http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/MetaQC/

Software for quality control and diagnosis for microarray meta-analysis. Quantitative quality control measures include: (1) internal homogeneity of co-expression structure among studies (internal quality control; IQC); (2) external consistency of co-expression structure correlating with pathway database (external quality control; EQC); (3) accuracy of differentially expressed gene detection (accuracy quality control; AQCg) or pathway identification (AQCp); (4) consistency of differential expression ranking in genes (consistency quality control; CQCg) or pathways (CQCp). For each quality control index, the p-values from statistical hypothesis testing are minus log transformed and PCA biplots were applied to assist visualization and decision. Results generate systematic suggestions to exclude problematic studies in microarray meta-analysis and potentially can be extended to GWAS or other types of genomic meta-analysis. The identified problematic studies can be scrutinized to identify technical and biological causes (e.g. sample size, platform, tissue collection, preprocessing etc) of their bad quality or irreproducibility for final inclusion / exclusion decision.

http://www.diogenes-eu.org

Diogenes is a pan-European Programme targeting the obesity problem from a dietary perspective: seeking new insights and new routes to prevention. An Integrated Project of the EU Sixth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (2005-2009). A new methodology has been developed for consistent assignment of GI values to foods across the five European databases used in the Diogenes intervention study. GI values have been assigned according to five decreasing levels of confidence: (1) Measured values for specific foods; (2) Published values from published sources; (3) Equivalent values where published values for similar foods existed; (4) Estimated values three values selected representing low/medium/high GI ranges; (5) Nominal values assigned as 70, where no other value could be assigned with sufficient confidence.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 4, 2023.Consortium that developed brief, standardized and reliable procedures for the evaluation and diagnosis of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias of the elderly. These procedures included data forms, flipbooks, guidebooks, brochures, instruction manuals and demonstration tapes, which are now available for purchase. The CERAD assessment material can be used for research purposes as well as for patient care. CERAD has developed several basic standardized instruments, each consisting of brief forms designed to gather data on normal persons as well as on cognitively impaired or behaviorally disturbed individuals. Such data permit the identification of dementia based on clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral or neuropathological criteria. Staff at participating CERAD sites were trained and certified to administer the assessment instruments and to evaluate the subjects enrolled in the study. Cases and controls were evaluated at entry and annually thereafter including (when possible) autopsy examination of the brain to track the natural progression of AD and to obtain neuropathological confirmation of the clinical diagnosis. The CERAD database has become a major resource for research in Alzheimer's disease. It contains longitudinal data for periods as long as seven years on the natural progression of the disorder as well as information on clinical and neuropsychological changes and neuropathological manifestations., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 5, 2023. MedScan is a fast and flexible biomedical information extraction technology. It uses dictionaries to identify individual biomedical terms (proteins, cellular processes, small molecules, diseases, etc) referred to in literature articles, and applies advanced natural language processing techniques to detect the relationships within the article and extract these terms and the relationships; the overall process of detection, identification, extraction and assembling, is termed Information Harvesting. Information extracted by MedScan represents the multiple aspects of protein function, including protein modification, cellular localization, protein-protein interactions, gene expression regulation, molecular transport and synthesis, as well as association with diseases, and regulation of various cellular processes. This scope can be broadened by modifying information extraction rules and the dictionaries. Dictionaries can be assembled on any topic or area that is represented in the literature you wish to harvest. High-throughput data generation methodologies like microarray gene expression require new approaches for gathering information for data analysis. For the best results, computational approaches used for high-throughput data analysis require that biological information from the literature be a coherent and integrated part of the analysis software itself. Pathway Studio meets this challenge through its MedScan Technology and underlying ResNet database. All editions of Pathway Studio contain MedScan Technology to harvest information from the literature and to save this information in the Pathway Studio ResNet database ready for data analysis. MedScan is more than a web search engine. Indeed, the output of a Google search can be channeled into MedScan for example. Web searches, like Google, are excellent at finding items as a result of a query. A quick look at the output list usually locates the item for which you are looking. This approach however, is not well suited for information and knowledge gathering. Also, once information is gathered, where do you put it for later computational use? MedScan meets this challenge for the area of biomedical literature and biomedical online information. PubMed meets the needs for a central repository of biomedical literature. Researchers can go to PubMed and search for any topic and articles of interest, much like a web type of search. However, just like a web type of search, PubMed also provides a list of all the hits with a link to the articles. If a single article, or even just a few, are sought, this search approach is useful. Alternatively, MedScan will list all the articles of interest but additionally scans the text for relationships, highlights these relationships in the articles and then lists these relationships and the biological molecules and processes involved in the relationships in separate tables. The tables of relationships can be viewed graphically in Pathway Studio and can be saved into the ResNet database for use in experimental data analysis.

http://protege.stanford.edu

Protege is a free, open-source platform that provides a growing user community with a suite of tools to construct domain models and knowledge-based applications with ontologies. At its core, Protege implements a rich set of knowledge-modeling structures and actions that support the creation, visualization, and manipulation of ontologies in various representation formats. Protege can be customized to provide domain-friendly support for creating knowledge models and entering data. Further, Protege can be extended by way of a plug-in architecture and a Java-based Application Programming Interface (API) for building knowledge-based tools and applications. An ontology describes the concepts and relationships that are important in a particular domain, providing a vocabulary for that domain as well as a computerized specification of the meaning of terms used in the vocabulary. Ontologies range from taxonomies and classifications, database schemas, to fully axiomatized theories. In recent years, ontologies have been adopted in many business and scientific communities as a way to share, reuse and process domain knowledge. Ontologies are now central to many applications such as scientific knowledge portals, information management and integration systems, electronic commerce, and semantic web services. The Protege platform supports two main ways of modeling ontologies: * The Protege-Frames editor enables users to build and populate ontologies that are frame-based, in accordance with the Open Knowledge Base Connectivity protocol (OKBC). In this model, an ontology consists of a set of classes organized in a subsumption hierarchy to represent a domain's salient concepts, a set of slots associated to classes to describe their properties and relationships, and a set of instances of those classes - individual exemplars of the concepts that hold specific values for their properties. * The Protege-OWL editor enables users to build ontologies for the Semantic Web, in particular in the W3C's Web Ontology Language (OWL). An OWL ontology may include descriptions of classes, properties and their instances. Given such an ontology, the OWL formal semantics specifies how to derive its logical consequences, i.e. facts not literally present in the ontology, but entailed by the semantics. These entailments may be based on a single document or multiple distributed documents that have been combined using defined OWL mechanisms (see the OWL Web Ontology Language Guide). Protege is based on Java, is extensible, and provides a plug-and-play environment that makes it a flexible base for rapid prototyping and application development.

http://mirnamap.mbc.nctu.edu.tw

A database of experimentally verified microRNAs and miRNA target genes in human, mouse, rat, and other metazoan genomes. In addition to known miRNA targets, three computational tools previously developed, such as miRanda, RNAhybrid and TargetScan, were applied for identifying miRNA targets in 3'-UTR of genes. In order to reduce the false positive prediction of miRNA targets, several criteria are supported for filtering the putative miRNA targets. Furthermore, miRNA expression profiles can provide valuable clues for investigating the properties of miRNAs, such tissue specificity and differential expression in cancer/normal cell. Therefore, we performed the Q-PCR experiments for monitoring the expression profiles of 224 human miRNAs in eighteen major normal tissues in human. The cross-reference between the miRNA expression profiles and the expression profiles of its target genes can provide effective viewpoint to understand the regulatory functions of the miRNA.
