Simplifying Multimodal Clinical Research Data Management: Introducing an Integrated and User-friendly Database Concept.
Article in Applied clinical informatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundClinical research, particularly in scientific data, grapples with the efficient management of multimodal and longitudinal clinical data. Especially in neuroscience, the volume of heterogeneous longitudinal data challenges researchers. While current research data management systems offer rich functionality, they suffer from architectural complexity that makes them difficult to install and maintain and require extensive user training.
objectivesThe focus is the development and presentation of a data management approach specifically tailored for clinical researchers involved in active patient care, especially in the neuroscientific environment of German university hospitals. Our design considers the implementation of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles and the secure handling of sensitive data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation.
methodsWe introduce a streamlined database concept, featuring an intuitive graphical interface built on Hypertext Markup Language revision 5 (HTML5)/Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) technology. The system can be effortlessly deployed within local networks, that is, in Microsoft Windows 10 environments. Our design incorporates FAIR principles for effective data management. Moreover, we have streamlined data interchange through established standards like HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA). To ensure data integrity, we have integrated real-time validation mechanisms that cover data type, plausibility, and Clinical Quality Language logic during data import and entry.
resultsWe have developed and evaluated our concept with clinicians using a sample dataset of subjects who visited our memory clinic over a 3-year period and collected several multimodal clinical parameters. A notable advantage is the unified data matrix, which simplifies data aggregation, anonymization, and export. THIS STREAMLINES DATA EXCHANGE AND ENHANCES DATABASE INTEGRATION WITH PLATFORMS LIKE KONSTANZ INFORMATION MINER (KNIME): .
conclusionOur approach offers a significant advancement for capturing and managing clinical research data, specifically tailored for small-scale initiatives operating within limited information technology (IT) infrastructures. It is designed for immediate, hassle-free deployment by clinicians and researchers.The database template and precompiled versions of the user interface are available at: https://github.com/stebro01/research_database_sqlite_i2b2.git.
