ABSTRACT
This paper describes the development of Health Level Seven Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource (FHIR) profiles for pathology reports integrated with whole slide images and clinical data to create a pathology research database. A report template was designed to collect structured reports, enabling pathologists to select structured terms based on a checklist, allowing for the standardization of terms used to describe tumor features. We gathered and analyzed 190 non-small-cell lung cancer pathology reports in free text format, which were then structured by mapping the itemized vocabulary to FHIR observation resources, using international standard terminologies, such as the International Classification of Diseases, LOINC, and SNOMED CT. The resulting FHIR profiles were published as an implementation guide, which includes 25 profiles for essential data elements, value sets, and structured definitions for integrating clinical data and pathology images associated with the pathology report. These profiles enable the exchange of structured data between systems and facilitate the integration of pathology data into electronic health records, which can improve the quality of care for patients with cancer.

Cyclea gracillima Diels is a Taiwanese native medicinal herb. However, there are currently few relevant reports on its biochemical activity. In this study, the antioxidant attributes of the ethanol and hot water extracts of this herb were assayed using in vitro models, including the following: 2,2-diphenyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-hydrazyl radical scavenging, Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity, reducing power, and chelating ferrous ions. The following biochemical models were also assayed: inhibition of human low density lipoprotein oxidation, inhibition of human erythrocyte hemolysis, and scavenging oxygen radicals in human blood. The composition and content of flavonoids and phenolic acids in these extracts were also analyzed. The results showed that these extracts with high polyphenol levels presented remarkable antioxidant effects in all assays, especially when extracted with ethanol. Six phenolic acids (mainly ferulic acid, sinapic acid, and syringic acid) and 12 flavonoids (mainly narigenin, myricetin, naringin, and apigenin) were found in these extracts.
