Dr. Prasad Patil joins us to discuss his article, “Using decision tree models and comprehensive statewide data to predict opioid overdoses following prison release” published in the June 2024 (Vol. 94) issue of Annals of Epidemiology. In this study, the researchers employed decision tree models to predict opioid overdose within 90 days of release from Massachusetts state prisons, as well as identified a variety of factors that were most influential in predicting opioid overdose.
