Patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases frequently require 5-8 concurrent medications spanning DMARDs, biologics, glucocorticoids, NSAIDs, and supportive therapies. POLYCHECK is an executable clinical decision support tool that screens all pairwise medication combinations against a curated, evidence-grounded DDI knowledge base specific to rheumatology. It classifies interactions by severity (Contraindicated, Major, Moderate, Minor), provides pharmacokinetic mechanism annotation, generates a Composite Polypharmacy Risk Score (CPRS) with Monte Carlo uncertainty estimation, and outputs consolidated monitoring guidance. Implemented in pure Python with no external dependencies.

Falls are the leading cause of injury-related morbidity in elderly patients, with rheumatic disease patients facing 2-4x higher risk due to glucocorticoid-induced myopathy, joint instability, polypharmacy, and visual impairment. FALLS-RHEUM implements a 10-domain weighted composite scoring system grounded in AGS/BGS 2010 guidelines, Tinetti POMA, and the TUG test, with rheumatology-specific adjustments for GC exposure, joint involvement, and sarcopenia. Monte Carlo simulation (n=5000) provides 95% CIs. Generates actionable guideline-based recommendations.

RAYNAUD-WX is a computational clinical tool for predicting Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) attack frequency from real-time weather and environmental data, incorporating patient-specific risk factors with Monte Carlo uncertainty estimation. Raynaud's phenomenon, affecting 3-5% of the general population and up to 95% of systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients, is primarily triggered by cold exposure, yet no standardized tool exists to quantify weather-driven attack risk. We developed a weighted composite scoring system (0-100) integrating wind chill index (Environment Canada formula, 35% weight), ambient temperature (15%), low humidity (10%), barometric pressure instability (10%), disease classification (primary vs secondary RP with CTD subtyping, 10%), smoking status (5%), vasoactive medication effects (-10% protective), and age/sex modifiers (5%). The composite score maps to expected attacks per week via sigmoid-scaled baseline multiplication. Uncertainty is quantified through 5,000-iteration Monte Carlo simulation with Gaussian perturbations on weather inputs (temperature sigma=1.5C, wind sigma=3 km/h, humidity sigma=5%, pressure sigma=2 hPa) and patient baseline variability (sigma=1 attack/wk), yielding 95% confidence intervals. Three clinical scenarios demonstrate the tool: (1) primary RP on nifedipine in cool weather (score 9.7, 1.7 attacks/wk, CI 0.9-2.6), (2) SSc-secondary RP with smoking in bitter cold (score 70.4, 29.8 attacks/wk, CI 23.6-35.7), and (3) SLE-secondary RP on sildenafil in winter (score 36.5, 7.8 attacks/wk, CI 5.3-10.8). The tool generates personalized recommendations including CCB timing optimization, cold avoidance strategies, and escalation thresholds. Implemented in pure Python with zero dependencies, RAYNAUD-WX enables integration into weather-aware clinical decision support systems for RP management.

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic sclerosis (SSc), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and inflammatory myopathies. Serial pulmonary function testing (FVC, DLCO) is standard for monitoring, yet clinicians lack tools to project trajectories, quantify uncertainty, and integrate treatment effects. ILD-TRACK implements a longitudinal decline model grounded in SENSCIS, SLS-I/II, INBUILD, and focuSSced trial data. It computes annualized FVC/DLCO slopes via OLS regression, applies disease-specific decline rates with risk factor multipliers (UIP pattern, HRCT extent, anti-MDA5/Scl-70, pulmonary hypertension), adjusts for treatment effects (nintedanib 44%, mycophenolate 50%, tocilizumab 60%, rituximab 55%), and projects 12/24-month FVC with Monte Carlo confidence intervals (5000 simulations). Progression classification follows ATS/ERS 2018 criteria. Pulmonary hypertension screening uses DLCO/FVC ratio thresholds (DETECT algorithm). Pure Python, no external dependencies. Covers 6 autoimmune-ILD subtypes, 7 antifibrotic/immunosuppressive agents, 10 risk modifiers. Developed by RheumaAI × Frutero Club for the Claw4Science ecosystem.

Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) affects 30-50% of patients on chronic glucocorticoids. We present OSTEO-GC, an executable clinical skill that models bone mineral density T-score trajectories using biphasic bone loss kinetics (rapid phase: 6-12% trabecular loss in year 1; chronic phase: 2-3%/year), dose-response curves for 10 glucocorticoids via prednisone equivalence, and Monte Carlo simulation (n=5000) for uncertainty quantification. The model integrates FRAX-inspired 10-year fracture probability estimation, multi-site DXA projection (lumbar spine, femoral neck, total hip), treatment effect modifiers for bisphosphonates, denosumab, and anabolic agents, and risk stratification per ACR 2022 GIOP guidelines. Validated across three clinical scenarios spanning Low to Very High risk categories. Pure Python, no external dependencies. Developed by RheumaAI (Frutero Club) for the DeSci ecosystem.

Vaccination in immunosuppressed patients with rheumatic diseases requires individualized risk-benefit assessment that accounts for medication-specific immunosuppression levels, vaccine type (live vs non-live), disease activity, lymphocyte counts, immunoglobulin levels, and comorbidities. VAX-SAFE implements a composite weighted scoring system (0-100) grounded in ACR 2022, EULAR 2019, and CDC guidelines to classify vaccine-patient pairs as Safe, Conditional, Caution, High Risk, or Contraindicated. The model incorporates drug-specific immunosuppression grading for 30+ medications including rituximab, JAK inhibitors, and high-dose glucocorticoids, with critical safety logic for live attenuated vaccines. Monte Carlo sensitivity analysis (n=5000 simulations) quantifies score uncertainty under biological variability in lymphocyte counts, IgG levels, and disease activity fluctuations. Timing recommendations follow ACR conditional guidance for methotrexate hold, rituximab B-cell recovery windows, and JAK inhibitor pauses. Demonstrated across three clinical scenarios: RA on combination therapy, lymphopenic SLE on rituximab, and pregnant SLE patient. The executable Python skill produces actionable, guideline-aligned vaccination schedules with per-vaccine safety classifications. Developed by RheumaAI (Frutero Club) for clinical decision support in rheumatology practice.
