A scoping review was conducted to identify the types of information needed by gout patients. The findings of each included study were divided and analyzed according to the stages of the care delivery value chain. The results of the review were then used to create a gout information value chain as criteria for annotating the information deemed important for gout patients contained in publicly available patient education materials according to the stages of care delivery. The resulting annotations were used to develop a named entity recognition model capable of automatically labelling medical concepts from clinical notes by value chain stage. To identify concepts specifically relevant to gout patients, the concepts extracted from patient notes were used as candidate features in a phenotyping algorithm to identify concepts associated with gout flares. While this study was able to develop a model for identifying information relevant to gout flares, the findings suggest that there is information missing from patient education materials and their clinical notes that could be valuable to gout patients for self-management.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation, although an individual work, could not have been completed without the selfless support and constant encouragement of many people over the course of my academic career. I could have never completed this dissertation without each and every one of you that believed in me when I did not believe in myself. First, I want to specifically express my gratitude to Dr. Sujin Kim, who acted as my mentor and committee chair, for your commitment, support, and patient guidance throughout the entire process. I also greatly benefited from the constructive criticism and feedback provided by a flexible and helpful dissertation committee: Dr. Jeff Huber, Dr. Soohyung Joo, Dr. Ramakanth Kavuluru, and Dr. Debra Moser. Each of you challenged my thinking and provided valuable insights to improve this dissertation. In addition to all of the support and assistance I received from the faculty, staff, and fellow graduate students at the University of Kentucky, I am equally grateful to be the recipient of limitless support from family who continually encouraged and motivated me to continue my education. Thank you to my husband, Michael, for acting as a sounding board and providing critical technical assistance. All of the little things you do on a daily basis did not go unnoticed or unappreciated. Finally, my endless gratitude goes to all of my in-laws who provided childcare and other support throughout my many years of education. You all have helped me grow as a person and I am blessed to have you in my life. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS .................................................................................................................................... iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ...................................................................................................................................... iv LIST OF TABLES .............................................................................................................................................. vii LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................................................... viii CHAPTER 1.
