*The 17 influential findings indicated in BN-EM-Topaz were arthralgia, cervical lymphadenopathy, chill, cough, fever, hoarseness, influenza-like illness, lab confirmed influenza lab order (nasal swab), malaise, myalgia, rhinorrhea, sore throat, suspected flu, viral infection, viral syndrome, and wheezing.
AUROC, area under the receiver operating characteristic; BN, Bayesian network.
