## About
Providing clinical decision support requires some formal way of representing clinical knowledge and complex algorithms for sophisticated inference. ckblib is a java library to facilitate knowledge extraction, annotation and representation as a Neo4J graph. These knowledge graphs can be visualized in a semantically enriched way that we call ClinGraph (see above). ckblib consists of four modules:
* The 'library' module wraps the NCBI's E-Utils API for published article abstracts.
* The 'qtakes' module provides a programmable interface to [quick-ctakes](https://github.com/dermatologist/quick-ctakes) or the quarkus based apache ctakes, a fast clinical text annotation engine.
* The 'umls' module is a wrapper for UMLS REST API managing the TGT and ST tokens using the reactive WebClient. See [RestTicketServiceTest.java](https://github.com/dermatologist/ckblib/blob/develop/umls/src/test/java/com/canehealth/ckblib/umls/service/RestTicketServiceTest.java) for example use. A list of available [UMLS REST APIs are here.](https://documentation.uts.nlm.nih.gov/rest/home.html). My Javascript library for similar purpose [(umlsjs) is here.](https://github.com/dermatologist/umlsjs)
* Finally, the graph module provides the Neo4J models, repositories and services for abstracting as a knowledge graph.
## How to use
* [Read how to install mvn packages from GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/guides/configuring-apache-maven-for-use-with-github-packages#installing-a-package)
* **This will be available on GitHub packages soon. In the mean time 'mvn clean install' locally**
* Include dependencies in pom.xml
* See an application [](https://gulfdoctor.net) using ckblib: [GulfDoctor](https://gulfdoctor.net)
