Abstract

Systems and methods for data visualization are disclosed. For example, one disclosed method, includes receiving data from a clinical trial, retrieving data relevant to a study indicator (SI) from a plurality of data entities, and calculating a plurality of SI values, each calculated SI value based on the data from one of the plurality of data entities. The method further includes generating a graphical visualization that includes a graphical region indicating one or more ranges of values, a plurality of graphical indicators, each of the plurality of graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values, wherein each of the plurality of graphical indicators is positioned within the graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values, and displaying the graphical visualization.

Claims (65)

1 . A method, comprising:

receiving data from a clinical trial;

retrieving data relevant to a study indicator (SI) from a plurality of data entities;

calculating a plurality of SI values, each calculated SI value based on the data from one of the plurality of data entities;

generating a graphical visualization comprising:

a graphical region indicating one or more ranges of values;

a plurality of graphical indicators, each of the plurality of graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values,

wherein each of the plurality of graphical indicators is positioned within the graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values, and

displaying the graphical visualization.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

assigning a classification to each of the plurality of SI values based at least in part on a threshold value.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein assigning the classification to each of the plurality of SI values is based at least in part on a plurality of threshold values.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the classification comprises one of a normal priority, an abnormal priority, or a critical priority.

5 . The method of claim 4 , further comprising generating a notification for at least one of the SI values assigned a critical priority classification.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein generating the notification comprises transmitting the notification to at least one of a contract research organization or a clinical trial site.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising assigning a variable visual characteristic to each the plurality of graphical indicators based on the position of the respective graphical indicator within the graphical region.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphical region indicates ranges of values corresponding to a normal distribution.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphical region comprises a two-dimensional plot, wherein at least one of the dimensions indicates ranges of values corresponding to a normal distribution.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphical visualization further comprises:

a second graphical region indicating a second set of one or more ranges of values; and

a second plurality of graphical indicators, each of the second plurality of graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values,

wherein each of the second plurality of graphical indicators are positioned within the second graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein displaying the graphical visualization comprises displaying the graphical region, the plurality of graphical indicators, the second graphical region, and the second plurality of graphical indicators substantially simultaneously.

12 . A computer-readable medium comprising program code for causing one or more processors to execute a method, the program code comprising:

program code for receiving data from a clinical trial;

program code for retrieving data relevant to a study indicator (SI) from a plurality of data entities;

program code for calculating a plurality of SI values, each calculated SI value based on the data from one of the plurality of data entities;

program code for generating a graphical visualization comprising:

a graphical region indicating one or more ranges of values;

a plurality of graphical indicators, each of the plurality graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values,

wherein the program code for generating the graphical visualization is configured to position each of the plurality of graphical indicators within the graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values, and

program code for displaying the graphical visualization.

13 . The computer-readable medium of claim 12 , further comprising:

assigning a classification to each of the plurality of SI values based at least in part on a threshold value.

14 . The computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the program code for assigning the classification to each of the plurality of SI values is configured to assign the classifications based at least in part on a plurality of threshold values.

15 . The computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the classification comprises one of a normal priority, an abnormal priority, or a critical priority.

16 . The computer-readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising program code for generating a notification for at least one of the SI values assigned a critical priority classification.

17 . The computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the program code for generating the notification comprises program code for transmitting the notification to at least one of a contract research organization or a clinical trial site.

18 . The computer-readable medium of claim 12 , further comprising program code for assigning a variable visual characteristic to each the plurality of graphical indicators based on the position of the respective graphical indicator within the graphical region.

19 . The computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the graphical region is configured to indicate ranges of values corresponding to a normal distribution.

20 . The computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the graphical region comprises a two-dimensional plot, wherein at least one of the dimensions indicates ranges of values corresponding to a normal distribution.

21 . The computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the graphical visualization further comprises:

a second graphical region indicating a second set of one or more ranges of values; and

a second plurality of graphical indicators, each of the second plurality of graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values,

wherein each of the second plurality of graphical indicators are positioned within the second graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values.

22 . The method of claim 20 , wherein displaying the graphical visualization comprises displaying the graphical region, the plurality of graphical indicators, the second graphical region, and the second plurality of graphical indicators substantially simultaneously.

23 . A system comprising:

a computer-readable medium; and

a processor in communication with the computer-readable medium, the processor configured to:

receive data from a clinical trial;

retrieve data relevant to a study indicator (SI) from a plurality of data entities;

calculate a plurality of SI values, each calculated SI value based on the data from one of the plurality of data entities;

generate a graphical visualization comprising:

a graphical region indicating one or more ranges of values;

a plurality of graphical indicators, each of the plurality graphical indicators corresponding to one of the of plurality of SI values,

wherein the processor is configured to position each of the plurality of graphical indicators within the graphical region based on the respective corresponding SI value and the one or more ranges of values, and

display the graphical visualization.

24 . The system of claim 23 , wherein the processor is further configured to assign a classification to each of the plurality of SI values based at least in part on a threshold value.

25 . The system of claim 24 , wherein the processor is configured to assign the classification to each of the plurality of SI values based at least in part on a plurality of threshold values.
