We are working on a set of clinical notes where the language in the
notes is different to the language in the classification scheme, in this
case ICD9. The following words appear in ICD9 with a 'a' ending yet in
our notes will sometimes have an 's' ending. I have made a search of
Google and found all these words that can be found with an 's' ending
and only a few don't.
Can anyone give me an explanation for the different meanings for the two
different morphologies and a description of what contexts you would use
each of them in.
The word list is only the words in the notes we are using - there are
other examples e.g silicosia/silicosis
thanks
