Rethinking clinical study data: why we should respect analysis results as data

重新思考临床研究数据:为什么我们应该尊重分析结果作为数据的价值

Abstract

The development and approval of new treatments generates large volumes of results, such as summaries of efficacy and safety. However, it is commonly overlooked that analyzing clinical study data also produces data in the form of results. For example, descriptive statistics and model predictions are data. Although integrating and putting findings into context is a cornerstone of scientific work, analysis results are often neglected as a data source. Results end up stored as "data products" such as PDF documents that are not machine readable or amenable to future analyses. We propose a solution to "calculate once, use many times" by combining analysis results standards with a common data model. This analysis results data model re-frames the target of analyses from static representations of the results (e.g., tables and figures) to a data model with applications in various contexts, including knowledge discovery. Further, we provide a working proof of concept detailing how to approach standardization and construct a schema to store and query analysis results.
