window open, but no car alarm yet
Jul. 20th, 2016 02:12 amAnother hot day. Work is still, thank heavens, decently air-conditioned, but apparently the trains, besides being slow or malfunctioning today, were also heatboxes. I was grateful that I walk to and from work.
More work cross-mapping SNOMED CT concepts for syndromes today. A lot of said syndromes were already detailed on the Orphanet website - http://www.orpha.net/consor/cgi-bin/index.php - and while it was extremely interesting to read up on them, there is a part of me that is getting rather tired of microdeletion of chromosomes. I think the really annoying thing is having to map so many of these syndromes to rather vague, woolly, catch-all ICD-10 codes such as Q87.8 Other specified congenital malformation syndromes, not elsewhere classified. It offends my sense of tidiness and good mapping. But sometimes that's all there is.
Have got to stage in current chapter of book four where Irene is probably about to lose her temper and give some undiluted opinions to the people she's talking to. The consequences will be messy. But that's what happens when you lose your temper with dragons.
