Target Metadata

	The diagnosis consists of a string of letters indicating diagnosed conditions.
	A diagnosis "-" indicates no condition requiring comment.  A diagnosis of the
	form "X|Y" is interpreted as "consistent with X, but more likely Y".  The
	conditions are divided into groups where each group corresponds to a class of
	comments.

	Letter	Diagnosis
	------	---------

	hyperthyroid conditions:

	A	hyperthyroid
	B	T3 toxic
	C	toxic goitre
	D	secondary toxic

	hypothyroid conditions:

	E	hypothyroid
	F	primary hypothyroid
	G	compensated hypothyroid
	H	secondary hypothyroid

	binding protein:

	I	increased binding protein
	J	decreased binding protein

	general health:

	K	concurrent non-thyroidal illness

	replacement therapy:

	L	consistent with replacement therapy
	M	underreplaced
	N	overreplaced

	antithyroid treatment:

	O	antithyroid drugs
	P	I131 treatment
	Q	surgery

	miscellaneous:

	R	discordant assay results
	S	elevated TBG
	T	elevated thyroid hormones
