RE: Evidence

Interesting question. There are clinical rules in the form of "X diagnosed_by Y", e.g. "Diabetes Mellitus proven by fasting plasma glucose >= 126 mg/dL" where a laboratory test result is expressly intended as evidence to support a specific diagnosis. I'd think this would also be true for an i

Re: Evidence

Ditto - thanks to Matthias, Vipul, and Matt for leading the charge and investing the time. Excellent point re: namespaces, Eric. It's becoming quite clear what a critical role these need to play in a shared, interoperable formal semantic ecosystem. I'm pretty busy with a meeting coming u

RE: Evidence

OK! The wiki page is now ready... Matthias, Thanks for getting this started! Matt, have incoporated your view point, feel free to modify it if required... http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLS/Evidence Bill, please add your references to this web page... I think HCLS + BIONT can make some so

I volunteer to do that (as I was planning to do that anyway) I believe this is another area, like Process which cuts across HCLS areas - biological and clinical This is another place we can coordinate with URW3 Cheers, ---Vipul === Vipul Kas

Bill, Thanks for sending out the urls-- always good for a discussion thread-group to have the same common references! It may be necessary to identify not one, but a few definitions of evidence to be used by different groups (e.g., researchers def vs. HC compliance forms-- Dirk's point)-- remem

Re: Evidence

Sorry I've been out of touch on this and other HCLS IG activities, but I've been - and will continue to be for some time - tied up with other tasks. I believe both issues as originally raised by Matthias aer extremely important: a) creating a cogent and concise means of inter-relating enti
