  1. 1. Design, Development, and Adoption of Ontology-Driven Clinical Software

    Author : Marie Gustafsson; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Information technology; Informationsteknologi; Teknik; Technology; online communities;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses how ontology-driven applications can be designed and developed to support distributed clinical knowledge management in oral medicine, where geographically dispersed practitioners need to share practical clinical knowledge. A step in developing tools for knowledge management is representing knowledge in a machine-processable and sharable manner. READ MORE

    Abstract : The clinical course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is highly heterogeneous, which has prompted the search for biomarkers that can predict prognosis in this disease. The IGHV gene mutation status and certain genomic aberrations have been identified as reliable prognostic markers of clinical outcome for this disorder. READ MORE

  4. 4. Genetic Cartography at Massively Parallel Scale

    Author : Johan Dahlberg; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Adam Ameur; Michael C. Zody; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) is revolutionizing genomics. In this work we use, refine, and develop new tools for the discipline.MPS has led to the discovery of multiple novel subtypes in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). In Study I we screen for fusion genes in 134 pediatric ALL patients, including patients without an assigned subtype. READ MORE
