HADRec is a Hierarchy-Aware Drug Recommendation framework that fuses molecular knowledge and electronic health records to improve medication recommendation. It uses LLaMA-7B to encode clinical notes, ChemBERTa to encode drug SMILES strings, and a cross‑attention mechanism for multimodal fusion, while a hierarchical predictor and consistency constraint loss enforce adherence to the ATC classification system. Experiments on MIMIC‑III and MIMIC‑IV show state‑of‑the‑art performance, strong generalization, and well‑calibrated predictions, with counterfactual evaluation indicating clinically aligned reasoning.

The paper introduces a unified pre‑training framework for medical representations that incorporates hierarchical sub‑token aggregation, partial masking, and cross‑reference mechanisms to better capture the structure of medical codes. The resulting model outperforms existing BERT‑based approaches on pre‑training tasks and downstream clinical predictions, such as dementia onset and hospitalization. An in‑silico drug repositioning study for Alzheimer’s disease demonstrates the framework’s ability to rediscover known drugs and prioritize new hypotheses without external literature, establishing a workflow for hypothesis generation and prioritization based on observational data.
arXiv:2508. 14817v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Objective: To evaluate whether retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) can serve as an efficient alternative to long-context prompting for clinical reasoning over electronic health records (EHRs).
