The SDTM examples used as the source data are from Section 2.1, Basic CMR Tests - for Systolic Function. The CV dataset contains 16 rows, 1-8 for visit 1 and 9-16 for visit 6. Of these rows, the CVTESTCD = "LVEF_C" and CVTESTCD = "RVEF_C" representing the Ventricular Ejection Fraction, Calculated (%) for left and right were selected for the analysis. The LB dataset test where LBTESTCD = "BNPPRONT" was used to add the value of BNPPRONT to compute the percent change over time, and then it was added as a potential covariate in each row for the last analysis.   As in all ADaM datasets, the Subject Level Analysis Dataset (ADSL) was merged in to the SDTM datasets to capture all the necessary demographics, treatments and other required variables for analysis of the data.

For the ADSL here is an additional SDTM dataset showing variables needed for ADSL.

Analysis Datasets

The example analysis dataset includes treatment and demographic information drawn from the ADSL, defined in the Metadata Table below. In this example, only some of the required variables, plus important stratification variables from ADSL, are shown for illustrative purposes. For example, one variable added; body surface area at baseline (BSABL)  was computed for baseline records in ADSL. However, since the subjects are children, the body surface area changes over time. Therefore, it would probably be necessary to have a separate dataset to represent this over time.

Ejection Fraction

  • change in ejection fraction, would expect a decline in EF 2-3% per year, would prefer an improvement or no change. Concerning if rapid progression, 10% decline or more, for example.

NTproBNP

  • % change over a period of time – a decrease would mean improvement, annually is appropriate
