To this end, we instituted a holistic data science platform across an academic health care system that enables machine intelligence to augment the curation of phenotypes and outcomes from 15.2 million EHR clinical notes and associated 3 million lab tests from 1,192 COVID-19positive (COVIDpos) and 47,344 confirmed COVID-19-negative (COVIDneg) patients over a retrospectively defined 2-month observation period straddling the date of the PCR test (see Methods). Conversely, platelet counts were lower in the COVIDpos cohort at the time of clinical presentation but tended to increase over the subsequent 10 days to levels significantly higher than those in COVIDneg patients (Cohen's D = 0.361, BH-adjusted Mann-Whitney p-value = 0.008, Table 2, Figure 2B ). ./cache/cord-158252-l43ztxsl.txt ./txt/cord-158252-l43ztxsl.txt
