GWAS to biomedical concept

Created: 2013-04-15 12:35:44      Last updated: 2014-07-14 14:17:16

Genome-Wide Association studies (GWAS) with metabolomic phenotypes yield several statistically significant SNP-metabolite associations. To understand the biological basis of the association, scientists typically dwell on identifying genes in the vicinity of the SNP and the possible pathways that the gene participates in. The information needed to arrive at an understanding of the mechanistic basis of the association requires integration of disparate data sources. The purpose of this workflow is to take the GWAS output consisting of SNP-metabolite associations and return genes present in the vicinity of the SNP ( for example, ± 100 kb of the snp), and the ranked biomedical concepts mined from the PubMed database relevant to these genes. The user is provided with the choice of setting the flanking width to interrogate around the SNP, the biomedical concept set to rank against the genes, the number of ranked concepts to return, the number of explaining concepts to return, the number of co-occurring documents to return, the type of gene database identifier, and the SNP identifier.

Purpose:

Currently, this workflow takes one SNP and a concept set as input, calculates the matching score between these, finds co-occuring documents between the query concept and the match concept, finds the concept that contributes the most to the match, and the documents that support this finding.

Workflow Explain concept scores (7)

Thumb
Purpose of workflow: This workflow takes two concept ids as input and returns the top ranking "B" concepts according to Swanson's ABC model of discovery, where the relationships AB and BC are known and reported in the literature, and the implicit relationship AC is a putative new discovery. It might also be the case that AC is already known. In that case AC does not represent a new discovery but will still be returned (see workflow example values). The B concepts are returned sorted on the pe...
