EULAR points to consider for the use of big data in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases.
Tremendous opportunities for health research have been unlocked by the recent expansion of big data and artificial intelligence. However, this is an emergent area where recommendations for optimal use and implementation are needed. The objective of these European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) points to consider is to guide the collection, analysis and use of big data in rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders (RMDs). ⋯ These EULAR points to consider discuss essential issues and provide a framework for the use of big data in RMDs.
