Thank you Phillip!
To get this to work, I did remap to concept_cd, concept_dimension just like our 
current I2B2.

The nice thing about SHRINE is that it doesn't require the same i2b2 
terminology/dimension at each site.  So if we're using the SCILHS ontology in 
SHRINE,  I can modify my local terminology to hit my concept dimension or 
custom "Ethnicity_cd" of the patient dimension, and the counts that are run 
will return correctly thanks to this shrine mapping file's translation of the 
query and i2b2's use of the path vs concept_cd.

I would agree that i2b2 needs to add an ethnicity_cd column to it's standard 
patient_dimension table.  But that shouldn't stop us from being able to use it 
with SHIRNE.

All,

To elaborate on Debbie's question here, let me expand a bit.  RACE_CD is a 
standard column in PATIENT_DIMENSION.  Ethnicity does not have a standard 
column in PATIENT_DIMENSION, but many of us in GPC added to a custom 
PATIENT_DIMENSION table in order to support a CDM requirement.

Ideally, GPC should propose to Partners to add a standard column to the i2b2 
PATIENT_DIMENSION table, especially since CDM requires this data?  I guess 
these organizations are not the same, but they all work together, and many of 
the same people are somewhat involved in the PCORI/CDM project.

In the short term and as an alternative, we could propose a new standard SCILHS 
concept named "SCILHS: ETHNICITY" and use the CONCEPT_DIMENSION instead.  Or in 
GPC, we could have a standard ethnicity concept named "GPC: ETHNICITY".  It 
just makes sense to have a standard concept to represent a standard CDM 
attribute.

Hi,



How are sites handling that both ETHNICITY and RACE are

referred to the RACE_CD in table PATIENT_DIMENSION for

the SCILHS 2.02 ontology?



For example, ETHNICITY:HISPANIC and RACE:01

have C_FACTTABLECOLUMN PATIENT_NUM,

C_TABLENAME PATIENT_DIMENSION,

C_COLUMNNAME RACE_CD.



So you can have an ethnicity or a race but not both.
