LOINC Code 93044-6: Level of evidence Nom (Bld/Tiss)
93044-6 is a LOINC code used to identify Level of evidence Nom (Bld/Tiss) in laboratory and clinical observation data. You may see this code in lab systems, lab reports, EHR exports, interoperability feeds, or other structured clinical data exchanges. LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Level of evidence. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/Tiss.
LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Level of evidence. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/Tiss.
When is it used?
Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
Status: ACTIVE
Order vs observation: Observation
What it does not mean
The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.
Key facts
Level of evidence
In the interpretation of sequence variants, standard terminology is used to describe the level of evidence that supports the association between a particular genetic variant and a particular disorder or disease state. Three example answer lists for levels of evidence are listed below but we recognize that a local terminology may also be used based on other factors such as population, type of data studied, etc. The example answer list associated with this term is that given by the American College of Medical Genetics, but depending on the use case, other lists may be just as appropriate.

[https://jmd.amjpathol.org/article/S1525-1578(16)30223-9/pdf] Tier 1 Level A - (Strong Clinical Significance) FDA-approved therapy and/or included in professional guidelines. Tier 1 Level B - (Strong Clinical Significance) Well-powered studies with consensus from experts in the field. Tier 2 Level C - (Potential Clinical Significance) FDA-approved therapies for different tumor types or investigational therapies, multiple small published studies with some consensus. Tier 2 Level D - (Potential Clinical Significance) Preclinical trials or a few case reports without consensus. Tier 3 - (Unknown Clinical Significance) Not observed at a significant allele frequency in general or specific subpopulation databases or pan-cancer or tumor-specific variant databases, no convincing published evidence of cancer association. Tier 4 - (Benign or Likely Benign) Observed at significant allele frequency in the general or specific subpopulation databases and no existing published evidence of cancer association.
