From the Desk of Editor-in-Chief Vol. 38: COVID-19 (Supplement Issue)

AbstractBiological and biomedical ontologies and terminologies are used to organize and store various domain-specific knowledge to provide standardization of terminology usage and to improve interoperability. The growing number of such ontologies and terminologies and their increasing adoption in clinical, research and healthcare settings call for effective and efficient quality assurance and semantic enrichment techniques of these ontologies and terminologies. In this editorial, we provide an introductory summary of nine articles included in this supplement issue for quality assurance and enrichment of biological and biomedical ontologies and terminologies. The articles cover a range of standards including SNOMED CT, National Cancer Institute Thesaurus, Unified Medical Language System, North American Association of Central Cancer Registries and OBO Foundry Ontologies.

Health policy research aligns with the vision, mission, and strategic goals of the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD). Understanding the effects of a policy change at a local, state or national level that impacts health requires setting up data collection or accessing existing data to evaluate impact at a population health level. The translational work in the current special supplement issue of Ethnicity & Disease is a powerful and essential approach in optimizing scientific inquiry that supports increasing awareness and selected strategies for cultivating the lives of vulnerable and underserved individuals, families, and communities.

Over Time

Abstract Comorbidities are increasingly recognized as crucial components of the heart failure syndrome. Main specific challenges are polypharmacy, poor adherence to treatments, psychological aspects, and the need of monitoring after discharge. The chronic multimorbid patient therefore represents a specific heart failure phenotype that needs an appropriate and continuous management over time. This supplement issue covers the key points of a series of meeting coordinated by the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), that have discussed the issues surrounding the effective monitoring of our ever more complex and multimorbid heart failure patients. Here, we present an overview of the complex issues from a healthcare delivery perspective.
