 ===== Changes from Vocabulary Version 4.0 ===== ===== Changes from Vocabulary Version 4.0 =====
-The Standardized Vocabularies are undergoing a constant revision and improvement. Therefore, only significant structural changes are listed in the following. +Thank you for visiting ​the wiki! This page has moved to https://github.com/OHDSI/Vocabulary-v5.0/​wiki/​Historical-Versions.
- +
-** Changes to Tables ** +
- +
-^Table^Nature of change^ +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​domain|DOMAIN]]|Newly created reference table for all Domains. Please refer to the [[documentation:​vocabulary:​domains_and_vocabularies|discussion]] of the Domains.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept_class|CONCEPT_CLASS]]|Newly created reference table for all Concept Classes of Concepts. Please refer to the discussion of the individual Vocabularies for detais.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​source_to_concept_map|SOURCE_TO_CONCEPT_MAP]]|No longer used for mapping of source codes to Standard Vocabularies. Instead, source codes have now a representation in the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]] table, and these Source Concepts are mapped to Standard Concepts using records in the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept_relationship|CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP]] table "Maps to" and "​Mapped from". Please refer to the [[documentation:​vocabulary:​mapping|discussion]] of the mapping and the individual Vocabularies for detais.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​cohort_definition|COHORT_DEFINITION]]|Newly created reference table for the definition of Cohorts in the COHORT table. ​This table is not supported with standardized content, but for internal use at each CDM instance.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​attribute_definition|ATTRIBUTE_DEFINITION]]|Newly created reference table for the definition of Cohort Attributes in the COHORT_ATTRIBUTE table. This table is not supported with standardized content, but for internal use at each CDM instance.| +
- +
-** Changes ​to Fields ** +
- +
-^Table^Field^Nature of change^ +
-|[[documentation:cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]] and [[documentation:​cdm:​vocabulary|VOCABULARY]]|vocabulary_id|This is no longer a numerical but a character identifier of length 20The character string refers to the Vocabulary ​in a human readable format for convenience of the analyst during queryingE.g., vocabulary_id 1 became vocabulary "​SNOMED",​ vocabulary_id 2 became "​ICD9CM"​. Please refer to the [[documentation:​vocabulary:​vocabularies|discussion]] of the Vocabularies.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]]|concept_class_id|This used to be a character field called concept_class containing Concept Class as a string. Now, it contains a 20 character identifier referring to the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept_class|CONCEPT_CLASS]] table, similar to how Vocabularies are referred to in the vocabulary_id field. Please refer to the discussion of the individual Vocabularies for details.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]]|domain_id|This is a newly added field for a 20 character identifier referring to the [[documentation:​cdm:​domain|DOMAIN]] table, similar to how Vocabularies are referred to in the vocabulary_id field. Please refer to the [[documentation:​domains_and_vocabularies:​domains|discussion]] of the Domains.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]]|standard_concept|This is a newly added field designating whether the Concept is a Standard Concept ("​S"​),​ a Classification Concept ("​C"​) or a Source Concept (NULL). Please refer to the [[documentation:​vocabulary:​standard_classification_and_source_concepts|discussion]] of how the Concept designation is used in practice.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]]|concept_level|This field used to designate the hierarchical level within a Vocabulary or Domain, and is no longer available. Hierarchical levels only work for strictly stratified hierarchies such as RxNorm or MedDRA, and are no longer supported. Concept Level used to designate non-Standard Concepts, which now is captured in the standard_concept field and explained [[documentation:​vocabulary:​standard_classification_and_source_concepts|here]].| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​vocabulary|VOCABULARY]]|vocabulary_reference|This is a newly added field referring to external documentation of the Vocabulary.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​vocabulary|VOCABULARY]]|vocabulary_version|This is a newly added field capturing the version of the Vocabulary as indicated in the source.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​vocabulary|VOCABULARY]]|vocabulary_concept_id|This is a newly added field referring to the Concept representing the Vocabulary.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept_relationship|CONCEPT_RELATIONSHIP]] and [[documentation:​cdm:​relationship|RELATIONSHIP]]|relationship_id|This is no longer a numerical but a character identifier of length 20. The character string refers to the Relationship in a human readable format for convenience of the analyst during querying. E.g., relationship_id 10 became "​Subsumes",​ relationship_id 353 became "Maps to". Please refer to the discussion of the Vocabularies for details of the Concept Relationships.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​relationship|RELATIONSHIP]]|relationship_concept_id|This is a newly added field referring to the Concept representing the Relationship.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​concept_synonym|CONCEPT_SYNONYM]]|language_concept_id|This is a newly added field referring to the Concept of the language used. Currently, only English is supported in the Standardized Vocabularies.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​drug_strength|DRUG_STRENGTH]]|amount_unit_concept_id|This field used to be called amount_unit containing the unit as a character string. Now, it is a foreign key to the Unit Concept in the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]] table.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​drug_strength|DRUG_STRENGTH]]|numerator_value|This field used to be called enumerator_value.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​drug_strength|DRUG_STRENGTH]]|numerator_unit_concept_id|This field used to be called enumerator_unit containing the unit as a character string. Now, it is a foreign key to the Unit Concept in the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]] table.| +
-|[[documentation:​cdm:​drug_strength|DRUG_STRENGTH]]|denominator_unit_concept_id|This field used to be called denominator_unit containing the unit as a character string. Now, it is a foreign key to the Unit Concept in the [[documentation:​cdm:​concept|CONCEPT]] table.+
