There's a useful ORO tester at: http://jakarta.apache.org/oro/demo.html
This shows that SERVER_(?!ItemTypes)_MDID does not match SERVER_Foobar_MDID Why is that? Remember that (?!xxx) is a zero-width assertion, so it does not consume any characters. It does match SERVER__MDID (two _ in a row) So you can try dropping the _MDID from the pattern. If this creates false positives, then you will need to add something like \w+ or [^_]+ to consume the characters.
