RESUMO

Objective: i2b2 offers the possibility to store biomedical data of different projects in subject oriented data marts of the data warehouse, which potentially requires data replication between different projects and also data synchronization in case of data changes. We present an approach that can save this effort and assess its query performance in a case study that reflects real-world scenarios. Material and Methods: For data segregation, we used PostgreSQL's row level security (RLS) feature, the unit test framework pgTAP for validation and testing as well as the i2b2 application. No change of the i2b2 code was required. Instead, to leverage orchestration and deployment, we additionally implemented a command line interface (CLI). We evaluated performance using 3 different queries generated by i2b2, which we performed on an enlarged Harvard demo dataset. Results: We introduce the open source Python CLI i2b2rls, which orchestrates and manages security roles to implement data marts so that they do not need to be replicated and synchronized as different i2b2 projects. Our evaluation showed that our approach is on average 3.55 and on median 2.71 times slower compared to classic i2b2 data marts, but has more flexibility and easier setup. Conclusion: The RLS-based approach is particularly useful in a scenario with many projects, where data is constantly updated, user and group requirements change frequently or complex user authorization requirements have to be defined. The approach applies to both the i2b2 interface and direct database access.

RESUMO

Substantial advances in methods of collecting and aggregating large amounts of biomedical data have been met with insufficient measures of protecting it from unwarranted access and use. Most of the current layers of protection are merely aimed at ensuring compliance with regulations (e.g., the EU's General Data Protection Regulation) but do not represent a vision of privacy-by-design as an efficient and ethical advantage in biomedical research and clinical applications. This not only slows down the pace of such efforts but also leaves the data exposed to a wide spectrum of cyberattacks. This work presents an overview of recent advancements in data and compuation security, along with a discussion of their limitations and potential for deployement in both health care and research settings.

RESUMO

We present a work-in-progress software project which aims to assist cross-database medical research and knowledge acquisition from heterogeneous sources. Using a Natural Language Processing (NLP) model based on deep learning algorithms, topical similarities are detected, going beyond measures of connectivity via citation or database suggestion algorithms. A network is generated based on the NLP-similarities between them, and then presented within an explorable 3D environment. Our software will then generate a list of publications and datasets which pertain to a certain topic of interest, based on their level of similarity in terms of knowledge representation.

RESUMO

The National Library of Medicine (NLM) controls and publishes the thesaurus Medical Subject Headings which is used for indexing PubMed. Besides an XML export, the NLM offers a web based MeSH browser. The platform contains English terms. The German Institute for Medical Documentation and Information (DIMDI) partially translated and published these terms. Recently, the German National Library of Medicine (ZB-MED) overtook the translation of MeSH. However, there is no dedicated platform which focuses on MeSH and covers multiple languages. Here, we address this gap, by offering a modern multilingual searchable MeSH browser. A modular platform using open source technology is presented. The frontend enables the user to search and browse terms and switch between different languages. The current version of the presented MeSH browser contains English and German MeSH terms and can be accessed at https://mesh-browser.de.
