Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

48
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Classification of Illness01:17

Classification of Illness

7.2K
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...

Infection01:20

Infection

6.5K
When a pathogen enters the body and reproduces, it can cause an infection, damage body cells, and cause illness symptoms that eventually lead to disease. Therefore, its prevention requires breaking the chain of infection.
The chain begins with pathogens: bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions, or parasites such as protozoa helminths. These can be present on the skin as transient or resident flora, or they can be acquired from the environment. Identifying and treating the type of infection and...

ER Retrieval Pathway01:45

ER Retrieval Pathway

3.6K
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...

The Tree of Life - Bacteria, Archaea, Eukaryotes02:40

The Tree of Life - Bacteria, Archaea, Eukaryotes

31.7K
The “tree of life” describes the evolution of life and the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The root of the tree is the common ancestor to all life on Earth. All other species radiate from this point, much like the branches of a tree. The numerous tips of these branches on the tree of life represent every living, or extant, species. Extinct species, which are species that no longer exist, can be found towards the center of the tree. Currently, these organisms, both...

Healthcare Associated Infections I: Iatrogenic, Exogenic and Endogenic01:26

Healthcare Associated Infections I: Iatrogenic, Exogenic and Endogenic

3.9K
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) occur in a healthcare facility while a person receives care for another ailment. This category also includes work-related infections among healthcare staff.
HAIs significantly increase the cost of health care. Extended stays in healthcare institutions, increased disability, increased costs of medications, including specialized antibiotics, and prolonged recovery times add to the patient's expenses and the healthcare institution and funding bodies.

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Standardized ontologies like the Infectious Disease Ontology (IDO) are crucial for managing infectious disease data. New pathogen-specific extensions (VIDO, BIDO, MIDO, PIDO) enhance data modularity and reusability.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Informatics
  • Infectious Disease Research
  • Ontology Engineering

Background:

  • Infectious diseases pose significant global health challenges, necessitating robust data management strategies.
  • Standardized ontologies, such as the Infectious Disease Ontology (IDO), are vital for organizing and sharing infectious disease information.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the need for updated IDO and its virus-specific extensions, alongside extensions for bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the Infectious Disease Ontology (IDO) and its foundational role in infectious disease data management.
  • To detail the development and scope of new pathogen-specific extensions of the IDO.
  • To highlight the advancements in ontology modularization and reusability for infectious disease research.

Main Methods:

  • Adoption of a "hub-and-spoke" methodology for generating pathogen-specific ontology extensions.
  • Development of the Virus Infectious Disease Ontology (VIDO), Bacteria Infectious Disease Ontology (BIDO), Mycosis Infectious Disease Ontology (MIDO), and Parasite Infectious Disease Ontology (PIDO).

Main Results:

  • Introduction of the Infectious Disease Ontology (IDO) and its core components.
  • Detailed reporting on the scope, major classes, and relationships within IDO and its new extensions.
  • Demonstration of the applications and utility of IDO extensions in organizing infectious disease data.

Conclusions:

  • The creation of pathogen-specific ontologies promotes modularity and reusability within the IDO ecosystem.
  • Future work will involve refining existing ontologies, developing new extensions, and creating application ontologies.
  • These efforts align with the broader goal of standardizing biological and biomedical terminologies to improve data sharing, quality, and analysis.
