1Figure 1Study Reference Period
  • The study reference period is defined as the timeframe between a subject's first and last exposure to a tobacco product. This study reference period is part of the overall context of the study represented by B and C. 
  • Observations about concomitant medications used by the subject with the timing of use is are collected in relation to the study reference period; for:
    • A, the start and end dates for the concomitant medication are known and are collected.
      • Collection fields CMSTDAT and CMENDAT are used to collect the start and end dates for the concomitant medication.
    • D, the start date for the concomitant medication is unknown and cannot be collected.
      • Collection field CMPRIOR is used to collect that the known start of the concomitant medication relative to exposure is prior to the subject's first exposure. 
      • Collection field CMENDAT is used to collect the known end date.
    • E, the subject has not discontinued the concomitant medication and therefore the end date for the concomitant medication cannot be collected. 
      • Collection field CMSTDAT is used to collect the known start date
      • Collection field CMONGO is used to collect that the use of the concomitant medication is ongoing relative the subject's last exposure.
  • The following variables are used to represent collected data in subsequent tabulation datasets:
    • RFSTDTC and RFENDDTC represent the dates of the subject's first and last exposure dates respectively in the Demography (DM) dataset.  
    • CMSTRF and CMENRF represent values from collection variables CMPRIOR and CMONGO.
2Figure 2Fixed Point in Time
  • The fixed point in time is defined as a subject's Screening visit
  • which is part of the overall context of the study (not shown).
  • A, the start and end dates for the concomitant medication are known and are collected.
  • D, the start date for the concomitant medication is unknown and cannot be collected.
    • CMPRIOR is used to collect that the known start of the concomitant medication relative to exposure is prior to the subject's first exposure.
