Hello,

Peter we had a discussion quite some time ago about additions and removals that 
would result into a good dictionary. I have a specific example I would ask for 
your help please (or anyone else that has an idea :) )

So STEMI and NSTEMI are correctly annotated but "Code" and "Coding Scheme" are 
null... when that happens in my tests it is usually because of a badly formed 
term interpretation which is to be discarded anyway. I have found similar cases 
mentioned as "ghost" terms in the UMLS documentation; in this case, however, 
they are valid interpretations and quite important to my tests because I am 
working on heart attack and cardiac disease cohorts.

I tried associating with the appropriate code by adding the following inserts 
but it did not work ...

INSERT INTO UPPER VALUES(1276061,'','NSTEMI','',31,1)
INSERT INTO UPPER VALUES(1303258,'','STEMI','',31,1)

Any ideas please?

Many thanks in advance,

Kind Regards,
