Ontology-Based and Architecture-Based Method for the Development of Interoperable Care Systems for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Processes like the care of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients require support by information systems considering the heterogeneity of the actors from different domains involved, enabling harmonization and integration of their specific methodologies and knowledge representation approaches towards interdisciplinary cooperation. Currently, the development of systems starts from the simplified information world, ignoring the aforementioned heterogeneity and specificity of real-world processes. This paper aims to demonstrate the feasibility of developing an adaptive, interoperable and intelligent system that supports the major aspects of type 2 diabetes mellitus care based on the Generic Component Model as formal methodology for modelling universal systems.

Specializing architectures for the type 2 diabetes mellitus care use cases with a focus on process management.

The development of software supporting inter-disciplinary systems like the type 2 diabetes mellitus care requires the deployment of methodologies designed for this type of interoperability. The GCM framework allows the architectural description of such systems and the development of software solutions based on it. A first step of the GCM methodology is the definition of a generic architecture, followed by its specialization for specific use cases.

Hypoxia downregulates Ku70/80 expression in cervical carcinoma tumors.

Hypoxia may inhibits the NHEJ DNA repair through downregulating Ku70/80 expression and combined with an increased angiogenesis and altered p53 expression would be responsible for tumor progression in cervical carcinoma.
