The fact that the upkeep of such databases has yet to be supported by text mining validates the previously reported observation that the curation of metabolic pathways has received little attention from the biomedical NLP community, compared with that of signalling pathways (33).
Web integration and local area network (LAN) database synchronization can be supported depending upon the database engine used.
The horizontal scope Authorization system for unstructured databases should be supported by multiple hosts via network.
Such databases should be supported by an (international) expert committee (as proposed by Tavtigian et al).
These XMLs provide general information about the database that is, a natural language description of the database and details on its structure, including a thorough description of which fields can be filtered and what relations to other databases are supported.
A Microsoft© SQL Server was chosen as database, but thanks to a database abstraction layer most relational database management systems are supported.
The database server is supported from the national infrastructure project by National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA, Thailand).
The database curation is supported by an experienced team, which includes clinicians, biologists, bioinformaticians, biostatisticians and genetic epidemiologists.
In all, 370 overlapped genes were found, and there were 290 genes that were not included in RGD database, but were supported by literature.
