UMLS concept ID mappig #5

First of all I would like to thank you for sharing this dataset. It's great!

I am facing the following problem:
I have a NER and entity linker that links genes to NCBI GeneID (eg. TP53 has GeneID 7157, see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=tp53), drugs to ChEMBL id (eg. https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chembl/compound_report_card/CHEMBL189707/) and diseases to Disease Ontology ID (http://disease-ontology.org/). I need to link my entities to corresponding UMLS concept IDs in order to evaluate my NER. Disease Ontology has an API that returns CUI for given DOID. Unfortunately, I don't know how to deal with genes and drugs. Please, give a hint if you know how to map NCBI GeneID or ChEMBL id to UMLS concept ID in reliable way.

Thank you for your great work and any help!

I have not mapped from these ontologies, but was able to use the information in the MRCONSO.RRF file (part of the UMLS release) to map between MeSH and UMLS ids.

Old thread, but perhaps this could help:

UMLS contains the HGNC gene dataset, so there is a mapping between CUI and GeneID. If you browse MRCONSO, you'll find the gene names and NCBI IDs and their respective UMLS CUI.

In the paper, it says:

entity descriptions (which in our case is the canonical name, the type, and a list of known aliases andsynonyms)

Is there any examples of entity descriptions to show? I'm not sure how to get the above and what they mean, thanks for the help.

You can have a look at Metathesaurus Browser mentioned in https://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/umls/index.html
N.B. You would need to register first.

Here's an example screenshot:

Explanation:
Canonical Name: Nodule of lung

Aliases:

  • pulmonary nodule
  • lung nodule
    The above two are a subset of the aliases (mentioned under Atoms) for this entity.

Hi,
A very old thread, but I'm struggling to find a solution to a problem of mine and this thread looks very relevant. Please help me.

My question- I need to map some disease names (that I've tagged using a pre-trained tool) to MeSH+OMIM ontology as MeSH doesn't have genetic diseases, so any complete ontology for diseases shall use both MeSh + OMIM.

I have the CUIs corresponding to those diseases & would now like to map the CUI ids to MeSH+OMIM.

What are the possible solutions? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for answering.

I'll need to perform this mapping from cui to mesh+omim for quite a lot of data & need to integrate this into my code pipeline.
Do you have any idea how I could do this?

I tried to download the MRCONSO.RRF file (with a hope to accomplish my task using information from this file) but it requires some sort of license.

MedGen Database may be a manageable solution.
