* `'&lt;'`: the mapping is to a narrower term. e.g. original text =  diabetes , mapping =  diabetes mellitus . 
* `'?'`: the kind of mapping is unknown.

Plain or coded text items may appear in the EHR for which one or mappings in alternative terminologies are required. Mappings are only used to enable computer processing, so they can only be instances of `DV_CODED_TEXT`.

Used for adding classification terms (e.g. adding ICD classifiers to SNOMED descriptive terms), or mapping into equivalents in other terminologies (e.g. across nursing vocabularies).
