Table 6 Top 10 enriched codes for July 4th. The top 10 most enriched codes for July 4th. As expected for Independence Day, the most enriched codes were related to firework accidents, burns, and alcohol poisoning. To reduce the false positive rate of the code enrichment from extremely rare codes that appeared during the baseline period, the enriched codes were only counted if they appeared more than 10 times over the 24 year period. We also report by percent increase rather than -log(p) for better interpretability
