Union of http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ebm/StructureDefinition/non-comparative-evidence and http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ebm/StructureDefinition/non-comparative-evidence

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles NonComparativeEvidence (http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ebm/StructureDefinition/non-comparative-evidence) and NonComparativeEvidence (http://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ebm/StructureDefinition/non-comparative-evidence). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
