Background: Dementia is becoming a significant public health concern, affecting approximately 130,000 individuals in Austria, whereby nearly 40% of the cases are attributed to modifiable risk factors. Multidomain lifestyle interventions have thereby demonstrated significant effects in reducing the risk of dementia.
Objectives: The goal was to define an interoperability framework to conduct standardized monitoring in clinical trials for enhancing dementia risk mitigation. In addition, the identified standards should be integrated into the components of the project.
Methods: A step-by-step approach was used, where initially data collection, aggregation and harmonization was carried out with retrospective data from various clinical centers. Afterwards, the interoperability framework was defined including the prospective data that is gathered during a clinical trial.
Results: A guideline for integrating healthcare standards was developed and incorporated into the technical components for the clinical trial.
Conclusion: The interoperability framework was designed in a scalable way and will be regularly updated for future needs.

The scientific community has long benefited from the opportunities provided by data reuse. Recognizing the need to identify the challenges and bottlenecks to reuse in the agricultural research community and propose solutions for them, the data reuse working group was started within the AgBioData consortium framework. Here, we identify the limitations of data standards, metadata deficiencies, data interoperability, data ownership, data availability, user skill level, resource availability, and equity issues, with a specific focus on agricultural genomics research.

Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) generate substantial data, often stored in image or PDF formats. Remote monitoring, now an integral component of patient care, places considerable administrative burdens on clinicians and staff, in large part due to the challenge of integrating these data seamlessly into electronic health records. Since 2006, the Heart Rhythm Society, in collaboration with the CIED industry, has led an initiative to establish a unified standard nomenclature.

The Homo sapiens Chromosomal Location Ontology (HSCLO) is designed to facilitate the integration of human genomic features into biomedical knowledge graphs from releases GRCh37 and GRCh38 at multiple resolutions. HSCLO comprises two distinct versions, HSCLO37 and HSCLO38, each tailored to its respective human genome release. This ontology supports the efficient integration and analysis of human genomic data across scales ranging from entire chromosomes to individual base pairs, thereby enhancing data retrieval and interoperability within large-scale biomedical datasets.

Data-driven models of neurons and circuits are important for understanding how the properties of membrane conductances, synapses, dendrites, and the anatomical connectivity between neurons generate the complex dynamical behaviors of brain circuits in health and disease. However, the inherent complexity of these biological processes makes the construction and reuse of biologically detailed models challenging. A wide range of tools have been developed to aid their construction and simulation, but differences in design and internal representation act as technical barriers to those who wish to use data-driven models in their research workflows.

Background: Digital therapeutics (DTx) are software-based interventions that aim to prevent or treat especially non-communicable diseases. Currently, no framework for reimbursement of DTx exists in Austria. The aim of this study was to gather a comprehensive perspective on regulatory considerations of Austrian stakeholders with regard to reimbursement of DTx and to outline strategies for establishing a national reimbursement framework.
