Readme file



Updated to remove x prefixes + move to Production naming conventions, as expected

4 records had UUID's updated, as expected (as this is a first time Production release so it will ALWAYS refresh the UUIDS)

ModuleDependency files

2

Both records had UUID's updated, as expected (as this is a first time Production release so it will ALWAYS refresh the UUIDS)

EffectiveTimes etc updated for Jan 2021 as expected

SNOMED to MedDRA Map files



3684 records removed

3729 added

This means all 3684 records had their effectiveTimes replaced (since the Alpha) with the new Prod effectiveTimes + 45 new records were added since last year's Alpha release...

This matches the stats in the WCI files exactly (3729 new records in 2021 Prod release).

Emailed Rick to check the extra 45 records sounds right...

6374 records removed

6467 added

This means all 6374 records had their effectiveTimes replaced (since the Alpha) with the new Prod effectiveTimes + 93 new records were added since last year's Alpha release...

This matches the stats in the WCI files exactly (6467 new records in 2021 Prod release).

OWLExpression files



STILL MISSING IN VERSION 2 package?!!! Can't get the package to include them (no help in logs!), so will add in for the Production release in 2021.....
