Hi Chikamso! FYI I rolled back your edit to https://bugsigdb.org/w/index.php?title=Property:Matched_on/Values&oldid=prev&diff=113178 because these factors should use the EFO wherever possible, and there are EFO terms for HP infection and proton pump inhibitors. I'm not sure it's possible though to match on or control for confounding by "ethical considerations" though - can you explain this? - User:Lwaldron

HP infection -> Helicobacter pylori infectious disease
Proton-pump inhibitor -> EC 3.6.3.10 (H(+)/K(+)-exchanging ATPase) inhibitor (sorry this one is so complicated!)

The ethical consideration is the medical research committe getting informed cnsent from the participant before the study commenced

that is not matching of case/control participants then. - User:Lwaldron

I am so sorry but I am not sure i understand what you mean by the "HP infection -> Helicobacter pylori infectious disease
Proton-pump inhibitor -> EC 3.6.3.10 (H(+)/K(+)-exchanging ATPase) inhibitor". Does this mean i should replace them on the page with the words you use instead?

yes because these are the valid EFO terms with the same meaning. - User:Lwaldron

Thank you so much for being patient with me. I understand now

But in a case that even after using the EFO terms and the orange warning doesnt go away, i should let it be right?
i tried editing pages with disallowed values using the EFO terms but when i click save change, the orange warning still remains. what could be the cause?

I have no way to know without a link to the page, but my guess is changes still propagating, or some minor difference in spelling or capitalization. You should be able to auto-complete once the change has propagated, which should be finished by now. - User:Lwaldron
