Creating medically-driven integrative bioinformatics applications focused on oncology, CNS disorders and their comorbidities (MedBioinformatics) (MedBioinformatics)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2018,
Progress in biomedical research and healthcare requires profiting from the huge amount of data and knowledge that are generated. However, most of the potential users have no means to efficiently exploit this wealth of information. Up to now, many of the efforts done for developing bioinformatics methods and applications have not produced the expected societal impact for different reasons, includin ...

ASSESSMENT OF THE SAFETY OF LABAS IN ASTHMA IN ROUTINE CARE BY COMBINING HEALTH-CARE DATABASES AND DIRECT PATIENT FOLLOW-UP (ASTRO-LAB)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2016,
Background: The efficacy of long-acting β-agonists (LABAs) in asthma has been demonstrated but their safety remains an issue, particularly in children. Co-therapy with inhaled corticosteroids (ICs) is recommended in persistent asthma. However, drug-use studies suggest frequently inadequate IC adherence, possibly explaining the occurrence of exacerbations. There is a need for detailed analyses of p ...

The Open Pharmacological Concepts Triple Store (OPEN PHACTS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 29, 2016,
Drug discovery is data-hungry and all major pharmaceutical companies maintain extensive in-house instances of public data alongside internal. Analysis and hypothesis generation for drug-discovery projects requires assembly, overlay and comparison of data from many sources, requiring shared identifiers and common semantics. Expression profiles need to be overlaid with gene or pathway identifiers an ...

EuroDRG – Diagnosis-Related Groups in Europe: towards Efficiency and Quality (EuroDRG)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
Payment systems are fundamental to any health care system, introducing powerful incentives and fierce technical design complexities. DRG-systems aim at fairly assessing the costs of patient treatment, taking into account measurable patient characteristics such as diagnosis or comorbidity – but to a varying degree also interventions chosen. Using a representative sample of inpatient data on 10-12 “ ...
