System and method for medical treatment hypothesis testing using relative likelihood of treatment results

摘要

A computer-implemented system and method of evaluating the effects of medical treatments, the method including receiving patient record data; identifying relevant characteristics for evaluation; identifying a first treatment; identifying a second treatment; assigning a weight to each patient case; determining the relative likelihood, using the assigned weights, that an identified treatment will result in an identified effect when contrasted with a second identified treatment; and, outputting this estimated relative likelihood.
