Mortality Cause Comparison

The Mortality Cause Comparison process compares cause-of-death frequencies between treatment arms via a contingency analysis with mosaic plot .

What do I need?

This process requires several demographic- and disposition-related variables . These include:

•

USUBJID ,

•	a treatment variable ( the actual treatment received by each subject ( TRT01A )),

•	the planned treatment (intent-to-treat) for each subject ( TRT01P ), or the description of the planned treatment arm ( ARM ),

•	DSDECOD, and

•	DEATCHDSC .

Variables can be taken either from the subject level analysis data set ( ADSL ) included in the Analysis Data Model ( ADaM ) folder or from the DM and DS domains in SDTM . Refer to Localization-Specific Value Specification for more information about these data sets.

Output/Results

The output generated by this process is summarized in a tabbed report. Refer to the Mortality Cause Comparison output documentation for detailed descriptions and guides to interpreting your results.
