Introduction
Phenotype: observable characteristics of an organism (anatomy, physiology, behavior)
Phenotyping is crucial to understanding how genetic variation relates to clinical manifestations Precise phenotyping is required for the study of rare
syndromes Poor interoperability of phenotypic data
Across clinical data repositories Between research and clinical data repositories

Issues with phenotypesin standard terminologies
Limited coverage Post-coordination supports expansion
Limited granularity Coarse phenotyping is sufficient for some purposes
Limited interoperability Xrefs, mappings Different definitions / representations
Implicit context e.g., congenitality, normality

Post-coordination in action
With 12 post-coordination templates, we generated post-coordinated mappings to SNOMED CT for 1617 HPO concepts
This is in complement to the 3081 HPO concepts for which there is a pre-coordinated mapping to SNOMED CT
Template-based mappings are usually of high quality

Issues with representation
Representations are not interoperable Different sets of genus/differentiai
Entity/quality (HPO [PATO]) Anatomy/Morphology/Occurrence (SNOMEDCT)
But rules based on the DL definitions could form the basis for a new mapping approach Entity → Anatomy [or Physiology or Behavior] Quality → Morphology [or …]

Context for Renal hypoplasia
Additional context in each representation Abnormal
HPO: inherited from the definition of hypoplastic SNOMED CT: implied from being under disorder
Congenital SNOMED CT: part of the definition of renal hypoplasia
(synonym for congenital hypoplasia of kidney) HPO: implied from usage (?)

Other context issues
Ductus arteriosus (anatomical structure) Syn. for Patent ductus arteriosus (condition) Ductus arteriosus is a normal anatomical structure in
the fetus Its persistence after birth is abnormal

Generalization issuesPhenotypes across diseases
Across diseases (common/general) Renal hypoplasia – always congenital Absent Achilles reflex – Congenital? Abnormal?
Manifestation of peripheral neuropathy– Acquired (e.g., diabetic neuropathy)– Congenital (e.g., Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of
Charlevoix-Saguenay) May be normal after 80

Generalization issuesPhenotypes across species
Across species Enlarged cerebellum vs. large cerebellum
Enlarged = larger than normal– In reference to a given population– Species-specific
Large = large
