Class: AssayOutputMeasurement

The measurement results produced by an assay. The specified output of a planned process. Each domain-specific assay class has a corresponding AssayOutputMeasurement subclass containing the named measurement slots for that assay type. This class represents the "output" in the Input/Process/Output model: what was measured and what values were obtained.

One AssayOutputMeasurement record represents the results for ONE experimental condition or group. When a study reports a control group and one or more treated groups (or a dose-response series), each group gets its own output record, marked with experimental_group and linked to the specific exposure condition via measured_under.

When a paper reports a result only as a chart or image (a bar graph, a stained section) and no exact number appears in the text, still create the output record: set data_in_figure_only, leave the numeric measurement slots empty, and attach an evidence item whose figure_reference names the figure, so the endpoint and its location are captured even though the value is not.
