Trial concept calculated: earliest date of results as recorded in the register. At that date, results may have been incomplete and may have been changed later. For EUCTR, requires that results and preferrably also their history of publication have been included in the collection, using ctrLoadQueryIntoDb(queryterm = ..., euctrresultshistory = TRUE, con = ...). Cannot be calculated for ISRCTN, which does not have a corresponding field.

Usage

f.resultsDate(df = NULL)

Arguments

df

data frame such as from dbGetFieldsIntoDf. If `NULL`, prints fields needed in `df` for calculating this trial concept, which can be used with dbGetFieldsIntoDf.

Value

data frame with columns `_id` and `.resultsDate`, a date.

Examples

#> $euctr
#> [1] "firstreceived_results_date"         "trialInformation.analysisStageDate"
