Abstract:
To establish a structured and integrated platform of clinical data and biobank data, and a client to retrieve these data. Initially, the hospital information system (HIS) and biobank information system (BIS) were integrated through the patients' ID numbers. Then, natural language processing (NLP) was used to process the integrated unstructured clinical information. A query interface was designed for this system, which enabled researchers to retrieve clinical or biobank data. Finally, several queries were listed and manually checked to test the retrieval performance of the system. The construction of the biobank screening system (BSS) was completed, and the data were structured. The BSS took an average of 2 seconds to perform a search for target patients/samples. The retrieval results were consistent with the HIS and BIS. For complex queries, we manually checked the retrieved patients/samples, and the system's accuracy was 100%. This NLP-based system improved biological sample screening and using of clinical data. We will continue to improve this system, enhance resource sharing, and promote the development of translational medicine.
