Transformation

The transformation entity is designed to describe the algorithm which transforms the indicators from the input indicator classes to the output.

The transformation = algorithm, indicator-class = data it uses.


Semantics

Name REQUIRED

The full name of the transformation.

Abstract REQUIRED

The summary of the transformation description.

Fill in the short and self-explanatory summary of the transformation.

Definitions

The definitions of abbreviations, terms and concepts utilized within the subsequent documentation.

All of the abbreviations, terms and concepts should be explained here.

Context

In which contexts does the transformation give sense.

Describe all of the contexts (you may also reference them) in which this transformation gives sense (may occur).

Input data REQUIRED

The description of the input data

Input data for the transformation - you may reference them.

Transformation method REQUIRED

The transformation (calculation) method.

Enter the method of transformation. Any nonstandard equations can be put on the image.

Output data REQUIRED

The output of the transformation.

Describe and reference all of the output indicators.

Commentary

Unspecified comment - other relevant information.

Enter important objective information about the transformation if necessary for the understanding. Do not enter your personal comments (use the REVIEW entity instead).

Rationale

Argumentation to support the utilization of this transformation

Enter the argumentation which supports the utilization of this transformation. Use references.

Controversy

Are there any controversies using this transformation?

Enter any controversial information which seriously impedes the utilization of this transformation.

Limits

Fill in if there are any limits limiting the use of this indicator class.

For example if these data can not be utilized to evaluate aborigin population, enter it here.


Metadata

Display name REQUIRED

The name which is used for this transformation when processed by computer.

Test data

The data used to test the transformation.

If we want to test the implementation, you may define test data.


Relations

Author REQUIRED MULTIPLE

The author (or authors) of transformation

You may enter multiple authors.

Cites MULTIPLE

Citation of published work

Is valid in REQUIRED MULTIPLE

Define context in which this transformation may be performed.

The transformation will be applied only in the predefined (base) contexts.

Required input MULTIPLE

The mandatory input for this transformation.

The transformation can have some mandatory and some optional inputs.

Optional input MULTIPLE

The optional input for this transformation.

The transformation can have some mandatory and some optional inputs.

Input contexts MULTIPLE

The input contexts of the transformation.

If the transformation goes behind the context it is valid in, reference the contexts here.

Output REQUIRED MULTIPLE

The output of the transformation


Classifications

MeSH

Medical SubHeadings

Enter the MeSH classification elements.

UMLS

The UMLS concepts.

Enter the UMLS concept list.
