Abstract: In this article, we propose a new approach for indexing biomedical documents based on a possibilistic network that carries out partial matching between documents and biomedical vocabulary. The main contribution of our approach is to deal with the imprecision and uncertainty of the indexing task using possibility theory. We enhance estimation of the similarity between a document and a given concept using the two measures of possibility and necessity. Possibility estimates the extent to which a document is not similar to the concept. The second measure can provide confirmation that the document is similar to the concept. Our contribution also reduces the limitation of partial matching. Although the latter allows extracting from the document other variants of terms than those in dictionaries, it also generates irrelevant information. Our objective is to filter the index using the knowledge provided by the Unified Medical Language System®. Experiments were carried out on different corpora, showing encouraging results (the improvement rate is +26.37% in terms of main average precision when compared with the baseline).

Abstract: Constantinescu and Ilie (2006) introduced the idea of an Abelian period with head and tail of a finite word. An Abelian period is called full if both the head and the tail are empty. We present a simple and easy-to-implement O ( n log log n ) -time algorithm for computing all the full Abelian periods of a word of length n over a constant-size alphabet. Experiments show that our algorithm significantly outperforms the O ( n ) algorithm proposed by Kociumaka et al. (2013) for the same problem.

Abstract: Despite international initiatives like Orphanet, it remains difficult to find up-to-date information about rare diseases. The aim of this study is to propose an exhaustive set of queries for PubMed based on terminological knowledge and to evaluate it versus the queries based on expertise provided by the most frequently used resource in Europe: Orphanet.Four rare disease terminologies (MeSH, OMIM, HPO and HRDO) were manually mapped to each other permitting the automatic creation of expended terminological queries for rare diseases. For 30 rare diseases, 30 citations retrieved by Orphanet expert query and/or query based on terminological knowledge were assessed for relevance by two independent reviewers unaware of the query's origin. An adjudication procedure was used to resolve any discrepancy. Precision, relative recall and F-measure were all computed.For each Orphanet rare disease (n = 8982), there was a corresponding terminological query, in contrast with only 2284 queries provided by Orphanet. Only 553 citations were evaluated due to queries with 0 or only a few hits. There were no significant differences between the Orpha query and terminological query in terms of precision, respectively 0.61 vs 0.52 (p = 0.13). Nevertheless, terminological queries retrieved more citations more often than Orpha queries (0.57 vs. 0.33; p = 0.01). Interestingly, Orpha queries seemed to retrieve older citations than terminological queries (p < 0.0001).The terminological queries proposed in this study are now currently available for all rare diseases. They may be a useful tool for both precision or recall oriented literature search.

Abstract: Despite the many efforts already spent to enumerate somatic mutations in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), previous whole-genome and whole-exome studies conducted on patients of mixed outcomes failed at characterizing the 30% of patients who will relapse or resist current immunochemotherapies. To address this issue, we performed whole-exome sequencing of normal/tumoral DNA pairs in 14 relapsed/refractory (R/R) patients subclassified by full-transcriptome arrays (six activated B-cell like, three germinal center B-cell like, and five primary mediastinal B-cell lymphomas), from the LNH-03 LYSA clinical trial program. Aside from well-known DLBCL features, gene and pathway level recurrence analyses proposed several interesting leads including TBL1XR1 and activating mutations in IRF4 or in the insulin regulation pathway. Sequencing-based copy number analysis defined 23 short recurrently altered regions involving genes such as REL, CDKN2A, HYAL2, and TP53. Moreover, it highlighted mutations in genes such as GNA13, CARD11, MFHAS1, and PCLO as associated with secondary variant allele amplification events. The five primary mediastinal B-cell lymphomas (PMBL), while unexpected in a R/R cohort, showed a significantly higher mutation rate (P = 0.003) and provided many insights on this classical Hodgkin lymphoma related subtype. Novel genes such as XPO1, MFHAS1, and ITPKB were found particularly mutated, along with various cytokine-based signaling pathways. Among these analyses, somatic events in the NF-κB pathway were found preponderant in the three DLBCL subtypes, confirming its major implication in DLBCL aggressiveness and pinpointing several new candidate genes.

Abstract: In this paper we propose the FM-index of alignment, a compressed index for similar strings with the functionalities of pattern search and random access. For this, we first design a new and improved version of the suffix array of alignment. The FM-index of alignment is an FM-index of this suffix array of alignment. The FM-index of alignment supports the LF-mapping and backward search, the key functionalities of the FM-index, but the LF-mapping and backward search of our index is significantly more involved than the original FM-index. We implemented the FM-index of alignment and did experiments on 100 genome sequences from the 1000 Genomes Project. The index size of the FM-index of alignment is about a half of that of RLCSA due to Mäkinen et al.

Abstract: Background Physicians are increasingly encouraged to practice evidence-based medicine (EBM), and their decisions require evidence based on valid research. Existing literature shows a mismatch between general practitioners’ (GPs) information needs and evidence available online. The aim of this study was to explore the attitudes and behavior of residents in general medicine and GPs when seeking medical information online. Methods Five focus groups (FGs) involving residents in general medicine and GPs were conducted between October 2013 and January 2014. The overall number of participants recruited was 35. The focus group discussion guide focused on participants’ experiences in searching for health information on the Internet, perceived barriers and possible solutions for improving the quality of their own search processes. Descriptive analysis was performed by three researchers. Results Participants described a wide range of research topics, covering all general medicine core competencies, and especially patient-oriented topics. They used a limited list of websites. Participants were not confident about their ability to assess the quality of the information they found. Their assessment of data quality was based on intuition, and they mainly sought concordance with their existing knowledge. The way the data were exposed was considered very important. Participants were looking for information that was directly linked to their clinical practice. Information seeking processes varied among participants. They felt they had not mastered query building for conducting searches, and were aware of the impact this shortcoming had on the quality of their search for information. Conclusions Residents in general medicine and GPs understood the importance of EBM and the need for objective and reliable information. The present study highlights the difficulties in identifying this kind of information, and suggests ideas for improvement. Available search tools should change in order to fill the gap with real-world clinical practice, for example by integrating a patient-centred approach.

Abstract: Position du problème Une expérimentation a été lancée en 2013 pour évaluer l’impact de la consultation du dossier pharmaceutique dans les services d’urgences, de gériatrie et d’anesthésie-réanimation de 55 établissements hospitaliers. L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer l’intérêt et l’utilisabilité du dossier pharmaceutique auprès des médecins et pharmaciens utilisateurs. Méthodes Un auto-questionnaire électronique a été envoyé à tous les pharmaciens, anesthésistes-réanimateurs, gériatres et urgentistes des 55 établissements expérimentateurs du dossier pharmaceutique. Ce questionnaire évaluait l’utilisabilité du dossier pharmaceutique via la traduction française de l’échelle d’utilisabilité des systèmes, ainsi que l’usage du dossier pharmaceutique, son intérêt et ses limites perçues dans la pratique clinique et la satisfaction générale vis-à-vis de l’outil. Les questionnaires ont été collectés de novembre 2014 à janvier 2015. Résultats Quatre-vingt-seize questionnaires ont été recueillis. Ils concernaient 47 centres hospitaliers, soit 86 % des 55 établissements expérimentateurs du dossier pharmaceutique. Le recoupement des réponses a permis d’identifier 36 établissements au sein desquels le dossier pharmaceutique était actif. Soixante-treize questionnaires remplis par des praticiens ayant pu expérimenter le dossier pharmaceutique ont pu être exploités. Parmi les répondants, on comptait 57 % de pharmaciens (n = 42) et 43 % de médecins (n = 31), dont 13 gériatres, 11 urgentistes et 7 anesthésistes-réanimateurs. Le score moyen d’utilisabilité du dossier pharmaceutique était de 62,5 sur 100. Il ne variait ni selon la profession du répondant, ni selon son ancienneté d’exercice. Il était positivement corrélé à la fréquence d’utilisation. Plus de la moitié des répondants déclaraient utiliser rarement, ou jamais, le dossier pharmaceutique. La durée de la période d’accès aux données du dossier était considérée comme insuffisante. L’absence de mention des posologies des médicaments délivrés, le faible nombre de patients disposant de leur carte d’assurance maladie et le faible nombre de patients ayant un dossier pharmaceutique ouvert constituaient les principaux obstacles à une plus grande utilisation du dossier pharmaceutique. Conclusion Deux ans après le début de l’expérimentation visant à élargir l’accès au dossier pharmaceutique à des professionnels médicaux, les premiers éléments d’évaluation sont encourageants. Il reste nécessaire d’évaluer les conséquences de l’accès au dossier pharmaceutique pour les médecins.

Abstract: Objective: This part II article about the ‘words of prevention’ presents in a terminological way the content of ten current concepts used in the prevention domain which are closely linked to quaternary prevention: (1) overinformation, (2) overdiagnosis, (3) medically unexplained symptoms, (4) overmedicalisation, (5) incidentaloma, (6) overscreening, (7) overtreatment, (8) shared decision making, (9) deprescribing, and (10) disease mongering. Methods: with the support of the laboratory team of the University of Rouen, France, which is dedicated to medical terminology and semantic relationships, it was possible to utilize a graphic user interface (called DBGUI) allowing the construction of links for each of chosen terms, and making automatic links to MeSH, if any. Those concepts are analyzed in their environment in current literature, as well as in their MeSH counterparts, if any, and related semantic online terminologies. Results and Discussion: The rules in terminological development aspire to cover the whole field of a concept and in the meantime, it helps to avoid the noise due to proxy and not exactly related issues. This refers to exhaustivity and specificity in information retrieval. Our finds show that referring to MeSH only in information retrieval in General Practice/Family medicine can induce much noise and poor adequacy to the subject investigated. Conclusion: Gathering concepts in specially prepared terminologies for further development of ontologies is a necessity to enter in the semantic web area and the era of distributed data.

Abstract: To summarize excellent current research in the field of Bioinformatics and Translational Informatics with application in the health domain and clinical care.We provide a synopsis of the articles selected for the IMIA Yearbook 2015, from which we attempt to derive a synthetic overview of current and future activities in the field. As last year, a first step of selection was performed by querying MEDLINE with a list of MeSH descriptors completed by a list of terms adapted to the section. Each section editor has evaluated separately the set of 1,594 articles and the evaluation results were merged for retaining 15 articles for peer-review.The selection and evaluation process of this Yearbook's section on Bioinformatics and Translational Informatics yielded four excellent articles regarding data management and genome medicine that are mainly tool-based papers. In the first article, the authors present PPISURV a tool for uncovering the role of specific genes in cancer survival outcome. The second article describes the classifier PredictSNP which combines six performing tools for predicting disease-related mutations. In the third article, by presenting a high-coverage map of the human proteome using high resolution mass spectrometry, the authors highlight the need for using mass spectrometry to complement genome annotation. The fourth article is also related to patient survival and decision support. The authors present datamining methods of large-scale datasets of past transplants. The objective is to identify chances of survival.The current research activities still attest the continuous convergence of Bioinformatics and Medical Informatics, with a focus this year on dedicated tools and methods to advance clinical care. Indeed, there is a need for powerful tools for managing and interpreting complex, large-scale genomic and biological datasets, but also a need for user-friendly tools developed for the clinicians in their daily practice. All the recent research and development efforts contribute to the challenge of impacting clinically the obtained results towards a personalized medicine.

Abstract: The use of watermarking in the protection of medical relational databases requires that the introduced distortion does not hinder records interpretation. In this paper, we present the preliminary results of a watermarked data quality evaluation protocol developed so as to analyze the perception the practitioner has of the watermark. These results show that some attributes are more appropriate for watermarking than others and also that incoherent or unlikely records resulting from careless watermarking are easily identified by an expert.

Abstract: Suspected adverse drug reactions (ADR) reported by patients through social media can be a complementary tool to already existing ADRs signal detection processes. However, several studies have shown that the quality of medical information published online varies drastically whatever the health topic addressed. The aim of this study is to use an existing rating tool on a set of social network web sites in order to assess the capabilities of these tools to guide experts for selecting the most adapted social network web site to mine ADRs.First, we reviewed and rated 132 Internet forums and social networks according to three major criteria: the number of visits, the notoriety of the forum and the number of messages posted in relation with health and drug therapy. Second, the pharmacist reviewed the topic-oriented message boards with a small number of drug names to ensure that they were not off topic. Six experts have been chosen to assess the selected internet forums using a French scoring tool: Net scoring. Three different scores and the agreement between experts according to each set of scores using weighted kappa pooled using mean have been computed.Three internet forums were chosen at the end of the selection step. Some criteria get high score (scores 3-4) no matter the website evaluated like accessibility (45-46) or design (34-36), at the opposite some criteria always have bad scores like quantitative (40-42) and ethical aspect (43-44), hyperlinks actualization (30-33). Kappa were positives but very small which corresponds to a weak agreement between experts.The personal opinion of the expert seems to have a major impact, undermining the relevance of the criterion. Our future work is to collect results given by this evaluation grid and proposes a new scoring tool for Internet social networks assessment.

Abstract: Consequences of the computerization of laboratory and radiology information system (LIS and RIS) are not well documented. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of computerization of LIS and RIS of four hospitals on performance and quality of care. The study was divided into three phases. First, the subprocesses and information flows of LIS and RIS were described. Then, a literature review was performed in order to identify the indicators used to assess the impact of computerization. Finally, comparisons were made between 2 hospitals. Using the initial framework, each partner described its process mapping concerning LIS and RIS. The review identified a wide panel of indicators. Only 41 were useful to assess the impact of information systems. For each two by two comparison, lists of relevant indicators have been selected from the identified indicators and according to the process mapping comparison. Two by two comparisons have to be completed. Eventually, these indicators may be integrated in the quality process of hospital information systems.

Abstract: ICPC is available in the HeTOP cross-lingual terminology portal (URL: www.hetop.eu) [1] in 19 languages, mostly European (e.g. Spanish, Portuguese) but also in Japanese or Mandarin. The HeTOP interface has been also translated in 10 languages, including by Wonca colleagues (in Turkish, Vietnamese and Romanian). This is very important for non-English speakers to access a health Web site in his/her native language. Thanks to a partial manual mapping between ICPC2 and MeSH, it is now also possible to query PubMed from 20% of ICPC2 codes. This task is time consuming as in lot of cases, the mapping is 1 to N (one ICPC code generates several MeSH terms; e.g. the ICPC term "diverticular disease" is mapped to two MeSH terms " diverticulosis, colonic" and " diverticulitis". HeTOP currently contains 56 health terminologies and ontologies (only 17 are included in UMLS as most of them are French terminologies), 1,951,834 concepts, 6,636,000 terms, 8,023,181 relations and 1,340,855 relations. Overall, HeTOP contains 108 millions of SPARQL triplets. These figures underlines the possible application of the so called "health big data". Overall, the number of distinct UMLS concepts with at least one French translation in UMLS (MeSH, MedDRA, WHOART, ICPC) is 45,405 vs. 317,539 in HeTOP. 1.

Abstract: Electronic medical records (EHR) are a very important source of information for secondary use as epidemiological analysis and health services evaluation. The normalisation of the medical terms extracted from medical documents is an essential step of the preprocessing. Its quality partly depends on the medical terminologies available in the corresponding language. The objective of this presentation is to highlight the terminology needs for optimizing the data analysis of medical documents in the context of care pathway evaluation.

Abstract: Studies on the impact of a Health Information Technology seldom consider socio-technical characteristics of the work system in which the technology is implemented. Yet those dimensions may act as hidden variables that could explain the inconsistency of impact studies' results in terms of performance, quality and satisfaction. This paper reports on the identification of those variables in the discharge letter (DL) process. Human Factors experts performed an analysis of the work system of the DL process in 17 medical units. The DL process is composed of three sub-processes running with work system differing according to the distribution of tasks, the technology implemented and the work organization. Hidden variables identified are: verification by the physician, technology's integration, number of editing cycles, physicians' preferences etc. Those variables can be collected automatically or by questionnaire. Statistical analyses will have to be performed to know which variable explain impact indicators.

Abstract: Recently, the problem of extending an alignment with k-mismatches and a single gap for pairwise sequence alignment was introduced (Flouri et al., 2011). The authors considered the problem of extending an alignment under the Hamming distance model by also allowing the insertion of a single gap; and presented a Θ ( m β ) -time algorithm to solve it, where m is the length of the shortest sequence to be extended, and β is the maximum allowed length of the single gap. Very recently, it was shown (Flouri et al., 2012) that this problem is strongly and directly motivated by the next-generation re-sequencing application: aligning tens of millions of short DNA sequences against a reference genome. In this article, we consider an extension of this problem: extending an alignment with k-mismatches and two gaps; and present a Θ ( m β ) -time algorithm to solve it. This extension is proved to be fundamental in the next-generation re-sequencing application (Alachiotis et al., 2012). In addition, we present a generalisation of our solution to solve the problem of extending an alignment with k-mismatches and ℓ-gaps in time Θ ( m β ℓ ) . The presented solutions work provided that all gaps in the alignment must occur in one of the two sequences.

Abstract: We present an algorithm that, given a word w of length n on an unordered alphabet, computes one of its unbordered conjugates. If such a conjugate does not exist, the algorithm computes one of its conjugates that is a power of an unbordered word. The time complexity of the algorithm is O ( n ) : the number of comparisons between letters of w is bounded by 4n.

Abstract: Constantinescu and Ilie [S. Constantinescu, L. Ilie. Fine and Wilf’s theorem for abelian periods, Bulletin of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science 89 (2006) 167–170] introduced the notion of an Abelian period of a word. A word of length n over an alphabet of size σ can have Θ ( n 2 ) distinct Abelian periods. The Brute-Force algorithm computes all the Abelian periods of a word in time O ( n 2 × σ ) using O ( n × σ ) space. We present an offline algorithm based on a select function having the same worst-case theoretical complexity as the Brute-Force one, but outperforming it in practice. We then present online algorithms that also enable us to compute all the Abelian periods of all the prefixes of w .

Abstract: To summarize the best papers in the field of Knowledge Representation and Management (KRM).A comprehensive review of medical informatics literature was performed to select some of the most interesting papers of KRM and natural language processing (NLP) published in 2013.Four articles were selected, one focuses on Electronic Health Record (EHR) interoperability for clinical pathway personalization based on structured data. The other three focus on NLP (corpus creation, de-identification, and co-reference resolution) and highlight the increase in NLP tools performances.NLP tools are close to being seriously concurrent to humans in some annotation tasks. Their use could increase drastically the amount of data usable for meaningful use of EHR.

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Doc'CISMeF (DC) is a semantic search engine used to find resources in CISMeF-BP, a quality controlled health gateway, which gathers guidelines available on the internet in French. Visualization of Concepts in Medicine (VCM) is an iconic language that may ease information retrieval tasks. This study aimed to describe the creation and evaluation of an interface integrating VCM in DC in order to make this search engine much easier to use.
METHODS: Focus groups were organized to suggest ways to enhance information retrieval tasks using VCM in DC. A VCM interface was created and improved using the ergonomic evaluation approach. 20 physicians were recruited to compare the VCM interface with the non-VCM one. Each evaluator answered two different clinical scenarios in each interface. The ability and time taken to select a relevant resource were recorded and compared. A usability analysis was performed using the System Usability Scale (SUS).
RESULTS: The VCM interface contains a filter based on icons, and icons describing each resource according to focus group recommendations. Some ergonomic issues were resolved before evaluation. Use of VCM significantly increased the success of information retrieval tasks (OR=11; 95% CI 1.4 to 507). Nonetheless, it took significantly more time to find a relevant resource with VCM interface (101 vs 65 s; p=0.02). SUS revealed 'good' usability with an average score of 74/100.
CONCLUSIONS: VCM was successfully implemented in DC as an option. It increased the success rate of information retrieval tasks, despite requiring slightly more time, and was well accepted by end-users.

Abstract: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) has complex pathogenesis and likely multifactorial causes. Environmental exposures have been suggested to play a role in SSc pathogenesis, including occupational exposure to pollutants and chemicals as well as use of drugs leading to modulation of immune response. Thus, this case-control study aimed to assess: the relationship between SSc and occupational exposure; and the risk of SSc related to occupational exposure in male and female patients.From 2005 to 2008, 100 patients with a definite diagnosis of SSc were included in the study; 3 age, gender, and smoking habits matched controls were selected for each patient. A committee of experts evaluated blindly occupational exposure to crystalline silica, white spirit, organic solvents, ketones, welding fumes, epoxy resins, and pesticides; an occupational exposure score was calculated for all subjects. Our findings were compared with previous data in the literature.Increased ORs for SSc were found for: crystalline silica (p<0.0001), white spirit (p<0.0001), aromatic solvents (p=0.0002), chlorinated solvents (p=0.014), trichlorethylene (p=0.044), ketones (p=0.002) and welding fumes (p=0.021). Elevated risk associated with high final cumulative score in SSc was observed for: crystalline silica, white spirit, chlorinated solvents, trichlorethylene, aromatic solvents, any type of solvents, ketones and welding fumes. A marked association between SSc and occupational exposure was further found for: 1) crystalline silica, chlorinated solvents, trichloroethylene, white spirit, ketones and welding fumes in male patients; and 2) white spirit, aromatic solvents, any type of solvent and ketones in female patients. Finally, we did not find an association between SSc and: 1) the use of drugs that have been speculated to play a role in SSc onset (anorexigens, pentazocine, bromocriptine, l-tryptophan); 2) implants - that are prosthesis, silicone implants, and contact lenses; and 3) dyeing hair. In the literature, SSc has been associated with occupational exposure to silica and solvents, while the association between SSc and specific organic solvents and welding fumes has been anecdotally reported.The following occupational factors have an impact in the development of SSc: crystalline silica, white spirit, aromatic solvents, chlorinated solvents, trichlorethylene, ketones and welding fumes. The risk of SSc appears to be markedly associated with high cumulative exposure. Finally, the association between SSc and occupational exposure may be variable according to gender.

Abstract: RésuméObjectif Medline/PubMed est la base documentaire la plus utilisée dans le domaine de la santé. L’objectif de ce travail était de proposer une nouvelle méthode générique pour limiter une requête quelconque effectuée en utilisant PubMed en utilisant le facteur d’impact « relatif », en se limitant aux catégories A et B du score SIGAPS, c’est-à-dire, aux « meilleurs articles » au sens du facteur d’impact. Matériel et méthodes Nous avons utilisé le corpus complet de PubMed comme référence, puis dix pathologies fréquentes en termes d’indexation dans PubMed, et les citations de quatre prix Nobel. Le facteur d’impact relatif (FIR) est calculé par discipline médicale défini dans le Journal Citation Reports. Les deux requêtes incluant les journaux de catégorie A (ou A ou B) ont pu être ajoutées à une requête quelconque de PubMed, ce qui était un élément central en termes de faisabilité. Résultats Le filtre par la catégorie A de SIGAPS est plus large que celui des Core Clinical Journals (CCJ) en sélectionnant 15,6 % du corpus de PubMed versus 8,6 % pour le CCJ. Le temps de réponse sur l’ensemble du corpus de PubMed est inférieur à deux secondes. Dans cinq pathologies sur dix, le filtre FIR est plus efficace que le filtre CCJ. Pour les quatre prix Nobel, le filtre FIR est beaucoup plus efficace que le filtre FIR. Conclusion L’étude de faisabilité d’utiliser le facteur d’impact relatif comme filtre d’une requête quelconque de Medline/PubMed est positive. AbstractBackground Medline/PubMed is the most frequently used medical bibliographic research database. The aim of this study was to propose a new generic method to limit any Medline/PubMed query based on the relative impact factor and the A &amp; B categories of the SIGAPS score. Material and methods The entire PubMed corpus was used for the feasibility study, then ten frequent diseases in terms of PubMed indexing and the citations of four Nobel prize winners. The relative impact factor (RIF) was calculated by medical specialty defined in Journal Citation Reports. The two queries, which included all the journals in category A (or A OR B), were added to any Medline/PubMed query as a central point of the feasibility study. Results Limitation using the SIGAPS category A was larger than the when using the Core Clinical Journals (CCJ): 15.65% of PubMed corpus vs 8.64% for CCJ. The response time of this limit applied to the entire PubMed corpus was less than two seconds. For five diseases out of ten, limiting the citations with the RIF was more effective than with the CCJ. For the four Nobel prize winners, limiting the citations with the RIF was more effective than the CCJ. Conclusion The feasibility study to apply a new filter based on the relative impact factor on any Medline/PubMed query was positive.

Abstract: Nous proposons dans cet article une nouvelle approche d’indexation de documents biomédicaux basée sur les réseaux possibilistes permettant de les apparier partiellement aux termes du thésaurus MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). La principale contribution de notre approche est le traitement de l’imprécision et de l’incertitude liée à la tâche d’indexation à travers l’utilisation de la théorie des possibilités. En effet, nous proposons d’améliorer l’estimation de la pertinence d’un document étant donné un concept en utilisant deux mesures : la possibilité et la nécessité. La possibilité estime le degré de rejet d’un document non pertinent étant donné un concept. La nécessité de la pertinence d’un document évalue dans quelle mesure un document est pertinent pour le concept. De plus, notre approche permet de réduire les limites de l’appariement partiel qui génère de l’information inutile, bien que ce type d’appariement permette de trouver dans le document d’autres variantes du vocabulaire contrôlé. Pour ce faire, nous proposons de filtrer l’index en utilisant les connaissances fournies par l’UMLS (Unified Medical Langage System). Filtrer l’index permet de ne garder que les concepts pertinents parmi ceux ayant un sous-ensemble de leurs mots dans le document. Les expérimentations réalisées sur les deux corpus OSHUMED et CISMeF ont montré des résultats encourageants.

Abstract: Background: main biomedical information retrieval systems are based on controlled vocabularies and most specifically on terminologies or ontologies (T/O). These classification structures allow indexing, coding, annotating different kind of documents. Many T/O have been created for different purposes and it became a problem for finding specific concepts in the multitude of existing nomenclatures. The NCBO (National Center for Biomedical Ontologies) BioPortal and the CISMeF (Catalogue et Index des Sites Médicaux de langue Française) HeTOP projects have been developed to tackle this issue. Objective: the present work consists in comparing both portals. Methods: we hereby are proposing a set of criteria to compare bio-ontologies portals in terms of goals, features, technologies and usability. Results: BioPortal and HeTOP have been compared based on the given criteria. While both portals are designed to store and make T/O available to the community and are sharing many basic features, they differ on several points mainly because of their basic purposes. Conclusion: thanks to the comparison criteria, we can assume that a merge between BioPortal and HeTOP is possible in terms of functionalities. The main difficulties will be about merging the data repositories and applying different policies on T/O content.

Abstract: In order to identify variations between two or several versions of Clinical Practice Guidelines, we propose a method based on the detection of noun phrases. Currently, we are developing a comparison approach to extract similar and different elements between medical documents in French in order to identify any significant changes such as new medical terms or concepts, new treatments etc. In this paper, we describe a basic initial step for this comparison approach i.e. detecting noun phrases. This step is based on patterns constructed from six main medical terminologies used in document indexing. The patterns are constructed by using a Tree Tagger. To avoid a great number of generated patterns, the most relevant ones are selected that are able identify more than 80% of the six terminologies used in this study. These steps allowed us to obtain a manageable list of 262 patterns which have been evaluated. Using this list of patterns, 708 maximal noun phrases were found, with, 364 correct phrases which represent a 51.41% precision. However by detecting these phrases manually, 602 maximal noun phrases were found which represent a 60.47% recall and therefore a 55.57% F-measure. We attempted to improve these results by increasing the number of patterns from 262 to 493. A total of 729 maximal noun phrases were obtained, with 365 which were correct, and corresponded to a 50.07% precision, 60.63% recall and 54.85% F-measure.

Abstract: Le Dossier Patient Informatisé (DPI) constitue une source d’information pour des applications aussi variées que la recherche médicale, l’aide à la décision, la médecine factuelle ou la surveillance épidémiologique. Les publications utilisant l’analyse textuelle pour traiter du dossier patient sont en progression constante. Bien que donnant de très bons résultats, une telle approche fait apparaitre un certain nombre de défis, tels que la nécessité d’intégrer connaissances linguistiques et connaissances métier. Se basant sur une expérience précédente, cet article montre comment lier l’analyse linguistique, la représentation des connaissances, les ontologies médicales et le raisonnement afin de fournir un système générique permettant d’extraire, de structurer et d’exploiter l’information provenant des DPIs.

Abstract: This chapter explains why it is hard to use medical language in computer applications and why the computer must adopt the human interpretation of medical words to avoid misunderstandings linked to ambiguity, homonymy and synonymy. Terminological resources are specific representations of medical language for dedicated use in particular health domains. We describe here the components of terminology (terms, concepts, relationships between concepts, definitions, constraints). The various artefacts of terminological resources (e.g. thesaurus, classification, nomenclature) are defined. We also provide examples of the dedicated use of terminological resources, such as disease coding, the indexing of biomedical publications, reasoning in decision support systems and data entry into electronic medical records. ICD 10, SNOMED CT, and MeSH are among the terminologies used in the examples. Alignment methods are described, making it possible to identify equivalent terms in different terminologies and to bridge different domains in health. We also present plans for multi-terminological servers, such as the UMLS (Unified Medical Language Systems), which provide a key vocabulary linking heterogeneous health terminologies in different languages.

Abstract: This chapter describes the various types of document available via the Internet for the dissemination of health knowledge. It describes the process for the publication of scientific articles reporting the results of research. The concepts of journal impact factor, citation base and h-index are explained. The Cochrane collaboration for literature reviews and meta-analysis is described. The goals of national and international clinical guidelines are explained and examples are provided of websites providing access to such guidelines. The various types of training materials available from e-learning platforms for medical students are described. This chapter also takes into account drug monographs, which are particularly useful for prescription and disease knowledge bases. Examples of resources useful to members of the public are also provided and we describe the methods for accessing health knowledge, including details of the resource indexing process and the MeSH thesaurus frequently used for indexing. The quality of health information on the Internet is also considered and the principal quality criteria are listed. The HON foundation and certification are described.

Abstract: Self-efficacy is defined as a person's beliefs in his or her abilities to successfully complete a task, and has been shown to influence student motivation and academic achievement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a new European teaching module in occupational medicine on undergraduate students' self-efficacy and knowledge in the subject matter.Pre-, in-between, and posttraining tests were used to assess self-efficacy and knowledge building of 261 third-year medical students on occupational health issues. Determinants of self-efficacy and knowledge were also identified. Repeated measurement data were analyzed with multilevel statistical procedures.The level of self-efficacy and knowledge in occupational medicine increased after the training. Students who frequently attended the lectures scored significantly higher than sporadic attendees. There was no relation between the level of self-efficacy and the final knowledge score.Teaching with the new occupational medicine module was effective. Lecture attendance is an important determinant of self-efficacy and performance. Self-efficacy was not associated with knowledge score. Encouraging classroom participation may enhance student achievement.

Abstract: Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with hybridization to a tiling array (ChIP-chip) is a cost-effective and routinely used method to identify protein-DNA interactions or chromatin/histone mod-ifications. The robust identification of ChIP-enriched regions is frequently complicated by noisymeasurements. This identification can be improved by accounting for dependencies between adja-cent probes on chromosomes and by modeling of biological replicates.MultiChIPmixHMM is a user-friendly R package to analyse ChIP-chip data modeling spatial depen-dencies between directly adjacent probes on a chromosome and enabling a simultaneous analysis ofreplicates. It is based on a linear regression mixture model, designed to perform a joint modeling ofimmunoprecipitated and input measurements.We show the utility of MultiChIPmixHMM by analyzing histone modifications of Arabidopsisthaliana. MultiChIPmixHMM is implemented in R and including functions in C, freely availablefrom the CRAN web site: http://cran.r-project.org.

Abstract: In searches for clinical trials and systematic reviews, it is said that Google Scholar (GS) should never be used in isolation, but in addition to PubMed, Cochrane, and other trusted sources of information. We therefore performed a study to assess the coverage of GS specifically for the studies included in systematic reviews and evaluate if GS was sensitive enough to be used alone for systematic reviews.

Abstract: PURPOSE: General practitioners play or should play a role in occupational medicine (OM), either in diagnosing occupational diseases or in counseling on return to work. Nevertheless, their training has been reported to be insufficient in most single country studies. AIMS: The objectives of this study were to analyze the content and extent of undergraduate teaching of OM in European medical schools. METHODS: An e-mail questionnaire survey of the teaching of OM to undergraduates was undertaken from December 2010 to April 2011 in all medical schools and medical faculties listed in 27 European countries (n = 305). RESULTS: Among the 305 universities identified, 135 answered to the questionnaire, giving a response rate of 44  The mean number of hours given to formal instruction in occupational medicine to medical undergraduates was 25.5 h. Nevertheless, this number of hours varied widely between countries, but also within countries. Overall, 27 % of medical schools gave their students 10 h of teaching or less, 52 % 20 h or less and 69 % 30 h or less. Whereas occupational diseases and principles of prevention were covered in most schools, disability and return to work were very poorly represented among the topics that were taught to students. CONCLUSION: Dedicated undergraduate teaching on occupational health or OM in European medical schools is present in most medical schools, usually at a low level, but is very variable between and within countries. Medical schools across Europe are very unequal to provide qualifying doctors education on the topics they will frequently come across in their working lives.

Abstract: The objective of this study was to ascertain the performance of syndromic algorithms for the early detection of patients in healthcare facilities who have potentially transmissible infectious diseases, using computerised emergency department (ED) data.A retrospective cohort in an 810-bed University of Lyon hospital in France was analysed. Adults who were admitted to the ED and hospitalised between June 1, 2007, and March 31, 2010 were included (N=10895). Different algorithms were built to detect patients with infectious respiratory, cutaneous or gastrointestinal syndromes. The performance parameters of these algorithms were assessed with regard to the capacity of our infection-control team to investigate the detected cases.For respiratory syndromes, the sensitivity of the detection algorithms was 82.70 and the specificity was 82.37 For cutaneous syndromes, the sensitivity of the detection algorithms was 78.08 and the specificity was 95.93 For gastrointestinal syndromes, the sensitivity of the detection algorithms was 79.41 and the specificity was 81.97This assessment permitted us to detect patients with potentially transmissible infectious diseases, while striking a reasonable balance between true positives and false positives, for both respiratory and cutaneous syndromes. The algorithms for gastrointestinal syndromes were not specific enough for routine use, because they generated a large number of false positives relative to the number of infected patients. Detection of patients with potentially transmissible infectious diseases will enable us to take precautions to prevent transmission as soon as these patients come in contact with healthcare facilities.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The objective is to represent the Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) in the OWL 2 Web Ontology Language (informally OWL 2), and to use it in a European cross-lingual portal of health terminologies for indexing and searching Web resources. Formalizing the FMA in OWL 2 is essential for semantic interoperability, to improve its design, and to ensure its reliability and correctness, which is particularly important for medical applications. METHOD AND MATERIAL: The native FMA was implemented in frames and stored in a MySQL database backend. The main strength of the method is to leverage OWL 2 expressiveness and to rely on the naming conventions of the FMA, to make explicit some implicit semantics, while improving its ontological model and fixing some errors. Doing so, the semantics (meaning) of the formal definitions and axioms are anatomically correct. A flexible tool enables the generation of a new version in OWL 2 at each Protégé FMA update. While it creates by default a 'standard' version of the FMA in OWL 2 (FMA-OWL), many options allow for producing other variants customized to users' applications. Once formalized in OWL 2, it was possible to use an inference engine to check the ontology and detect inconsistencies. Next, the FMA-OWL was used to derive a lightweight FMA terminology for a European cross-lingual portal of terminologies/ontologies for indexing and searching resources. The transformation is mainly based on a reification process. RESULT: Complete representations of the entire FMA in OWL 1 or OWL 2 are now available. The formalization tool is flexible and easy to use, making it possible to obtain an OWL 2 version for all existing public FMA. A number of errors were detected in the native FMA and several patterns of recurrent errors were identified in the original FMA. This shows how the underlying OWL 2 ontology is essential to ensure that the lightweight derived terminology is reliable. The FMA OWL 2 ontology has been applied to derive an anatomy terminology that is used in a European cross-lingual portal of health terminologies. This portal is daily used by librarians to index Web health resources. In August 2011, 6481 out of 81,450 health resources of CISMeF catalog (http://www.chu-rouen.fr/cismef/ - accessed 29.08.12) (7.96 were indexed with at least one FMA entity. CONCLUSION: The FMA is a central terminology used to index and search Web resources. To the best of our knowledge, neither a complete representation of the entire FMA in OWL 2, nor an anatomy terminology available in a cross-lingual portal, has been developed to date. The method designed to represent the FMA ontology in OWL 2 presented in this article is general and may be extended to other ontologies. Using a formal ontology for quality assurance and deriving a lightweight terminology for biomedical applications is a general and promising strategy.

Abstract: To summarize the best papers in the field of Knowledge Representation and Management (KRM).A synopsis of the four selected articles for the IMIA Yearbook 2013 KRM section is provided, as well as highlights of current KRM trends, in particular, of the semantic web in daily health practice. The manual selection was performed in three stages: first a set of 3,106 articles, then a second set of 86 articles followed by a third set of 15 articles, and finally the last set of four chosen articles.Among the four selected articles (see Table 1), one focuses on knowledge engineering to prevent adverse drug events; the objective of the second is to propose mappings between clinical archetypes and SNOMED CT in the context of clinical practice; the third presents an ontology to create a question-answering system; the fourth describes a biomonitoring network based on semantic web technologies.These four articles clearly indicate that the health semantic web has become a part of daily practice of health professionals since 2012. In the review of the second set of 86 articles, the same topics included in the previous IMIA yearbook remain active research fields: Knowledge extraction, automatic indexing, information retrieval, natural language processing, management of health terminologies and ontologies.

Abstract: To help clinicians read medical texts such as clinical practice guidelines or drug monographs, we proposed an iconic language called VCM. This language can use icons to represent the main medical concepts, including diseases, symptoms, treatments and follow-up procedures, by combining various pictograms, shapes and colors. However, the semantics of this language have not been formalized, and users may create inconsistent icons, e.g. by combining the "tumor" shape and the "sleeping" pictograms into a "tumor of sleeping" icon.This work aims to represent the VCM language using DLs and OWL for evaluating its semantics by reasoners, and in particular for determining inconsistent icons. We designed an ontology for formalized the semantics of VCM icons using the Protégé editor and scripts for translating the VCM lexicon in OWL. We evaluated the ability of the ontology to determine icon consistency for a set of 100 random icons. The evaluation showed good results for determining icon consistency, with a high sensitivity. The ontology may also be useful for the design of mapping between VCM and other medical terminologies, for generating textual labels for icons, and for developing user interfaces for creating VCM icons.

Abstract: To summarize excellent current research in the field of Bioinformatics and Translational Informatics with application in the health domain and evidence-based medicine.We provide a synopsis of the articles selected for the IMIA Yearbook 2013, from which we attempt to derive a synthetic overview of current and future activities in the field. Three steps of selection were performed by querying PubMed and Web of Science. A first set of 5,549 articles was refined into a second set of 1,272 articles from which 15 articles were retained for peer-review.The selection and evaluation process of this Yearbook's section on Bioinformatics and Translational Informatics yielded four excellent articles regarding the Human Genome and Medicine. Exploiting genomic data depends on having the appropriate reference annotation available. In the first article, the goal of the GENCODE Consortium is to produce and publish The GENCODE human reference gene set. As a result it is composed by merged manual and automatic annotations, which are frequently updated from public experimental databases. The quality of genome sequencing is platform-dependant. In the second article, a generic database independent from the sequencing technologies, Huvariome, can help to identify errors and inconsistencies in sequencing. To understand complex diseases of patients it will be of great importance to detect rare gene variants. This is the aim of the third study. Finally, in the last article, the plasma's DNA of healthy individual and patients suffering from cancer is compared.The current research activities attest to the continuous convergence of Bioinformatics and Medical Informatics for clinical practice. For instance, a direct use of high throughput sequencing technologies for patients could aid the diagnosis of complex diseases (such as cancer) without invasive surgery (such as biopsy) but only with blood analysis. However, ongoing genomic tests will generate massive amounts of data and will imply new trends in the near future: "Big Data" and smart health management.

Abstract: Data about perceived needs of workers for information on occupational hazards or diseases (OHDs) are scarce and the behaviour of workers seeking information on these matters is not well known.To describe workers' needs and behaviour in seeking information about OHDs.All workers attending for consultation at an occupational health service in Upper Normandy within 1 week were invited to fill in an anonymous questionnaire.Of the 2640 workers responding 58% declared a need for information about OHD, but only 37% actually sought that information. Whereas 82% of workers mentioned the internet and their general physician (GP) as sources of information on OHD, only 43% mentioned their occupational physician (OP). Furthermore, information received from OPs was not considered more reliable than that from GPs.Workers report a need for information about OHDs. Although most of them trust information given by OPs, they do not use OPs to obtain OHD information, but instead use less reliable sources such as the internet or their GPs.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Most of the institutional and research information in the biomedical domain is available in the form of English text. Even in countries where English is an official language, such as the United States, language can be a barrier for accessing biomedical information for non-native speakers. Recent progress in machine translation suggests that this technique could help make English texts accessible to speakers of other languages. However, the lack of adequate specialized corpora needed to train statistical models currently limits the quality of automatic translations in the biomedical domain.
RESULTS: We show how a large-sized parallel corpus can automatically be obtained for the biomedical domain, using the MEDLINE database. The corpus generated in this work comprises article titles obtained from MEDLINE and abstract text automatically retrieved from journal websites, which substantially extends the corpora used in previous work. After assessing the quality of the corpus for two language pairs (English/French and English/Spanish) we use the Moses package to train a statistical machine translation model that outperforms previous models for automatic translation of biomedical text.
CONCLUSIONS: We have built translation data sets in the biomedical domain that can easily be extended to other languages available in MEDLINE. These sets can successfully be applied to train statistical machine translation models. While further progress should be made by incorporating out-of-domain corpora and domain-specific lexicons, we believe that this work improves the automatic translation of biomedical texts.

Abstract: The partial match between biomedical documents and controlled vocabularies allows to find in the documents more terms variants than those existing in the dictionaries. However, it generates irrelevant information. We propose a new approach for indexing biomedical documents with the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) thesaurus that aims to overcome the limitation of the partial match. In fact, our indexing approach proposes to restrict the stemming process in the step of pretreatment. The step of the descriptors extraction is based essentially on the vector space model and combines semantic and statistic methods to compute a score to estimate the relevance of a descriptor given a document. The knowledge provided by the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is used then for filtering. The filtering method aims to keep only relevant descriptors. The experiments of our approach that have been carried out on the OHSUMED collection, showed very encouraging results.

Abstract: We investigate abelian repetitions in Sturmian words. We exploit a bijection between factors of Sturmian words and subintervals of the unitary segment that allows us to study the periods of abelian repetitions by using classical results of elementary Number Theory. If k m denotes the maximal exponent of an abelian repetition of period m, we prove that limsup km/m≥5√km/mtextbackslashge textbackslashsqrt5 for any Sturmian word, and the equality holds for the Fibonacci infinite word. We further prove that the longest prefix of the Fibonacci infinite word that is an abelian repetition of period F j , j textgreater 1, has length F j ( F j + 1 + F j − 1 + 1) − 2 if j is even or F j ( F j + 1 + F j − 1 ) − 2 if j is odd. This allows us to give an exact formula for the smallest abelian periods of the Fibonacci finite words. More precisely, we prove that for j ≥ 3, the Fibonacci word f j has abelian period equal to F n , where n=⌊j/2⌋n = textbackslashlfloorj/2textbackslashrfloor if j=0,1,2mod4j = 0, 1, 2textbackslashmod4 , or n=1+⌊j/2⌋n = 1 + textbackslashlfloorj/2textbackslashrfloor if j=3mod4 j = 3textbackslashmod4 .

Abstract: The objective of this study is to evaluate to approaches assisting the translation of SNOMED CT into French. Two types of approaches were combined: a concept-based one, which relies on conceptual information of the UMLS Metathesaurus and a lexical-based one, which relieson NLP techniques. In addition to the French terminologies (whether included in UMLS or not). Using the concept-based approach, a set of 156,157 (39.4 SNOMED CT terms were translated to at least one French term from UMLS. Expanded to the French terms from UMLS terminologies translated by CISMeF, 2,548 (+0.7 additional SNOMED CT terms were translated to at least one French term. Using the lexical-based approach, a set of 145,737 (36.8 SNOMED CT terms were translated to at least one French term from HeTOP. The qualitative evaluation showed that 44% of the translations were rated as "relevant". Overall, the two approaches have provided the translation of 168,750 (42.6 SNOMED CT terms into French using different bilingual terminological sources included in UMLS or in HeTOP.

Abstract: The suffix tree of alignment is an index data structure for similar strings. Given an alignment of similar strings, it stores all suffixes of the alignment, called alignment-suffixes. An alignment-suffix represents one suffix of a string or suffixes of multiple strings starting at the same position in the alignment. The suffix tree of alignment makes good use of similarity in strings theoretically. However, suffix trees are not widely used in biological applications because of their huge space requirements, and instead suffix arrays are used in practice. In this paper we propose a space-economical version of the suffix tree of alignment, named the suffix array of alignment (SAA). Given an alignment ρ of similar strings, the SAA for ρ is a lexicographically sorted list of all the alignment-suffixes of ρ. The SAA supports pattern search as efficiently as the generalized suffix array. Our experiments show that our index uses only 14% of the space used by the generalized suffix array to index 11 human genome sequences. The space efficiency of our index increases as the number of the genome sequences increases. We also present an efficient algorithm for constructing the SAA.

Abstract: PubMed contains many articles in languages other than English but it is difficult to find them using the English version of the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) Thesaurus. The aim of this work is to propose a tool allowing access to a PubMed subset in one language, and to evaluate its performance. Translations of MeSH were enriched and gathered in the information system. PubMed subsets in main European languages were also added in our database, using a dedicated parser. The CISMeF generic semantic search engine was evaluated on the response time for simple queries. MeSH descriptors are currently available in 11 languages in the information system. All the 654,000 PubMed citations in French were integrated into CISMeF database. None of the response times exceed the threshold defined for usability (2 seconds). It is now possible to freely access biomedical literature in French using a tool in French; health professionals and lay people with a low English language may find it useful. It will be expended to several European languages: German, Spanish, Norwegian and Portuguese.

Abstract: The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is a controlled vocabulary which provides phenotype data related to genes or diseases. The Health Terminology/Ontology Portal (HeTOP) is a tool dedicated to both human beings and computers to access and browse biomedical terminologies or ontologies (T/O). The objective of this work was to integrate the HPO into HeTOP in order to enhance both works. This integration is a success and allows users to search and browse the HPO with a dedicated interface. Furthermore, the HPO has been enhanced with the addition of content such as new synonyms, translations, mappings. Integrating T/O such as the HPO into HeTOP is a benefit to vocabularies because it allows enrichment of them and it is also a benefit for HeTOP which provides a better service to both humans and machines.

Abstract: The concept-oriented structure of the MeSH® thesaurus is not yet in common use. Nevertheless, it has been shown that a concept-based querying of PubMed may be of interest. To take full advantage of the concept-oriented structure of MeSH in the information retrieval tool associated with the CISMeF catalogue, it was necessary to translate such concepts into French.

Abstract: Thirty-four metals were analyzed by ICP-MS. Among these elements, anthropogenic silver, gadolinium and platinum, were representative markers of medical activities in hospital and urban wastewater. On working days, median hospital wastewater concentrations for anthropogenic silver, gadolinium, and platinum were approximately three, 13 and 27 times higher respectively than the Municipal wastewater. A drastic reduction of their emission was observed during non-working days (minus 94 % for gadolinium and 87 % for platinum). A large percentage of these metals are not trapped in the Treatment Plant, i.e. 88 % for gadolinium and 69 % for platinum. More than 4 kg and 350 g for gadolinium and platinum are respectively discharged per year in the River Seine. Therefore, it is imperative to eliminate these elements in the Plant.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: PubMed is the main access to medical literature on the Internet. In order to enhance the performance of its information retrieval tools, primarily non-indexed citations, the authors propose a method: expanding users' queries using Unified Medical Language System's (UMLS) synonyms i.e. all the terms gathered under one unique Concept Unique Identifier.
METHODS: This method was evaluated using queries constructed to emphasize the differences between this new method and the current PubMed automatic term mapping. Four experts assessed citation relevance.
RESULTS: Using UMLS, we were able to retrieve new citations in 45.5% of queries, which implies a small increase in recall. The new strategy led to a heterogeneous 23.7% mean increase in non-indexed citation retrieved. Of these, 82% have been published less than 4 months earlier. The overall mean precision was 48.4% but differed according to the evaluators, ranging from 36.7% to 88.1% (Inter rater agreement was poor: kappa = 0.34).
CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the need for specific search tools for each type of user and use-cases. The proposed strategy may be useful to retrieve recent scientific advancement.

Abstract: Objectives: To analyze the attitude of physicians towards alertin g in CPOE systems in different hospitals in different countries, addressing various organizational and technical settings and the view of physicians not currently using a CPOE.Methods: A cross-sectional quantitative and qualitative questionnaire survey. We invited 2,600 physicians in eleven hospitals from nine countries to participate. Eight of the hospitals had different CPOE systems in use, and three of the participating hospitals were not using a CPOE system.Results: 1,018 physicians participated. The general attitude of the physicians towards CPOE alerting is positive and is found to be mostly independent of the country, the specific organizational settings in the hospitals and their personal experience with CPOE systems. Both quantitative and qualitative results show that the majority of the physicians, both CPOE-users and non-users, appreciate the benefits of alerting in CPOE systems on medication safety. However, alerting should be better adapted to the clinical context and make use of more sophisticated ways to present alert information. The vast majority of physicians agree that additional information regarding interactions is useful on demand. Around half of the respondents see possible alert overload as a major problem; in this regard, physicians in hospitals with sophisticated alerting strategies show partly better attitude scores.Conclusions: Our results indicate that the way alerting information is presented to the physicians may play a role in their general attitude towards alerting, and that hospitals with a sophisticated alerting strategy with less interruptive alerts tend towards more positive attitudes. This aspect needs to be further investigated in future studies.

Abstract: textlessptextgreatertextlessbr/textgreaterRecently new algorithms appeared for updating the Burrows-Wheeler Transform or the suffix array, when the text they index is modified. These algorithms proceed by reordering entries and the number of such reordered entries may be as high as the length of the text. However, in practice, these algorithms are faster for updating the Burrows-Wheeler Transform or the suffix array than the fastest reconstruction algorithms.textlessbr/textgreaterIn this article we focus on the number of elements to be reordered for real-life texts. We show that this number is related to LCP values and that, on average, Lave entries are reordered, where Lave denotes the average LCP value, defined as the average length of the longest common prefix between two consecutive sorted suffixes. Since we know little about the LCP distribution for real-life texts, we conduct experiments on a corpus that consists of DNA sequences and natural language texts. The results show that apart from texts containing large repetitions, the average LCP value is close to the one expected on a random text.textless/ptextgreater

Abstract: Background Research on return to work (RTW) is increasing. It is important to benefit from studies originating from different countries since certain factors influencing the RTW process are specific to each country.Aims To compare RTW research in Europe with the USA and to describe research on RTW in Europe.Methods Medline was scanned with specific search strings to identify studies concerning RTW in Europe, in the USA and in the rest of the world. Characteristics of the European studies were analyzed with two specific tools for bibliometrics research.Results Four thousand five hundred and twenty-five studies were identified (1100, 1005 and 2420 coming from Europe, the USA and the rest of the world, respectively). The European countries producing the greatest number of research papers standardized for population of that country were Sweden, the Netherlands, Finland and Denmark. Sweden was 5.7 times more prolific than the USA. Specialties covered by the European publications included occupational medicine (the subject of 66% of the articles), neurology (36, environment and public health (32, physical medicine and rehabilitation (26 and rheumatology (24.Conclusions There is a worldwide trend upwards in the number of publications on RTW. Europe recently overtook the USA in the number of publications per head of population, although there were large differences in publication rates among the European countries. The publications of European researchers on RTW are spread over a wide variety of journals, making access to this research difficult.

Abstract: Face au patient, le médecin n'a que très peu de temps disponible pour consulter les informations médicales présentes dans le dossier patient, les guides de bonnes pratiques ou les moteurs de recherche médicaux. Une solution à  ce problème consiste à  proposer des outils graphiques visuels permettant au médecin d'accéder très rapidement à  l'information, comme le langage iconique Visualisation des connaissances médicales (VCM) que nous avons proposé, il y a quelques années, pour représenter à  l'aide d'icônes les principaux concepts médicaux : maladies, risques, antécédents, traitements, examens... afin de faciliter la lecture des monographies des médicaments. L'objectif du travail actuel est d'étendre le langage VCM et de proposer de nouvelles applications afin de résoudre les problèmes d'accès à  l'information rencontrés par les médecins. Pour cela, nous avons d'abord analysé les difficultés que les médecins généralistes et hospitaliers rencontre dans cette tà¢che, puis nous en avons déduits les applications possibles et les complémentations nécessaires à  apporter à  VCM. Nous avons ensuite réalisé des prototypes de ces applications, qui sont en cours d'évaluation.

Abstract: Background: The Catalogue of French-speaking health resources available on the Internet (French acronym: CISMeF) is a portal that gathers French medical Web resources (n 90,000). Doc'UMVF is a semantic search engine that allows searching in this database but filtering only medical teaching materials (n=9,697). Currently, Doc'UMVF is based on multi-terminology indexing, consequently, it works with the French (n 500,000) and English terms (n 1,000,000) of the 32 terminologies included in information system (IS). Using terminologies translated in other language than only French and English would allow cross lingual indexing and information retrieval of teaching material. Objective: To make Doc'UMVF working in several languages. Method: Some terminologies integrated in CISMeF IS have been translated in numerous languages (e.g. International classification of disease, tenth revision, is available in 11 languages, Medical Subject Heading in 16 languages, etc). An enhanced version of the IS was necessary to manage multiple translations and Doc'UMVF has to be adapted to this new IS. Results: HeTOP is a portal that allows cross lingual access to multiple terminologies. A semantic search engine based on such tool could be useful in at least two use-cases. First, for resources that exist in numerous languages, like European Medical Agency (EMA) resources, there is only need for one indexing in one language to allow their retrieval in many European languages. Second, this provides a language independent tool: any teacher, whatever his speaking language was, may index his own teaching material in his own language and any student, whatever his speaking language was, may find it. Conclusions: Doc'UMVF will soon work in the new IS. Nevertheless, its natural language processing tools work only in French, therefore its use should be reserved to advanced user (those who know terminologies). There is not too much development to achieve an operational language independent search engine dedicated to teaching material.

Abstract: The Health Terminology/Ontology Portal (HeTOP) was developed to provide easy access to health terminologies and ontologie. The repository is not only dedicated to professionals but is also a valuable teaching tool. Currently, it provides access to thirty two health terminologies and ontologies available mainly in French or in English, but also in German, Italian, Chinese, etc. HeTOP can be used by both humans and computers via Web services. To integrate new resources into HeTOP, three steps are necessary: (1) designing a meta-model into which each terminology (or ontology) can be integrated, (2) developing a process to include terminologies into HeTOP, (3) building and integrating existing and new inter &amp; intra-terminology semantic harmonization into HeTOP. Currently, 600 unique machines use the MeSH version of HeTOP every day and restricted terminologies/ontologies are used for teaching purposes in several medical schools in France. The multilingual version of HeTOP is available (URL: http://hetop.eu/) and provides free access to ICD10 and FMA in ten languages. Conclusion: HeTOP is a rich tool, useful for a wide range of applications and users, especially in education and resource indexing but also in information retrieval or performing audits in terminology management.

Abstract: Because of the ever-increasing amount of information in patients' EHRs, healthcare professionals may face difficulties for making diagnoses and/or therapeutic decisions. Moreover, patients may misunderstand their health status. These medical practitioners need effective tools to locate in real time relevant elements within the patients' EHR and visualize them according to synthetic and intuitive presentation models. The RAVEL project aims at achieving this goal by performing a high profile industrial research and development program on the EHR considering the following areas: (i) semantic indexing, (ii) information retrieval, and (iii) data visualization. The RAVEL project is expected to implement a generic, loosely coupled to data sources prototype so that it can be transposed into different university hospitals information systems.

Abstract: The European Health Terminology/ Ontology Portal (EHTOP) is a repository dedicated to European health professionals and students. Currently, it provides access to terminologies and ontologies available in French or in English, but also in German, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, Danish and other 17 languages. EHTOP can be used by humans and by computers via Web services. The main objective of EHTOP is to provide an access to terminologies and ontologies, allowing dynamic browsing and navigation. Methods: To integrate terminologies and ontologies into EHTOP, three steps are necessary: (1) designing a meta-model into which each terminology and ontology can be integrated, (2) developing a process to include terminologies into EHTOP, (3) building and integrating existing and new inter & intra-terminology semantic harmonization into EHTOP. Results: EHTOP is available freely for the ICD-10 and the FMA (URL: http://www.ehtop.eu/). The access to other terminologies/ontologies (MeSH, SNOMED CT, WHO-ATC, ...) is restricted and available only for the scientific community. A total of 32 terminologies are included into EHTOP, with 980,000 concepts, 2,300,000 synonyms, 222,800 definitions and 4,000,000 relations. Since January 2010, the bilingual version of EHTOP is daily used by CISMeF librarians to index health resources in the CISMeF catalogue in a multi-terminology mode. Currently, 600 unique machines are using this bilingual version, whereas 300 users are already registered. Conclusion: EHTOP is a rich tool, useful for a wide range of applications and users for educational purpose, resources indexing, information retrieval or performing audits in terminology management.

Abstract: The question of read indexing remains broadly unexplored. However, the increase in sequence throughput urges for new algorithmic solutions to query large read collections efficiently. We propose a solution, named Gk arrays, to index large collections of reads, an algorithm to build the structure, and procedures to query it. Once constructed, the index structure is kept in main memory and is repeatedly accessed to answer various types of queries. We compare our data structure to other possible solutions to investigate its scalability and computational efficiency. Gk arrays are implemented in a general purpose library, which may prove useful for assembly purposes, for evaluating the expression level in RNA-seq, and others high throughput sequencing applications.

Abstract: BACKGROUND:General practitioners and medical specialists mainly rely on one "general medical" journal to keep their medical knowledge up to date. Nevertheless, it is not known if these journals display the same overview of the medical knowledge in different specialties. The aims of this study were to measure the relative weight of the different specialties in the major journals of general medicine, to evaluate the trends in these weights over a ten-year period and to compare the journals.METHODS:The 14,091 articles published in The Lancet, the NEJM, the JAMA and the BMJ in 1997, 2002 and 2007 were analyzed. The relative weight of the medical specialities was determined by categorization of all the articles, using a categorization algorithm which inferred the medical specialties relevant to each article MEDLINE file from the MeSH terms used by the indexers of the US National Library of Medicine to describe each article.RESULTS:The 14,091 articles included in our study were indexed by 22,155 major MeSH terms, which were categorized into 81 different medical specialties. Cardiology and Neurology were in the first 3 specialties in the 4 journals. Five and 15 specialties were systematically ranked in the first 10 and first 20 in the four journals respectively. Among the first 30 specialties, 23 were common to the four journals. For each speciality, the trends over a 10-year period were different from one journal to another, with no consistency and no obvious explanatory factor.CONCLUSIONS:Overall, the representation of many specialties in the four journals in general and internal medicine included in this study may differ, probably due to different editorial policies. Reading only one of these journals may provide a reliable but only partial overview.

Abstract: BACKGROUND:The identification of patients who pose an epidemic hazard when they are admitted to a health facility plays a role in preventing the risk of hospital acquired infection. An automated clinical decision support system to detect suspected cases, based on the principle of syndromic surveillance, is being developed at the University of Lyon's Hopital de la Croix-Rousse. This tool will analyse structured data and narrative reports from computerized emergency department (ED) medical records. The first step consists of developing an application (UrgIndex) which automatically extracts and encodes information found in narrative reports. The purpose of the present article is to describe and evaluate this natural language processing system.METHODS:Narrative reports have to be pre-processed before utilizing the French-language medical multi-terminology indexer (ECMT) for standardized encoding. UrgIndex identifies and excludes syntagmas containing a negation and replaces non-standard terms (abbreviations, acronyms, spelling errors...). Then, the phrases are sent to the ECMT through an Internet connection. The indexer's reply, based on Extensible Markup Language, returns codes and literals corresponding to the concepts found in phrases. UrgIndex filters codes corresponding to suspected infections. Recall is defined as the number of relevant processed medical concepts divided by the number of concepts evaluated (coded manually by the medical epidemiologist). Precision is defined as the number of relevant processed concepts divided by the number of concepts proposed by UrgIndex. Recall and precision were assessed for respiratory and cutaneous syndromes.RESULTS:Evaluation of 1,674 processed medical concepts contained in 100 ED medical records (50 for respiratory syndromes and 50 for cutaneous syndromes) showed an overall recall of 85.8% (95% CI: 84.1-87.3). Recall varied from 84.5% for respiratory syndromes to 87.0% for cutaneous syndromes. The most frequent cause of lack of processing was non-recognition of the term by UrgIndex (9.7. Overall precision was 79.1% (95% CI: 77.3-80.8). It varied from 81.4% for respiratory syndromes to 77.0% for cutaneous syndromes.CONCLUSIONS:This study demonstrates the feasibility of and interest in developing an automated method for extracting and encoding medical concepts from ED narrative reports, the first step required for the detection of potentially infectious patients at epidemic risk.

Abstract: BACKGROUND:The Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) is the reference ontology regarding human anatomy. FMA vocabulary was integrated into the Health Multi Terminological Portal (HMTP) developed by CISMeF based on the CISMeF Information System which also includes 26 other terminologies and controlled vocabularies, mainly in French. However, FMA is primarily in English. In this context, the translation of FMA English terms into French could also be useful for searching and indexing French anatomy resources. Various studies have investigated automatic methods to assist the translation of medical terminologies or create multilingual medical vocabularies. The goal of this study was to facilitate the translation of FMA vocabulary into French.METHODS:We compare two types of approaches to translate the FMA terms into French. The rst one is UMLS-based on the conceptual information of the UMLS metathesaurus. The second method is lexically-based on several Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools.RESULTS:The UMLS-based approach produced a translation of 3,661 FMA terms into French whereas the lexical approach produced a translation of 3,129 FMA terms into French. A qualitative evaluation was made on 100 FMA terms translated by each method. For the UMLS-based approach, among the 100 translations, 52% were manually rated as "very good" and only 7% translations as "bad". For the lexical approach, among the 100 translations, 47% were rated as "very good" and 20% translations as "bad".CONCLUSIONS:Overall, a low rate of translations were demonstrated by the two methods. The two approaches permitted us to semi-automatically translate 3,776 FMA terms from English into French, this was to added to the existing 10,844 French FMA terms in the HMTP (4,436 FMA French terms and 6,408 FMA terms manually translated).

Abstract: BACKGROUND:High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) is now heavily exploited for genome (re-)sequencing, metagenomics, epigenomics, and transcriptomics and requires different, but computer intensive bioinformatic analyses. When a reference genome is available, mapping reads on it is the first step of this analysis. Read mapping programs owe their efficiency to the use of involved genome indexing data structures, like the Burrows-Wheeler transform. Recent solutions index both the genome, and the k-mers of the reads using hash-tables to further increase efficiency and accuracy. In various contexts (e.g. assembly or transcriptome analysis), read processing requires to determine the sub-collection of reads that are related to a given sequence, which is done by searching for some k-mers in the reads. Currently, many developments have focused on genome indexing structures for read mapping, but the question of read indexing remains broadly unexplored. However, the increase in sequence throughput urges for new algorithmic solutions to query large read collections efficiently. RESULTS:Here, we present a solution, named Gk arrays, to index large collections of reads, an algorithm to build the structure, and procedures to query it. Once constructed, the index structure is kept in main memory and is repeatedly accessed to answer queries like "given a k-mer, get the reads containing this k-mer (once/at least once)". We compared our structure to other solutions that adapt uncompressed indexing structures designed for long texts and show that it processes queries fast, while requiring much less memory. Our structure can thus handle larger read collections. We provide examples where such queries are adapted to different types of read analysis (SNP detection, assembly, RNA-Seq). CONCLUSIONS:Gk arrays constitute a versatile data structure that enables fast and more accurate read analysis in various contexts. The Gk arrays provide a flexible brick to design innovative programs that mine efficiently genomics, epigenomics, metagenomics, or transcriptomics reads. The Gk arrays library is available under Cecill (GPL compliant) license from http://www.atgc-montpellier.fr/ngs/.

Abstract: Contexte La prolifération des documents liés à la santé des individus pose aujourd'hui le problème de leur indexation et de leur recherche dans de vastes bases de données.Objectif Si l'on veut indexer d'autres types de documents que des documents pédagogiques ou de la documentation scientifique, il faut être capable d'indexer des comptes rendus cliniques, des résultats d'examens, des courriers, etc.Matériel et méthode Des terminologies à visées différentes sont alors utilisées : la SNOMED pour le codage d'informations cliniques, la CIM-10 et la CCAM pour le codage épidémiologique et médico-économique, la CISP utilisée par les médecins généralistes, etc. Le but d'InterSTIS était de les unifier et de les rendre interopérables au sein d'un « serveur terminologique multi-sources ». InterSTIS exploite des sources de connaissance de UMLS issues de la National Library of Medicine des États-Unis pour rendre ces terminologies interopérables.Résultat Un serveur terminologique multi-sources opérationnel apte à délivrer des services à des utilisateurs et à des applications. InterSTIS a commencé en janvier 2008 et s'est fini en décembre 2010.

Abstract: Background: the Core Subset of SNOMED CT is part of the UMLS-Core Project dedicated to study problem list vocabularies. SNOMED CT is not yet translated into French. Objective: to propose an automated method to assist the translation of the CORE Subset of SNOMED CT into French. Material: the 2009 AA versions of the CORE Subset of SNOMED CT and UMLS; use of four French-language terminologies integrated into the UMLS Metathesaurus: SNOMED International, ICD10, MedDRA, and MeSH. Method: an exact mapping completed by a close mapping between preferred terms of the CORE Subset of SNOMED CT and those of the four terminologies. Results: 89% of the preferred terms of the CORE Subset of SNOMED CT are mapped with at least one preferred term in one of the four terminologies. Discussion: if needed, synonymous terms could be added by the means of synonyms in the terminologies; the proposed method is independent from French and could be applied to other natural languages.

Abstract: Background: Following a recent change in the indexing policy for French quality controlled health gateway CISMeF, multiple terminologies are now being used for indexing in addition to MeSH®. Objective: To evaluate precision and recall of super-concepts for information retrieval in a multi-terminology paradigm compared to MeSH-only. Methods: We evaluate the relevance of resources retrieved by multi-terminology super-concepts and MeSH-only super-concepts queries. Results: Recall was 8-14% higher for multi-terminology super-concepts compared to MeSH only super-concepts. Precision decreased from 0.66 for MeSH only super-concepts to 0.61 for multi-terminology super-concepts. Retrieval performance was found to vary significantly depending on the super-concepts (p<10-4) and indexing methods (manual vs automatic; p<0.004). Conclusion: A multi-terminology paradigm contributes to increase recall but lowers precision. Automated tools for indexing are not accurate enough to allow a very precise information retrieval.

Abstract: This paper describes the first steps of development of a rule-based system that automatically processes medical records in order to discover possible cases of hospital acquired infections (HAI). The system takes as input a set of patient records in electronic format and gives as output, for each document, information regarding HAI. In order to achieve this goal, a temporal processing together with a deep syntactic and semantic analysis of the patient records is performed. Medical knowledge used by the rules is derived from a set of documents that have been annotated by medical doctors. After a brief description of the context of this work, we present the general architecture of our document processing chain and explain how we perform our temporal and linguistic analysis. Finally, we report our preliminary results and we lay out the next steps of the project.

Abstract: textlessptextgreatertextlessbr/textgreaterWe design an algorithm to count the number of distinct palindromes in a word w in time O(w), by adapting an algorithm to detect all occurrences of maximal palindromes in a given word and using the longest previous factor array. As a direct consequence, this shows that the palindromic richness (or fullness) of a word can be checked in linear time.textless/ptextgreater

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Most occupational health physicians access electronic databases to obtain reliable medical information. Although it is demonstrated that the use of Medline alone does not ensure comprehensiveness, many experts rely solely on this database. Our study aimed to discover to what extent the physician who limits his/her search to Medline misses studies of high quality. METHODS: We constructed a "gold standard" database of high-quality intervention studies gathering all the references included in the systematic reviews of the Cochrane Library and indexed under the topic "occupational health field". We then searched all these references, one by one, in Medline. RESULTS: Overall, 88.8% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 86.1-91.5] of the high quality studies included in our gold standard database were indexed in Medline. References included in reviews on psychiatric or psychological topics were significantly less often indexed in Medline [81.7% (95% CI 75.9-88.5)] than references included in reviews on other topics [92.2% (95% CI 89.5-95.0)] (P=0.001). CONCLUSION: The recall ratio of Medline for high-quality intervention studies is close to 90 For occupational health practitioners who aim to find reliable answers to their daily practice questions, searching Medline only is more cost-effective than previously thought.

Abstract: We summarize the major points of international debate on health risk studies for the main commercialized edible GMOs. These GMOs are soy, maize and oilseed rape designed to contain new pesticide residues since they have been modified to be herbicide-tolerant (mostly to Roundup) or to produce mutated Bt toxins. The debated alimentary chronic risks may come from unpredictable insertional mutagenesis effects, metabolic effects, or from the new pesticide residues. The most detailed regulatory tests on the GMOs are three-month long feeding trials of laboratory rats, which are biochemically assessed. The tests are not compulsory, and are not independently conducted. The test data and the corresponding results are kept in secret by the companies. Our previous analyses of regulatory raw data at these levels, taking the representative examples of three GM maize NK 603, MON 810, and MON 863 led us to conclude that hepatorenal toxicities were possible, and that longer testing was necessary. Our study was criticized by the company developing the GMOs in question and the regulatory bodies, mainly on the divergent biological interpretations of statistically significant biochemical and physiological effects. We present the scientific reasons for the crucially different biological interpretations and also highlight the shortcomings in the experimental protocols designed by the company. The debate implies an enormous responsibility towards public health and is essential due to nonexistent traceability or epidemiological studies in the GMO-producing countries.

Abstract: Background: Orphanet aims to provide rare disease information to healthcare professionals, patients, and their relatives. Objective: The objective of this work is to evaluate two methodologies (UMLS and manual Orphanet-ICD-10 link-based mapping & String Based matching) used to map Orphanet thesaurus to the MeSH thesaurus. Results: On a corpus of 375 mappings, the string based matching provides significantly better results than the UMLS and manual Orphanet-ICD-10 link-based mapping. Conclusion: String based matching could be applied to any biomedical terminology in French not yet included into UMLS.

Abstract: Les réglettes de Genaille et Lucas ont été inventées par l'ingénieur Henri Genaille en 1885 sur une proposition du mathématicien Édouard Lucas. Il existe des réglettes pour les multiplications et pour les divisions entières. Ces réglettes furent beaucoup utilisées jusque dans les années 1920, période d'apparition des règles à calcul qui précédèrent les calculatrices. Les réglettes présentées dans ce document permettent d'effectuer rapidement de grandes multiplications ou divisions sans calculer de tête. Nous expliquons comment les manipuler et les construire.

Abstract: Background: CCAM is a French terminology for coding clinical procedures. CCAM is a multi-hierarchical structured classification for procedures used in France for reimbursement in health care, which is external to UMLS. Objective: The objective of this work is to describe a French lexical approach allowing mapping CCAM procedures to the UMLS Metathesaurus to achieve interoperability to multiple international terminologies. This approach used a preliminary step intended to take only the significant characters used to code CCAM corresponding to anatomical and actions axes. Results: According to the 7,926 CCAM codes used in this study, 5,212 possible matches (exact matching, single to multiple matching, partial matching) are found using the French CCAM to UMLS based mapping, 65% of the corresponding anatomical terms in the CCAM code are mapped to at least one UMLS Concept and 37% of the corresponding action terms in the CCAM code are mapped to at least one UMLS Concept. For all the exact matches found (n=200), 91% were rated by a human expert as narrower than the mapped UMLS Concepts, while only 3% were irrelevant.

Abstract: The lack of interoperability between repositories of heterogeneous and geographically widespread data is an obstacle to the diffusion, sharing and reutilization of those data. We present the development of an open repositories network taking into account both the syntactic and semantic interoperability of the different repositories and based on international standards in this field. The network is used by the medical community in France for the diffusion and sharing of digital teaching resources. The syntactic interoperability of the repositories is managed using the OAI-PMH protocol for the exchange of metadata describing the resources. Semantic interoperability is based, on one hand, on the LOM standard for the description of resources and on MESH for the indexing of the latter and, on the other hand, on semantic interoperability management designed to optimize compliance with standards and the quality of the metadata.

Abstract: Representing the Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) in OWL 2 W3C standard, is essential for its interoperability with other biomedical ontologies, its design, maintenance, and quality insurance. The paper describes the method and 'FMA-OWLizer' tool that moves the FMA to OWL 2. One main strength of the approach is to leverage OWL expressiveness to explicit some implicit semantics and naming conventions of the FMA, meanwhile improving its ontological model and fixing some FMA errors. Another originality is the flexibility and versatility of the conversion: many options allow for producing several FMA-OWL variants customized to users, e.g., choosing a frame or OWL source, generating an OWL DL or OWL 2, a full or reduced FMA target, configuring the classes definitions etc. Thus several new FMA-OWL ontologies are available. To the best of our knowledge, no complete representation of the entire FMA in OWL DL or OWL 2 existed so far.

Abstract: The aim is to highlight how it is possible to reconcile ontologies and terminologies in Life Sciences via metamodeling. The paper focuses on the Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA). The first part describes the FMA ontology formalization in OWL 2. The second part presents the Health Multi-Terminologies Portal (HMTP) of French terminologies implemented in OWL. It explains how its FMA terminology was obtained from the FMA ontology by reification. The FMA ontology and terminology illustrate how ontologies and terminologies can be made compatible via metamodeling. Advantages and possible means to bind the two views even more closely are discussed in conclusion. To the best of our knowledge, no complete representation of the FMA ontology and terminology in OWL 2 existed so far.

Abstract: Introduction The purpose of this study was to report on the qualities of various search strategies and keywords to find return to work (RTW) studies in the Medline bibliographic database. Methods We searched Medline for articles on RTW published in 2003, using multiple search strings, and hand searched 16 major periodicals of rehabilitation or occupational medicine. Among the retrieved articles, those considered to be relevant, were pooled in a Gold Standard Database. From this database, we identified candidate text words or MeSH terms for search strategies using a word frequency analysis of the abstracts and a MEDLINE categorization algorithm. According to the frequency of identified terms, searches were run for each term independently and in combination. We computed Recall, Precision, and number needed to read (NNR = 1/Precision) of each keyword or combination of keywords. Results Among the 8,073 articles examined, 314 (3.9 were considered relevant and included in the Gold Standard Database. The search strings ("Rehabilitation, Vocational" [MeSH]), ("Return to work"[All]) and ("Back to work"[All]) had Recall/Precision ratio of 30.46/19.11, 59.55/87.38 and 3.18/90.91 respectively. Their combination with the Boolean operator OR yielded to a Recall/Precision ratio of 73.89/58.44% and a NNR of 1.7. For the end user requiring comprehensive literature search, the best string was ("Return to work" OR "Back to work" OR "Rehabilitation, vocational"[MeSH] OR "rehabilitation"[Subheading]), with a Recall of 88.22% and a NNR of 18. Conclusions No single MeSH term is available to help the physician to identify relevant studies on RTW in Medline. Locating these types of studies requires the use of various MeSH and non-MeSH terms in combination to obtain a satisfactory Recall. Nevertheless, enhancing the Recall of search strategies may lead to lower Precision, and higher NNR, although with a non linear trend. This factor must be taken into consideration by the end user in order to improve the cost-effectiveness ratio of the search in Medline.

Abstract: One model to present the metabolic networks is defined. This model based on Petri Nets (PNs), represents the metabolic network in qualitative manner and offers an appropriate expression to the structural analysis. The related previous works consist in using the PNs for simulating. A detailed qualitative analysis should be done before a quantitative (kinetic) analysis is made. This paper firstly extend construction strategy of Petri net model in considering data types in places( internal or external metabolite) and the types of transitions(reversible or irreversible reaction) to allow pathway analysis. Secondly, as pathway analysis of large metabolic networks meets with the problem of combinatorial explosion of pathways we propose to deconstruct metabolic networks into subnetworks based on the global network structure. So we propose to use a centrality measure based on shortest paths linking. To do this we give a new definition of reactions graph as a depending graph.

Abstract: Chronic health effects are increasing in the world such as cancers, hormonal, reproductive, nervous, or immune diseases, even in young people. During regulatory toxicological subchronic tests to prevent these on mammalian health, prior commercialization of chemicals, including pesticides and drugs, or GMOs, some statistically significant findings may be revealed. This discussion is about the need to investigate the relevant criteria to consider those as biologically significant. The sex differences and the non linear dose or time related effects should be considered in contrast to the claims of a Monsanto-supported expert panel about a GMO, the MON 863 Bt maize, but also for pesticides or drugs, in particular to reveal hormone-dependent diseases and first signs of toxicities.

Abstract: We present for the first time a comparative analysis of blood and organ system data from trials with rats fed three main commercialized genetically modified (GM) maize (NK 603, MON 810, MON 863), which are present in food and feed in the world. NK 603 has been modified to be tolerant to the broad spectrum herbicide Roundup and thus contains residues of this formulation. MON 810 and MON 863 are engineered to synthesize two different Bt toxins used as insecticides. Approximately 60 different biochemical parameters were classified per organ and measured in serum and urine after 5 and 14 weeks of feeding. GM maize-fed rats were compared first to their respective isogenic or parental non-GM equivalent control groups. This was followed by comparison to six reference groups, which had consumed various other non-GM maize varieties. We applied nonparametric methods, including multiple pairwise comparisons with a False Discovery Rate approach. Principal Component Analysis allowed the investigation of scattering of different factors (sex, weeks of feeding, diet, dose and group). Our analysis clearly reveals for the 3 GMOs new side effects linked with GM maize consumption, which were sex- and often dose-dependent. Effects were mostly associated with the kidney and liver, the dietary detoxifying organs, although different between the 3 GMOs. Other effects were also noticed in the heart, adrenal glands, spleen and haematopoietic system. We conclude that these data highlight signs of hepatorenal toxicity, possibly due to the new pesticides specific to each GM corn. In addition, unintended direct or indirect metabolic consequences of the genetic modification cannot be excluded.

Abstract: SIGAPS is a bibliometric score that aims at making an inventory, evaluating and promoting scientific publications of hospitals that perform research. It has become a major stake in France since it is one of the most important components of the MERRI (Mission Training, Research, Reference and Innovation) founding of hospitals. This score is based on the points attributed to the authors of articles published in journals indexed in Medline, according to the rank of the authors and the Impact Factor of the journal. OBJECTIVES: to compare the reliability of the score when applying different way of computing it, and different weights for the rank or the Impact Factor. MATERIAL AND METHODS: we computed the scores of all the physicians of a University Hospital, using the rules that are actually applied at the national level. We then used 4 different scenarios, with different weight given to the rank of authors or the Impact Factor. We compared the scores obtained by each author according to the different scenarios with the Spearman's rank and Pearson's correlation coefficients. RESULTS: The score is not significantly affected when no points are given to the fourth authors and above, when the last author get more points or to change the points according to the Impact Factor of the journal. CONCLUSION: The different scenarios do not lead to significant changes for the physicians' scores, and therefore for the cumulated score of the hospital. Despite the well known limits of bibliometric indicators, the SIGAPS score appears reliable to compare the hospitals for founding decisions.

Abstract: The 2004 statute that created the French National Authority for Health (HAS, Haute Autorité de Santé) required it to establish a procedure for the certification of health-related web sites. The HAS established a procedure based on the HONcode certification scheme set up by the Health On the Net Foundation, with which HAS has a partnership agreement. The HONcode includes eight principles that govern the quality of online heath information and its presentation (quality of the production process). The collaboration between HAS and HON has already led to improvements in a large number of web sites in France and to their certification. The main advantages of certification for site publishers are better site quality and enhanced credibility rather than a larger audience. Quality certification has little impact on the choice of site by Internet users as they tend to use search engines to find health-related information. Future development of the procedure should work to increase the value of certification both by improving the quality of sites and in signaling quality to Internet users.

Abstract: Adverse Drug Events (ADE) represent a key problem in Public Health. The detection and prevention of ADE is a real challenge for hospitals and healthcare professionals. Healthcare Information and Communication Technologies can contribute to reduce the incidence of preventable ADE. During this workshop, we will discuss the various aspects of detection of ADE through methods like data and semantic mining in medical databases; the possibility of preventing ADE by using clinical decision support systems; the importance of Human Factors Engineering and the contextualization of knowledge. Examples and demonstrations will come from the European Project PSIP, devoted to the detection and prevention of ADE in Hospitals.

Abstract: Background: In the specific context of developing quality-controlled health gateways, several standards must be respected (e.g. Dublin Core for metadata element set; thesaurus MeSH as the controlled vocabulary to index Internet resources; HON code to accredit quality of health Web sites). These standards were applied to create the CISMeF Web site (French acronym for Catalog & Index of Health Internet resources in French). Objective: In this work, the strategic shift of the CISMeF team is intended to index and retrieve French resources not anymore with a single terminology (MeSH thesaurus) but with the main health terminologies available in French (ICD 10, SNOMED International, CCAM, ATC). Methods & Results: Since 2005, we have developed the French Multi-Terminology Indexer (F-MTI), using a multi-terminology approach and mappings between health terminologies. This tool is used for automatic indexing and information retrieval. Conclusion: Since the last quarter of 2008, F-MTI is daily used in the CISMeF production environment and is connected to a French Health Multi-Terminology Server.

Abstract: Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) indexing enables to extract all the information needed to analyze a prescription and find some inappropriate medications. We evaluate a French Multi-Terminology Indexer tool (F-MTI) for SPC automatic indexing. This tool uses a dictionary containing the textual forms that are likely to appear in natural language text for the drug clinical particular terms contained in the Vidal thesaurus (TUV). We developed a method to automatically generate this dictionary. The evaluation showed a precision of 52.9% and a recall of 46.2%. F-MTI will be integrated in a semi-automatic indexing tool.

Abstract: Objective: The objective of this work is to create a bilingual (French/English) Drug Information Portal (DIP), in a multi-terminological context and to emphasize its exploitation by an ATC automatic indexing allowing having more pertinent information about substances, organs or systems on which drugs act and their therapeutic and chemical characteristics. Methods: The development of the DIP was based on the CISMeF portal, which catalogues and indexes the most important and quality-controlled sources of institutional health information in French. DIP has created specific functionalities and uses specific drugs terminologies such as the ATC classification which used to automatic index the DIP resources. Results: DIP is the result of collaboration between the CISMeF team and the VIDAL Company, specialized in drug information. DIP is conceived to facilitate the user information retrieval. The ATC automatic indexing provided relevant results in 76% of cases. Conclusion: Using multi-terminological context and in the framework of the drug field, indexing drugs with the appropriate codes or/and terms revealed to be very important to have the appropriate information storage and retrieval. The main challenge in the coming year is to increase the accuracy of the approach.

Abstract: We present a new efficient algorithm for exact matching in encoded DNA sequences and on binary strings. Our algorithm combines a multi-pattern version of the Bndm algorithm and a simplified version of the Commentz-Walter algorithm. We performed also experimental comparisons with the most efficient algorithms presented in the literature. Experimental results show that the newly presented algorithm outperforms existing solutions in most cases.

Abstract: This year the Annual Symposiumon Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM) celebrates its 20th anniversary. Over the last two decades the Symposium has established itself as the most recognized international forum for research in combinatorial pattern matching and related applications. Contributions to the conference typically address issues of searching and matching strings and more complex patterns such as trees, regular expressions, graphs, point sets, and arrays. Advances in this field rely on the ability to expose combinatorial properties of the computational problem at hand and to exploit these properties in order to either achieve superior performance or identify conditions underwhich searches cannot be performed efficiently. The meeting also dealswith combinatorial problems in computational biology, data compression, data mining, coding, information retrieval, natural language processing and pattern recognition.

Abstract: The binary string matching problem consists in finding all the occurrences of a pattern in a text where both strings are built on a binary alphabet. This is an interesting problem in computer science, since binary data are omnipresent in telecom and computer network applications. Moreover the problem finds applications also in the field of image processing and in pattern matching on compressed texts. Recently it has been shown that adaptations of classical exact string matching algorithms are not very efficient on binary data. In this paper we present two efficient algorithms for the problem adapted to completely avoid any reference to bits allowing to process pattern and text byte by byte. Experimental results show that the new algorithms outperform existing solutions in most cases.

Abstract: One of the most significant recent advances in health information systems has been the shift from paper to electronic documents. While research on automatic text and image processing has taken separate paths, there is a growing need for joint efforts, particularly for electronic health records and biomedical literature databases. This work aims at comparing text-based versus image-based access to multimodal medical documents using state-of-the-art methods of processing text and image components. A collection of 180 medical documents containing an image accompanied by a short text describing it was divided into training and test sets. Content-based image analysis and natural language processing techniques are applied individually and combined for multimodal document analysis. The evaluation consists of an indexing task and a retrieval task based on the "gold standard" codes manually assigned to corpus documents. The performance of text-based and image-based access, as well as combined document features, is compared. Image analysis proves more adequate for both the indexing and retrieval of the images. In the indexing task, multimodal analysis outperforms both independent image and text analysis. This experiment shows that text describing images can be usefully analyzed in the framework of a hybrid text/image retrieval system.

Abstract: Over the last decade, Internet has become a significant source of information in numerous fields, including health. The French heath -catalogue CISMeF provides medical documents indexing and searching capabilities. The images represent a significant portion of the on-line medical knowledge and a valuable component of diagnosis and teaching. To enrich the Doc'CISMeF search engine with a "search -by-image-criteria" capability, we developed the MedIC module to allow the users to search for documents using image-related criteria. To extract accurate image descriptors, the MedIC architecture takes into consideration both the image itself and the corresponding image-related textregions. In this paper we present our approach for text-region extraction and interpretation, as well as the results obtained for image medical modality extraction.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to study the use of the Internet and the quality of the websites for postgraduate public health courses in France, and to compare them with equivalent courses in the United States of America. Between June 2004 and January 2005, the authorized public health diplomas proposed in France and in the United States were inventoried and listed, and then all websites of these public health diplomas were systematically visited and reviewed using a standardized questionnaire. In France, 36 public health courses (7 post graduate diplomas [DEA], 13 Masters degrees [DESS] and 16 masters of public health [MPH]) were identified and selected from 53 websites. Information on student profiles, prerequisite skills, the courses' curricula and program descriptions and the potential career opportunities were more frequently available for the MPH compared to the DEA and DESS. In United States, 66 MPH and 127 Master of Science in Public Health (MSPH) programs were accredited. The target public and validation methods were more often indicated on the American sites, while the prerequisite skills were more frequently found on the French sites. The recent implementation of the LMD (Bachelor's-Masters-Doctoral degrees) education system in France has encouraged the utilisation of Internet as an information and communications tool for the presentation and marketing of these new diplomas.

Abstract: Objectives: The aim of this study is to provide to indexers MeSH terms to be considered as major ones in a list of terms automatically extracted from a document. Material and methods: We propose a method combining symbolic knowledge - the UMLS Metathesaurus and Semantic Network - and statistical knowledge drawn from co-occurrences of terms in the CISMeF database (a French-language quality-controlled health gateway) using data mining measures. The method was tested on CISMeF corpus of 293 resources. Results: There was a proportion of 0.37 0.26 major terms in the processed records. The method produced lists of terms with a proportion of terms initially pointed out as major of 0.54 0.31. Discussion: The method we propose reduces the number of terms, which seem not useful for content description of resources, such as ?check tags?, but retains the most descriptive ones. Discarding these terms is accounted for by: 1) the removal by using semantic knowledge of associations of concepts bearing no real medical significance, 2) the removal by using statistical knowledge of nonstatistically significant associations of terms. Conclusion: This method can assist effectively indexers in their daily work and will be soon applied in the CISMeF system.

Abstract: Among the numerous new functionalities of the Internet, commonly called Web 2.0, Web syndication illustrates the trend for better and faster information sharing. Web feeds (a.k.a RSS feeds), which were used mostly on weblogs at first, are now also widely used in academic, scientific and institutional websites such as PubMed. As very few French language feeds were listed or catalogued in the Health field by the year of 2007, it was decided to implement them in the quality-controlled health gateway CISMeF ([French] acronym for Catalogue and Index of French Language Health Resources on the Internet). Furthermore, making full use of the nature of Web syndication, a Web feed aggregator was put online in to provide a dynamic news gateway called "CISMeF actualités" (http://www.chu-rouen.fr/actualites/). This article describes the process to retrieve and implement the Web feeds in the catalogue and how its terminology was adjusted to describe this new content. It also describes how the aggregator was put online and the features of this news gateway. CISMeF actualités was built accordingly to the editorial policy of CISMeF. Only a part of the Web feeds of the catalogue were included to display the most authoritative sources. Web feeds were also grouped by medical specialties and by countries using the prior indexing of websites with MeSH terms and the so-called metaterms. CISMeF actualités now displays 131 Web feeds across 40 different medical specialities, coming from 5 different countries. It is one example, among many, that static hypertext links can now easily and beneficially be completed, or replaced, by dynamic display of Web content using syndication feeds.

Abstract: Patient medical record systems (MRS) merely offer static applications, in which mostly unstructured text is linked to coded data. In these applications the more common presentation is a time oriented one, which does not allow easily for data and information retrieval. Concept oriented views based on supper-concepts (metaterms) initially defined in CISMeF to optimize Web medical search, was implemented in our MRS as specialties views. This work shows that these terminological tools are able to facilitate information retrieval.

Abstract: Objective: The neighbors of a document are those documents in a corpus that are most similar to it. The objective of this paper is to develop and evaluate the related resources algorithm (CISMeF-RRA) in the context of a quality-controlled health gateway on the Internet CISMeF. Method: CISMeF-RRA is inspired by the PubMed Related Citations Articles. CISMeF-RRA combines statistical distances with a semantic distance using MeSH terms/qualifiers. Material: In this feasibility study an evaluation was performed using 50 CISMeF resources randomly chosen. Results: Overall, 49% of the related documents were ranked as relevant. Conclusion: if this feasibility study is confirmed by another evaluation of more resources, CISMeF-RRA will be implemented in the CISMeF catalog.

Abstract: Background: In the specific context of French MeSH indexing in an Internet quality-controlled health gateway, we implemented a MeSH automatic indexing tool, the French Multi-Terminology Indexer (F-MTI). It implements a multi-terminology approach using four main medical terminologies in French and the mappings between them. Objective: In this paper, we attempt to determine which of lemmatization or stemming is better to be integrated in F-MTI, and to evaluate an approach using multi-terminologies. Methods: The algorithm was evaluated on a CISMeF corpus comprising 18,814 resources indexed manually. Results: Precision and recall are very close comparing lemmatization and stemming, and mono-terminology and multi-terminology. Conclusion: F-MTI will soon be used in the CISMeF production environment and in a Health MultiTerminology Server in French.

Abstract: The present work aims at discovering new associations between medical concepts to be exploited as input in retrieval and indexing. Material and Methods: Association rules method is applied to documents. The process is carried out on three major document categories referring to e-health information consumers: health professionals, students and lay people. Association rules evaluation is founded on statistical measures combined with domain knowledge. Results: Association rules represent existing relations between medical concepts (60.62%) and new knowledge (54.21%). Based on observations, 463 expert rules are defined by medical librarians for retrieval and indexing. Conclusions: Association rules bear out existing relations, produce new knowledge and support users and indexers in document retrieval and indexing.

Abstract: The UMVF project is a federation of medical teaching resources covering 32 medical schools in France. Today, the indexing of these resources is carried out manually by the CISMeF team at the University Hospital of Rouen. This indexing is based on MeSH thesaurus. We use a subset of SCORM metadata standard. This choice was defined in collaboration with the French Medical Virtual University consortium (French acronym: UMVF). Currently, with the UMVF searching tool (called Doc'UMVF), medical students can reach more than 3300 resources useful in their curriculum. Doc'UMVF is developed in close collaboration between the medical informatics laboratories of Rennes and Rouen. In this paper we present two complementary searching tools based on different methods and which are integrated and used to improve both the relevance and the coverage rate of the answers. A specific searching module has been built to retrieve specific resources concerning the National Medical Exam ENC ("Examen National Classant") is also available. Nevertheless, due to lack of time, numerous resources are not yet indexed. Therefore we have decided to use also automatic indexing method (Nomindex). This approach will be improved by further research works, resulting from Rouen and Geneva teams. After having built a searching meta-motor, our objective is to develop a meta-tool intended to index the whole set of digital pedagogical resources produced by the UMVF framework. This manual re-indexing will be carried out only for the most important resources (national references), with a more or less fine granularity.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The number of citations an article receives after its publication not only reflects its impact on the scientific community, but also the impact of the institutions or countries in the field studied. In 1987, Garfield introduced the concept of "citation classics" for the best-cited articles. An analysis of top-cited articles coming from journals in the field of occupational medicine (eg, Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health) has not yet been reported. The purpose of this study was to assess whether or not such citation classics exist in this field and to analyze their characteristics. METHODS: The most frequently cited articles published in the five major journals in occupational medicine were identified using the database of Science Citation Index Expanded. The data were obtained by searching one year and one journal at a time. All of the articles cited more than 100 times were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 15 553 articles published by the five journals since 1949, only 85 articles had been cited more than 100 times. The oldest had been published in 1950 and the latest in 1997. The United Kingdom contributed 28% of the citation classics and the United States or Sweden produced 19 The most cited article had been cited 979 times. The main topics of articles were metabolism, occupational neoplasms, and work-related musculoskeletal disorders. CONCLUSIONS: Since the 1980s, Scandinavia and the United States have taken the leadership in the publication of citation classic papers. Nevertheless, according to the level of citations, the influence of literature published in occupational medicine journals remains limited.

Abstract: The " Université Médicale Virtuelle Francophone" (UMVF) is a federation of French medical schools. Its main goal is to share the production and use of pedagogic medical resources generated by academic medical teachers. We developed an Open-Source application based upon a workflow system, which provides an improved publication process for the UMVF. For teachers, the tool permits easy and efficient upload of new educational resources. For web masters it provides a mechanism to easily locate and validate the resources. For librarian it provide a way to improve the efficiency of indexation. For all, the utility provides a workflow system to control the publication process. On the students side, the application improves the value of the UMVF repository by facilitating the publication of new resources and by providing an easy way to find a detailed description of a resource and to check any resource from the UMVF to ascertain its quality and integrity, even if the resource is an old deprecated version. The server tier of the application is used to implement the main workflow functionalities and is deployed on certified UMVF servers using the PHP language, an LDAP directory and an SQL database. The client tier of the application provides both the workflow and the search and check functionalities. A unique signature for each resource, was needed to provide security functionality and is implemented using a Digest algorithm. The testing performed by Rennes and Lille verified the functionality and conformity with our specifications.

Abstract: Background: CISMeF is a French quality-controlled health gateway that uses the MeSH thesaurus. We introduced two new concepts, metaterms (medical specialty which has semantic links with one or more MeSH terms, subheadings and resource types) and resource types. Objective: evaluate precision and recall of metaterms. Methods: We created 16 pairs of queries. Each pair concerned the same topic, but one used metaterms and one MeSH terms. To assess precision, each document retrieved by the query was classified as irrelevant, partly relevant or fully relevant. Results: the 16 queries yielded 943 documents for metaterm queries and 139 for MeSH term queries. The recall of MeSH term queries was 0.44 (compared to 1 for metaterm queries) and the precision were identical for MeSH term and metaterm queries. Conclusion: Metaconcept such as CISMeF metaterms allows a better recall with a similar precision that MeSH terms in a quality controlled health gateway.

Abstract: This article presents the Cogni-CISMeF project, which aims at improving medical information search in the CISMeF system by including a conversational agent to interact with the user in natural language. To study the cognitive processes involved during the information search, a bottom-up methodology was adopted. Experiments have been set up to obtain human dialogs dealing with medical information search. The analysis of these dialogs underlined the establishment of a common ground and accommodation effects to the user. A model of artificial agent is proposed. It leads the user in its information search by proposing to him examples, assistance and choices.

Abstract: Background: The growing number of resources to be indexed in the catalogue of online health resources in French (CISMeF) calls for curating strategies involving automatic indexing tools while maintaining the catalogue's high indexing quality standards. Objective: To develop a simple automatic tool that retrieves MeSH descriptors from documents titles. Methods: In parallel to research on advanced indexing methods, a bag-of-words tool was developed for timely inclusion in CISMeF's maintenance system. An evaluation was carried out on a corpus of 99 documents. The indexing sets retrieved by the automatic tool were compared to manual indexing based on the title and on the full text of resources. Results: 58% of the major main headings were retrieved by the bag-of-words algorithm and the precision on main heading retrieval was 69%. Conclusion: Bag-of-words indexing has effectively been used on selected resources to be included in CISMeF since August 2006. Meanwhile, on going work aims at improving the current version of the tool.

Abstract: The number of articles in the MEDLINE database is expected to increase tremendously in the coming years. To ensure that all these documents are indexed with continuing high quality, it is necessary to develop tools and methods that help the indexers in their daily task. We present three methods addressing a novel aspect of automatic indexing of the biomedical literature, namely producing MeSH main heading/subheading pair recommendations. The methods, (dictionary-based, post- processing rules and Natural Language Processing rules) are described and evaluated on a genetics-related corpus. The best overall performance is obtained for the subheading genetics (70% precision and 17% recall with post-processing rules, 48% precision and 37% recall with the dictionary-based method). Future work will address extending this work to all MeSH subheadings and a more thorough study of method combination.

Abstract: The catalog of online medical resources in French (CISMeF) is a quality controlled health gateway selecting and describing major institutional medical resources in French. In order to update the catalog in a timely fashion, research efforts have addressed the development of automatic tools to process resources selected for inclusion in the catalogue. The result of the automatic processing, namely a description of resources in the form of MeSH descriptors, may be reviewed by CISMeF indexers before inclusion in the catalogue. After a brief introduction to CISMeF and the task of MeSH indexing, we review the reasons that led to chose NooJ as a text analysis tool and describe how it was integrated in a MeSH indexing system (MAIF). On-going work focuses on further development of medical text analysis material (NooJ dictionary and transducers) for MeSH indexing, to be eventually extended to multi-terminological indexing and Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) analysis. NOOJ applications for other terminology such as ICD-10, SNOMED international, CCAM (French equivalent of US CPT) and TUV (French terminology for therapeutical and clinical notions for the use of drugs) will therefore be studied.

Abstract: The present work aims at refining and expanding user?s queries thanks to association rules. We adapted the A-Close algorithm to a medical corpus indexed by MeSH descriptors. The originality of our approach lies in the use of the association rules in the information retrieval process and the exploitation of the structure of the domain knowledge to evaluate the association rules. The results show the usefulness of this query expansion approach. Based on observations, new knowledge is modelled as expert rules.

Abstract: Introduction: Physicians are expected to prescribe according to current scientific data and evidence-based medicine, as embodied by official treatment guidelines. In order to apply these, physicians should be aware of ways to access them, and smoothly integrate their content into their daily practice. Our objectives were to provide validated summaries of treatment guidelines, to facilitate access to original documents, and to keep physicians informed on updates and related news. Methods: For one hundred most frequently encountered diseases, expert writers (GPs and specialists) were chosen to produce a summary of current validated treatment guidelines. The outline and content of these summaries were harmonized in order to increase user-friendliness. Tree-shaped decision algorithms constitute the core of each summary. They are completed with disease and diagnosis information, specific clinical situations, patient information as well as drug and non drug treatment information (all available medicinal products are listed). Whenever possible, these summaries are weighed with grades of recommendation corresponding to scientific levels of evidence, as defined by the HAS (high autority of health). Results: The therapeutic guidelines database is available through: - a website which proposes therapeutic guidelines summaries and related information regarding diseases most frequently encountered by GPs. A search engine has been integrated, which allows physicians to locate French and international treatment guidelines. This engine transforms queries expressed in usual French medical terms into MeSH (medical subjects headings) - compatible queries in order to search French and international databases efficaciously. We created a watch team to update the database and inform physicians about the latest available guidelines as well as other recent guidelinerelated news. - a pocket book with one hundred treatment strategies based on guideline summaries. Conclusion: The therapeutic guidelines database is the first one for Frenchspeaking healthcare professionals. It allows access to validated therapeutic guidelines (summaries, full-text guidelines, as well as related news). The next step is to measure the effects of this new tool on GPs daily practice.

Abstract: When searching the medical literature, health professionals and lay people strongly prefer to use their native language. Therefore, Medical Subject Headings (MeSH(R)) translations would be helpful to those who are not fluent in English to access scientific papers indexed in the MEDLINE(R) bibliographic database. Furthermore, medical terminologies such as MeSH are challenging in any language. Therefore, a French MeSH Browser was developed.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Categorization is designed to enhance resource description by organizing content description so as to enable the reader to grasp quickly and easily what are the main topics discussed in it. The objective of this work is to propose a categorization algorithm to classify a set of scientific articles indexed with the MeSH thesaurus, and in particular those of the MEDLINE bibliographic database. In a large bibliographic database such as MEDLINE, finding materials of particular interest to a specialty group, or relevant to a particular audience, can be difficult. The categorization refines the retrieval of indexed material. In the CISMeF terminology, metaterms can be considered as super-concepts. They were primarily conceived to improve recall in the CISMeF quality-controlled health gateway. METHODS: The MEDLINE categorization algorithm (MCA) is based on semantic links existing between MeSH terms and metaterms on the one hand and between MeSH subheadings and metaterms on the other hand. These links are used to automatically infer a list of metaterms from any MeSH term/subheading indexing. Medical librarians manually select the semantic links. RESULTS: The MEDLINE categorization algorithm lists the medical specialties relevant to a MEDLINE file by decreasing order of their importance. The MEDLINE categorization algorithm is available on a Web site. It can run on any MEDLINE file in a batch mode. As an example, the top 3 medical specialties for the set of 60 articles published in BioMed Central Medical Informatics & Decision Making, which are currently indexed in MEDLINE are: information science, organization and administration and medical informatics. CONCLUSION: We have presented a MEDLINE categorization algorithm in order to classify the medical specialties addressed in any MEDLINE file in the form of a ranked list of relevant specialties. The categorization method introduced in this paper is based on the manual indexing of resources with MeSH (terms/subheadings) pairs by NLM indexers. This algorithm may be used as a new bibliometric tool.

Abstract: The profusion of online resources calls for tools and methods to help Internet users find precisely what they are looking for. Quality controlled gateway CISMeF provides such services for health resources. However, the human cost of maintaining and updating the catalogue are increasingly high. This paper presents the automatic indexing system currently developed in the CISMeF team to be used as such for preliminary indexing, or after human reviewing for the final indexing. The system architecture, using the INTEX platform for MeSH term extraction is detailed. The results of a first evaluation tend to indicate that the automatic indexing strategy is relevant, as it achieves a precision comparable to that of other existing operational systems. Moreover, the system presented in this paper retrieves keyword/qualifier pairs as opposed to single terms, therefore providing a significantly more precise indexing. Further development and tests will be carried out in order to improve the coverage of the dictionaries, and validate the efficiency of the system in the indexers' everyday work.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The paper (1) introduces health sciences librarians to the main concepts and principles of the Semantic Web (SW) and (2) briefly reviews a number of projects on the handling of biomedical information that uses SW technology. METHODOLOGY: The paper is structured into two main parts. "Semantic Web Technology" provides a high-level description, with examples, of the main standards and concepts: extensible markup language (XML), Resource Description Framework (RDF), RDF Schema (RDFS), ontologies, and their utility in information retrieval, concluding with mention of more advanced SW languages and their characteristics. "Semantic Web Applications and Research Projects in the Biomedical Field" is a brief review of the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS), Generalised Architecture for Languages, Encyclopedias and Nomenclatures in Medicine (GALEN), HealthCyberMap, LinkBase, and the thesaurus of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The paper also mentions other benefits and by-products of the SW, citing projects related to them. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: Some of the problems facing the SW vision are presented, especially the ways in which the librarians' expertise in organizing knowledge and in structuring information may contribute to SW projects.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The Script Concordance test (SC) test is an assessment tool that measures the capacity to solve ill-defined problems, that is, reasoning in a context of uncertainty. This study assesses the feasibility, reliability and validity of the SC test made available on the Web to French urologists. METHODS: A 97 items SC test was developed based on major educational objectives of French urology training programmes. A secure Web site was created with two sequential modules: a) The first one for the reference panel to elaborate the scoring system; b) The second for candidates with different levels of experience in urology: Board certified urologists, chief-residents, residents, medical students. All participants were recruited on a voluntary basis. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics of the participants' scores and factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) to study differences between groups' means. Reliability was evaluated with Cronbach's alpha coefficient. RESULTS: The on line SC test has been operational since June 2004. Twenty-six faculty members constituted the reference panel. During the following 10 months, 207 participants took the test online (124 urologists, 29 chief-residents, 38 residents, 16 students). No technical problem was encountered. Forty-five percent of the participants completed the test partially only. Differences between the means scores for the 4 groups were statistically significant (P = 0.0123). The Bonferroni post-hoc correction indicated that significant differences were present between students and chief-residents, between students and urologists. There were no differences between chief-residents and urologists. Reliability coefficient was 0.734 for the total group of participants. CONCLUSION: Feasibility of Web-based SC test was proved successful by the large number of participants who participated in a few months. This Web site has permitted to quickly confirm reliability of the SC test and develop strategy to improve construct validity of the test when applied in the field of urology. Nevertheless, optimisation of the SC test content, with a smaller number of items will be necessary. Virtual medical education initiative such as this SC test delivered on the Internet warrants consideration in the current context of national pre-residency certification examination in France.

Abstract: Access to accurate and quality-controlled health information on the Internet for medical students is not an easy task. CISMeF is the search tool of a MeSH-indexed directory of medical Internet resources in French. Since 2004, a new French Pre-Residency Examination (PRE) is compulsory for all medical students in the 6th year of the curriculum. The goal of this study is to evaluate CISMeF as a tool to provide teaching resources available on the Internet covering PRE material. The CISMeF terminology and the PRE CISMeF module are described. To assess the CISMeF performance in covering PRE program, its precision (number of relevant resources/number of overall resources extracted by CISMeF) and coverage (number of PRE questions covered by at least one resource in the CISMeF gateway) were computed. The CISMeF module for the new French Pre-Residency Examination is efficient as it already covers 95.7% of the program with a precision of 82.2 Our data demonstrates that CISMeF is acceptable to guide students' learning and should be a useful teaching resource for the preparation of the French Pre-Residency Examination.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: to improve the indexing of French-language health web sites by emphasizing the major terms that best describe them. MATERIAL AND METHODS: this study exploits both UMLS knowledge sources and results of previous research. It proposes a method for ranking MeSH terms taken from each record in order of relevance. The method is tested on a corpus of records taken from the French-language health gateway CISMeF. RESULTS: the results of the experiment are compared to those of a preliminary study performed on a corpus taken from MEDLINE. DISCUSSION: the ultimate objective of this work is to interface the developed tools with an automated MeSH term extractor in order to propose an automated indexing engine for French-language health web sites.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: This paper explores alternative approaches for the evaluation of an automatic indexing tool for MEDLINE, complementing the traditional precision and recall method. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The performance of MTI, the Medical Text Indexer used at NLM to produce MeSH recommendations for biomedical journal articles is evaluated on a random set of MEDLINE citations. The evaluation examines semantic similarity at the term level (indexing terms). In addition, the documents retrieved by queries resulting from MTI index terms for a given document are compared to the PubMed related citations for this document. RESULTS: Semantic similarity scores between sets of index terms are higher than the corresponding Dice similarity scores. Overall, 75% of the original documents and 58% of the top ten related citations are retrieved by queries based on the automatic indexing. CONCLUSIONS: The alternative measures studied in this paper confirm previous findings and may be used to select particular documents from the test set for a more thorough analysis.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: This paper presents a method of cross-language information retrieval aiming to make medical information available to patients in French and English, regardless of the query language they wish to use. METHODS: We describe the two MeSH-related terminologies used in this work. We show that the French patient synonyms included in CISMeF can be automatically mapped to the English consumer-oriented health topics used in MEDLINEplus, via the MeSH thesaurus. The links between French and English patient terms thus inferred can subsequently be exploited to automatically translate patient queries. RESULTS: 129 MEDLINEplus topics have been mapped to 142 CISMeF patient synonyms. Contextual links for cross-language retrieval have been added to the patient dedicated French information Gateway CISMeF. Conclusion: we have presented an efficient method for cross-lingual patient information retrieval in French and English, which may also be applied to other language pairs, subject to the availability of patient terminologies and of the MeSH thesaurus in these languages.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: In order to measure the medical activity in hospitals, physicians are required to code manually information concerning a patient's stay using ICD-10. This requires trained staff and a lot of time. We propose to help speed up and facilitate the tedious task of coding patient information. METHODS: we show two methods. First, we propose an automated ICD-10-based coding help system using an automated MeSH-based indexing system and a mapping between MeSH and ICD-10 extracted from the UMLS metathesaurus. Secondly, we propose the use of drug prescriptions to complete the previous coding with the use of a mapping between a given prescription drug and the relevant ICD-10 codes (in compliance with the drug approval). RESULTS: the results of a preliminary experiment indicate that the precision of the indexing system is 40% and the recall is 30% when we compare to an economic rules-based coding and to a descriptive coding. Discussion: moreover, we show that the use of prescription coding is relevant as the recall reaches 68% when the Vidal tool is used. CONCLUSION: Then, it is very interesting to complete the coding obtained automatically by the indexing/mapping system by the coding obtained from the prescriptions.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The amount of health data accessible on the Web is increasing and Internet has become a major source of health information. Many tools and search engines are available but medical information retrieval remains difficult for both the health professional and the patients. OBJECTIVE: In this paper we describe heuristics that aim at matching as much as possible queries with the content of the documents in the context of the CISMeF catalogue (Catalogue and Index of Health Resources in French) and its Doc'CISMeF search tool. The queries are represented by terms and the content of the documents is indexed by a terminology based on the MeSH thesaurus. RESULTS: Several operations are performed to match the terms of the terminology: natural language processing techniques on multi-words queries, phonemisation, spelling correction, plain text search with adjacency etc.. Each one is tested to evaluate its contribution in matching the terminology and the indexed documents. CONCLUSION: The implemented heuristics contribute significantly with good results in maximising as much as possible the recall of the Doc'CISMeF search tool.

Abstract: PURPOSE: The objective of this work was to assess problem-based learning (PBL) as a method for teaching information and communication technology in medical informatics (MI) courses. A study was conducted in the Schools of Medicine of Rennes and Rouen (France) with third-year medical students. METHODS: The "PBL-in-MI" sessions included a first tutorial group meeting, then personal work, followed by a second tutorial group meeting. A problem that simulated practice and was focused on information technology was discussed. In Rouen, the students were familiar with PBL, and they enrolled on a voluntary basis, while in Rennes, the students were first-ever participants in PBL courses, and the program was mandatory. One hundred and seventy-seven students participated in the PBL-in-MI sessions and were given a questionnaire in order to evaluate qualitatively the sessions. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The response rate was 92.1 The overall opinion of the students was good. 69.8% responded positively to the program. In Rouen, where the students participated in PBL-in-MI sessions on a voluntary basis, the students were significantly more enthusiastic about PBL-in-MI. Moreover, attitudes and opinions of students are plausibly related to differences in previous PBL skills. The fact that the naïve group had two tutors, one trained and one naïve as the students, has been investigated. Teacher naivety was an explanatory factor for the differences between Rennes and Rouen.

Abstract: Images play an important role in medical diagnostics and treatment planning. Whereas medical text retrieval, analysis, and reuse have been practiced for many years, much less is known on the storage and reuse of images in a context other than a single patient, although several medical teaching files with images exist. The aim of automatic image indexing/retrieval is to provide efficient and fast access to image collections to reuse stored information. When indexing medical images, the automatic categorization provides the means of extracting otherwise unavailable information about the images. Image categorization is usually applied in a context where a large number of images needs to be treated automatically and where no or only little text is available. This study will focus on a database extracted from online resources of the CISMeF health-catalogue. The aim is to assess the performance of two medical image categorization architectures in a complex environment (10322 images, 33 classes, multiple modalities, anatomical regions, and view-angles). The image database was extracted and annotated in collaboration with an experienced radiologist. The two compared systems have very different architectures. MedIC is an architecture based on machine learning applied to several sets of image texture and grey-level statistics. It achieves a maximum accuracy of 97.24% on 32 classes (representing different modalities, anatomical regions and view angles) and 98.47% on 6 classes (representing only the medical modality), when using an SVM classifier. MedGIFT on the other hand is a visual retrieval system where the visually most similar images are used to classify new images, currently without any learning strategy. This approach reaches an accuracy of 95.25% for the 32 classes and 97.15% for detecting the modality. By including a proper learning strategy these results can be expected to increase. The results show that image categorization has reached an accuracy that can be regarded as sufficient for many automatic image categorization tasks to get information on poorly annotated image collections.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The script concordance (SC) test is an assessment tool that measures capacity to solve ill-defined problems, that is, reasoning in context of uncertainty. This tool has been used up to now mainly in medicine. The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of the test delivered on the Web to French urologists. METHODS: The principle of SC test construction and the development of the Web site are described. A secure Web site was created with two sequential modules: (a) The first one for the reference panel (n = 26) with two sub-tasks: to validate the content of the test and to elaborate the scoring system; (b) The second for candidates with different levels of experience in Urology: Board certified urologists, residents, medical students (5 or 6th year). Minimum expected number of participants is 150 for urologists, 100 for residents and 50 for medical students. Each candidate is provided with an individual access code to this Web site. He/she may complete the Script Concordance test several times during his/her curriculum. RESULTS: The Web site has been operational since April 2004. The reference panel validated the test in June of the same year during the annual seminar of the French Society of Urology. The Web site is available for the candidates since September 2004. In six months, 80% of the target figure for the urologists, 68% of the target figure for the residents and 20% of the target figure for the student passed the test online. During these six months, no technical problem was encountered. CONCLUSION: The feasibility of the web-based SC test is successful as two-thirds of the expected number of participants was included within six months. Psychometric properties (validity, reliability) of the test will be evaluated on a large scale (N = 300). If positive, educational impact of this assessment tool will be useful to help urologists during their curriculum for the acquisition of clinical reasoning skills, which is crucial for professional competence.

Abstract: Internet as source of information is increasing in preeminence in numerous fields, including health. We describe in this paper the CISMeF project (acronym of Catalogue and Index of French-speaking Medical Sites) which has been designed to help the health information consumers and health professionals to find what they are looking for among the numerous health documents available online. The catalogue is founded on two standards: a set of metadata and a terminology based on the MeSH thesaurus which has the same structure and use as an ontology of the medical domain. The structure of the catalogue allows us to place the project at an overlap between the present Web, which is informal, and the forthcoming Semantic Web. Many features of information retrieval and navigation through the catalogue were developed. These features take into account the kind of the end-user (health professional, medical student, patient). The CISMeF-patients catalogue is a sub-catalogue of CISMeF and is dedicated to the patients and the general public. It shares the same model as CISMeF whereas MEDLINE and MedlinePlus do not. We also propose to couple two approaches (morphological processing and data mining) to help the users by correcting and refining their queries.

Abstract: Medical Informatics has a constant need for basic medical language processing tasks, e.g. for coding into controlled vocabularies, free text indexing and information retrieval. Most of these tasks involve term matching and rely on lexical resources: lists of words with attached information, including inflected forms and derived words, etc. Such resources are publicly available for the English language with the UMLS Specialist Lexicon, but not in other languages. For the French language, several teams have worked on the subject and built local lexical resources. The goal of the present work is to pool and unify these resources and to add extensively to them by exploiting medical terminologies and corpora, resulting in a unified medical lexicon for French (UMLF). This paper exposes the issues raised by such an objective, describes the methods on which the project relies and illustrates them with experimental results.

Abstract: Objective :Performing a usability study on two handheld computers (personal digital assistant and tablet PC), as tools for retrieving drug information.Materials and methods: A randomised crossover study was performed: 34 students in pharmacy and medicine used the two handheld tools in a randomised order, to answer a questionnaire containing 12 questions covering all the aspects of a drug database and a qualitative analysis on six different items to measure access to drug information. The availability of the drug information database Vidal on PDA and on tablet PC implied our choice of the database. Three main criteria for evaluation were chosen: success rates, time-on-task, and number of clicks.Results: There were no significant differences between the two groups neither on age, sex, medical discipline, study years nor previous computer practice. The success rate is significantly higher with the PDA for only one question. The PDA is significantly faster than the tablet PC on 7 of the 12 questions and generates fewer clicks for 3 questions. Compared to the tablet PC, it appears that the PDA is better in terms of clearness, navigability and usefulness for professional practice and it is the only tool which is significantly preferred to all other supports.Conclusion: In this study with students, the PDA is significantly more effective quantitatively and qualitatively than the tablet PC to retrieve drug information.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: This paper presents the evaluation of two MeSH indexing systems for French and English on a parallel corpus. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We describe two automatic MeSH in-dexing systems - MTI for English, and MAIF for French. The French version of the evaluation resources has been manually indexed with MeSH keyword/qualifier pairs. This professional indexing is used as our gold standard in the evaluation of both systems on keyword retrieval. RESULTS: The English system (MTI) obtains significantly better precision and recall (78% precision and 21% recall at rank 1, vs. 37 precision and 6% recall for MAIF ). Moreover, the performance of both systems can be optimised by the break-age function used by the French system (MAIF), which selects an adaptive number of descriptors for each resource indexed. CONCLUSION: MTI achieves better performance. However, both systems have features that can benefit each other.

Abstract: The "Université Médicale Virtuelle Francophone" (UMVF) is a federation of French medical schools. Its main goal is to share the production and use of pedagogic medical resources generated by academic medical teachers. We developed an Open-Source application based upon a workflow system which provides an improved publication process for the UMVF. For teachers, the tool permits easy and efficient upload of new educational resources. For web masters it provides a mechanism to easily locate and validate the resources. For both the teachers and the web masters, the utility provides the control and communication functions that define a workflow system.For all users, students in particular, the application improves the value of the UMVF repository by providing an easy way to find a detailed description of a resource and to check any resource from the UMVF to ascertain its quality and integrity, even if the resource is an old deprecated version. The server tier of the application is used to implement the main workflow functionalities and is deployed on certified UMVF servers using the PHP language, an LDAP directory and an SQL database. The client tier of the application provides both the workflow and the search and check functionalities and is implemented using a Java applet through a W3C compliant web browser. A unique signature for each resource, was needed to provide security functionality and is implemented using the MD5 Digest algorithm. The testing performed by Rennes and Lille verified the functionality and conformity with our specifications.

Abstract: Our work is concerned with the automatic indexing of medical images for image retrieval purposes inside a large on-line health-catalogue. We present, in this paper, a rule-based medical-image modality categorization approach. The modality information is important for the indexing of medical images present in on-line health documents (thus, mainly in JPEG format). In fact, contrary to the case of the DICOM images, extensively used in PACS systems, JPEG images have any attached metadata (like those present in DICOM headers). Our system is based on the automatic interpretation of textual annotations, once they are extracted from the medical image by image processing and optical character recognition techniques. The system performances were tested on a medical image database, containing six medical modalities: angiography, ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, standard radiography, computer tomography, and scintigraphy. The extraction of this database from a live health environment ensures the diversity of content from the modality, anatomical region and pathological point of view. In order to determinate the medical image modality, the textual annotations have been interpreted using a set of 96 production rules defined by our expert radiologist. The high precision rate of our categorization system (~90%), proves that textual annotations present in medical images are very reliable indicators of the medical modality. Further work will concern the fusion of our rule-based system with an already implemented visual-content based system, for a robust image modality categorization.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: It is an absolute necessity to continually assess the quality of health information on the Internet. Quality-controlled subject gateways are Internet services which apply a selected set of targeted measures to support systematic resource discovery. METHODS: The CISMeF health gateway became a contributor to the MedCIRCLE project to evaluate 270 health information providers. The transparency heritage consists of using the evaluation performed on providers that are referenced in the CISMeF catalogue for evaluating the documents they publish, thus passing on the transparency label from the publishers to their documents. RESULTS: Each site rated in CISMeF has a record in the CISMeF database that generates an RDF into HTML file. The search tool Doc'CISMeF displays information originating from every publisher evaluated with a specific MedCIRCLE button, which is linked to the MedCIRCLE central repository. Starting with 270 websites, this trust heritage has led to 6,480 evaluated resources in CISMeF (49.8% of the 13,012 resources included in CISMeF). CONCLUSION: With the MedCIRCLE project and transparency heritage, CISMeF became an explicit third party.

Abstract: The amount of health information available on the Internet is considerable. In this context, several health gateways have been developed. Among them, CISMeF (Catalogue and Index of Health Resources in French) was designed to catalogue and index health resources in French. The goal of this article is to describe the various enhancements to the MeSH thesaurus developed by the CISMeF team to adapt this terminology to the broader field of health Internet resources instead of scientific articles for the medline bibliographic database. CISMeF uses two standard tools for organizing information: the MeSH thesaurus and several metadata element sets, in particular the Dublin Core metadata format. The heterogeneity of Internet health resources led the CISMeF team to enhance the MeSH thesaurus with the introduction of two new concepts, respectively, resource types and metaterms. CISMeF resource types are a generalization of the publication types of medline. A resource type describes the nature of the resource and MeSH keyword/qualifier pairs describe the subject of the resource. A metaterm is generally a medical specialty or a biological science, which has semantic links with one or more MeSH keywords, qualifiers and resource types. The CISMeF terminology is exploited for several tasks: resource indexing performed manually, resource categorization performed automatically, visualization and navigation through the concept hierarchies and information retrieval using the Doc'CISMeF search engine. The CISMeF health gateway uses several MeSH thesaurus enhancements to optimize information retrieval, hierarchy navigation and automatic indexing.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: CISMeF is a Quality Controlled Health Gateway using a terminology based on the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) thesaurus that displays medical specialties (metaterms) and the relationships existing between them and MeSH terms. Objective: The need to classify the resources within the catalogue has led us to combine this type of semantic information with domain expert knowledge for health resources categorization purposes. Material and METHODS: A two-step categorization process consisting of mapping resource keywords to CISMeF metaterms and ranking metaterms by decreasing coverage in the resource has been developed. We evaluate this algorithm on a random set of 123 resources extracted from the CISMeF catalogue. Our gold standard for this evaluation is the manual classification provided by a domain expert, viz. a librarian of the team. RESULTS: The CISMeF algorithm shows 81% precision and 93% recall, and 62% of the resources were assigned a "fully relevant" or "fairly relevant" categorization according to strict standards. DISCUSSION: A thorough analysis of the results has enabled us to find gaps in the knowledge modeling of the CISMeF terminology. The necessary adjustments having been made, the algorithm is currently used in CISMeF for resource categorization.

Abstract: Information retrieval remains problematic in spite of the numerous existing search engines. It is the same problem for health information retrieval. We propose in this paper to combine three knowledge-based methods to enhance information retrieval using query expansion in the context of the CISMeF project (Catalogue and Index of French-speaking Medical Sites) in which the resources are indexed according to a structured terminology of the medical domain and a set of metadata. The first method consists of building and using morphological knowledge of the terms. The second method consists of extracting association rules between terms by applying a data mining technique over the indexed resources. The last method consists of formalizing the terminology using the OWL-DL language to benefit from its powerful reasoning mechanisms. We describe how these methods could be used conjointly in the KnowQuE prototype (Knowledge-based Query Expansion) and we give some preliminary results.

Abstract: Summary: Objective: Measuring the impact of training on student-users of CISMeF (Catalog and Index of Health Resources on the Internet) quality-controlled health gateway.
Design: Prospective group-randomised technological trial Participants: Fifty-six third-year medical students of the Rouen Medical School, France on a voluntary basis. One group with training (28); one group untrained (28). Participants were directed to use the CISMeF health information portal (URL: www.chu-rouen.fr or www.cismef.org) to find one teaching document dealing with each of the following objectives: semiology of asthma, main germs of infectious endocarditis, risk factors of colon cancer, and aetiology of hematuria Main outcome measures: Success or failure to find a teaching document in a maximum of 10 minutes, time spent and number of clicks to find it.
Results: One-hour training session significantly improved the students? ability to search and access teaching resources: 64% of the students (18 out of 28) found a valid teaching resource for each teaching objective in the untrained group vs. 96% (27 out of 28) in the trained group (p=0.005, Fisher?s exact test).
Conclusion: Health information portals may increase access to quality-controlled teaching documents.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: An assessment of the quality of health information on the Internet is an absolute necessity. In this study 'sensitive' information was defined as information found in documents published on the Internet, which could be used in a medical decision. For sensitive information, the main criterion chosen for the quality of the information was an indication of the level of evidence. A survey was conducted using the CISMeF health catalogue to assess how often a score of the level of evidence is mentioned in the information accessible on the Internet in French-language health resources. METHODS: Since 1999, members of the CISMeF team have systematically been searching for all documents containing 'sensitive' information and verifying whether the level of evidence was explicitly indicated as a score at least once in the document. RESULTS: As of June 2001, 10,190 resources were included in CISMeF; including 2964 textual 'sensitive' resources (29.1. Out of all these resources, only 4.7% (95% confidence interval: 4.0 - 5.5 indicated the level of evidence. A statistically significant difference in the prevalence of indicating the level of evidence according to resource types (e.g., 18.1% for guidelines compared to 0.0% for teaching material), year of publication (almost three times greater in 1997-2001 compared with 1990-1996) and publishers was observed. CONCLUSION: As the number of people accessing the growing amount of information on the Internet is increasing daily, publishers have an ethical obligation to inform their readers about the validity of 'sensitive' information their sites contain. However, the vast majority of the French language Internet resources that were surveyed do not mention a score of the level of evidence for their sensitive information.

Abstract: Les technologies de l'information et de la communication prennent une place de plus en plus importante dans les Facultés de médecine. Il peut s'agir de l'utilisation de polycopiés sur le WEB au lieu des polycopiésclassiques, de l'offre de ressources utilisant le multimédia et l'interactivité, ou encore de l'apprentissage de la pratique médicale à l'aide de patients virtuels. Le projet d'Université médicale virtuelle francophone mis en place en 1999 sera développé dans l'article. Parmi les avantages attendus de ces techniques on peut évoquer l'autonomie d'apprentissage des étudiants, et leur envie de continuer à se former.

Abstract: Le nombre de ressources disponibles sur l?internet concernant l?enseignement de la médecine est en croissance permanente. Il devient de plus en plus difficile, pour l?étudiant comme pour l?enseignant, de repérer des documents de qualité et répondant à une question précise. CISMeF et son outil de recherche associé Doc?CISMeF, permettent de répondre à cette attente. Ils sont fondés sur un modèle d?information qui intègre les mots-clés et les qualificatifs du thesaurus MeSH et y adjoint deux concepts supplémentaires avec les métatermes et les types de ressources. La réalisation du catalogue s?appuie sur une sélection rigoureuse des ressources notamment au regard de critères de qualité stricts (grille de critères du NetScoring et langage de métadonnées HIDDEL). Plusieurs modes de recherche sont proposés. La recherche « avancée » permet des requêtes élaborées, pouvant combiner plusieurs champs grâce aux opérateurs booléens ET, OU, SAUF. Doc?CISMeF a été choisi pour être un des outils de recherche de l?Université Médicale Virtuelle Francophone (UMVF).

Abstract: A considerable number of robust vocabularies and thesauri have been developed for the healthcare and biomedical domain. No single vocabulary, however; provides complete coverage of the information needs from a public health perspective. The results of an investigation of vocabulary sources for the development of a comprehensive controlled vocabulary for the public health domain at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is presented.

Abstract: This study examines an enabling condition for natural languages access to medical knowledge resources (Medline, CISMeF) indexed with controlled vocabularies (e.g., the MeSH): is the vocabulary of user queries comparable with that of the index terms? The two vocabularies were compared in their original form, then under incrementally normalized forms, using character-based normalizations then linguistic normalizations. Only 16.7% of the user vocabulary, in its original form, is in the MeSH. Progressive normalizations increase this proportion to 65.5 Besides, if the frequencies of occurrence of words are taken into account, 89.3% of user word occurrences can be matched to MeSH words. This shows the interest of taking into account further matching methods between queries and index terms than those presented here.

Abstract: This paper deals with the problem of information retrieval on the Web and present the CISMeF project (acronym of Catalogue and Index of French-speaking Medical Sites). Information retrieval in the CISMeF catalogue is done with a terminology that is similar to ontology of medical domain and a set of metadata. This allows us to place the project at an overlap between the present Web, which is informal, and the forthcoming Semantic Web. We also describe an ongoing work, which consists of applying thr ee knowledge-based methods in order to enhance information retrieval.

Abstract: We describe MedCIRCLE, an EU-funded semantic web project to implement the first steps towards a global, collaborative rating and guidance system for health information proposed in the MedCERTAIN project. In MedCIRCLE, three European gateway sites for consumer health information will implement the metadata vocabulary HIDDEL (Health Information Disclosure, Description and Evaluation Language). HIDDEL allows portals and gateways to make the results of their evaluations accessible as XML/RDF. The three participating national portals are: AQUMED (Agency for Quality in Medicine) patienten-information, de, COMB (Official Medical College of Barcelona) and CISMeF, a quality-controlled health gateway developed at Rouen University Hospital. Other health subject gateways, accreditation, or rating services are invited to join the collaboration simply by implementing HIDDEL on their gateways. Widespread implementation HIDDEL will allow intelligent agents or client-side software to harvest statements and opinions about the trustworthiness of other websites, assisting users in selecting trustworthy websites. The MedCIRCLE project builds on, expands and continues work on rating health information on the Internet piloted within the MedCERTAIN project. While MedCERTAIN provided the core technologies and software for rating and "trustmarking" health information, MedCIRCLE is built around these technologies and involves a wider medical community to assess health information, demonstrating the power of collaborative and interoperable evaluations in a semantic web environment. MedCIRCLE is a project with the overall objective to develop and promote technologies able to guide consumers to trustworthy health information on the Internet, to establish a global web of trust for networked health information, and to empower consumers to positively select high quality health information on the web. Other aims include refinement and expansion of HIDDEL, to become a standard vocabulary and interchange format for self- and third-party ratings of health information.

Abstract: This paper is positioned within the development of an automated indexing system for the CISMeF quality controlled health gateway. For disambiguation purposes, we wish to perform text categorization prior to indexing. Hence, a global approach contrasting with the classical analytical methods based on the analysis of keyword counts extracted from the text is necessary. The use of statistical compression models enables us to proceed avoiding keyword extraction at this stage. Preliminary results show that althought this method is not as precise as others in terms of resource categorization, it can significantly benefit indexing.

Abstract: The amount of health data accessible on the Web is increasing and Internet has become a major source of health information. Many tools and search engines are available but medical information retrieval remains difficult for both the health professional and the patients. In this paper we describe CISMeF-patients. It is a sub-part of CISMeF, a structured quality-controlled subject gateway. CISMeF-patients has been designed for the patients, their families and the general public who are often unfamiliar with the medical domain and the medical vocabulary. The resources included in CISMeF-patients are described using the Dublin Core metadata format. To index them, CISMeF-patients and CISMeF share the same terminology, which 'encapsulates' the MeSH thesaurus with a layer of synonyms. Unlike Medline-plus and Medline, sharing the same terminology allows to a CISMeF-patients end-user the possibility to extend his query to the CISMeF catalogue (e.g. for searching teaching resources or clinical guidelines).

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Quality-controlled subject gateways are Internet services which apply a selected set of targeted measures to support systematic resource discovery. Considerable manual effort is used to process a selection of resources which meet quality criteria and to display a extensive description and indexing of these resources with standards-based metadata. OBJECTIVE: Several metadata element sets are proposed to describe, index and quality health resources to be included in a French quality-controlled health gateway called CISMeF. The main objectives were to enhance Internet health document retrieval and navigation, and to allow interoperability with other Internet services. RESULTS: The Dublin Core metadata element set is used to describe and index all Internet health resources included in CISMeF. For teaching resources, some elements from IEEE1484 Learning Object Metadata are also used. For evidenced-base medicine resources, specific metadata are employed which assess the health content quality. The HIDDEL metadata set is used to enhance transparency, trust and quality of health information on the Internet. CONCLUSION: Comprehensive metadata element sets can be extremely useful to describe, index and assess health resources on the Internet in a quality-controlled subject gateway. Machine-readable metadata creates an Semantic Web which is more efficient for end-users as compared to the current Web.

Abstract: Lexical resources for medical language, such as lists of words with inflectional and derivational information, are publicly available for the English lantuate with the UMLS Specialist Lexicon. The goal of the UMLF project is to pool and unify existing resources and to add extensively to them by exploiting medical terminologies and corpora, resulting in a Unified Medical Lexicon for French. We present here the current status of the project.

Abstract: Medical Informatics has a constant need for basic Medical Language Processing tasks, e.g., for coding into controlled vocabularies, free text indexing and information retrieval. Most of these tasks involve term matching and rely on lexical resources: lists of words with attached information, including inflected forms and derived words, etc. Such resources are publicly available for the English language with the UMLS Specialist Lexicon, but not in other languages. For the French language, several teams have worked on the subject and built local lexical resources. The goal of the present work is to pool and unify these resources and to add extensively to them by exploiting medical terminologies and corpora, resulting in a unified medical lexicon for French (UMLF). This paper exposes the issues raised by such an objective, describes the methods on which the project relies and illustrates them with experimental results.

Abstract: L?information accessible sur la Toile (ou Web) est disponible en quantité importante et elle ne cesse de croître. La recherche d?information demeure problématique malgré l?existence de nombreux moteurs de recherche et de sites catalogues en ligne. Le Web doit faire face aux problèmes d?exhaustivité et de précision en recherche d?information. Le projet CISMeF (Catalogue et Index de Sites Médicaux Francophones) a été développé afin de faciliter l?accès à l?information de santé disponible sur l?Internet. La problématique d?aujourd?hui se veut aussi être une recherche d?information intelligente dans l?infrastructure du Web Sémantique, une extension du web actuel qui permettrait de rendre interprétable le contenu des ressources par les hommes mais aussi par les machines, grâce à des ontologies et des méta-données. La recherche d?information dans CISMeF se fait à l?aide d?une terminologie semblable à une ontologie et un ensemble de méta-données qui nous permettent de placer le projet à cheval entre le Web actuel qui est informel, et le Web Sémantique de demain.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: We have developed a RESOURCE SERVER to collect and store various elements used by a professor during his lecture. METHODS: The server manages four types of objects: ELEMENTS, RESOURCES (set of elements referring to a given topic), INDEXES (to organize the resources for further search and use), and USERS (to identify providers, users, and access rights). If an ELEMENT s modified, the RESOURCE is automatically updated. RESULTS: An example (preparation of an anatomy lecture) explains how the RESOURCE SERVER works in three steps: organization of the training material, indexing, and retrieval. CONCLUSIONS: The RESOURCE SERVER will help instructors develop, update and share pedagogic resources for supporting their training courses, lessons and conferences. Moreover, these techniques, based on Internet technologies for easy handling of and access to these resources, allow local and distant access. Within the general framework of the French-speaking Virtual Medical University, the RESOURCE SERVER will represent an important link between data collection and its use in intelligent pedagogic training.

Abstract: We present here the usability assessment study of a medical web site dedicated to the Cataloguing and Indexing of French speaking Medical web Sites (http://www.cismef.org). We performed a usability inspection using heuristic evaluation and an empirical usability test using a portable lab. From these results, we draw up a set of recommendations for the re-engineering of the Human Computer Interface (HCI). We conclude on the necessity to integrate usability engineering early enough in the projects lifecycle.

Abstract: We present here the usability assessment study of a medical web site dedicated to the Cataloguing and Indexing of French speaking Medical web Sites (CISMeF). We performed a usability inspection using heuristic evaluation and an empirical usability test using a portable lab. The results of the heuristic evaluation show usability flaws along guidance, prompting and legibility ergonomic criteria. The usability test confirms this result and gives some more hints about the severity rating of the problems. From these results, we draw up a set of recommendations for the re-engineering of the Human Computer Interface (HCI). We conclude on the necessity to integrate usability engineering early enough in the projects lifecycle.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Constant assessment of the quality of health information on the Internet is an absolute necessity as peer review is often lacking in this media. OBJECTIVE: To develop a simple and easy French Code of Ethics, which will enable medical students to judge quality of health information in teaching material available on the Internet. DESIGN: Three medical informaticians selected ten criteria from previously established codes of ethics from Europe and the USA. This instrument was tested on a sample of 30 health Internet teaching resources. RESULTS: For the panel of experts, chance corrected inter-observer agreement (kappa) for quality rating ranged from k = -0.19 and k = 0.33, demonstrating poor agreement among the raters. CONCLUSION: If negative results of this preliminary study are confirmed by further research, this finding may detrimentally affect projects in Europe to accredit or certify Internet health resources.

Abstract: French pharmaceutical theses are rarely quoted. If the main obstacles originate from language or access barriers, proper indexation could also be blamed. Manually extracted key-words don't necessary come from a structured thesaurus. In the following work, this manual indexing method is compared to an automated one, "Nomindex", based on UMLS. The automated method is improved by the addition of a relevance scoring system. The first indexing step consists of downloading, adapting and indexing theses in electronic format. Results will then be analyzed and sorted by relevance, through the comparison of classic statistical indices (noise, silence and relevance). It was assumed that the manually obtained key-words were always relevant. The silence of manual indexing is nevertheless high: seven new key-words are proposed by Nomindex, which results are mixed (10% of silence, but 50% of noise). These results are promising on the first experiment on pharmaceutical document without lexicon improvement. The indexing, if it is currently insufficient for a real life use, could easily be improved by specific updates of the lexicon.

Abstract: Several methods are available to evaluate and compare medical journals. The most popular is the journal Impact Factor, derived from averaging counts of citations to articles. Ingwersen adapted this method to assess the attractiveness of Web sites, defining the external Web Impact Factor (WIF) to be the number of external pages containing a link to a given Web site. This paper applies the WIF to 43 medical informatics societies' Web sites using advanced search engine queries to obtain the necessary link counts. The WIF was compared to the number of publications available in the Medline bibliographic database in medical informatics in these 43 countries. Between these two metrics, the observed Pearson correlation was 0.952 (p < 0.01) and the Spearman rank correlation was 0.548 (p < 0.01) showing in both cases a positive and strong significant correlation. The WIF of medicalm informatics society's Web site is statistically related to national productivity and discrepancies can be used to indicate countries where there are either weak medical informatics associations, or ones that do not make optimal use of the Web.

Abstract: In cyberspace, the health webmaster could be regarded as a virtual editor-in-chief, in charge of content and design. In this circumstance, he/she must follow quality criteria when building any resource. At the Rouen University Hospital (RUH), we have chosen "Net Scoring" as an effective tool to aid the design of a quality Web site. "Net Scoring" contains a list of 49 criteria which fall into eight categories: credibility, content, links, design, interactivity, quantitative aspects, ethics, and accessibility. The webmaster is the key element of the editorial board process. He/she must regularly monitor the Web site in order to retrieve information about whether the site is used and by whom: the method most commonly used is log analysis. At the RUH, an average of 9,000 unique machines visit our Web site each working day. Webmaster is a new job opportunity in academic institutions, in particular for medical informaticians and medical librarians both whom are information science professionals.

Abstract: Manually indexed Internet health catalogs such as CliniWeb or CISMeF provide resources for retrieving high-quality health information. Users of these quality-controlled subject gateways are most often referred to them by general search engines such as Google, AltaVista, etc. This raises several questions, among which the following: what is the relative visibility of medical Internet catalogs through search engines? This study addresses this issue by measuring and comparing the visibility of six major, MeSH-indexed health catalogs through four different search engines (AltaVista, Google, Lycos, Northern Light) in two languages (English and French). Over half a million queries were sent to the search engines; for most of these search engines, according to our measures at the time the queries were sent, the most visible catalog for English MeSH terms was CliniWeb and the most visible one for French MeSH terms was CISMeF.

Abstract: Background: An assessment of the quality of health information on the Internet is an absolute necessity because peer review is often lacking in this media.
Objective: To develop a simple and easy French code of ethics, which will enable medical students to judge quality of health information in teaching material available on the Internet. Design: Three medical informaticians generated ten criteria from previous codes of ethics from Europe and the USA. This instrument was tested on a sample of 30 health Internet teaching resources. Results: Chance corrected inter-observer agreement (kappa) for the quality rating ranged from k=-0.19 to k=0.33 amongst the expert panel, showing poor agreement among the raters. Conclusion: If the negative results of this study are confirmed by further research, they will affect detrimentally projects in Europe to accredit or certify Internet health resources.

Abstract: The communication of electronic patient records through telecommunication networks to healthcare professionals between different hospitals and also between hospitals and family physicians is one of the main challenges for this decade. In the year 2000, this approach proved to be successful for communication between three hospitals in Rouen (France) when used for 966 electronic patient records which contained, on average, 23 reports in psychiatry, 48 in gastroenterology, and 83 in pneumology. We used a three layer architecture, and security and confidentiality obligations were fulfilled. This first experience will be extended to communication between hospitals and family physicians in the second semester of 2001. A national health patient identification would facilitate and accelerate the communication of electronic patient records in France.

Abstract: In the year 2001, the Internet has become a major source of health information for the health professional and the Netizen. The objective of Doc' CISMeF (D'C) was to create a powerful generic search tool based on a structured information model which 'encapsulates' the MeSH thesaurus to index and retrieve quality health resources on the Internet. To index resources, D'C uses four sections in its information model: 'meta-term', keyword, subheading, and resource type. Two search options are available: simple and advanced. The simple search requires the end-user to input a single term or expression. If this term belongs to the D'C information structure model, it will be exploded. If not, a full-text search is performed. In the advanced search, complex searches are possible combining Boolean operators with meta-terms, keywords, subheadings and resource types. D'C uses two standard tools for organising information: the MeSH thesaurus and the Dublin Core metadata format. Resources included in D'C are described according to the following elements: title, author or creator, subject and keywords, description, publishers, date, resource type, format, identifier, and language.

Abstract: The rapid increase in the price of electronic journals has made the optimization of collection management an urgent task. As there is currently no standard procedure for the evaluation of this problem, we applied the Reading Factor (RF), an electronically computed indicator used for consultation of individual articles. The aim of our study was to assess the cost effective impact of modifications in our digital library (i.e. change of access from the Intranet to the Internet or change in editorial policy). The digital OVID library at Rouen University Hospital continues to be cost-effective in comparison with the interlibrary loan costs. Moreover, when electronic versions are offered alongside a limited amount of interlibrary loans, a reduction in library costs was observed.

Abstract: Les ressources disponibles sur l'Internet concernant l'enseignement et la formation dans le domaine de la médecine sont en croissance exponentielle. L'objectif de Doc'CISMeF est de créer un outil de recherche générique fondé sur un modèle d'information qui encapsule le thésaurus MeSH. Pour indexer les ressources de qualité, Doc'CISMeF utilise 4 niveaux hiérarchiques : métaterme, mot-clé, qualificatif et type de ressources. Deux recherches sont possibles dans Doc'CISMeF :- la recherche simple qui permet à l'utilisateur de saisir un terme ou une expression ; si ce terme appartient à notre modèle d'information, il sera explosé, c'est-à-dire que Doc'CESMeF affichera toutes les ressources indexées avec des termes hiérarichiquement inférieurs ; - la recherche avancée permet des requêtes plus complexes, combinant avec des opérateurs booléens, méta-termes, mots-clés , qualificatifs et types de ressources, mais aussi tous les champs de Doc'CISMeF, comme par exemple la cible d'une ressource éducative, notamment le cycle d'études. Doc'CISMeF utilise deux outils standards pour organiser l'information le thésaurus MeSH et le format de données et de méta-données Dublin Core. Les champs de Doc'CISMeF sont: titre, auteur, desciption, site éditeur, date, identifiant, format, langue, mots-clés et type de ressources, institution, ville départemen ou province ou état, pays public concerné, coût, parrainage. Doc'CISMeF est un des outils de recherche qui sera utilisé au sein de la future Université Médicale Virtuelle Francophone.

Abstract: In the year 2000, the Internet became a major source of health information for the health professional and the Netizen. The objective of Doc'CISMeF (D'C) was to create a powerful generic search tool based on an structured information model which â encapsulates' the MeSH thesaurus to index and retrieve quality health resources on the Internet. To index resources, D'C uses four sections in its information model: 'meta-term', keyword, subheading, and resource type. Two search options are available: simple and advanced. The simple search requires the end-user to input a single term or expression. If this term belongs to the D'C information structure model, it will be exploded. If not, a full-text search is performed. In the advanced search, complex searches are possible combining Boolean operators with meta-terms, keywords, subheadings and resource types. D'C uses two standard tools for organising information: the MeSH thesaurus and the Dublin Core metadata format. Resources included in D'C are described according to the following elements: title, author or creator, subject and keywords, description, publisher, date, resource type, format, identifier, and language.

Abstract: Among the many bibliometric criteria used to evaluate biomedical journals, the impact factor is the most commonly used. Despite its limitations, it quantifies the influence of a journal on secondary publications. It does not however evaluate the practical usefulness of primary documents. Usefulness is field-related and varies greatly among specialities. We introduce a new bibliographic criterion, the "reading factor", and define it as the ratio between the number of electronic consultations of a particular journal (i.e., number of clicks on a hyper-link) and the mean number of electronic consultations of all the journals studied (itself calculated by dividing the total number of electronic accesses by the number of journals in the database). We describe its observed distribution, relative to that of the impact factor, based on electronic consultation records from our University Hospital medical digital library, where full-text electronic versions of 45 major biomedical journals have been available since December 1997. From this analysis we found no correlation between the 1999 reading factor and the 1998 impact factor of these 45 journals, and we observed a dramatic change in the hierarchy of journals upon using the reading factor as the yardstick rather than the impact factor. Moreover, we describe how using the reading factor has helped in managing the collection of our University Hospital's virtual library. The selection of journals to be discarded from the virtual library for the year 2001 was based on journals' RF values and this process will repeated over the coming years. The reading factor also permits a cost-analysis of a virtual library. CONCLUSION: The measurement of the reading factor is highly automated, practical and efficient. It appears as a new tool for electronic collection management by librarians, well fitting with economical data.

Abstract: MeSH-indexed Internet health directories must provide a mapping from natural language queries to MeSH terms so that both health professionals and the general public can query their contents. We describe here the design of lexical knowledge bases for mapping French expressions to MeSH terms, and the initial evaluation of their contribution to Doc'CISMeF, the search tool of a MeSH-indexed directory of French-language medical Internet resources. The observed trend is in favor of the use of morphological knowledge as a moderate (approximately 5 but effective factor for improving query to term mapping capabilities.
