要旨

Objective:

To develop and implement a multi-institutional research platform by standardizing and integrating clinical terms with international terminologies.

Materials And Methods:

This study introduces the Health data Research Suite (HRS) platform, designed to standardize and connect electronic medical record (EMR) data across institutions for efficient multi-institutional research. A hybrid mapping process-combining automated and manual methods-ensures semantic equivalency, consistency, and compliance with international standards like SNOMED CT, LOINC, and RxNorm. Key strategies included domain-specific semantic restrictions, prioritized attributes for post-coordination, and tailored mapping approaches. Cross-validation and expert consultations resolved mapping discrepancies and inactive concept issues, ensuring reliable data alignment.

Results:

The study enhanced mapping accuracy in SNOMED CT, LOINC, and RxNorm by utilizing semantic tags and attribute prioritization, with expert consultations addressing any discrepancies. The HRS platform, designed with advanced code search capabilities and user-friendly interfaces, improved cohort generation and facilitated multi-institutional research.

Discussion:

Challenges in maintaining inter-institutional consistency and addressing SNOMED CT's hierarchical limitations were mitigated with a detailed mapping manual, systematic validation, and expert consensus-building. However, a national shortage of trained terminology specialists in Korea underscores the need for educational programs to enhance workforce expertise. Future enhancements include advanced search options and attribute-based retrieval to further improve usability and research support.

Conclusion:

This study presents a mapping strategy to align institutional clinical terms with international standards, addressing challenges in semantic consistency and system implementation. The approach enhances multi-institutional research efficiency and fosters innovation in integrated healthcare research, with potential to advance global health outcomes.

Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs)

Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs)

Microtubule function and architecture are regulated by an array of specialized proteins called microtubule-associated proteins or MAPs. These proteins are widespread across different organisms and have conserved protein motifs, like the multi-TOG domain for tubulin binding found in the CLASP family of MAPs. Some MAPs are lineage-specific based on their conserved domains. Their functions depend upon the cytoskeletal architecture and cell type they are located within. In-plant cells, a specific...

Plotting of Topographic Maps

Plotting of Topographic Maps

Topographic maps represent the Earth's surface features using contour lines, which connect points of equal elevation to create a two-dimensional representation of three-dimensional terrain. Creating a topographic map requires a systematic approach.Begin by plotting a scaled grid and marking intersections corresponding to the survey's elevation data points. Assign elevation values at these intersections to build the base map. Next, determine contour levels using a consistent contour interval,...

Coordinates and Map Projections

Coordinates and Map Projections

Coordinates and map projections are essential tools in accurately representing the Earth's surface for various applications, ranging from navigation to spatial analysis. The latitude and longitude coordinate system is a universally recognized framework for defining locations. Latitude specifies the distance of a point north or south of the equator, measured in degrees from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. Longitude indicates a location's position east or west of the prime meridian,...

Anatomical Terminology

Anatomical Terminology

Knowledge of anatomy is essential to understand human biology and medicine. Anatomists and health care professionals use standard terminology to describe the human body with more precision and no ambiguity. Anatomical terms have mostly Greek and Latin-derived roots. Because these languages are rarely used in conversation, the meaning of words remains the same. Each term is made up of a root in between the prefixes and suffixes. The root of a term often refers to an organ, tissue, or condition,...

Circuit Terminology

Circuit Terminology

An electrical network is a system composed of interconnected elements, such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, and voltage or current sources. Unlike a circuit, an electrical network does not necessarily form a closed path. In other words, while all circuits can be considered networks due to their interconnected nature, not every network qualifies as a circuit.
A circuit, on the other hand, is also an interconnected system of electrical elements but must contain one or more closed paths.

Chromatographic Methods: Terminology

Chromatographic Methods: Terminology

Chromatography is an analytical technique widely used in fields such as chemistry, biology, environmental science, and pharmaceuticals to separate the components of a mixture and identify substances between them. The process of chromatography is based on the interactions between two distinct phases: the stationary phase and the mobile phase. The stationary phase is fixed in place by a supporting material, while the mobile phase moves over it, carrying the solutes. As the mobile phase travels,...
