Received: 27 September 2019; Accepted: 22 October 2019; Published: 29 October 2019 Abstract: Electronic Health Records (EHR) are a rich repository of valuable clinical information that exist in primary and secondary care databases. In order to utilize EHRs for medical observational research a range of algorithms for automatically identifying individuals with a specific phenotype have been developed. This review summarizes and offers a critical evaluation of the literature relating to studies conducted into the development of EHR phenotyping systems. This review describes phenotyping systems and techniques based on structured and unstructured EHR data. Articles published on PubMed and Google scholar between 2013 and 2017 have been reviewed, using search terms derived from Medical Subject Headings (MeSH).

UTEX 3007, which we isolated from multiple locations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Metabolomic analyses of Chloroidium sp. UTEX 3007 indicated that the alga accumulates a broad range of carbon sources, including several desiccation tolerance-promoting sugars and unusually large stores of palmitate. Growth assays re- vealed capacities to grow in salinities from zero to 60 g/L and to grow heterotrophically on >40 distinct carbon sources.

Lluís Companys 23, 08010, Barcelona, Spain. 3 Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), C/ Jordi Girona 31, 08034, Barcelona, Spain * corresponding authors: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Motivation: Biological ontologies, such as the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) and the Gene Ontology (GO), are extensively used in biomedical research to find enrichment in the annotations of specific gene sets. However, the interpretation of the encoded information would greatly benefit from methods that effectively interoperate between multiple ontologies providing molecular details of disease-related features. Results: In this work, we present a statistical framework based on graph theory to infer direct associations between HPO and GO terms that do not share co-annotated genes. The method enables to map genotypic features to phenotypic features thus providing a valid tool for bridging functional and pathological annotations. We validated the results by (a) supporting evidence of known drug-target associations (PanDrugs), protein-protein physical and functional interactions (BioGRID and STRING), and common pathways (Reactome); (b) comparing relationships inferred from early ontology releases with knowledge contained in the latest versions. Applications: We applied our method to improve the interpretation of molecular processes involved in pathological conditions, illustrating the applicability of our predictions with a number of biological examples.
