    Description

    The National Database for Clinical Trials Related to Mental Illness (NDCT) is an extensible informatics platform for relevant data at all levels of biological and behavioral organization (molecules, genes, neural tissue, behavioral, social and environmental interactions) and for all data types (text, numeric, image, time series, etc.) related to clinical trials funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. Sharing data, associated tools, methodologies and results, rather than just summaries or interpretations, accelerates research progress. Community-wide sharing requires common data definitions and standards, as well as comprehensive and coherent informatics approaches for the sharing of de-identified human subject research data. Built on the National Database for Autism Research (NDAR) informatics platform, NDCT provides a comprehensive data sharing platform for NIMH grantees supporting clinical trials.

    Description

    MIMIC-III is a large, freely-available database comprising deidentified health-related data associated with over forty thousand patients who stayed in critical care units of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center between 2001 and 2012. The database includes information such as demographics, vital sign measurements made at the bedside (~1 data point per hour), laboratory test results, procedures, medications, caregiver notes, imaging reports, and mortality (including post-hospital discharge).MIMIC supports a diverse range of analytic studies spanning epidemiology, clinical decision-rule improvement, and electronic tool development. It is notable for three factors: it is freely available to researchers worldwide; it encompasses a diverse and very large population of ICU patients; and it contains highly granular data, including vital signs, laboratory results, and medications.

    Description

    The Study Hub NFDI4Health COVID-19 is an inventory of German COVID-19 studies covering structured health data from administrative databases, clinical trials incl. vaccination studies, primary care, epidemiological studies, and public health surveillance. The aim is to enable findability of studies and access to structured health data to improve the management of public health data on the COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike other initiatives, the Study Hub NFDI4Health COVID-19 will focus not only on clinical research but also on studies relating to the consequences of the pandemic for public health, such as utilisation of healthcare services, quality of life and the effects of social isolation. Furthermore, the hub provides access to the instruments like (sample) questionnaires and more information down to the variable level. Underlying the hub there is a metadata model embedded in the publication policy(opens in a new tab or window).

    The Study Hub is currently under construction and we will constantly extend the content provided.

    This portal contains studies obtained from DRKS(opens in a new tab or window), clinicaltrials.gov(opens in a new tab or window), and WHO ICTRP(opens in a new tab or window). Further, manually collected ones are included. Within tabular visualisations a row entitled `Data Source` can be selected to display the source information. Within other visualisations the information is directly visible. DRKS and WHO studies have been last updated 14 days ago. We try to update the data every week. The next update will take place on 07/25/2022. Additionally, an overview of empirical research on the social impact of the corona pandemic is created by Corona Pandemic Research (RatSWD) and is available here(opens in a new tab or window).

    Description

    Public-private partnerships (PPPs) for neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are often studied as an organizational form that facilitates the management and control of the huge costs of drug research and development. Especially the later stages of drug development, including clinical trials, become very expensive. This present study investigates whether and how the type of PPPs influences the initiation and duration of NTD clinical trials. Using the ClinicalTrials.gov database, a dataset of 1175 NTD clinical studies that started between 2000 and 2021 is analyzed based on affiliation information and project duration. For the NTD clinical trials that resulted from PPPs, the collaborating types were determined and analyzed, including the public sector-, private sector-, governmental sector-, and nongovernmental organization-led collaborations. The determinants for the discontinuation of all stopped clinical trials were categorized into scientific-, funding-, political-, and logistic dimensions. The results reveal that public sector-led PPPs were the most common collaborative types, and logistic and scientific issues were the most frequent determinants of stopped clinical trials.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov.

    Description

    Beginning March 1, 2022, the "COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data" will be updated on a monthly basis. This case surveillance public use dataset has 12 elements for all COVID-19 cases shared with CDC and includes demographics, any exposure history, disease severity indicators and outcomes, presence of any underlying medical conditions and risk behaviors, and no geographic data. CDC has three COVID-19 case surveillance datasets: COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data with Geography: Public use, patient-level dataset with clinical data (including symptoms), demographics, and county and state of residence. (19 data elements) COVID-19 Case Surveillance Public Use Data: Public use, patient-level dataset with clinical and symptom data and demographics, with no geographic data. (12 data elements) COVID-19 Case Surveillance Restricted Access Detailed Data: Restricted access, patient-level dataset with clinical and symptom data, demographics, and state and county of residence. Access requires a registration process and a data use agreement. (32 data elements) The following apply to all three datasets: Data elements can be found on the COVID-19 case report form located at www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/downloads/pui-form.pdf. Data are considered provisional by CDC and are subject to change until the data are reconciled and verified with the state and territorial data providers. Some data cells are suppressed to protect individual privacy. The datasets will include all cases with the earliest date available in each record (date received by CDC or date related to illness/specimen collection) at least 14 days prior to the creation of the previously updated datasets. This 14-day lag allows case reporting to be stabilized and ensures that time-dependent outcome data are accurately captured. Datasets are updated monthly. Datasets are created using CDC’s operational Policy on Public Health Research and Nonresearch Data Management and Access and include protections designed to protect individual privacy. For more information about data collection and reporting, please see https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/data-collection.html For more information about the COVID-19 case surveillance data, please see https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/faq-surveillance.html Overview The COVID-19 case surveillance database includes individual-level data reported to U.S. states and autonomous reporting entities, including New York City and the District of Columbia (D.C.), as well as U.S. territories and affiliates. On April 5, 2020, COVID-19 was added to the Nationally Notifiable Condition List and classified as “immediately notifiable, urgent (within 24 hours)” by a Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) Interim Position Statement (Interim-20-ID-01). CSTE updated the position statement on August 5, 2020 to clarify the interpretation of antigen detection tests and serologic test results within the case classification. The statement also recommended that all states and territories enact laws to make COVID-19 reportable in their jurisdiction, and that jurisdictions conducting surveillance should submit case notifications to CDC. COVID-19 case surveillance data are collected by jurisdictions and reported volun

    Description

    Objective: In public health, access to research literature is critical to informing decision making and to identify knowledge gaps. However, identifying relevant research is not a straightforward task since public health interventions are often complex, can have positive and negative impacts on health inequalities and are applied in diverse and rapidly evolving settings. We developed a ‘living’ database of public health research literature to facilitate access to this information using Natural Language Processing tools. Materials and Methods: Classifiers were identified to identify the study design (e.g. cohort study or clinical trial) and relationship to factors that may be relevant to inequalities using the PROGRESS-Plus classification scheme. Training data was obtained from existing MEDLINE labels and from a set of systematic reviews in which studies were annotated with PROGRESS-Plus categories. Results: Evaluation of the classifiers showed that the study type classifier achieved average precision and recall of 0.803 and 0.930 respectively. The PROGRESS-Plus classification proved more challenging with average precision and recall of 0.608 and 0.534. The FAIR database uses information provided by these classifiers to facilitate access to inequality-related public health literature. Discussion: Previous work on automation of evidence synthesis has focussed on clinical areas rather than public health, despite the need being arguably greater. Conclusion: The development of the FAIR databased demonstrates that it is possible to create a publicly accessible and regularly updated database of public health research literature focused on inequalities. The database is freely available (https://eppi.ioe.ac.uk/eppi-vis/Fair). Methods 1978 papers that had been included in systematic reviews previously were identified for training and testing the machine learning model.

    Description

    BackgroundPlague is a zoonotic disease that, despite affecting humans for more than 5000 years, has historically been the subject of limited drug development activity. Drugs that are currently recommended in treatment guidelines have been approved based on animal studies alone–no pivotal clinical trials in humans have yet been completed. As a result of the sparse clinical research attention received, there are a number of methodological challenges that need to be addressed in order to facilitate the collection of clinical trial data that can meaningfully inform clinicians and policy-makers. One such challenge is the identification of clinically-relevant endpoints, which are informed by understanding the clinical characterisation of the disease–how it presents and evolves over time, and important patient outcomes, and how these can be modified by treatment.Methodology/Principal findingsThis systematic review aims to summarise the clinical profile of 1343 patients with bubonic plague described in 87 publications, identified by searching bibliographic databases for studies that meet pre-defined eligibility criteria. The majority of studies were individual case reports. A diverse group of signs and symptoms were reported at baseline and post-baseline timepoints–the most common of which was presence of a bubo, for which limited descriptive and longitudinal information was available. Death occurred in 15% of patients; although this varied from an average 10% in high-income countries to an average 17% in low- and middle-income countries. The median time to death was 1 day, ranging from 0 to 16 days.Conclusions/SignificanceThis systematic review elucidates the restrictions that limited disease characterisation places on clinical trials for infectious diseases such as plague, which not only impacts the definition of trial endpoints but has the knock-on effect of challenging the interpretation of a trial’s results. For this reason and despite interventional trials for plague having taken place, questions around optimal treatment for plague persist.
