Using AI-derived computerized techniques, we have modeled the large amount of online Reddit conversations exchanged among patients discussing around the prescriptions to take prenatal medical tests (both invasive and non-invasive). Our study has revealed that a patient’s decision to take a specific test (thus possibly suffering medical implications) might significantly have a direct causal influence on her general everyday mood. Preliminary experimental results achieved exploiting the Granger causality analysis technique are discussed at length.

Abstract
Using AI-derived computerized techniques, we have modeled the large amount of online Reddit conversations exchanged among patients discussing around the prescriptions to take prenatal medical tests (both invasive and non-invasive). Our study has revealed that a patient’s decision to take a specific test (thus possibly suffering medical implications) might significantly have a direct causal influence on her general everyday mood. Preliminary experimental results achieved exploiting the Granger causality analysis technique are discussed at length.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
