About the FAIR-conceptTracer Web Client Plugin

Introduction

This plugin is part of the FAIR (Familial, Associational, & Incidental Relationships) Tool Set developed as a result of feedback and suggestions from the i2b2 users community in the University of Massachusetts Medical School. As its name implies, the purpose of this tool set is to facilitate a researcher in the pursuit of studies which may involve members of a patient's relationships of any defined types.
This plugin provides the following main functions:

  1. Tabulates all available FAIR members of each patient for a set of selected Patients.
  2. Allows selection of certain patients and their FAIR members for tracing concepts in them in tabulation.
  3. Optionally exports aforementioned tabulated data into an Excel spreadsheet file and / or a CSV file conveniently.

Instructions

  1. Navigate to the "Specify Data" tab; then, drag and drop a desired Patient Set and one or more Concepts onto the input boxes provided.
  2. Click the "Select Subjects" tab to view the patients and their FAIR members.
  3. Select appropriate subjects for tracing the selected Concepts ("concept_cd") in the "related" individuals.
  4. Click the "View Results" tab to view the tabulated results.
  5. Optionally click the appropriate button to export the tabulated data into an Excel spreadsheet file and / or a CSV file conveniently.
  6. Optionally repeat steps 3-4 (or 3-5) to select different subjects and FAIRs for additional / different Concept tracing.
