nameMJD gene allele 2 CAG repeats [Presence] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentMJD gene allele 2.CAG repeats
propertyPrThr  =  Present or threshold:  The Property PrThr stands for “Presence or Threshold”, meaning either a) the actual presence or absence of an analyte, or b) that the amount of analyte detected is over some predetermined threshold.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld/Tiss
    Bld  =  Whole blood
    Tiss  =  Tissue, unspecified
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.

Associated Observations

LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations.

History/Usage

last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonChanged Property from Arb (Arbitrary) to 'Threshold' since the results (e.g. positive, intermediate, negative) is based on the number of nucleotide repeats. Moved term from Class MOLPATH.TRINUC to MOLPATH.NUCREPEAT, a Class used to group together observations for nucleotide repeats.; The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
