As a clinical trial statistician or programmer, answer two short questions in Your review: the task and the inputs. Agreeing with both approves this benchmark; disagreeing with either needs a comment. Propose a fix with the Edit button on any source file, or add it to your comments.
We suggest spending no more than 5 minutes on a review. The other tabs beside Your review are background for assessment, not under review.
Summary
README.mdPublic entries: Python and R. Passing coverage requires an installed inventory.
Goal: carry each subject's collected date of birth (BRTHDTC) into
the demographics domain, submitted as a complete ISO 8601 date.
Input: collected demographics with the study and subject identifiers and the date of birth as ISO 8601 text, empty when it was not recorded.
Variables:
BRTHDTCwould be the collected date of birth, copied as text. It is described to reviewers as a complete date, a year, month and day, so a birth date recorded to the month alone contradicts that description. Every birth date is checked against it once the variable is filled in, and the one recorded to the month rejects the run, so no artifact is accepted. A birth date that was not recorded is left empty.
How to fix
Lead with the collection: when the form records birth dates only to the month or the year for some subjects, the variable holds partial dates, and its submission type says so:
submission:
core: Perm
data_type: partialDate
origins:
- type: Collected
source: Investigator
When every birth date was in fact collected in full, correct the record
that lost its day at its source instead. Do not drop the declared type to
text: reviewers rely on it to read the values as ISO 8601 dates.
