Hi All
I've been working on creating a dictionary for the 2023AA UMLS, specifically
incorporating SNOMED and RxNorm. However, I've encountered two main challenges
that I'm hoping to get assistance with:
1. Combining SNOMED and RxNorm in Dictionary Creation: To initiate the
process, I extracted data from umls-2023AA-full and RxNorm_full. After
utilizing NLM Metamorphosys to install UMLS, the conversion of SNOMED from
umls-2023AA-full into RRF files was successfully accomplished. However, when I
proceeded to employ cTAKES Dictionary Creator for transforming UMLS SNOMED and
RxNorm into a singular dictionary, I encountered an issue. The challenge lies
in the fact that I can only select one "UMLS Installation" source, limiting me
to either SNOMED or RxNorm. Is there a viable solution that would enable me to
effectively incorporate both SNOMED and RxNorm into the dictionary generation
process?
2. Error Message During Dictionary Build: Following the selection of the NLM
Metamorphosys output folder as the "UMLS Installation" source and checking all
relevant boxes for Vocabulary and Semantic Type, I clicked on "Build
Dictionary". Unfortunately, this action resulted in an error message being
displayed. I'm seeking guidance on how to address and resolve this error in
order to successfully complete the dictionary creation process.
Error Message: Dictionary ctakesdictionary could not be built in F:\cTAKESLog
Message: user lacks privilege or object not found: MED in statement [insert
into MED-RT (CUI,MED-RT) values (?,?)]
I truly appreciate any assistance that can be provided in overcoming these
challenges.
Thank you very much.
