Within this file, an evaluation was applied to the
datasets and the findings are listed as follows:
- Leading Space Label - Most if not all the SAS label
defined for the dataset has a leading blank space. For
example: AE dataset with variable STUDYID has label as shown
below where the leading space is highlighted.
Study
Identifier
A complete list of labels with leading space are found at: Difference
Test 1.
-
Missing Label - The datasets were missing dataset
level label for each domain. For example, AE domain
would need the label "Adverse Events". A
complete list of missing labels are found at: Difference
Test 5.
-
Subject vs. Patient - We tend to use
"Subject" as a standard rather than refer to
"Patient". Only a suggestion but we can
consider updating CO domain with the comment in value of
COVAL.
from:
PATIENT DID NOT TAKE DOSE
to:
SUBJECT DID NOT TAKE DOSE
-

two variables that was expected but are missing from the
dataset:
