Other significant risk factors were not influenced by adjusting the models for mode of data documentation.
Taking immune suppressive medication was no longer a risk factor after adjusting for mode of data documentation.
The use of multiple data recording and transfer tools resulted in duplication of data documentation work for FHWs.
All codes and definitions of study variables were established before the beginning of the study and were uniformly documented as standard operating procedures for study data documentation.
Of the twenty-three acare care hospitals registered in the area of Goma (governmental, n = 5; non-governmental organization, n = 5; mission, n = 10; private, n = 3) and which met our inclusion criteria and were contacted, four (17%) stated to regularly care for victims of sexual violence and were visited for further data documentation.
With these challenges identified and addressed, we spent the end of 2013 selecting portions of the data for class (subsetting), abridging the data documentation for instructional use, and transforming the data to address its usage in an online setting (processing missing values for R, creating factor variables).
Second, to answer the call for transparency in data documentation [17], [18], we developed a scoring system based on our understanding of what the system was designed to reveal and what the cellular microarray system was measuring.
We also thank Eun Sil Baek and Han Na Park (Cancer Metastasis Research Center) for help with data documentation.
Investigators were compensated (at minimum rate) for the time associated with the data documentation for this study.
