Reports | Findings Box Plots

Findings Box Plots
This report displays the box plots by treatment group representing the change from baseline in measurements for each test for specified findings domain across various time s or points in the study. Time s can be specified using a list of bracketed times or, alternatively, a number of time s can be set to create time s that span across the entire study.
If the variable xxBLCHG (where xx is substituted with the chosen domain 2 letter code) exists, this variable is used in plotting change from baseline. Otherwise, a measurement is determined to be a baseline measurement by the ABLFL or xxBLFL variable where xx is substituted with the 2-letter code for the chosen domain for analysis. If this variable does not exist, baseline is calculated from measurements taken on or before day 1 of the study. A time can be specified to determine baseline measurements.
Note : JMP Clinical uses a special protocol for data including non-unique Findings test names. Refer to How does JMP Clinical handle non-unique Findings test names? for more information.
Report Results Description
Running Findings Box Plots for Nicardipine using default settings generates the report shown below. Output from the report is organized into sections. Each section contains one or more plots, data panels, data filters, or other elements that facilitate your analysis.
LB Box Plots
Presents several Box Plot s representing the values chosen in Plot findings measurements as: from the dialog . The name of this section varies based on the domain chosen.
Note : The name of this section and the findings results ( LB , VS , or EG ) displayed depend on the domain selected using the Findings Domain to Analyze option.
It contains one or more set of Box Plot s with a box for each treatment.
Each box plot set represents an xxTESTCD from the selected domain. For example, in the graph above, the first figure represents K (Potassium). The first set of boxes ( Trial Max ) represents change from baseline versus the maximum Potassium value that occurs in the study. The second set of boxes ( Trial Mean ) represents change from baseline versus the average Potassium value that occurs in the study. The third set of boxes ( Trial Median ) represents change from baseline versus the median Potassium value that occurs in the study. The final set of boxes ( Trial Min ) represents change from baseline versus the minimum Potassium value that occurs in the study.
