<description
value="This example of a ComparativeEvidenceReportSubject Profile expresses the conceptual group of PICO elements using the 'all of'' code in the combinationMethod element. Each of the characteristics described in this example are defined by reference to another Resource so the characteristic.code element has a value of text:'Defined by Reference' and uses a valueReference element. Three of the characteristics are defined by reference to a Group Resource and the last characteristic (Outcomes) is defined by reference to a List Resource. This example demonstrates the use of the 'conceptual' code for the membership element. In this case the Group Resource is being used for the conceptual grouping of characteristics and is not a group of people or physical objects."/>
