. I will be building this out to include all drug manufactures in our ranking model, then i will also see if we can download the court documentation and search spefiically if these court documents contains the drugs in question

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

2024-03-18 17:50:25

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

2024-03-18 17:52:37

*Thread Reply:* that information would be when i search the individual documents and cases itself

*Thread Reply:* Ah, got it.

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

2024-03-18 17:56:18

*Thread Reply:* @Ryan that would be like another viewpoint in the dashboard so if a user clicks in they can view the specific court cases as a pdf? so as an example there are states where court documents download cost 1 dollar or 30 cents. so if we do allow users to view actual documentation there is a cost for each download we do as per the states requirements. so that could increase cost significantly

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-03-18 17:58:57

*Thread Reply:* So in our app, we’ll need a way to up charge them for that yeah

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-03-20 13:06:11

@Cameron Rentch, update from our latest meeting but UniCourt data hit the geo and demo jackpot! 👏:skintone4: and we are going to find out about PFS data costs above and beyond the $27K annual case data we get. (when we want to download PDFs from the courts to get granular details on a case or set of cases for either client-user needs or platform-data-needs for predictive model outputs in the platform we build.

All is looking good!

MEETING SUMMARY:

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-03-22 10:04:51

@James Scott, these PFSs are gold mines for data from UniCourt. Have you confirmed if PFS are always charged extra above and beyond the $27K data license?

@Ryan @Cameron Rentch so whatever documents the court has that are free we will also have, but there is a cost associated outside of the 27k that we would have with court documents that aren’t free of charge

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-03-22 11:59:28

@James Scott, good to hear. So next week lets see what more detail you pull from their API that is subordinate to the Court Case, specifically those PFS to get geo, demo and other claimant details. Plus the MDL side. Safe travels.

@here Just got off the phone with unicourt, i have the number of free documents download now in a database, have the correct file types to view for searching and extracting of the patients and the drug !! now i just have to create the parsing script and we will have that data available to us of all the people affected by particular drugs or drug manufactures and who took which drug and we would be done with it!

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

2024-04-25 10:27:18

@Ryan I havent scalled this yet to look at all drug manufactures, however with just pzifer it is a lot but i only need to focus in on a handful of files that says summons or citation. now if these files have the information we need and we only need to look at 1 file per case id, than we can scale this out to include the non free files, which on average i can see them costing 10-30 cents a download. moreover i see the pricing and some are even 21 dollars to download which is absolutely stupid but i can cater towards files under a certain monetary value to download for more data

@here so i had another call with unicourt today, I am getting our data tables stored with just about all case documents for pfizer, ones i do that then i will search the summons/complains files for the words associated with the drugs. this will give us a good baseline on how feasible searching these documents are. if i see from this test that these drugs names are present for over 10-20,000 cases than i think our poc would be done and i will expand this to search for more drug manufactures

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-05-01 20:48:09

@James Scott , got it. Excellent and keep me in the loop. I pushed the product research out a few days with continue the data modeling.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-05-15 15:19:03

@Cameron Rentch, so here is an update on the UniCourt API we mentioned several weeks back after we paid the $27K per year and agreed to let @James Scott work on Pfizer company and their Drugs List we got from our model ranking, which is 10,000 cases with 38 documents per case on average, to see how many APIs calls we would go over our monthly API call quota.

This again is for a "one time download and capture" of just Pfizer so that we can explore incremental cost to see if we SHOULD pay the $100K more to get ALL data in their database without the API calls pricing model.

Based on our full FDA Pharma and FDA Drug list attached to the Case Data, if we used the API call to get all drug cases with adverse reactions, we'll spend $380K to $500K. So, we'll stand pat on this API pricing model until Luke, James and me have the Looker Model Data dashboard ready to show you.

Goal is to get as much data for cheap as possible so that the future application will answer for many users what is "What Is The Next Big Mass Tort Coming?" and "What is the Opportunity Business Impact Prediction Look Like"?

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-06-03 14:54:01

@Cameron Rentch, dashboad for TortIntel.ai is WIP and coming along, but I am leaning in heavier this week forward now that Luke and Brian are truly handling the data warehouse development with me, Nick M. and James guidance.

@Luke Fontaine & @James Scott and I will make some great progress exploding the data out on several pages and get them ready for preview to you ASAP.

It’s fine yea I should be able to grab all the Mdl data now quickly since the code is all written from before put it in the new mdl tables and just add it to the dashboard like we discussed

What is the source field and endpoint in UniCourt ?

2024-07-12 15:56:42

What do u mean ?

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-07-13 05:51:36

For MDLs, what fields tell us when MDL?

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

2024-07-15 14:07:47

so i have it mostly done, the mdls is just a court idk, there is over 1000 total mdls, for all our 20 companies. i am getting there indiviual cases which is a lot better looking that our previous take on it, while developing the dash.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

@James Scott, excellent. Nice progress.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-07-15 14:11:33

Let me know when you think you'll have something to review, I'm coding up the financials and orders dashboard as we speak.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-07-23 11:17:38

@Cameron Rentch, FYI. For UniCourt, James and I will talk to them about some options on our $27K per year contract with 10,000 API calls per months, $0.13 call after 10,000 with a quarterly cap of 100,000 calls. We have exceeded that as James is getting the Drug Cases Data from them for the "existing" MDL mass torts as the prediction model for the "probable future" MDL mass torts needs as much of this data to drive the best predictions.

I'll get their recommendation (I know the $120K per year "all data with direct database connection into Snowflake" might be able to be prorated with our $27K, and this latest July overage bill of $13,000. But I'll bring that up and an intermediate option.

@James Scott is working on that and the dashboards so we can all three meet and go over the early rankings of the companies, drugs and adverse reactions.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-07-23 13:14:47

@James Scott, FYI. UniCourt is all 50 states and federal jurisdictions, so keep in mind Lex Machina being a portion of the USA State courts. Just wanted to get us familiar with the offerings in the marketplace.

2024-08-15 11:01:58

@James Scott, sent invite for 1PM your time to discuss the latest version of the model and MDL Historical and MDL Predicted tables for the dashboard.

FYI @Cameron Rentch, let us know on the above travel schedules for the Tortelligence.ai demo please. Need to book travel.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-09-19 11:06:38

@James Scott, Cam asked to move our meeting for AI dashboard to tomorrow at 11AM PT / 1PM CT / 2 PM ET. Let us know if that will not work.

James Scott (jamesscott@shield-legal.com)

@Cameron Rentch, can you get James and I a login for PACER? We want to explore it a bit more and see how to search for MDLs categorically.

Chat GPT says:

```To look up MDLs (Multidistrict Litigation) on PACER (Public Access to Court Electronic Records), follow these steps:

*Go to PACER's Website*: Open https://pacer.uscourts.gov/>.
*Login to PACER*: You will need to log in to your PACER account. If you don't have one, you can register for an account on the site.
*Access Case Locator*:
- On the PACER homepage, click on *"Case Locator"* in the top menu. This takes you to the PACER Case Locator (PCL) page, which allows for a broader search across federal courts.
- You may also access the PCL directly via https://pcl.uscourts.gov.
*Search for MDL Cases*:
- Use the search feature to locate MDL cases. You can search by case number, party name, or nature of the lawsuit.
- To narrow down your search to MDL cases, you can use specific case numbers associated with known MDLs or look for cases marked as "MDL" under case types.
*Filter Results*:
- On the PACER Case Locator, you can refine your search by court, date range, case type, or even by selecting the "Multidistrict Litigation" filter if available.
*Review Case Information*:
- Once you find the relevant MDL case, you can click on the case number to view detailed case information, including filings, dockets, and documents (additional fees may apply).

If you're specifically looking for MDLs, you might also want to check the *Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (JPML)* website, which tracks and lists all MDLs across federal courts: https://www.jpml.uscourts.gov/>. The JPML site often provides more direct access to the list and status of active MDLs.```

2024-10-29 12:49:08

@James Scott remind me what I am supposed to be looking into?

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-10-29 14:00:04

@Cameron Rentch, getting us a login so we can explore using it for MDL Parent and Member Case look ups.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-10-31 13:37:05

@Cameron Rentch, status update. We are validating our data on Drug injuries analysis. @James Scott is writing a bot to crawl casetext.com so we can get get the "potential child cases" of a potential MDL and extract the people, attorneys, legal vaiability, etc. But we are making progress (see image).

When will you be in Vegas in early December?

@Cameron Rentch, James and I plan to travel to Las Vegas for 17th arrival and in-office, 18th in-office, 19th, travel. Let me and @James Scott know if that covers both our FDA MDL model demo and the leadership holiday activities?

Thanks!

*Thread Reply:* @James Scott, also, want me to get your hotel reservation? And lets try Aria this time, been giving it a fresh opportunity with the lame WIFI at Cosmo and some VIP service slip.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-12-02 13:32:08

*Thread Reply:* @James Scott, spoke to Cameron, plan for arrival on 17th or 16th, day of demo and dinnner likely to be 18th, Cam and us all leave on 19th. @Cameron Rentch will confirm and get me a new CC so I can get Aria reservations.

Ryan (ryan@themedialab.agency)

2024-12-09 10:53:46

@Cameron Rentch, after our SL end of month fins call, just need you for 15 minutes, as @James Scott wants to show you where we are with the demo data and dashboard.
