Special MTH_* forms are algorithmically generated for
atoms with the termtypes listed above as follows: If the STR contains the markup syntax SNOMEDCT uses to indicate superscripts ("^sup^") and/or subscripts (">sub<"), two MTH_* forms are generated: 1. One in which the markup syntax is removed, e.g., "CO>2<" becomes "CO2" 2. One in which the markup syntax is converted to an xml-style syntax using "<sup> for superscripts and "<sub>" for subscripts, e.g., "CO>2<" becomes "CO<sub>2</sub>". This data is added during Metathesaurus source processing |
SB | Subset For any conceptId that occurs as a refsetId in any refSet, its PT is duplicated as an SB atom. CODE, SCUI = refsetId SAUI = Not populated STR = Description.term SUPPRESSIBLE = N |
XM | Cross Mapping Set One XM (cross Mapping set) atom is generated for each refsetId in ExtendedMap as follows: CODE, SCUI = refsetId SAUI = Not populated STR = "SNOMEDCT_US_yyyy_mm_dd to <VSAB> Mappings" SUPPRESSIBLE = N |
