70 * **Common Data Elements (CDEs)**
71
72 A set of standard variables defined by clinical experts and data scientists, which would be used by researchers to perform analysis on specific medical conditions at the federation level. In the MIP context, we use the term CDEs to refer to the standardised federated datamodels only.
73
74 * **Data Element**
75
76 In metadata, the term data element is an atomic unit of data that has precise meaning or precise semantics.
77
78 * **Datamodel (Metadata)**
79
80 A Datamodel (Metadata) describes the structure of database variables found in specific extracts of a hospital database, including descriptive metadata, structural metadata, administrative metadata, reference metadata and statistical metadata.
81
82 * **Database Variables**
83
84 A variable or scalar is a storage address (identified by an index or address) paired with an associated symbolic name, which contains some known or unknown quantity of information referred to as a value.
85
86 * **Electronic Health Records (EHR)**
87
88 Health information and clinical records registered per each patient per visit in the hospital's database (Oracle, SQL, or any other database system) and usually transferred in db or CSV format. EHRs usually contain different levels of data; we might define them in this context as spaces, domain, and sub-domain. For example, a space might include demographics, social status, or patient's medical history as different data domains. On the other hand, EHR contain other data spaces related to the specific medical condition such as Dementia or Epilepsy where each space includes specific domain and sub-domain, such as medical assessments and tests, diagnoses, treatment, and operations, etc.
89
90 * **Medical Conditions**
91
92 Diseases are often known to be medical conditions that are associated with specific symptoms and signs.
