Review ask

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.

What this benchmark means
README.md

Public entries: Python and R. Passing coverage requires an installed inventory.

Goal: turn each collected visit's blood pressure into one systolic and one diastolic analysis record, number each subject's visits in AVISITN, and flag the records of the subject's first visit in ABLFL.

Input: collected vital signs with one record per subject and visit, carrying the visit date (VSDTC) and the systolic (SYSBP) and diastolic (DIABP) blood pressure.

Variables:

  • PARAMCD would be SYSBP on the systolic record and DIABP on the diastolic record of each visit.
  • AVISITN would number each subject's visits from 1 in date order; the two records of one visit share its number.
  • ADT would be the visit date.
  • AVAL would be the systolic or diastolic blood pressure the record names; missing when the visit did not collect it.
  • ABLFL would be Y on the records of the subject's first visit, which this study takes as baseline, and blank on every other record.

Note: visits are numbered only after every analysis record has been built, so the visit number is available only to values listed after it, exactly like any other value. The baseline flag is listed before the visit number it reads, so the run is rejected before any data is read and no artifact is accepted.

How to fix

List AVISITN before ABLFL, so the flag reads a visit number that has already been counted:

- name: AVISITN
  type: int
  derivation:
    rank:
      method: dense
      window:
        group_by: [STUDYID, USUBJID]
        order_by: [ADT]
- name: ABLFL
  type: str
  derivation:
    flag: "AVISITN = 1"
