Just to clarify the cases I encountered were not valid conceptually but appeared to be valid , i.e. had cui, tui and SNOMED code. I used today as an example to show exactly that "conceptual" issue but it has been many months since the last time I encountered this so I don't have any proper examples to list at the moment.

Hi Peter, Yes I have (before I started using the cased format) and it was only medication indeed-- however it was drugs that should not be annotated as such in the first place , e.g. today as an antibiotic which led me to think it may have had something to do with broken links, even residuals from efforts to "fix" certain entries perhaps? Our cohort was for heart attack so not a very broad range of meds were present in the letters; perhaps I did not encounter "valid" cases just out of luck because of the specific cohort...?

Has anyone seen an issue where a dictionary is created from UMLS sources where there is no entry in PREFTERM for a valid CUI that is present in TUI, CUI_TERMS, and SNOMEDCT_US?. It seems to be happening in certain medication mentions where there is a base drug instance and then various forms. It could be that one of the form descriptions is obsolete, but that wouldn't explain why it was only half-present in the resulting dictionary. for instance clobetasol CUI 8992 has an entry in every table clobetasol emollient CUI 4520933 has all information in every table clobetasol topical CUI 3207574 but is missing only in PREFTERM cui_term '3207574','0','2','clobetasol topical','clobetasol' '3207574','0','8','clobetasol - containing product in cutaneous dose form','clobetasol' Tui '3207574','200' Snomed '3207574','771278006' Prefterm Blank.
