How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article presents a conceptual model for presenting clinical and genetic relationships derived from conclusions based on the results of whole exome sequencing (WES). The model integrates genetic mutations, phenotypic traits, and clinical diagnoses into an ontologically structured system using international medical classifiers such as HGVS [13], OMIM [11], HPO [12], ClinVar [10], and ICD-10. It supports information extraction from text, semantic annotation, and clinical decision-making. The proposed approach has higher semantic detail, improved integration with biomedical resources, and compatibility with NLP and CDSS tasks. The model was implemented in the OWL 2 ontology language using the Protégé 5.6.5 editor and evaluated with SPARQL queries and ontology metrics tools (OOPS!, OntoMetric).
