Mitelman Database of Chromosome Aberrations in Cancer
Searching the Database
The information in the Mitelman Database of Chromosome
Aberrations in Cancer relates chromosomal aberrations to tumor characteristics,
based either on individual cases or associations. All the data have been manually
culled from the literature by Felix Mitelman, Bertil Johansson, and Fredrik Mertens.
CGAP has developed six web search tools to help you analyze the information
within the Mitelman Database:
- The Cases Quick Searcher allows you to
query the individual patient cases using the four major fields: aberration,
breakpoint, morphology, and topography.
- The Cases Full Searcher permits a more
detailed search of the same individual patient cases as above, by including
more cytogenetic field choices and adding search fields for patient
characteristics and references.
- The Molecular Biology
Associations Searcher does not search any of the individual patient cases.
It searches studies pertaining to gene rearrangements as a consequence of cytogenetic aberrations.
- The Clinical
Associations Searcher does not search any of the individual patient cases.
It searches studies pertaining to clinical associations of cytogenetic aberrations
and/or gene rearrangements.
- The Recurrent Chromosome
Aberrations Searcher provides a way to search for structural
and numerical abnormalities that are recurrent, i.e., present
in two or more cases with the same morphology and topography.
- The Reference Searcher queries
only the references themselves, i.e., the references from the individual
cases and the molecular biology and clinical associations.
Database last updated on November 04, 2008
Total number of cases = 55,648
The Mitelman Database is updated quarterly in February, May, August, and November.
