Developing a Medical Ontology for Diabetes Treatment
A great wave of diabetes is sweeping the world and it does not exclude continent, country or society and this has led international organizations such as the World Health Organization to sound the alarm after the high rates of deaths from complications of this epidemic. In this regard,
the University Diabetes Center (UDC) was established in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to provide medical care for people with diabetes among other medical issues. As part of UDC, an ontology center has been constructed to explain the domain of the UDC using Protégé. The discussion
herein will center on how emerging diabetes centers can benefit from the UDC experiment in diabetes treatment.
