EVS NCI example in RDF

Kerstin,

Can you check to see if the assumptions in this partial RDF example for a SDTM structured record are valid... I would like to see how the Domain, Obs and Context nodes can be placed:



xmlns:cdisc = "http://www.cdisc.org/sdtm/vocab"
xmlns:nci = "http://nci.nih.gov/cadsr/vocabulary"
xmlns:nist = "http://nist.gov/units"
...
                     //  Sex Text Code: 'MALE', 'FEMALE', 'UNKNOWN', 'Intersex'
<nci:Subject  rdf:id="S83221"> < nci:sex_code >  < nci:Female > ;
        < cdisc:for_Domain > <rdf:type> <cdisc:VitalSign> ;
             //  here I assume cdisc:Diastolic_BP is a subproperty of cdisc:VSTest-- is this valid?
                        < cdisc:has_Observation > <rdf:type> <cdisc: Diastolic_BP> ;  
                                <cdisc:obs_context>  <cdisc:patient_lying>;
                                <cdisc:obs_value>  "98";
                                <cdisc:obs_units>  <nist:mmHg> ; 
  ...  .
                        < cdisc:has_Observation > <rdf:type> <cdisc:Pulse> ; // cdisc:Pulse subproperty of cdisc:VSTest ?
                                <cdisc:obs_context>  <cdisc:patient_lying>;
                                <cdisc:obs_value>  "64";
                                <cdisc:obs_units>  <nist:bpm> ; 
                        ....
   .
