http://www.rad.upenn.edu/sbia/braid/braid_web/index.html

Large-scale archive of normalized digital spatial and functional data with an analytical query mechanism. One of its many applications is the elucidation of brain structure-function relationships. BRAID stores spatially defined data from digital brain images which have been mapped into normalized Cartesian coordinates, allowing image data from large populations of patients to be combined and compared. The database also contains neurological data from each patient and a query mechanism that can perform statistical structure-function correlations. The project is developing database technology for the manipulation and analysis of 3-dimensional brain images derived from MRI, PET, CT, etc. BRAID is based on the PostgreSQL server, an object/relational DBMS, which allows a standard relational DBMS to be augmented with application-specific datatypes and operators. The BRAID project is adding operations and datatypes to support querying, manipulation and analysis of 3D medical images, including: * Image Datatypes: BRAID supports a family of 3D image datatypes, each having an abstract type and an implementation type. Abstract types include boolean (for regions of interest), integer, float, vector (for representing morphological changes), tensor (for representing derivatives and standard deviations of vector images) and color. Implementation types at present include line-segment format and voxel array. * Image Operators: BRAID supports addition of images, multiplication (which is interpreted as intersection for boolean images), coercion of an image''s abstract or implementation type to another value, and determination of volumes of regions of interest. * Statistical Operators: A chi-squared test has been added to SQL as an aggregate operator on pairs of boolean values. * Web Interface: A general-purpose Web gateway allows the results of queries that return computed images to be displayed. You can download the BRAID source code 2.0. This version is developed under postgreSQL 7.3.4., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://gero.usc.edu/CBPH/network/index.shtml

A network to improve measurement of biological risk for late life health outcomes in large representative samples of populations. Activities of the network include designing and carrying out a series of focused meetings, interactive activities, workshops, and pilot projects to harmonize and develop measurement of biological risk in populations. This project will improve the methods of measuring health used in populations and improve comparability of results over time and across studies, which is important for monitoring population health. Biological risk represents objective measurement of major dimensions of population health. The level of risk can indicate the health of the population, need for health care treatment in a population, and the effectiveness of that treatment in controlling risk or delaying disease progression, and death. The measurement of biological risk in large populations often requires adoption of methods not used in laboratory settings. The overarching goal of the network is to promote interdisciplinary research that clarifies the biological paths to health outcomes that can be measured or monitored in population surveys. The network will address the following questions: * What array of biological markers can be included reliably and validly in population studies in order to better monitor health and predict health outcomes at the older ages? * What are the best methods of collecting biological risk information under a variety of circumstances? * What are the best methods for processing the biological risk information collected? * What methods of harmonization will allow us to compare biological risk across studies? * What are the best approaches to measurement of cumulative biological risk or dimensions of biological risk for a variety of health outcomes in a variety of settings? * What are the best approaches in including indicators of genetic risk for complex diseases and conditions into data from population-based surveys? * How do we best capture indicators of life-long social, psychological and economic conditions along with lifelong biological risk to explain later life health outcomes? * What particular ethical issues are posed by our linking of biological data to extensive social, psychological, and economic information? A dataset of descriptions of Selected Population Studies with Biomarkers is available.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on Septemeber 02, 2014. Through a collaborative effort with experts in doctor-elderly patient interaction who participated in the development of ADEPT, a database of approximately 435 audio and video tapes of visits of patients age 65 and older (n=46) to their primary physician was established for testing ADEPT and for access by medical educators and researchers. Data associated with each tape include reason for visit, physician characteristics (age, race, gender), patient characteristics (age, race, gender), companion characteristics (age, race, gender), and length of doctor-patient relationship. Through a collaborative effort with experts in doctor-elderly patient interaction who participated in the development of ADEPT, a database of approximately 435 audio and video tapes of visits of patients age 65 and older (n=46) to their primary physician was established for testing ADEPT and for access by medical educators and researchers. Data associated with each tape include reason for visit, physician characteristics (age, race, gender), patient characteristics (age, race, gender), companion characteristics (age, race, gender), and length of doctor-patient relationship. Patient visits to their primary physician were videotaped at four sites: an academic medical center in the Midwest, an academic medical center in the Southwest, a suburban managed care medical group, and an urban group of physicians in independent practice. Repeat visits between the same doctor and patient were taped for 19 patients resulting in 48 tapes of multiple visits. Patients were recruited in the waiting room for a convenience sample. Before the visit, patients provided demographic data and completed a global satisfaction form. Following the visit, patients completed the SF-36, and the ABIM for patient satisfaction. Two weeks following the visit, patients were contacted by telephone and asked about their understanding, compliance and their utilization of health services over the past year. At twelve months, patients were contacted by telephone for administration of the SF-36, the global satisfaction form, and the utilization of health services survey. Data Availability: Archived at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine Library. Interested researchers and medical educators should contact the PI, Mary Ann Cook, JVCRadiology (at) sbcglobal.net * Dates of Study: 1998-2001 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: 46

The Brain Molecular Anatomy Project is a trans-NIH project aimed at understanding gene expression and function in the nervous system. BMAP has two major scientific goals: # Gene discovery: to catalog of all the genes expressed in the nervous system, under both normal and abnormal conditions. # Gene expression analysis: to monitor gene expression patterns in the nervous system as a function of cell type, anatomical location, developmental stage, and physiological state, and thus gain insight into gene function. In pursuit of these goals, BMAP has launched several initiatives to provide resources and funding opportunities for the scientific community. These include several Requests for Applications and Requests for Proposals, descriptions of which can be found in this Web site. BMAP is also in the process of establishing physical and electronic resources for the community, including repositories of cDNA clones for nervous system genes, and databases of gene expression information for the nervous system. Most of the BMAP initiatives so far have focused on the mouse as a model species because of the ease of experimental and genetic manipulation of this organism, and because many models of human disease are available in the mouse. However, research in humans, other mammalian species, non-mammalian vertebrates, and invertebrates is also being funded through BMAP. For the convenience of interested investigators, we have established this Web site as a central information resource, focusing on major NIH-sponsored funding opportunities, initiatives, genomic resources available to the research community, courses and scientific meetings related to BMAP initiatives, and selected reports and publications. When appropriate, we will also post initiatives not directly sponsored by BMAP, but which are deemed relevant to its goals. Posting decisions are made by the Trans-NIH BMAP Committee
