Bar graph (Drug Profile page)

Bar graphs provide a straightforward way to display the items most closely associated with a selected drug, showing the strength of association by plotting each computed statistical score as the length of a horizontal bar.

For information about statistics in the graph, see MGPS computations, ROR computations, PRR computations, or Logistic regression computations.

  1. To set options for the graph, click Options. Specify the following options and click OK. The options apply to the specific chart, and are saved as part of the layout.
    Option Description

    N at least

    Display only combinations with an observed count (N) of at least the specified number.

    At most ____ associations

    Display no more than the specified number of combinations. You can display up to 200 combinations. If combinations are excluded because of this limit, a message appears below the graph.

    <score> at least

    Display only combinations with a score (EBGM, LROR, PRR, or ROR) of at least the specified number.

    <score> at least

    Display only combinations with a lower confidence limit (EB05, LR05, ROR05) of at least the specified number.

    Bar length controlled by

    Indicate whether you want bars to show in descending order by:

    • N (observed count).
    • The score (EBGM, LROR, PRR, or ROR).
    • The lower confidence interval score (EB05, LR05, ROR05).

    Bar color controlled by

    Indicate whether bar color should be controlled by:

    • EBGM, LROR, PRR, or ROR, as defined by the graph key.
    • EB05, LR05, ROR05, as defined by the graph key.
    • A single color for all graph bars.

    Order by bar length

    Show the bars of the graph in descending order based on bar length.

    Order by item

    Show the bars of the graph in alphabetical order.

  2. You can point to a bar of the graph to display statistics for the combination represented by the bar.
  3. If you click on a bar, you can then drill down to a list of cases for the bar, create a case series, transfer to case series, download cases, download case details, or run reports for those cases.
