    abstract = {Objective: To assess the current use of big data and artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs). Methods: A systematic literature review was performed in PubMed MEDLINE in November 2018, with key words referring to big data, AI and RMDs. All original reports published in English were analysed. A mirror literature review was also performed outside of RMDs on the same number of articles. The number of data analysed, data sources and statistical methods used (traditional statistics, AI or both) were collected. The analysis compared findings within and beyond the field of RMDs. Results: Of 567 articles relating to RMDs, 55 met the inclusion criteria and were analysed, as well as 55 articles in other medical fields. The mean number of data points was 746 million (range 2000-5 billion) in RMDs, and 9.1 billion (range 100 000-200 billion) outside of RMDs. Data sources were varied: in RMDs, 26 (47{\%}) were clinical, 8 (15{\%}) biological and 16 (29{\%}) radiological. Both traditional and AI methods were used to analyse big data (respectively, 10 (18{\%}) and 45 (82{\%}) in RMDs and 8 (15{\%}) and 47 (85{\%}) out of RMDs). Machine learning represented 97{\%} of AI methods in RMDs and among these methods, the most represented was artificial neural network (20/44 articles in RMDs). Conclusions: Big data sources and types are varied within the field of RMDs, and methods used to analyse big data were heterogeneous. These findings will inform a European League Against Rheumatism taskforce on big data in RMDs.},

    abstract = {BACKGROUND: Tremendous opportunities for health research have been unlocked by the recent expansion of big data and artificial intelligence. However, this is an emergent area where recommendations for optimal use and implementation are needed. The objective of these European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) points to consider is to guide the collection, analysis and use of big data in rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders (RMDs). METHODS: A multidisciplinary task force of 14 international experts was assembled with expertise from a range of disciplines including computer science and artificial intelligence. Based on a literature review of the current status of big data in RMDs and in other fields of medicine, points to consider were formulated. Levels of evidence and strengths of recommendations were allocated and mean levels of agreement of the task force members were calculated. RESULTS: Three overarching principles and 10 points to consider were formulated. The overarching principles address ethical and general principles for dealing with big data in RMDs. The points to consider cover aspects of data sources and data collection, privacy by design, data platforms, data sharing and data analyses, in particular through artificial intelligence and machine learning. Furthermore, the points to consider state that big data is a moving field in need of adequate reporting of methods and benchmarking, careful data interpretation and implementation in clinical practice. CONCLUSION: These EULAR points to consider discuss essential issues and provide a framework for the use of big data in RMDs.},

    abstract = {BACKGROUND: Patient information in rare disease registries is generally collected from numerous data sources, necessitating the data to be federated. In addition, data for research purposes must be de-identified. Transforming nominative data into de-identified data is thus a key issue, while minimizing the number of identity duplicates. We propose a method enabling patient identity federation and rare disease data de-identification while preserving the pertinence of the provided data. RESULTS: We developed a rare disease patient identifier. The IdMR generation process is a three-phased algorithm involving a hash function to irreversibly de-identify nominative patient data, including those of foetuses. This process minimizes collision risks and reduces variability for the purpose of identity federation. The IdMR was generated for 360,000 patients of the CEMARA database. It allowed identity federation of 1771 duplicated files. No collisions were introduced. CONCLUSION: We examined and discussed the risks of collisions and the creation of duplicates as well as the risks of patient re-identification. We discussed our choice of nominative input information in light of that used by other patient identification solutions. The IdMR is a patient identifier that enables identity federation and file linkage. The simplicity of the algorithm and the universality and stability of the input data make it a good candidate for European cross-border rare disease projects.},

    abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2017 The Author(s). Background: In the last ten years, national rare disease networks have been established in France, including national centres of expertise and regional ones, with storage of patient data in a bioinformatics tool. The aim was to contribute to the development and evaluation of health strategies to improve the management of patients with rare diseases. The objective of this study has been to provide the first national-level data concerning rare diseases of the head, neck and teeth and to assess the balance between demand and supply of care in France. Methods: Centres of expertise for rare diseases record a minimum data set on their clinical cases, using a list of rare Head, Neck and Teeth diseases established in 2006. The present analysis focuses on 2008 to 2015 data based on the Orphanet nomenclature. Each rare disease RD "case" was defined by status "affected" and by the degree of diagnostic certainty, encoded as: confirmed, probable or non-classifiable. Analysed parameters, presented with their 95{\%} confidence intervals using a Poisson model, were the following: time and age at diagnosis, proportions of crude and standardized RD prevalence by age, gender and geographical site. The criteria studied were the proportions of patients in Paris Region and the "included cases geography", in which these proportions were projected onto the other French Regions, adjusting for local populations. Results: In Paris Region, estimated prevalence of these diseases was 5.58 per 10,000 inhabitants (95{\%} CI 4.3-7.1). At December 31st 2015, 11,342 patients were referenced in total in France, of whom 7294 were in Paris Region. More than 580 individual clinical entities (ORPHA code) were identified with their respective frequencies. Most abnormalities were diagnosed antenatally. Nearly 80{\%} of patients recorded come to Paris hospitals to obtain either diagnosis, care or follow up. We observed that the rarer the disease, the more patients were referred to Paris hospitals. Conclusions: A health network covering a range of aspects of the rare diseases problematic from diagnostics to research has been developed in France. Despite this, there is still a noticeable imbalance between health care supply and demand in this area.},

    abstract = {{\textcopyright} 2017 The Author(s). Background: Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is a rare, severely disabling, and life-shortening genetic disorder that causes the formation of heterotopic bone within soft connective tissue. Previous studies found that the FOP prevalence was about one in every two million lives. The aim of this study is to estimate the FOP prevalence in France by probabilistic record-linkage of 2 national databases: 1) the PMSI (Programme de m{\'{e}}dicalisation des syst{\`{e}}mes d'information), an administrative database that records all hospitalization activities in France and 2) CEMARA, a registry database developed by the French Centres of Reference for Rare Diseases. Results: Using a capture-recapture methodology to adjust the crude number of patients identified in both data sources, 89 FOP patients were identified, which results in a prevalence of 1.36 per million inhabitants (CI95{\%} = [1.10; 1.68]). FOP patients' mean age was 25 years, only 14.9{\%} were above 40 years, and 53{\%} of them were males. The first symptoms - beside toe malformations- occurred after birth for 97.3{\%} of them. Mean age at identified symptoms was 7 years and above 18 years for only 6.9{\%} of patients. Mean age at diagnosis was 10 years, and above 18 years for 14.9{\%} of the patients. FOP patients were distributed across France. Conclusions: Despite the challenge of ascertaining patients with rare diseases, we report a much higher prevalence of FOP in France than in previous studies elsewhere. We suggest that efforts to identify patients and confirm the diagnosis of FOP should be reinforced and extended at both national and European level.},

    abstract = {OBJECTIVES: To summarize key contributions to current research in the field of Clinical Research Informatics (CRI) and to select best papers published in 2015. METHOD: A bibliographic search using a combination of MeSH and free terms search over PubMed on Clinical Research Informatics (CRI) was performed followed by a double-blind review in order to select a list of candidate best papers to be then peer-reviewed by external reviewers. A consensus meeting between the two section editors and the editorial team was finally organized to conclude on the selection of best papers. RESULTS: Among the 579 returned papers published in the past year in the various areas of Clinical Research Informatics (CRI) - i) methods supporting clinical research, ii) data sharing and interoperability, iii) re-use of healthcare data for research, iv) patient recruitment and engagement, v) data privacy, security and regulatory issues and vi) policy and perspectives - the full review process selected four best papers. The first selected paper evaluates the capability of the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC) Operational Data Model (ODM) to support the representation of case report forms (in both the design stage and with patient level data) during a complete clinical study lifecycle. The second selected paper describes a prototype for secondary use of electronic health records data captured in non-standardized text. The third selected paper presents a privacy preserving electronic health record linkage tool and the last selected paper describes how big data use in US relies on access to health information governed by varying and often misunderstood legal requirements and ethical considerations. CONCLUSIONS: A major trend in the 2015 publications is the analysis of observational, "nonexperimental" information and the potential biases and confounding factors hidden in the data that will have to be carefully taken into account to validate new predictive models. In addiction, researchers have to understand complicated and sometimes contradictory legal requirements and to consider ethical obligations in order to balance privacy and promoting discovery.},

It is the case for the BNDMR project, the French rare disease registry, that aims to collect administrative and medical data of rare disease patients seen in different hospitals. To avoid duplicating data entry for health professionals, the project plans to deploy connectors with the existing systems to automatically retrieve data. Given the data heterogeneity and the large number of source systems, the automation of connectors creation is required. In this context, we propose a methodology that optimizes the use of existing alignment approaches in the data integration processes. The generated mappings are formalized in exploitable mapping expressions. Following this methodology, a process has been experimented on specific data types of a source system: Boolean and predefined lists. As a result, effectiveness of the used alignment approach has been enhanced and more good mappings have been detected. Nonetheless, further improvements could be done to deal with the semantic issue and process other data types.},

It is a complex task that could evolve over time depending on the natural history of the disease and the evolution of the scientific knowledge. Most rare diseases have genetic causes and recent improvements of sequencing techniques contribute to the discovery of many new diseases every year. Diagnosis coding in the rare disease field requires data from multiple knowledge bases to be aggregated in order to offer the clinician a global information space from possible diagnosis to clinical signs (phenotypes) and known genetic mutations (genotype). Nowadays, the major barrier to the coding activity is the lack of consolidation of such information scattered in different classifications such as Orphanet, OMIM or HPO. The Linking Open data for Rare Diseases (LORD) Web portal we developed stands as the first attempt to fill this gap by offering an integrated view of 8.400 rare diseases linked to more than 14.500 signs and 3.270 genes. The application provides a browsing feature to navigate through the relationships between diseases, signs and genes, and some Application Programming Interfaces to help its integration in health information systems in routine.},

    abstract = {BACKGROUND: Although rare disease patients make up approximately 6-8{\%} of all patients in Europe, it is often difficult to find the necessary expertise for diagnosis and care and the patient numbers needed for rare disease research. The second French National Plan for Rare Diseases highlighted the necessity for better care coordination and epidemiology for rare diseases. A clinical data standard for normalization and exchange of rare disease patient data was proposed. The original methodology used to build the French national minimum data set (F-MDS-RD) common to the 131 expert rare disease centers is presented. METHODS: To encourage consensus at a national level for homogeneous data collection at the point of care for rare disease patients, we first identified four national expert groups. We reviewed the scientific literature for rare disease common data elements (CDEs) in order to build the first version of the F-MDS-RD. The French rare disease expert centers validated the data elements (DEs). The resulting F-MDS-RD was reviewed and approved by the National Plan Strategic Committee. It was then represented in an HL7 electronic format to maximize interoperability with electronic health records. RESULTS: The F-MDS-RD is composed of 58 DEs in six categories: patient, family history, encounter, condition, medication, and questionnaire. It is HL7 compatible and can use various ontologies for diagnosis or sign encoding. The F-MDS-RD was aligned with other CDE initiatives for rare diseases, thus facilitating potential interconnections between rare disease registries. CONCLUSIONS: The French F-MDS-RD was defined through national consensus. It can foster better care coordination and facilitate determining rare disease patients' eligibility for research studies, trials, or cohorts. Since other countries will need to develop their own standards for rare disease data collection, they might benefit from the methods presented here.},

Although large amounts of resistance data are gathered locally, they can-not be compared globally due to format and access diversity.We present an ontology-based integration approach serving an EU project in making antibiotics resistance data semantically and geographically interopera-ble. We particularly focus on EU-wide clinical data integration for real-time an-tibiotic resistance surveillance. The data semantics is formalized by multiple layers of terminology-bound description logic ontologies. Local database-to-RDF (D2R) converters, normalizers and data wrapper ontologies render hospi-tal data accessible to SPARQL queries, which popu late a mediator layer. This semiformal data is then integrated and rendered comparable via formal OWL domain ontologies and rule-driven reasoning applications. The presented inte-gration layer enables clinical data miners to query over multiple hospitals which behave like one homogeneous 'virtual clinical information system'. We show how cross-site querying can be achieved across borders, languages and different data models. Aside the drawbacks, we elaborate on the unique advantages over comparable previous efforts, i.e. tackling real-time data access and scalability.},

In the era of data sharing and systems interoperability, the automation of data schema alignment has become a priority. Discovering data mappings is the aim of many alignment approaches that have been described in the literature and the effectiveness of which depends on data specifications. In this context, we propose a method for mappings formalization that allows automated data integration processes optimization. This method, involving both data element level and value element level, allows an automated inference of mappings expressed by rules. In this paper, we start by describing the methods used to achieve this mappings formalization. Then, we explain how it has been validated by characterizing data from two use cases. We end up by discussing the objectives of the proposed formalization.},

One axis aims at building an historical database that would help identifying rare disease patients on the French territory and help in gaining knowledge about the adequacy between demand and offer of care for rare diseases. A second axis is dedicated to promote the constitution of cohorts of patients presenting rare diseases and to evaluate innovative therapies.
    The data gathered by the 131 expert centres and 501 centres of competence are heterogeneous and incomplete. The objective is to build a coordinated collection of data, which will be annotated with the Orphanet terminology.
    Based on the existing French resources (data and knowledge), we propose to build a coherent organisation of the information about rare diseases on the French territory by federating them under a unique French information system for rare diseases. This information system will be fed by patient data, through expert centres, into a national rare disease patient identification system where each health professional will be able to declare and follow his/her patients. This system will be connected to electronic patient management systems (through standard interfaces) to avoid double data capture. This identification system will help in building epidemiological studies. It will allow identifying patients for inclusion in clinical trials. It will also be an information source for patient recruitment for cohorts and advanced research involving {\{}$\backslash$textendash{\}}omics and biobanks data. As a central key asset of our information system, we propose the use of advanced knowledge management systems to manage knowledge about rare diseases, -omics and clinical data. The independent management of data and knowledge will guarantee the sustainability of our information system.

    abstract = {The amount of available data in information systems is constantly increasing and more and more efforts have been made in trying to interconnect this data in order to gain knowledge or meaning. Yet, these attempts at interconnecting such data have never been satisfactory enough when it comes to using the information at a wider scale. The origins of such difficulties are manifold. First, information is represented in many different structures. Second, the vocabulary used to express data is heterogeneous. Finally, the quality of the information is often too poor to be used and to withdraw any knowledge from it. Such observation applies specifically to the biomedical area where it is still difficult to agree on a common and shared representation (structures and vocabulary) concerning a particular sub-domain of the medical field. It would appear difficult in such a context to solve the problem of information sharing by imposing standard coding and standard information models. More recently, the introduction of semantics in the process of information sharing enables us to setup pivots representations which are independent from the structure or from the naming of the data. This thesis deals with the problematics of biomedical information sharing in the study of antibiotics resistance evolution to bacteries in Europe. Our general working hypothesis is : how can we share biomedical information in Europe in a non ambiguous way, in a fast way, and on demand ? Many issues are raised by this working hypothesis. We will deal with the issue of the quality of the data, the issue of the representation of data through their structure, their vocabulary, their semantics. We will also address the problems of alignment of data with domain ontologies. And the problem of data mediation helped with domain ontologies. We will then present a system of semantic interoperability based on rules which addresses the problem of semantic alignment of heterogeneous systems applied to our domain. Finally we will discuss how semantics can contribute to the improvement of information sharing and we will also discuss the limits of the current tools and methods.},

The DebugIT EU project promises to make this data geographically and semantically interoperable for case-based knowledge analysis approaches aiming at the discovery of patterns that help to align antibiotics treatment schemes. The semantic glue for this endeavor is DCO, an application ontology that enables data miners to query distributed clinical information systems in a semantically rich and content driven manner. DCO will hence serve as the core component of the interoperability platform for the DebugIT project. Here we present DCO and an approach thet uses the semantic web query language SPARQL to bind and ontologically query hospital database content using DCO and information model mediators. We provide a query example that indicates that ontological querying over heterogeneous information models is feasible via SPARQL construct- and resource mapping queries.},

An Inter-Operability Platform (IOP) addresses the key issue of establishing semantic interoperability between the real world (the CIS) and various components that have to exploit the real world data. We present the functional and architectural specification architecture of such IOP system. This work has been done within the context of the DebugIT1 European project (FP72).},

    abstract = {The expansion of biomedical knowledge, reduction in computing costs and spread of IT facilities have conducted to an escalation of the biomedical electronic data. However, these data are rarely integrated and analysed because of the insufficiency of specialised tools. This paper presents a pilot system that will be used in the European FP7 DebugIT project to integrate biomedical data from several healthcare centres across Europe. The system aims at solving complex problems derived from the technical and semantic heterogeneity intrinsic to these kinds of data sources as well as from the absence of reliability of the distributed system.},

    abstract = {XML is suitable for structuring complex data coming from different sources and supported by heterogeneous formats. It allows a flexible formalism capable to represent and store different types of data. Therefore, the importance of integrating XML documents in data warehouses is becoming increasingly high. In this paper, we propose an XML-based methodology, named X-Warehousing, which designs warehouses at a logical level, and populates them with XML documents at a physical level. Our approach is mainly oriented to users analysis objectives expressed according to an XML Schema and merged with XML data sources. The resulted XML Schema represents the logical model of a data warehouse. Whereas, XML documents validated against the analysis objectives populate the physical model of the data warehouse, called the XML cube. {\textcopyright} Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.},
