Dissimilarities in the Logical Modeling of Apparently Similar Concepts in SNOMED CT.
Article in AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Concepts whose terms are of a similar word structure are expected to have similar logical representations. Anecdotal examples from SNOMED CT indicate that this may not always be the case. An investigation into the extent of inconsistent modeling in SNOMED CT hierarchies is carried out. A lexical methodology is used to identify sets of similar concepts. It is applied to one of the most attribute-rich hierarchies, Procedure, from which a random sample of 60 sets is derived. These sets are examined in regard to hierarchical, definitional, attribute, attribute/value, and role-group aspects. Thirty percent of the sample sets were found to have at least one type of modeling inconsistency. Their presence may interfere with the performance of terminology-driven applications. With the use of SNOMED expanding, such inconsistencies may eventually affect clinical care. Due to this, external auditing should be encouraged to identify such issues and complement IHTSDO's efforts.
