KGRD: a knowledge-graph-augmented automated reasoning framework for diagnosis and counselling of paediatric rare genetic disorders.
AI system helps diagnose rare genetic disorders in children by combining medical knowledge with reasoning, addressing severe specialist shortages.
KGRD is a knowledge-graph-augmented automated reasoning framework that combines biomedical knowledge graph inference with large language model generation to support differential diagnosis and genetic counselling for paediatric rare genetic disorders. The system demonstrated clinically relevant diagnostic accuracy and counselling quality in prospective validation, directly addressing a critical unmet need where paediatric genetics specialist access is severely limited.
