Bioinformatics. 2005 Aug 15;21(16):3443-4. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bti557. Epub 2005 Jun 28.

Abstract

A database application has been developed for phenotype data management employing the Entity-Attribute-Value (EAV) model. By applying the EAV model, this application allows users to manage arbitrary phenotypes and customize data entry forms; therefore, it is suitable for different and multi-center projects.
