A further clarification - cTAKES currently implements 5 of the UMLS semantic 
groups (semantic group consists of semantic types). If you'd like to use all 
133 UMLS semantic types, you'd need to extend cTAKES code to accommodate them.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Re: Drugs being filtered out..

Hi Prasanna, 

The value of that property needs to be a comma separated list of TUIs.
Also from a quick look in UmlsToSnomedConsumerImpl which I think is the parent 
class of what is being used in that xml file the key it is expecting is 
'medicationTuis' rather than 'drugTuis'. 

Hope that helps,

Britt
