     SHDZOMIM is an R object that provides mappings between
     manufacturer identifiers and OMIM identifiers.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Each manufacturer identifier is mapped to a vector of OMIM
     identifiers. The vector length may be one or longer, depending on
     how many OMIM identifiers the manufacturer identifier maps to. An
     'NA' is reported for any manufacturer identifier that cannot be
     mapped to an OMIM identifier at this time.

     OMIM is based upon the book Mendelian Inheritance in Man (V. A.
     McKusick) and focuses primarily on inherited or heritable genetic
     diseases. It contains textual information, pictures, and reference
     information that can be searched using various terms, among which
     the MIM number is one. 

     Mappings were based on data provided by: Entrez Gene (
     ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/DATA ) on 2008-Sep2
