CARRE GETS ‘EXCELLENT’ RATE IN FINAL ASSESSMENT
An arbitrary number of SPARQL queries can be executed for exploiting the risk factors associations captured within CARRE. CARRE’s RESTFul API component has implemented a number of representative methods that allow developers with very little knowledge of the underlying scheme to efficiently make use of the repository’s data. These methods are presented below:
- instances – This method queries CARRE’s repository for all instances of a certain Class. It may take as input one of the pre-defined Classes: observable, clinical_observable, personal_observable, risk_element, biomedical_risk_element, behavioural_risk_element, genetic_risk_element, demographic_risk_element, risk_factor, risk_evidence, citation.
- riskEvidencePublications – This method takes as input the IRI of a CARRE risk evidence and returns all publications that are used to describe it. The available IRIs can be found using the previous method (/instances).
- PUBMedPublication – This method takes as input a PUBMed’s publication unique identifier and implements a remote query to linkedlifedata sparql endpoint26 to fetch all metadata concerning a PUBMed publication.
- UMLsCUI – Similarly to the previous method, this method takes as input a UMLs Concept Unique Identifier and connects to linkedlifedata endpoint to fetch all metadata of the UMLs entry.
