Welcome and agenda


PrioritiesLinda Bird
  • Discuss current priorities and new requirements
URIs
Expression Templates

For discussion:

 [[0..1]] { [[0..1]]   246075003 |Causative agent|  = [[+id (<   410607006 |Organism| ) @Organism]] }

Is it correct to say either one of the cardinality blocks is redundant? What are the implications of 1..1 on either side? This is less obvious for self grouped

Description TemplatesKai Kewley
  • Overview of planned specification
Expression Constraint Language
  • Review scope and syntax of previous internal implementation (Kai Kewley )
  • Recap where we were up to with adding term-searches to ECL (see below)

Previous discussions

Syntax

{{ term  =  [ termSearchType : ] "String"  }}

Term Search Type

    1. Wild Card Match (collation) - e.g.
      • {{  term = wild:"*heart*“ }}
      • {{  term = wild (sv):"*hjärta*“ }}
    1. Perl Regex - e.g.
      • {{ term = regex:".*heart.*” }}
    1. Word Prefix Any Order - e.g.
      • {{ term = match:“hear att” }}
    1. Default (word prefix any order) - e.g.
      • {{ term = "hear att" }}
      • {{ term = "*heart*“ }}

Potential Examples

    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”}}
    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}}
    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} AND << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “hjärta”, languageCode = "sv"}}
    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} {{ term = “hjärta”, languageCode = "sv"}}
    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} OR << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “hjärta", languageCode = "sv"}}
    • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ (term = “heart”, languageCode = "en") OR (term = “hjärta", languageCode = "sv")}}
    • (<< 64572001 |Disease|: |Associated morphology| = *) {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en", }} {{ term = “hjärta", languageCode = "sv"}}
    • (<< 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “*cardio*” }}) MINUS (<< 64572001 |Disease| {{ term != “*heart*” }})
    • Recommendation to be made on (based on investigation of grammar):
      • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} AND {{ term = “hjärta”, languageCode = "sv"}}
      • << 64572001 |Disease| ( {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} OR {{ term = “hjärta”, languageCode = "sv"}} )
      • << 64572001 |Disease| ( {{ term = “heart”, languageCode = "en"}} MINUS {{ term = “hjärta”, languageCode = "sv"}} )

Use Cases

    • Intentionally define a reference set for chronic disease. Starting point was ECL with modelling; This misses concepts modelled using the pattern you would expect. So important in building out that reference set.
    • Authors quality assuring names of concepts
    • Checking translations, retranslating. Queries for a concept that has one word in Swedish, another word in English
    • AU use case would have at most 3 or 4 words in match
    • Consistency of implementation in different terminology services
    • Authoring use cases currently supported by description templates
    • A set of the "*ectomy"s and "*itis"s

Questions

    • Do we include 'typeId' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ D.term = “*heart*”, typeId =  900000000000013009 |Synonym| }}
      • NO
    • Do we include 'type' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ D.term = “*heart*”, D.type synonym }}
      • NO
    • Do we include 'languageCode' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ D.term = “*heart*”, D.type synonym, D.languageCode = “en” }}
      • YES
    • Do we include 'caseSignificanceId' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ D.term = “*Heart*”, D.caseSignificanceId = 900000000000017005 |case sensitive|}}
      • NO
    • Do we include 'caseSignificance' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ D.term = “*Heart*”, D.caseSignificance = sensitive }}
      • NO
    • Do we include 'language' and 'version' - e.g. << 64572001 |Disease| {{ term = “*heart*” }} VERSION = http://…, LANGUAGE = (999001881000000108|Gastro LRS|, |GB English|)
      • NO
    • Do we include syntactic sugar - e.g.
      • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ preferredTerm = “*heart*”, languageRefSet = en-gb}}
      • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ fullySpecifiedTerm = “*heart*”, languageRefSet=en-gb}}
      • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ acceptableTerm = “*heart*”, languageRefSet = en-gb}}
      • << 64572001 |Disease| {{ preferredTerm = “*heart*”}} FROM  version = X, language = Y
      • NO
    • Do we use/require the "D" at the start of "term"?
      • NO
    • Packaging - How do we package this extension to ECL
      • A new version of ECL - e.g. 2.0 (or 1.4?) → same specification document
      • An optional extension to ECL for SNOMED authors/content developers - e.g. ECL++ / ECLv1.3++ → An appendix on the ECL document? (with Filter Language)
      • A subset/profile of the Query Language → A separate document that defines SNOMED filters, which can be added to any version of ECL
      • Filter Language
Executing maps

Reverse memberOf function

  • What refsets is a concept a member of?

Proposed syntax to support execution of maps (Outstanding question: ECL or Query Language? Scope and packaging needs further discussion)

  • Example use cases
    • Mapping from international substance concepts to AMT substance concepts
    • Anatomy structure and part association reference set - e.g. find the anatomical parts of a given structure
  • Potential syntax to consider
    • Functional
      • mapTarget (|Anatomy structure and part association refset|, << |Upper abdomen structure|)
        • Return the map targets from the given map refset. where the referencedComponent matches the condition
      • mapSource (|Anatomy structure and part association refset|, << |Liver part|)
        • Return the referencedComponent from the given map refset, where the targetId matches the condition.
    • Dot notation + Attribute refinement
      • |Anatomy structure and part association refset| . |mapTarget|
      • |Anatomy structure and part association refset| . |referencedComponent| (Same as ^ |Anatomy structure and part association refset|)
      • ( |Anatomy structure and part association refset|: |referencedComponent| = << |Upper abdomen structure ) . |mapTarget|
      • ( |Anatomy structure and part association refset|: |mapTarget| = << |Upper abdomen structure ) . |referencedComponent|
    • Dot notation + Filters
      • ( |Anatomy structure and part association refset| {{ |referencedComponent| = << |Upper abdomen structure| }} ). |mapTarget|
      • ( |Anatomy structure and part association refset| {{ mapTarget = << |Upper abdomen structure| }} ) . |referencedComponent|
        • ^ ( |Anatomy structure and part association refset| {{ mapTarget = << |Upper abdomen structure| }} )
    • Specify value to be returned
      • ?|mapTarget|? |Anatomy structure and part association refset|
      • ?|mapTarget|? |Anatomy structure and part association refset| {{ |referencedComponent| = << |Upper abdomen structure| }}
      • ?|mapTarget|? |Anatomy structure and part association refset| : |referencedComponent| = << |Upper abdomen structure|
Returning attributesMichael Lawley

Proposal from Michael:

  • Currently ECL expressions can match (return) concepts that are either the source or the target of a relationship triple (target is accessed via the 'reverse' notation or 'dot notation', but not the relationship type (ie attribute name) itself. 

For example, I can write: 

<< 404684003|Clinical finding| : 363698007|Finding site| = <<66019005|Limb structure| 

<< 404684003|Clinical finding| . 363698007|Finding site| 

But I can't get all the attribute names that are used by << 404684003|Clinical finding| 

    • Perhaps something like:
      • ? R.type ? (<< 404684003 |Clinical finding|)
    • This could be extended to, for example, return different values - e.g.
      • ? |Simple map refset|.|maptarget| ? (^|Simple map refset| AND < |Fracture|)
Query Language
- Summary from previous meetings




Examples: version and language

Notes

    • Allow nested where, version, language
    • Scope of variables is inner query





Examples: where

Notes

      • Allow nested variable definitions, but recommend that people don't due to readability
      • Scope of variables is the inner query
      • No recursion e.g X WHERE X = 1234 MINUS X
        • ie can't use a variable in its own definition
        • ie X is only known on the left of the corresponding WHERE, and not on the right of the WHERE

Language preferences using multiple language reference sets

  • LRSs that use the same Language tend to use 'Addition' - i.e. child LRS only includes additional acceptable terms, but can override the preferred term

    • E.g. Regional LRS that adds local dialect to a National LRS

    • E.g. Specialty-specific LRS

    • E.g. Irish LRS that adds local preferences to the en-GB LRS

      • 99999900 |Irish language reference set| PLUS |GB English reference set|

  • LRSs that define a translation to a different language tend to use 'Replacement' - i.e. child LRS replaces set of acceptable and preferred terms for any associated concept

    • E.g. Danish LRS that does a partial translation of the International Release

      • 999999 |Danish language reference set| ELSE |GB English reference set|
