Investigating SLE

This walkthrough uses the repository-backed sle module as a reproducible software example. It demonstrates validation and navigation; it does not make a clinical claim about systemic lupus erythematosus or recommend a treatment.

Research use only. Outputs are computational research artifacts, not medical advice, diagnosis, or clinical decision support.

Verify the module

From the repository root:

nosograph disease validate sle --strict
nosograph disease coverage sle

The strict command checks the module's repository contract. Coverage output identifies recorded fields and gaps; it does not establish that an unrecorded relationship is absent.

Follow the inspection path

  1. Open the local dashboard after following Installation or Docker.
  2. Select the SLE condition or inspect the module data locally.
  3. Open a recorded claim in Evidence Explorer.
  4. Read the exact predicate and evidence direction using the Claims and Evidence references.
  5. Follow source identifiers and available snapshot or fingerprint context through Provenance.
  6. Use Compare only when a cross-condition question is appropriate, and interpret KNOWN_ABSENT and NOT_RECORDED separately.

The module can contain sparse or source-dependent fields. Do not fill missing study, source, or provenance values with an assumed conclusion.
