Data mining runs producing disproportionality scores

Oracle Empirica Signal performs the following data mining runs to calculate disproportionality scores for drug-event terms for various subpopulations. Oracle Empirica Signal executes these runs on the data configuration specified for Data configuration for 2D runs in the signal configuration, and names the runs in accordance with that data configuration.

For example, if the data configuration specified under Data configuration for 2D runs is 2018Q2: Vigibase (S), or an alias for 2018Q2: Vigibase (S), then the All run will be named 2018Q2: Vigibase (S) - All. If the data configuration specified under Data configuration for 2D runs is 2018Q2: Vigibase (S+C), or an alias for 2018Q2: Vigibase (S+C), then the All run will be named 2018Q2: Vigibase (S+C) - All.

The runs are:

  • All
  • Adult only
  • Elderly only
  • Fatal only
  • Female only
  • Male only
  • Pediatric only
  • Serious only
  • AM only

The runs use the Drug and Event variables for the 2D runs from the signal configuration as item variables.

The runs are stratified using the Stratification variables from the signal configuration.

In the descriptions that follow, the values shown in angle brackets (<>) represent values from the Vigibase signal configuration.
