How how to include HLA test into the CDM

In FinnGen, we have derived the HLA (Human leukocyte antigen) information directly from the broader genetic data we have for each patient.

As this info comes directly from the genetic data we have the full HLA information
Gene, Allele group and protein
For example : HLA-A*01:01

Searching in atlas for for example “HLA-A*01:01”
It is not clear to me if we should include this as a

  • Measurements + Meas Value
    Athena
    Athena
    In this case seems that the measurement is differerent, comes from some blod/low resolution test and we cannot find all the Meas Values for it

  • Measurement [Presence]:
    Athena
    It seems to be for transplants proposes se we cannot find all codes for all the possible HLA values

  • Observation + free text:
    Athena
    We would prefer to have the info structured to better integration with our existing tools

  • New Genomic vocabularies:
    May be this will fit in what @Eric.Fey and @Christian_Reich have been recently doing ?
