Ontological and Non-Ontological Resources for Associating Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities Terms to SNOMED Clinical Terms With Semantic Properties by Cédric Bousquet, Cédric Bousquet, Julien Souvignet, Julien Souvignet, Éric Sadou, Marie-Christine Jaulent, Gunnar Declerck

“…Our objective was to evaluate the potential of reuse of ontological and non-ontological resources for generating such definitions for MedDRA.Methods: We developed several methods that collectively allow a semiautomatic semantic enrichment of MedDRA: 1) using MedDRA-to-SNOMED Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) mappings (available in the Unified Medical Language System metathesaurus or other mapping resources, e.g., the MedDRA preferred term “hepatitis B” is associated to the SNOMED CT concept “type B viral hepatitis”) to extract term definitions (e.g., “hepatitis B” is associated with the following properties: has finding site liver structure, has associated morphology inflammation morphology, and has causative agent hepatitis B virus); 2) using MedDRA labels and lexical/syntactic methods for automatic decomposition of complex MedDRA terms (e.g., the MedDRA systems organ class “blood and lymphatic system disorders” is decomposed in blood system disorders and lymphatic system disorders) or automatic suggestions of properties (e.g., the string “cyclic” in preferred term “cyclic neutropenia” leads to the property has clinical course cyclic).Results: The Unified Medical Language System metathesaurus was the main ontological resource reusable for generating formal definitions for MedDRA terms. …”

Preoperative intralesional injection of triamcinolone acetonide for a large head and neck lymphangioma in a baby: a case report by Julius July, Sophie Peeters

“…Lymphangiomas (LMs) are uncommon congenital malformations of the lymphatic system, with an estimated incidence of one in 2,000 to 4,000 live births.1 About half of these lesions are diagnosed at birth, and by two years of age, 90% of those with lesions have been diagnosed.2 Histologically, LMs are benign lesions; however, they can pose a serious threat to the patient due to possible growth into surrounding structures, sometimes causing life-threatening complications. …”
