The [http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/healthtopics.html main index page] (Level1 index), lists five major groupings of topics. Below each of these is a collection of links to Level2 index pages:
*Body Location/Systems
**Blood, Heart and Circulation
**Bones, Joints and Muscles
**Brain and Nerves
**Digestive System
**Ear, Nose and Throat
**Endocrine System
**Eyes and Vision
**Immune System
**Kidneys and Urinary System

**Female Reproductive System
**Male Reproductive System

*Disorders and Conditions
**Cancers
**Genetics/Birth Defects
**Infections
**Injuries and Wounds
**Mental Health and Behavior
**Metabolic Problems
**Poisoning, Toxicology, Environmental Health
**Pregnancy and Reproduction
**Substance Abuse Problems

*Diagnosis and Therapy
**Complementary and Alternative Therapies

*Health and Wellness
**Fitness and Exercise
**Food and Nutrition
**Health System
**Personal Health Issues
**Safety Issues
**Sexual Health Issues
**Social/Family Issues
**Wellness and Lifestyle

From the Level2 index pages there are links to actual content pages (Level3 "leaves"). Any individual health topic (leaf) may be linked from multiple Level2 index pages.

It may also be useful to reproduce the [http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/all_healthtopics.html "List of All Health Topics"] page and possibly the alphabetical sub-section linking to that page, but it is not clear how to do this easily when alphavetical ordering will change with translation into new languages.

===Design Considerations===

1) The topic areas listed here are taken directly from the MedLinePlus page and will require some modification to reflect the different prioritization of certain health topics between U.S. health priorities and a less-developed nation's health priorities. For example, "Transplantation and Donation" may not merit linclusion at Level1 where a topic such as Clean Water and Sanitation should probasbly have it's own listing at Level1 in many OLPC target countries, distinct from the "Poisoning, Toxicology, Environmental Health" index page.


=== [[Health portal/Step5|Step 5]] ===
This bundle will be designed for use use in the absence of an active internet connection, and so a variety of modifications will be required to allow smooth navigation while retaining teh capability of using this content bundle's pages as a launching point for further exploration of health topics via the WWW. One idea is to include an "exit" page, that can be locally modified with links to suitable health resources (e.g. local Ministry of Health, PAHO, WHO, etc.).
After mechanics of new structure design and conversion of existing materials is worked out, a review of suitablility of individual topic pages can be performed. One advantage of waiting until after an initial version of the XO Health Portal is produced is to model the local modification of this content bundle and develop documentation of how to perform modification and upkeep on such a bundle.


Dynamic HTML-like methods to achieve equivalent of ASP.NET 2.0 "master page" function. Possibly using xulrunner or XSL/XSLT. CSS will only get so far.

XO Health Portal

The concept of the XO Health Portal is to build a content bundle using (relatively) simple HTML documents containing high-quality basic health information. These "leaf" topic pages are to be linked from a series of index pages. The design (and the initial starting content) is going to be modeled on the MedLinePlus Health Topics portal from the National Library of Medicine (NLM) which is part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH).

XO Health portal development process

These pages will focus on the adaptation of MedLinePlus into the initial build of the XO Health portal bundle. A more generalized treatment content workflow concepts can be found on the Content_workflow page.

Step 1

Identifying the content source.

Step 2

Downloading raw materials.

Step 3a

Analyzing structure of the MedLinePlus site.

Step 3b

Analyzing structure of an individual MedLinePlus Health Topic page.

Step 4

Re-factoring the structure of both site and page to be better suited for internationalization and localization.

layout design ideas

Step 5

After mechanics of new structure design and conversion of existing materials is worked out, a review of suitablility of individual topic pages can be performed. One advantage of waiting until after an initial version of the XO Health Portal is produced is to model the local modification of this content bundle and develop documentation of how to perform modification and upkeep on such a bundle.
