mrconso_search_functions: Search MRCONSO Functions

In patelm9/metaorite: metaorite Package

Description

These functions help search for mappings between an a concept and a Metathesaurus identifier in the MRCONSO Table. All queries are cached using the R.cache package for quicker retrieval of the more computationally expensive searches.

Arguments

conn	Postgres connection
schema	Metathesaurus schema
concept	Concept to be searched
match_case	If TRUE, both the MRCONSO STR column and the 'concept' argument are converted to lowercase.
cache_only	If TRUE, only the cache is loaded and database querying is skipped. If a cache did not exist for the query, a NULL will be returned.
skip_cache	If TRUE, the cache is skipped altogether. The database is directly queried and the resultset is not cached.
override_cache	If TRUE, the cache is not loaded, the database is directly queried and the resultset is cached, overwriting any existing cache that may have been present.

Value

Dataframe of 0 or more rows of all the fields in the MRCONSO Table.
