Characterizing Health Information for Different Target Audiences.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Different groups of audiences in health care: health professionals and health consumers, each have different information needs. Health monographs targeting different audiences are created by leveraging readers' background knowledge. The NCI's Physici...

Utility of Arden Syntax for Representation of Fuzzy Logic in Clinical Quality Measures.

Studies in health technology and informatics
BACKGROUND: Prior work has established that fuzzy logic is prevalent in clinical practice guidelines and that Arden Syntax is suitable for representing clinical quality measures (CQMs). Approved since then, Arden Syntax v2.9 (2012) has formal constru...

Constructing a Graph Database for Semantic Literature-Based Discovery.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Literature-based discovery (LBD) generates discoveries, or hypotheses, by combining what is already known in the literature. Potential discoveries have the form of relations between biomedical concepts; for example, a drug may be determined to treat ...

ICHI Categorial Structure: a WHO-FIC Tool for Semantic Interoperability of Procedures Classifications.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Casemix grouping using procedures classifications has become an important use case for health care terminologies. There are so many different national procedures classifications used for Casemix grouping that it is not possible to agree on a worldwid...

Semantic Web Ontology and Data Integration: a Case Study in Aiding Psychiatric Drug Repurposing.

Studies in health technology and informatics
There remain significant difficulties selecting probable candidate drugs from existing databases. We describe an ontology-oriented approach to represent the nexus between genes, drugs, phenotypes, symptoms, and diseases from multiple information sour...

Translating ICD-11 into French using lexical-based approach: a preliminary study.

Studies in health technology and informatics
To translate the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) into French, we proposed a lexical approach using Natural Language Processing techniques. This method relies on the 56 biomedical terminologies and ontologies incl...

Extraction of Vital Signs from Clinical Notes.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Assessment of vital signs is an essential part of surveillance of critically ill patients to detect condition changes and clinical deterioration. While most modern electronic medical records allow for vitals to be recorded in a structured format, the...

A Frequency-based Strategy of Obtaining Sentences from Clinical Data Repository for Crowdsourcing.

Studies in health technology and informatics
In clinical NLP, one major barrier to adopting crowdsourcing for NLP annotation is the issue of confidentiality for protected health information (PHI) in clinical narratives. In this paper, we investigated the use of a frequency-based approach to ext...

Ontology-Driven Semantic Search for Brazilian Portuguese Clinical Notes.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The emerging penetration of Health IT in Latin America (especially in Brazil) has exacerbated the ever-increasing amount of Electronic Health Record (EHR) clinical free text documents.This imposes a workflow efficiency challenge on clinicians who nee...

Proposal of Local Automatic Weighing Attribute in CBIR.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Lung cancer is the most common malignant lesion and the principal cause of cancer-related death worldwide. This problem encourages researchers to build computer-aided solutions to help diagnose lung cancer. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system...
