TL;DR
With the right approach, data mining can discover unexpected side effects and drug interactions that need to be addressed in the context of clinical practice.

Better than tarot cards or crystal balls, the authors show that intricate analyses of observational clinical data can improve physicians’ ability to predict the future—at least with respect to as yet uncharacterized adverse drug effects and interactions.

An association metric is developed to prioritize those new off-targets that explained side effects better than any known target of a given drug, creating a drug–target–adverse drug reaction network and may have wide application to de-risking toxicological liabilities in drug discovery.
Robust discovery of local patterns
29 Citations2012Johan Hopstadius, G. Niklas Norén
This paper proposes a framework to detect local associations and characterise subset variability in high-dimensional data, which uses shrinkage observed-to-expected ratios and multiple stratification by one or two covariates at a time and uses covariate permutation to select stratification covariates and gauge the vulnerability to spurious associations.
