Montgomery's condition is not related to Cushing's syndrome, which is caused by excessive cortisol production.
5. Lou Gehrig (NHS No: 943 476 5919), a renowned baseball player, was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in 1939 at the Mayo Clinic. ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Gehrig's diagnosis was confirmed by his neurologist, Dr. Bell, who noted that the condition was not related to Bell's palsy, a temporary facial paralysis.

# Pteredactyl
_Pteredactyl utilizes advanced natural language processing techniques to identify and anonymize clinical personally identifiable information (cPII) in clinical free text. It is built on top of Microsoft's [Presidio](https://microsoft.github.io/presidio/) and allows interchange of various transformer models from [Huggingface](https://huggingface.co/)_
## Features
- Anonymization of various entities such as names, locations, and phone numbers as per our [Documentation](https://mattstammers.github.io/Pteredactyl)
- Support for processing both strings and pandas DataFrames
- Text highlighting for easy identification of anonymized elements
- Webapp with [Gradio](https://huggingface.co/spaces/MattStammers/pteredactyl_PII)
- cPII benchmarking test: [Clinical_PII_Redaction_Test](https://huggingface.co/datasets/MattStammers/Clinical_PII_Redaction_Test)
- Production API deployed using [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) and [Gradio](https://www.gradio.app/)
- Hide in plain site replacement or masking option
## Documentation
* Full documentation is available [here](https://mattstammers.github.io/Pteredactyl)
## PyPi Installation
Can be installed using pip from PyPi:
```bash
pip install pteredactyl
```

# Abstract
- Authors: Matt Stammers🧪, Cai Davis🥼 and Michael George🩺
- Version 1. 29/06/2024
Clinical patient identifiable information (cPII) presents a significant challenge in natural language processing (NLP) that has yet to be fully resolved but significant progress is being made [1,2].
This is why we created [Pteredactyl](https://pypi.org/project/pteredactyl/) - a python module to help with redaction of clinical free text.
Full [Documentation](https://github.com/MattStammers/Pteredactyl) for the project can be found [here](https://github.com/MattStammers/Pteredactyl)
## Background
We introduce a concentrated validation battery to the open-source OHDSI community, a Python module for cPII redaction on free text, and a web application that compares various models against the battery. This setup, which allows simultaneous production API deployment using Gradio, is remarkably efficient and can operate on a single CPU core.
### Methods:
We evaluated three open-source models from Huggingface: Stanford Base De-Identifier, Deberta PII, and Nikhilrk De-Identify using our Clinical_PII_Redaction_Test dataset. The text was tokenised, and all entities such as [PERSON], [ID], and [LOCATION] were tagged in the gold standard. Each model redacted cPII from clinical texts, and outputs were compared to the gold standard template to calculate the confusion matrix, accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score.
### Results
The full results of the tool are given below in <i>Table 1</i> below.
| Metric | Stanford Base De-Identifier | Deberta PII | Nikhilrk De-Identify |
|------------|-----------------------------|-------------|----------------------|
| Accuracy | 0.98 | 0.85 | 0.68 |

### Strengths
- The test benchmark [Clinical_PII_Redaction_Test](https://huggingface.co/datasets/MattStammers/Clinical_PII_Redaction_Test) intentionally exploits commonly observed weaknesses in NLP cPII token masking systems such as clinician/patient/diagnosis name similarity and commonly observed ID/username and location/postcode issues.
- [The Stanford De-Identifier Base Model](https://huggingface.co/StanfordAIMI/stanford-deidentifier-base)[1] is 99% accurate on our test set of radiology reports and achieves an F1 score of 93% on our challenging open-source benchmark. The others models are really to demonstrate the potential of Pteredactyl to deploy any transfomer model.
- We have submitted the code to [OHDSI](https://www.ohdsi.org/) as an abstract and aim strongly to incorporate this into a wider open-source effort to solve intractable clinical informatics problems.
### Limitations
- The tool was not designed initially to redact clinic letters as it was developed primarily on radiology reports in the US. We have made some augmentations to cover elements like postcodes using checksums but these might not always work. The same is true of NHS numbers as illustrated above.
- It may overly aggressively redact text because it was built as a research tool where precision is prized > recall. However, in our experience this is uncommon enough that it is still very useful.
- This is very much a research tool and should not be relied upon as a catch-all in any production-type capacity. The app makes the limitations very transparently obvious via the attached confusion matrix.
### Conclusion
The validation cohort introduced in this study proves to be a highly effective tool for discriminating the performance of open-source cPII redaction models. Intentionally exploiting common weaknesses in cNLP token masking systems offers a more rigorous cPII benchmark than many larger datasets provide.
We invite the open-source community to collaborate to improve the present results and enhance the robustness of cPII redaction methods by building on the work we have begun [here](https://github.com/SETT-Centre-Data-and-AI/PteRedactyl).
