 The COHORT_ATTRIBUTE table contains attributes associated with each subject within a cohort, as defined by a given set of criteria for a duration of time. The definition of the Cohort Attribute is contained in the ATTRIBUTE_DEFINITION table. The COHORT_ATTRIBUTE table contains attributes associated with each subject within a cohort, as defined by a given set of criteria for a duration of time.

   * Each record in the COHORT_ATTRIBUTE table is linked to a specific record in the COHORT table, identified by matching cohort_definition_id,​ subject_id, cohort_start_date and cohort_end_date fields.   * Each record in the COHORT_ATTRIBUTE table is linked to a specific record in the COHORT table, identified by matching cohort_definition_id,​ subject_id, cohort_start_date and cohort_end_date fields.
-  * It addes to the records ​additional information,​ such as co-variates, ​scores of disease assessment indices, etc.+  * It adds to the Cohort ​records ​calculated ​co-variates ​(for example ageBMI) or composite scales (for example Charleson index).
   * The unifying definition or feature of the Cohort Attribute is captured in the attribute_definition_id referring to a record in the ATTRIBUTE_DEFINITION table.   * The unifying definition or feature of the Cohort Attribute is captured in the attribute_definition_id referring to a record in the ATTRIBUTE_DEFINITION table.
   * The actual result or value of the Cohort Attribute (co-variate,​ index value) is captured in the value_as_number (if the value is numberic) or the value_as_concept_id (if the value is a concept) fields.   * The actual result or value of the Cohort Attribute (co-variate,​ index value) is captured in the value_as_number (if the value is numberic) or the value_as_concept_id (if the value is a concept) fields.
