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.

Summary

What this benchmark means
README.md

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

Goal: derive each adverse event's analysis start date (ASTDT), the subject's date of first exposure to treatment (TRTSDT) and the treatment-emergent flag (TRTEMFL).

Input: adverse events carrying each event's start date, and subject-level records carrying each subject's first exposure date.

Variables:

  • ASTDT would be the event's start date.
  • TRTSDT would be the first exposure date of the event's subject.
  • TRTEMFL would be Y when the event starts on or after the first exposure date.

Note: every adverse event is required to belong to a subject with a subject-level record, so an event whose subject has none rejects the run with no artifact accepted, instead of leaving its first exposure date and its treatment-emergent flag blank.

How to fix

Add the subject-level record of subject YAMAA-01-104 when the subject belongs to the analysis population, or remove the event when the subject does not belong to the study. If events of subjects outside the subject-level data are acceptable, drop require_match: true from the input:

input:
  ADSL: {path: input/adsl.csv, types: {TRTSDT: date}}

The first exposure date is then missing for such an event, its flag is blank, and the run counts each such event under absent at the date's derivation.
