I'm guessing you are referring to values of _ref_ontologyConceptArr? For DiseaseDisorderMention (and others besides Medication) those are links to UmlsConcept annotations. The value of _ref_ontologyConceptArr leads to a list (FSArray) of values that lead to UmlsConcept.

I have a doubt regarding the *textsem:DiseaseDisorderMention*. I cannot understand the *@ontologyConceptArr*(an array of numbers). Where do these numbers map to and how can I understand their meaning? For example, the term "seasonal allergies" gives me "5280 5266 5329 5287 5301 5315 5273 5294 5322 5308" Thank you Arohi Kumar
