Classification of Illness01:17

Classification of Illness

9.3K
The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

Sputum Studies I: Gram Stain, cytology, and Acid-fast smear and culture01:26

Sputum Studies I: Gram Stain, cytology, and Acid-fast smear and culture

1.0K
Sputum studies are a critical part of diagnosing and treating numerous respiratory conditions. These studies involve obtaining sputum samples for analysis to identify pathogenic organisms and assess the presence of abnormal cells indicative of malignant conditions. This lesson will delve into three fundamental sputum studies: Gram Stain, Cytology, and Acid-fast Smear and Culture.
Gram Stain
The Gram Stain is an integral part of sputum studies. It involves the staining of sputum, which permits...

ER Retrieval Pathway01:45

ER Retrieval Pathway

5.0K
In the secretory pathway, vesicles transport proteins from one cellular compartment to another in forward transport to deliver the protein to its correct location. Occasionally, misfolded proteins and incorrect proteins escape their original compartments, and a retrieval pathway is used to return the escaped proteins to their original compartment.
The ER uses many checkpoints to prevent the entry of incorrectly folded or a resident protein as cargo onto a transport vesicle. These mechanisms...

Tumor Progression02:07

Tumor Progression

7.8K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Classification of Leukocytes01:30

Classification of Leukocytes

7.2K
Leukocytes are classified into two groups based on the presence or absence of cytoplasmic granules. Granular leukocytes, which contain granules, belong to the myeloid lineage and are divided into three subtypes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. These cells are roughly spherical and characterized by the granules in their cytoplasm.
Neutrophils are the most abundant type of granular leukocytes, comprising 50-70% of all leukocytes. They feature small, evenly distributed granules and a...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Natural Language Processing
  • Clinical Data Mining

Background:

  • Vast amounts of valuable clinical information are locked in plain text reports.
  • Automated information extraction techniques are crucial for leveraging this data.
  • The Cancer Text Information Extraction System (caTIES) is a prominent system in cancer research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate a novel n-gram based framework for concept discovery in clinical text reports.
  • To compare the performance of the proposed framework against the established caTIES system.
  • To develop a scoring model for weighting extracted concepts.

Main Methods:

  • An n-gram based framework was developed for concept discovery.
  • MetaMap was utilized to map medical terms to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Metathesaurus and Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) Metathesaurus.
  • A scoring model was applied to weight concepts extracted by both the proposed framework and caTIES.

Main Results:

  • The n-gram framework demonstrated higher scores than caTIES in 36.9% of reports.
  • Performance was similar between the framework and caTIES in 60.5% of reports.
  • The framework proved capable of discovering concepts from text reports.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed n-gram framework is a viable and effective tool for extracting concepts from clinical text.
  • The framework shows competitive or superior performance compared to existing systems like caTIES.
  • This approach enhances the ability to utilize unstructured clinical data for research and clinical applications.
