Displayed in the top left corner of the page, this statement describes the number of currently selected row identifiers, the total number of row identifiers, and the corresponding sample/population rate formatted as a percentage to one decimal place. Initially all events are visible in the chart and the sample/population rate is set to the number of row identifiers with any event divided by the total number of row identifiers, unless the project team requests otherwise. Filters affect the sample count and the population statistics are updated accordingly.
This drop-down lists all row identifiers included in the data. Selecting a specific row identifier displays a more detailed view of events experienced by that row identifier. This filter defaults to 'All'.
This menu is used to filter on various clinical events in the data set. The default is set to include all events, but users can select one or more events using CTRL + click. Each event type corresponds to a colored dot in the legend above the chart. Selecting an event type will display data that corresponds with the appropriate colored event, so events can be viewed in the timeline at a glance.
In addition to the event type filter, users can filter the data by event type using the legend. This feature can be employed by clicking on a colored box or the event type description next to it. If an event type is already selected, then clicking it in the legend will filter the data so that event type is no longer displayed and it will also deselect the event type within the filter picklist.
This drop-down lists all the sites included in the data. The default is set to include all sites, but users can select a specific site to subset the data and alter the chart.
This drop-down allows users to select if they would like to view all data, only view ongoing event data, or exclude ongoing event data. Events that are classified as ongoing are capped on the end of the right side with a right arrow symbol indicating this status.
This drop-down highlights the selected event type in a bold, black fill within the display and also outlines the event type box within the legend. The default is set to 'None', but can be changed to highlight one event type at a time in the chart.
This toggle can sort the participant IDs included in the data set. This option can sort the data by the participants with the earliest occurring clinical event(s) or the participants that appear first alphabetically in descending order. This option defaults to the earliest occurring clinical events and their related participants.
This drop-down filter allows users to view the y-axis by a selected group. One group by variable can be selected at a time. The default group variable is set to 'None', but the default can be adjusted to any group upon the project team's request. Selecting a group will display the participant data by group.
Users can opt to view a vertical dotted reference line that marks a study day or another label within the chart. These lines are not included in the default set up because the lines must be specified by the user. Along with the vertical dotted line marking, the lines also have hover capabilities that users can mouse over to see more information about the line.
By moving a mouse cursor over an event in the chart, users can display metadata for some variables. Hovering the cursor over a particular point will display the name of the event, the day the event started, and the day the event stopped. More information about the event can be accessed by clicking on the participant ID to the left of the chart or filtering on the ID. Additional settings can be applied to display different variable data within the tooltip.
Hovering the cursor over a particular data point will display some data, but clicking on the participant ID to the left of the chart or filtering on participant ID will load a more detailed view of all events. This view displays an individual clinical timeline for the participant and the raw data for a participant's clinical events. When initiated, the top left corner of the page will list the participant ID that the user is viewing. Users can also add additional participant characteristics, such as demographic information, underneath the participant ID in the details view by configuring the chart settings.
The individual subject timeline shows all of the clinical events for a single participant in a timeline graphic. This display shows events broken out by type and includes the same information displayed on hover. The filtering options for participant and event type can also be used in this view. If a combination of participant and event type is selected that returns no results, then a message stating 'No data selected.' is displayed.
The detailed view shows the raw data for each event associated with a single participant. This data is listed in a table and it shows the event name, sequence number for the event, the day the event started, the day the event stopped, the participant's id, and the site associated with the event. Users can add additional columns to this summary table by configuring the chart settings.
If the data doesn't fit on the initial page, then pagination options appear at the bottom right corner. Each page defaults to show 10 records, so the pagination allows users to explore more data records than what is presented on the default page. This feature can be turned on/off by configuring the chart settings.
The detailed view allows the user to search for a specific term to locate it in the data. To initiate this feature, users can type text into the box and the entry automatically searches through the data listing and displays results with matching text. The number of records displayed is shown to the right of the search box. To return to the default data display, the user can click in the search box and delete the entered text. The search feature can be turned on/off by configuring the chart settings.
Users can click on a column header and sort the data within a column in ascending and descending order. The first time a user clicks the column header, the column is sorted in ascending order and a box appears above the data listing containing the variable name that has been selected and an arrow indicating the direction of the ordered data. When a user clicks the column header a second time, the data will be sorted in descending order and the direction of the arrow in the box above the data listing will change to match the new sort. Clicking on the red 'x' within the box containing the variable name both removes the sorting and closes the box. The sort feature can be turned on/off by configuring the chart settings.
Users can download the data as a CSV by clicking on the 'CSV' button located underneath the chart within the detailed view. The CSV file will contain all of the data if no filters have been utilized. If filters have been used, the CSV file will contain the resulting data. The file will also capture any sorting that has been initialized in the data. The CSV download will be named using the following convention: webchartsTableExport, date, and time. This feature can be turned on/off by configuring the chart settings.
The 'Back' button is only visible if users have clicked on the detailed view for a given participant. Clicking on this button returns users to the default Clinical Timelines view.
