Development of an open-source software for isomer enumeration.

ABSTRACT: This article documents enu, a freely-downloadable, open-source and stand-alone program written in C++ for the enumeration of the constitutional isomers and stereoisomers of a molecular formula. The program relies on graph theory to enumerate all the constitutional isomers of a given formula on the basis of their canonical adjacency matrix. The stereoisomers of a given constitutional isomer are enumerated as well, on the basis of the automorphism group of this matrix. The isomer list is then reported in the form of canonical SMILES strings within files in XML format. The specification of the molecule family of interest is very flexible and the code is optimized for computational efficiency. The algorithms and implementations underlying enu are described, and simple illustrative applications are presented. The enu code is freely available on GitHub at https://github.com/csms-ethz/CombiFF .

Project description:BackgroundElectronic medical records, including pathology reports, are often used for research purposes. Currently, there are few programs freely available to remove identifiers while leaving the remainder of the pathology report text intact. Our goal was to produce an open source, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant, deidentification tool tailored for pathology reports. We designed a three-step process for removing potential identifiers. The first step is to look for identifiers known to be associated with the patient, such as name, medical record number, pathology accession number, etc. Next, a series of pattern matches look for predictable patterns likely to represent identifying data; such as dates, accession numbers and addresses as well as patient, institution and physician names. Finally, individual words are compared with a database of proper names and geographic locations. Pathology reports from three institutions were used to design and test the algorithms. The software was improved iteratively on training sets until it exhibited good performance. 1800 new pathology reports were then processed. Each report was reviewed manually before and after deidentification to catalog all identifiers and note those that were not removed.Results1254 (69.7 %) of 1800 pathology reports contained identifiers in the body of the report. 3439 (98.3%) of 3499 unique identifiers in the test set were removed. Only 19 HIPAA-specified identifiers (mainly consult accession numbers and misspelled names) were missed. Of 41 non-HIPAA identifiers missed, the majority were partial institutional addresses and ages. Outside consultation case reports typically contain numerous identifiers and were the most challenging to deidentify comprehensively. There was variation in performance among reports from the three institutions, highlighting the need for site-specific customization, which is easily accomplished with our tool.ConclusionWe have demonstrated that it is possible to create an open-source deidentification program which performs well on free-text pathology reports.
