The number of identical terms between any two disease vocabularies indicates the degree of overlap between them. The off-diagonal numbers in the overlap matrix can be interpreted as the number of terms from the row disease resource covered by the column disease resource. For example, DO has common cross-references with 1492 of the 4799 ORDO terms, while ORDO has common cross-references with 1952 of the 8757 DO terms. The diagonal numbers in the overlap matrix indicate the total number of terms in each disease resource.
