ZNF224 Gene	NCIT_C126563	[This gene plays a role in the negative regulation of gene transcription.]
ZNF224 wt Allele	NCIT_C126564	[Human ZNF224 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 19q13.2 and is approximately 16 kb in length. This allele, which encodes zinc finger protein 224, is involved in transcriptional repression.]

Zinc Finger Protein 224	NCIT_C126565	[Zinc finger protein 224 (707 aa, ~82 kDa) is encoded by the human ZNF224 gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of gene transcription.]
C2H2 Zinc Finger	NCIT_C13294	[One of three structural motifs observed in DNA binding domains of zinc proteins. Domains in DNA- and RNA-binding proteins that contain amino acids which are folded into a single structural unit around a zinc atom that links two cysteines and two histidines. Each finger is postulated to recognize a specific sequence of about five nucleotide pairs. Originally identified in the TFIIIA transcription factor, it is also known as the C2H2 zinc finger.]
Primary Lesion	NCIT_C40558	[A term that refers to a pathologic process in its original anatomic site of growth.]
Visual Functioning Questionnaire 25-Interviewer Administered Format Version 2000	NCIT_C112527	[A standardized rating scale developed by RAND and sponsored by the National Eye Institute (NEI) to assess the dimensions of self-reported vision-targeted health status that are most important for individuals with chronic eye disease. It also measures the influence of visual disability and symptoms on emotional well-being, mental health, social and daily visual functioning. This questionnaire is in the Interviewer Administered Format and contains 25 multiple choice questions across 3 domains; general health and vision, difficulty with activates, and response to vision problems. It also includes an appendix of additional 13 questions researchers can use to expand the scales up to 38 total items.]
Intraocular Lesion	NCIT_C40559
Visual Functioning Questionnaire 25-Self Administered Format Version 2000	NCIT_C112528	[A standardized rating scale developed by RAND and sponsored by the National Eye Institute (NEI) to assess the dimensions of self-reported vision-targeted health status that are most important for individuals with chronic eye disease. It also measures the influence of visual disability and symptoms on emotional well-being, mental health, social and daily visual functioning. This questionnaire is in the Self or Patient Administered Format and contains 25 multiple choice questions across 3 domains; general health and vision, difficulty with activates, and response to vision problems. It also includes an appendix of additional 13 questions researchers can use to expand the scales up to 38 total items.]
AQ20 - Cough Often During the Day	NCIT_C112529	[Airway Questionnaire 20 (AQ20) Do you cough often during the day?]
AQ20 Questionnaire Question	NCIT_C112456	[A question associated with the AQ20 questionnaire.]
Modified Hachinski Ischemic Scale-NACC Version Questionnaire	NCIT_C112523	[A standardized rating scale originally developed by Hachinski et al in 1975 and later modified by Rosen et al in 1980 to clinically differentiate two most common types of dementia: senile dementia of the Alzheimer type (SDAT), a primary degenerative disease, and primary degenerative disease (MID), a vascular disorder. The modified version of the questionnaire contains 8 features for more accurate diagnosis of MID, the vascular dementia type. This questionnaire can be scored between 0 and 18, where a score greater than 7 suggests vascular involvement.]
Patient Determined Disease Steps Questionnaire	NCIT_C112524	[A standardized rating scale developed by Hohol et al in 1995, which is a self-assessment scale of functional disability in multiple sclerosis patients primarily based on ambulation. The questionnaire contains 1 question which is scored ranging from 0 (normal) to 8 (bedridden). A score of 0 to 2 indicates mild disability; a score of 3 to 5 indicates moderate disability; a score of 6 to 8 indicates severe disability.]
St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire Past 3 Months Version	NCIT_C112525	[A standardized, disease-specific rating scale developed by Jones et al in 1992, which is used to determine the impact on overall health, daily life and perceived well-being in patients with obstructive airway disease. The questionnaire contains 51 items across 2 parts; Symptoms component (frequency and severity with a 3-month performance recall); Impact component (activities that are causes to, or limited by breathlessness).]
St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire Past 4 Weeks Version	NCIT_C112526	[A standardized, disease-specific rating scale developed by Jones et al in 1992, which is used to determine the impact on overall health, daily life and perceived well-being in patients with obstructive airway disease.
