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: build the analysis values of systolic blood pressure, AVAL, at each visit and as each subject's average, with PARAMCD, AVISIT and DTYPE, describing the observed and the averaged values apart.

Input: the subjects' systolic blood pressure, one row per subject per visit.

Variables:

  • PARAMCD is SYSBP, systolic blood pressure.
  • AVISIT is the visit of an observed value, and OVERALL for an average.
  • DTYPE is AVERAGE on a subject's average, and empty on an observed value.
  • AVAL is the observed value, or the mean of the subject's observed values over all visits.

Note: the observed values are described as the rows whose DTYPE is none of a list of values, but the list holds one value. A comparison against one value is written as inequality, so the description is rejected before any data is read.

How to fix

Select the rows whose derivation type is anything but AVERAGE with NE, which takes exactly one value:

where: {DTYPE: {comparator: NE, values: [AVERAGE]}}

Keep NOTIN for two or more values, such as [AVERAGE, LOCF] when the dataset also carries values carried forward.
