Label	Id	Description
Cadherin	NCIT_C16373	[The cadherins are transmembrane glycoproteins involved in calcium dependent specific cell-cell adhesion through homophilic binding. They are crucial for morphogenesis and synapse formation, but also are involved in tumor invasion. The classical cadherins have five homologous extracellular domains and a cytosolic domain which binds through catenin to the cytoskeleton. The extracellular domains are immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwiches comprising usually 7 strands in the two sheets.]
Cadherin-13	NCIT_C21022	[Cadherin-13 (713 aa, ~78 kDa) is encoded by the human CDH13 gene. This protein plays a role in cell-cell adhesion.]
Spinal Cord Stimulation	NCIT_C21023	[A highly invasive form of electroanalgesia used to treat various chronic pain syndromes, which resist treatment by more common means. It is also used to treat peripheral ischemia, peripheral vascular disease, complex regional pain syndrome, intractable angina, chronic mesenteric ischemia, and diabetic peripheral arterial occlusive disease. (from White, Li, and Chiu)]
Deep Brain Stimulation	NCIT_C21024	[A highly invasive form of electroanalgesia mainly used in the management of debilitating chronic pain syndromes after all other less invasive therapeutic modalities (including SCS) have failed. (White, Li, and Chiu)]
Cadherin-3	NCIT_C21020	[Cadherin-3 (829 aa, ~91 kDa) is encoded by the human CDH3 gene. This protein is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion.]
Anemia due to Chronic Disorder	NCIT_C35659	[Anemia due to a disorder that is persistent or long-standing in nature.]
Anemia	NCIT_C2869	[A reduction in the number of red blood cells, the amount of hemoglobin, and/or the volume of packed red blood cells. Clinically, anemia represents a reduction in the oxygen-transporting capacity of a designated volume of blood, resulting from an imbalance between blood loss (through hemorrhage or hemolysis) and blood production. Signs and symptoms of anemia may include pallor of the skin and mucous membranes, shortness of breath, palpitations of the heart, soft systolic murmurs, lethargy, and fatigability.]
Normal Blood Test Result	NCIT_C35655	[A laboratory test result indicating the results of the blood test are within normal parameters for the age and population.]
Normal Laboratory Test Result	NCIT_C35766	[A laboratory test result indicating the results of the lab test are within normal parameters for the age and population.]
Post Procedural Hemorrhage	NCIT_C35656	[Bleeding occurring after a medical intervention.]
Hemorrhage	NCIT_C26791	[The flow of blood from a ruptured blood vessel.]
Normal Phenolsulfonphthalein Test	NCIT_C35657	[A laboratory test result indicating normal parameters after a phenolsulfonphthaliein test.]
Congenital Dental Disorder	NCIT_C35658	[A non-neoplastic dental disorder that is present at birth.]
Non-Neoplastic Dental Disorder	NCIT_C35779	[A non-neoplastic disorder that affects the teeth and/or the periodontal tissues. Representative examples include odontoma, enamel hypoplasia, and periodontitis.]
Inferolateral Myocardial Infarction by ECG Finding	NCIT_C35673	[An electrocardiographic finding of an injury in leads corresponding to the anatomic region of the inferolateral wall of the heart.]
Myocardial Infarction by ECG Finding	NCIT_C101589	[An electrocardiographic finding of pathologic Q waves, which is suggestive of myocardial infarction of one or more regions of the heart. No specification is provided for localization. (CDISC)]
Astler-Coller B2 Colon Carcinoma	NCIT_C35674
Astler-Coller B2 Colorectal Carcinoma	NCIT_C36201
Colon Cancer by Astler-Coller Stage	NCIT_C7082
Recurrent Malignant Neoplasm of Salivary Gland	NCIT_C35675	[The reemergence of a malignant salivary gland neoplasm after a period of remission.]
