Family-oriented cardiac risk estimator: a Java web-based applet.

We developed a Java applet that calculates four different estimates of a person's 10-year risk for heart attack: (1) Estimate based on Framingham equation (2) Framingham equation estimate modified by C-reactive protein (CRP) level (3) Framingham estimate modified by family history of heart disease in parents or siblings (4) Framingham estimate modified by both CRP and family heart disease history. This web-based, family-oriented cardiac risk estimator uniquely considers family history and CRP while estimating risk.

Structuring healthcare knowledge bases: an analysis of explicit and implicit structures in Arden Syntax and an XML schema representation of Arden Syntax.

The Arden Syntax for Medical Logic Modules (MLMs) is an ANSI and ISO recognized standard language for representing clinical knowledge bases. We analyzed the explicit and implicit structures in Arden Syntax MLMs and developed an information model represented as an XML schema. While the explicit structures were easily represented as XML, implicit structures require further explicit definition. In any future representation format, explicit structuring must be balanced with expressiveness and usability.
