[jmp111]

Hi,
As part of a biomedical literature NLP project (Auto-CORPus, doi: 10.3389/fdgth.2022.788124) on document standardisation, we identified a number of new synonyms that were previously included in the IAO:'document part' sub-hierarchy (issue 234).
Here we would like to propose a further set of synonyms and three new terms that assist with determining the type of information contained in document parts for processing with text analytics.
