Ontology-based Semantic Support to Improve Accessibility of Graphics.

Studies in health technology and informatics
We aim to ease the process of authoring accessible graphics as well as taking a first step towards the long-term goal of allowing blind persons to access graphics autonomously. We are developing and experimenting with a hierarchical set of knowledge ...

Facilitating Full-text Access to Biomedical Literature Using Open Access Resources.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Open access (OA) resources and local libraries often have their own literature databases, especially in the field of biomedicine. We have developed a method of linking a local library to a biomedical OA resource facilitating researchers' full-text ar...

Fuzzy-Arden-Syntax-based, Vendor-agnostic, Scalable Clinical Decision Support and Monitoring Platform.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This study's objective is to develop and use a scalable genuine technology platform for clinical decision support based on Arden Syntax, which was extended by fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic. Arden Syntax is a widely recognized formal language for r...

A Pilot Ontology for Healthcare Quality Indicators.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Computerisation of quality indicators for the English National Health Service currently relies primarily on queries and clinical coding, with little use of ontologies. We created a searchable ontology for a diverse set of healthcare quality indicator...

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...
