ISARIC Clinical Data Model

Warning

This repository is no longer maintained. Development has moved to the ISARIC 3.0 Pipeline repository at https://github.com/globaldothealth/isaric-pipeline. The pipeline repository will standardise information in FHIR format, instead of bespoke schemas such as the one in this repository.

parsers

ISARIC Clinical Data Model development. This repository has the schemas and parser specifications. For the parsing library that does the data transformation, see adtl.

Schemas

Each table in the ISARIC schema has a corresponding JSON Schema specification in schemas. These schemas supersede the schemas.py file in previous versions of this repository, as well as the taxonomy files, which are now contained within the JSON schemas.

Schemas are versioned by the folder name (dev, v1, v2) under schemas. At present, ISARIC schemas are under development, so they are located under dev. Once the schema is finalised, it will be renamed to v1, following which only additive changes will be performed on the schema. Breaking changes will require a new version to be assigned.

Parsers

Parser specification files, such as isaric-ccpuk under parsers describe the field mappings that are parsed by adtl. The parser TOML (or JSON) file follows the adtl specification.

How to use these

To transform the input files (usually database snapshots from REDCap), install adtl. Use adtl --help to look at the options. As an example, to transform the REDCap data to the ISARIC schema for the CCPUK study:

adtl isaric/parsers/isaric-ccpuk.toml data.csv

This will create a file isaric-ccpuk-{table}.csv for each table specified in the specification file. The file prefix (isaric-ccpuk) can be changed by passing the -o (--output) flag. If a schema is specified for a particular table in the parser file, then adtl uses it for validation. Validation status (true/false) and error messages are reported in the adtl_valid and adtl_error columns in the output respectively.

Running with RELSUB matching

ISARIC source datasets have unique visit IDs, with every patient assigned a new ID on every visit. There is a separate table (RELSUB in SDTM), which matches visit IDs for the same subject. So if visit A012 and A342 refer to the same patient, there would be an entry in the RELSUB table like: A012,A342,SAME. For datasets that have relsub matching (ref = "relsub" present in subject ID definition), we need to generate the RELSUB matching definition first, before calling adtl with the RELSUB map. As an example, for the CCPUK RELSUB file (corresponding parser), this is the procedure to transform the source data with RELSUB mapping:

# Create the RELSUB mapping
python3 scripts/relsub.py CCPUK_RELSUB.csv -o isaric-ccpuk-relsub.json
adtl isaric/parsers/isaric-ccpuk.toml ../isaric-data/ccpuk.csv --include-def isaric-ccpuk-relsub.json

The RELSUB script expects the ID columns to be named USUBJID, RSUBJID; these can be changed via parameters, see python3 scripts/relsub.py --help.

Development

Install pre-commit and setup pre-commit hooks (pre-commit install) which will do linting checks before commit.
