Comment (by ngraham):

 One thing we ran in to when implementing at KUMC is that there seem to be
 terms that don't have parents.  I don't know that i2b2 cares (other than I
 think the terms won't show up) but some our ETL code that counts
 patients/facts makes sure that every term has parents.  We filled in the
 missing parents for our production release.

 An example path that I think is an orphan:
 {{{
 \i2b2\Laboratory Tests\Microbiology\Microorganism\Bacteria\Yersinia
 sp\Yersinia pestis\Yersinia pestis Ab\Yersinia pestis Ab | Bld-Ser-Plas\Y
 pestis AbTitr Ser EIA\
 }}}

 I found 63 missing parents using attachment:missing_parents.py run against
 the .dsv from comment:34.  Maybe this isn't something that needs
 addressed, but I wanted to document what we found in case someone else
 runs in to it.

 Also, it seems that the CDT file linked in comment:34 only has 48,943 rows
 rather than the 71,000 noted in comment:34.  Maybe I'm looking at the
 wrong file?
 {{{
 wc -l GPC_LOINC_HIERARCHY.dsv
 48943 GPC_LOINC_HIERARCHY.dsv
 ...
 md5sum ./GPC_LOINC_HIERARCHY.dsv
 9d07adf37a04efe319324a36dcc48e12 *./GPC_LOINC_HIERARCHY.dsv
 }}}
