EvidenceVariable.implicitRules (implicitRules) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.implicitRules Element `EvidenceVariable.implicitRules` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.implicitRules` as `Equivalent`. Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc. EvidenceVariable.language (language) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.language Element `EvidenceVariable.language` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.language` as `Equivalent`. Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute). EvidenceVariable.text (text) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.text Element `EvidenceVariable.text` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.text` as `Equivalent`. Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later. EvidenceVariable.contained (contained) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.contained Element `EvidenceVariable.contained` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.contained` as `Equivalent`. This should never be done when the content can be identified properly, as once identification is lost, it is extremely difficult (and context dependent) to restore it again. Contained resources may have profiles and tags In their meta elements, but SHALL NOT have security labels. EvidenceVariable.url (url) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.url Element `EvidenceVariable.url` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.url` as `Equivalent`. Can be a urn:uuid: or a urn:oid: but real http: addresses are preferred. Multiple instances may share the same URL if they have a distinct version. The determination of when to create a new version of a resource (same url, new version) vs. defining a new artifact is up to the author. Considerations for making this decision are found in [Technical and Business Versions](https://hl7.org/fhir/resource..html#versions). In some cases, the resource can no longer be found at the stated url, but the url itself cannot change. Implementations can use the [meta.source](https://hl7.org/fhir/resou.html#meta) element to indicate where the current master source of the resource can be found. EvidenceVariable.identifier (identifier) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.identifier Element `EvidenceVariable.identifier` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.identifier` as `Equivalent`. Typically, this is used for identifiers that can go in an HL7 V3 II (instance identifier) data type, and can then identify this evidence variable outside of FHIR, where it is not possible to use the logical URI. EvidenceVariable.version (version) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.version Element `EvidenceVariable.version` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.version` as `Equivalent`.

Allows filtering of evidence variables that are appropriate for use versus not. EvidenceVariable.date (date) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.date Element `EvidenceVariable.date` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.date` as `Equivalent`. Note that this is not the same as the resource last-modified-date, since the resource may be a secondary representation of the evidence variable. Additional specific dates may be added as extensions or be found by consulting Provenances associated with past versions of the resource. EvidenceVariable.publisher (publisher) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.publisher Element `EvidenceVariable.publisher` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.publisher` as `Equivalent`. Usually an organization but may be an individual. The publisher (or steward) of the evidence variable is the organization or individual primarily responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the evidence variable. This is not necessarily the same individual or organization that developed and initially authored the content. The publisher is the primary point of contact for questions or issues with the evidence variable. This item SHOULD be populated unless the information is available from context. EvidenceVariable.contact (contact) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.contact Element `EvidenceVariable.contact` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.contact` as `Equivalent`. May be a web site, an email address, a telephone number, etc. EvidenceVariable.description (description) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.description Element `EvidenceVariable.description` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.description` as `Equivalent`. This description can be used to capture details such as why the evidence variable was built, comments about misuse, instructions for clinical use and interpretation, literature references, examples from the paper world, etc. It is not a rendering of the evidence variable as conveyed in the 'text' field of the resource itself. This item SHOULD be populated unless the information is available from context (e.g. the language of the evidence variable is presumed to be the predominant language in the place the evidence variable was created). EvidenceVariable.note (note) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.note Element `EvidenceVariable.note` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.note` as `Equivalent`. EvidenceVariable.useContext (useContext) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.useContext Element `EvidenceVariable.useContext` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.useContext` as `Equivalent`.

EvidenceVariable.relatedArtifact (relatedArtifact) is equivalent to EvidenceVariable.relatedArtifact Element `EvidenceVariable.relatedArtifact` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.relatedArtifact` as `Equivalent`. Each related artifact is either an attachment, or a reference to another resource, but not both. EvidenceVariable.characteristic (characteristic) maps to wider concept EvidenceVariable.characteristic Element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic` is mapped to FHIR R4B element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic` as `Equivalent`. Characteristics can be defined flexibly to accommodate different use cases for membership criteria, ranging from simple codes, all the way to using an expression language to express the criteria.

The mappings for `EvidenceVariable.characteristic.definition[x]` do not cover the following types: DataRequirement, TriggerDefinition. The target context `EvidenceVariable.characteristic.definition[x]` is a choice-type element and cannot directly hold extensions. The context is moved up to parent element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic`. The standard extension `altnernate-canonical` has been mapped as PART of the representation of FHIR R4 element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic.definition[x]` with an unmapped canonical targets: ActivityDefinition. Source element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic.definition[x]` has unmapped canonical types. While the target element `EvidenceVariable.characteristic.definition[x]` is a choice type and does not allow extensions, the `alternate-canonical` extension can be applied to canoncial values within it.
