OBJECTIVES To evaluate the suitability of the ATC/DDD Index (Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification System/Defined Daily Dose) for analyzing prescription lists in the U.S. METHODS We mapped RxNorm clinical drugs to ATC. We used this mapping to classify a large set of prescription drugs with ATC and compared the prescribed daily dose to the defined daily dose (DDD) in ATC. RESU...

MOTIVATION Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system, widely applied in almost all drug utilization studies, is currently the most widely recognized classification system for drugs. Currently, new drug entries are added into the system only on users' requests, which leads to seriously incomplete drug coverage of the system, and bioinformatics prediction is helpful during this ...

Motivation: Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system, widely applied in almost all drug utilization studies, is currently the most widely recognized classification system for drugs. Currently, new drug entries are added into the system only on users’ requests, which leads to seriously incomplete drug coverage of the system, and bioinformatics prediction is helpful during this...

in this study, the effective parameters on the inelastic response of asymmetric buildings is evaluated for an ensemble of real iranian earthquake records by considering soil-structure interaction. then, the design eccentricity obtained from the inelastic dynamic soil-structure analysis is compared with the design eccentricity of seisimic codes of iran, atc-3, new zeland, canada, mexico, austral...

ATC classification is a WHO international classification used to classify drugs. The aim of this paper is to evaluate two lexical methods in English and in French to map ATC to UMLS. Several applications have been impemented to illustrate the use of the ATC mapping in English and French: (a) MeSH translation in Norwegian, (b) Drug Information Portal, and (c) ATC to PubMed tool. Two lexical meth...

(RCS) frames which are systems that dwell of concrete columns and steel beams , by optimizing the act of compressive strength of concrete and bending strength of steel due to not only a decrease in building weight in comparison to concrete structures but also having a better action in long spans frames . In this paper for analysis RCS behavior, a category of nonlinear Push Over analyses were ...

Connectivity map data and associated methodologies have become a valuable tool in understanding drug mechanism of action (MOA) and discovering new indications for drugs. However, few systematic evaluations have been done to assess the accuracy of these methodologies. One of the difficulties has been the lack of benchmarking data sets. Iskar et al. (PLoS. Comput. Biol. 6, 2010) predicted the Ana...

BACKGROUND Increasingly, automated methods are being used to code free-text medication data, but evidence on the validity of these methods is limited. AIM To examine the accuracy of automated coding of previously keyed in free-text medication data compared with manual coding of original handwritten free-text responses (the 'gold standard'). METHODS A random sample of 500 participants (475 w...
