OGMS includes very general terms that are used across medical disciplines, including: ''disease'', ''disorder'', ''disease course'', ''diagnosis'', ''patient'', and ''healthcare provider''. OGMS uses the Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as an upper-level ontology. The scope of OGMS is restricted to humans, but many terms can be applied to a variety of organisms. OGMS provides a formal theory of disease that can be further elaborated by specific disease ontologies. This theory is implemented using OWL-DL and OBO Relation Ontology relations and is available in OWL and OBO formats. OGMS is based on the papers Toward an Ontological Treatment of Disease and Diagnosis and On Carcinomas and Other Pathological Entities. The ontology attempts to address some of the issues raised at the Workshop on Ontology of Diseases (Dallas, TX) and the Signs, Symptoms, and Findings Workshop(Milan, Italy). OGMS was formerly called the clinical phenotype ontology. Terms from OGMS hang from the Basic Formal Ontology.' download_obo: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ogms.obo download_owl: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/ogms.owl example: '0000031' homepage: https://github.com/OGMS/ogms license: CC-BY-4.0 mappings: aberowl: OGMS bartoc: '216' biocontext: OGMS bioportal: OGMS fairsharing: FAIRsharing.rvz0m9 obofoundry: ogms ols: ogms ontobee: OGMS name: Ontology for General Medical Science pattern: ^\d{7}$ preferred_prefix: OGMS prefix: ogms providers: [] publications: - pubmed: '25991121' title: Biomarkers in the Ontology for General Medical Science - doi: 10.1186/2041-1480-4-42 pmc: PMC4028878 pubmed: '24314207' title: The neurological disease ontology. year: 2013 repository: https://github.com/OGMS/ogms synonyms: - ogms/OMRE uri_format: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/OGMS_$1 version: '2021-08-19'
