While it could be possible to display a set of pure val_alpha results
graphically (say, as histograms) I will assume val_alpha to be out of scope for
conversion.
Looking now at val_num within test_type (or meta_test_type) ...
- if all rows would share the same val_unit, then no conversion is *required*
- however even in the case above, a praxis could desire all weights -- despite
that they were recorded in pounds -- to be expressed as kg so it seems to me
that in any situation where
clin.test_type.conversion_unit < > val_unit
then the values should, before graphing, be "passed" through the converter
wherein all are matched through one of
public.unit.name_short = clin.test_type.abbrev
public.unit.name_long = clin.test_name
which should produce the same result.
and clin.test_type.conversion_unit must not only match
clin.test_type.abbrev
but also
public.basic_unit. name_short
??
