ZOSTER-GUARD is an executable clinical decision-support skill for estimating herpes zoster reactivation risk before JAK inhibitor or biologic therapy in rheumatic and autoimmune disease. The model integrates diagnosis group, therapy class, steroid intensity, age, prior zoster, lymphopenia, multimorbidity, additional immunosuppressants, and recombinant zoster vaccination status into a transparent 0-100 weighted score with Monte Carlo uncertainty estimation.

We provide causal evidence that conditional cash transfers increase vaccination rates by 19 percentage points when disbursed via mobile phones: evidence from pakistan. Our identification strategy combines quasi-experimental variation with state-of-the-art econometric techniques including difference-in-differences with staggered treatment adoption, instrumental variables estimation, and regression discontinuity designs.

Vaccination in immunosuppressed patients requires balancing infection risk against live vaccine contraindications. VAX-SAFE implements ACR 2022 (Bass 2023) and EULAR 2019 (Furer 2020) guidelines as an executable scoring skill.

Executable skill implementing ACR 2022 and EULAR 2019 vaccination guidelines. 8 categorical inputs.

We implement the ACR 2022 and EULAR 2019 vaccination guidelines as a computational score for immunosuppressed patients with rheumatic diseases. Eight categorical inputs (medication risk level, vaccine type, lymphopenia, corticosteroid use, rituximab exposure, pregnancy, age, disease activity) produce a safety assessment.
