Blank CPT4 CONCEPT_NAMEs

Hello, when downloading the CPT4 Vocab files we noticed that alot of the CONCEPT_NAME fields are blank. Is this on purpose?

Thanks!

@meier102 - you problably didn’t run the CPT4.jar.

The README you get with the Vocabulary files tells you about this:

CPT4 utility for CDM v5.

This utility will import the CPT4 vocabulary into concept.csv.
Internet connection is required.

Start import process from command line with: "java -jar cpt4.jar 5"
or use cpt.sh or cpt.bat depending on your OS.
Do not close or shutdown your PC until the end of import process,
it will cause damage to concept.csv file.

The number of imported records will be shown in command line,
import process finishes with: "CPT successfully updated." message.

I’m assuming this because there are some concepts missing CONCEPT_NAMES (https://github.com/OHDSI/Vocabulary-v5.0/issues/6) but none of them seem to be CPT4s.
