IMPORTANCEAlthough angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are recommended for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), they remain underused. Barriers to adherence, such as adverse effects or patient refusal, are frequently embedded within unstructured clinical narratives and are therefore inaccessible to structured data analytics. Scalable natural language processing (NLP) approaches are needed to identify these barriers and support guideline-...
