= i2b2 Create an Ontology The procedure to create the tables for a new ontology. 1. Create the ontology table in the Meta Database [1] Name of the ontology, e.g. 'ONYX' {{{#!sql CREATE TABLE {Ontology Name from [1]} ( "C_HLEVEL" INT NOT NULL, "C_FULLNAME" VARCHAR(700) NOT NULL, "C_NAME" VARCHAR(2000) NOT NULL, "C_SYNONYM_CD" CHAR(1) NOT NULL, "C_VISUALATTRIBUTES" CHAR(3) NOT NULL, "C_TOTALNUM" INT NULL, "C_BASECODE" VARCHAR(50) NULL, "C_METADATAXML" TEXT NULL, "C_FACTTABLECOLUMN" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, "C_TABLENAME" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, "C_COLUMNNAME" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, "C_COLUMNDATATYPE" VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, "C_OPERATOR" VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, "C_DIMCODE" VARCHAR(700) NOT NULL, "C_COMMENT" TEXT NULL, "C_TOOLTIP" VARCHAR(900) NULL, "UPDATE_DATE" DATETIME NOT NULL, "DOWNLOAD_DATE" DATETIME NULL, "IMPORT_DATE" DATETIME NULL, "SOURCESYSTEM_CD" VARCHAR(50) NULL, "VALUETYPE_CD" VARCHAR(50) NULL ) ; }}} 2. Create a Scheme A scheme is the prefix for a concept code. Not exactly sure what it is used for, but hey ho. You create one like this: [2] Scheme name, e.g. 'CBO' [3] Descriptive name for ontology, e.g. 'Onyx Ontology' {{{#!sql INSERT INTO SCHEMES(C_KEY, C_NAME, C_DESCRIPTION) VALUES('{Scheme name from [2]}:', '{Scheme name from [2]}', '{Descriptive name for ontology from [3]}'); }}} 3. Tell i2b2 about the new ontology [4] Base path for ontology, e.g. '\onyx\' {{{#!sql INSERT INTO TABLE_ACCESS(C_TABLE_CD, C_TABLE_NAME, C_HLEVEL, C_FULLNAME, C_NAME, C_SYNONYM_CD, C_VISUALATTRIBUTES, C_TOTALNUM, C_BASECODE, C_METADATAXML, C_FACTTABLECOLUMN, C_DIMTABLENAME, C_COLUMNNAME, C_COLUMNDATATYPE, C_OPERATOR, C_DIMCODE, C_COMMENT, C_TOOLTIP, C_ENTRY_DATE, C_CHANGE_DATE, C_STATUS_CD, C_PROTECTED_ACCESS, VALUETYPE_CD) VALUES('{Ontology Name from [1]}', '{Ontology Name from [1]}', 0, '{Base path for ontology [4]}', '{Descriptive name for ontology [3]}', 'N', 'CA', NULL, NULL, NULL, 'concept_cd', 'concept_dimension', 'concept_path', 'T', 'LIKE', '{Base path for ontology [4]}', NULL, '{Descriptive name for ontology [3]}', NULL, NULL, NULL, 'N', NULL); }}} 4. Create ontology hierarchy and Concept codes This is beyond the scope of this page. In order to stop the UI from giving an error when you click on the root note, you can create the root node in the ontology table. {{{#!sql INSERT INTO {Ontology Name from [1]} ([C_HLEVEL] ,[C_FULLNAME] ,[C_NAME] ,[C_SYNONYM_CD] ,[C_VISUALATTRIBUTES] ,[C_TOTALNUM] ,[C_BASECODE] ,[C_METADATAXML] ,[C_FACTTABLECOLUMN] ,[C_TABLENAME] ,[C_COLUMNNAME] ,[C_COLUMNDATATYPE] ,[C_OPERATOR] ,[C_DIMCODE] ,[C_COMMENT] ,[C_TOOLTIP] ,[UPDATE_DATE] ,[DOWNLOAD_DATE] ,[IMPORT_DATE] ,[SOURCESYSTEM_CD] ,[VALUETYPE_CD]) VALUES (0 ,'{Base path for ontology [4]}' ,'{Descriptive name for ontology [3]}' ,'N' ,'CA' ,NULL ,NULL ,NULL ,'concept_cd' ,'concept_dimension' ,'concept_path' ,'N' ,'LIKE' ,'{Base path for ontology [4]}' ,NULL ,'{Descriptive name for ontology [3]}' ,GETDATE() ,NULL ,NULL ,'{A suitable source perhaps Ontology description from [3]}' ,NULL) GO }}} Or run this script - Edit the parameters first {{{#!sql DECLARE @OntologyName VARCHAR(50), -- The name of the ontology, e.g. 'Onyx' @Prefix VARCHAR(10), -- The prefic for the concept code, e.g. 'ONX' @OntologyDescription VARCHAR(100), -- A nice description, e.g. 'BRICCS Onyx Questionnaire' @OntologyBaseNode VARCHAR(50), -- The name of the base node of the tree within i2b2, e.g. 'Onyx' @SourceSystem VARCHAR(50), -- The system from where the data came, e.g. 'BRICCS Onyx' @MetaDatabaseName VARCHAR(50), -- The name of the Meta Database in which to create the Ontology, e.g. 'i2b2_b1_metadata' @DataDatabaseName VARCHAR(50) -- The name of the Data Database in which to create the Ontology, e.g. 'i2b2_b1_data' SET @OntologyName = 'TestCiviCRM' -- Must not contain spaces SET @Prefix = 'TestGenCV' SET @OntologyDescription = 'TestGenvasc Study Details from CiviCRM' SET @OntologyBaseNode = 'TestCiviCRM' SET @SourceSystem = 'TestGenvasc CiviCRM' SET @MetaDatabaseName = 'i2b2_b1_metadata' SET @DataDatabaseName = 'i2b2_b1_data' ---------------------------------------------------------------- -------------- T H E A C T U A L S C R I P T --------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- CREATE ONTOLOGY TABLE -- DECLARE @TCreateOntologyTable VARCHAR(MAX) SET @TCreateOntologyTable = ' USE ' + @MetaDatabaseName + ';
