Note: JMP Clinical uses a special protocol for data including non-unique Findings test names. Refer to How does JMP Clinical handle non-unique Findings test names? for more information.
Running Missing Findings for the Nicardipine study using default settings generates the report shown below:
|
•
|
Missing Findings Volcano Plot: Shows a volcano plot used to determine the deviation of the proportion of missing fundings results at each study site with the overall proportions for the whole study.
|
|
•
|
ECG Test Results (Missing Findings): Displays histograms showing distribution of ECG findings across study sites, tests, and visit numbers, as well as the frequencies of records with either available or missing results. Note: This test is usually not performed at every visit and so is normally not considered in this analysis. To view missing ECG results, you must reduce the threshold percentage of expected subjects and rerun the report.
|
|
•
|
Laboratory Test Results: Displays histograms showing distribution of laboratory test findings across study sites, tests, and visit numbers, as well as the frequencies of records with either available or missing results. Note: This test is usually not performed at every visit and so is normally not considered in this analysis. To view missing ECG results, you must reduce the threshold percentage of expected subjects and rerun the report.
|
|
•
|
Vital Signs (Missing Findings): Displays histograms showing distribution of vital signs findings across study sites, tests, and visit numbers, as well as the frequencies of records with either available or missing results.
|
|
•
|
Show Sites: Shows the rows of the data table for the selected points from the volcano plot. Clicking
 opens the following table: |
|
•
|
Missing Bar Charts: Select points on the volcano plot and click
 to display a bar chart for each point showing the proportions of missing and nonmissing records for the site as compared with the average of all of the other sites. |
|
•
|
Profile Subjects: Select subjects and click
 to generate the patient profiles. See Profile Subjects for additional information. |
|
•
|
Show Subjects: Select subjects and click
 to open the ADSL (or DM if ADSL is unavailable) of selected subjects. |
|
•
|
Show Records with Missing Test Results: Select one or more histograms and click
 to open a subset table containing all of the missing tests for the selected subjects. |

This report determines whether tests are expected or not at each visit according to dialog option (default 85%). If 85% of patients at a particular visit and/or time point have a test measured, this test is expected (assuming that the subjects have had the opportunity to attend this visit). Among expected tests and for each test, the proportion of “missingness” is calculated for each site (the suspect site, indexed with s) compared to all other sites taken together as a reference (indexed as o) using a Fisher's exact test. FDR p-values are calculated and the reference line is determined as described in How does JMP Clinical calculate the False Discovery Rate (FDR)?.
