Y-Axis Findings Test
Use this field to specify the findings value to be plotted on the Y axis of the Bubble Plot.
The units along the Y axis depend on the Findings Domain to Analyze.

Domain
Syntax
Default Values (if this parameter is left blank)
LB
The characters and spacing must match one of the values of the LBTESTCD variable in the lb.sas7bdat data set.
If no value is specified, the report will, by default, search the LBTESTCD column for one of the value strings corresponding to bilirubin ( "BILI", or "TBIL") to assign to this parameter. If the LBTESTCD values do not contain either of the strings listed above, the report assigns the second sorted lab test in the LBTESTCD column.
 
EG
The characters and spacing must match one of the values of the EGTESTCD variable in the eg.sas7bdat data set.
When EGPOS exists in the eg.sas7bdat data set, you must specify both the EGTESTCD and EGPOS values. To do so, concatenate the values and delimit them with a space.
If no value is specified, the report will, by default, search EGTESTCD for the string “QTCB” and assign the value containing this term (indicating Bazett’s QT interval correction) to this parameter. If the “QTCB” string is not contained in any of values in the EGTESTCD column, the report subsequently searches for the string “QTC” and assigns the value containing this term (indicating a QT interval correction test such as Fridericia’s QT interval correction, for example) to this parameter. If no corrected QT interval tests are present, the report searches for the string “QT” and defaults to the non-corrected QT interval. Finally, if no values contain these strings, the report assigns the second sorted test in the EGTESTCD column to this parameter.
EGPOS defaults to STANDING and then to the first sorted value.
VS
The characters and spacing must match one of the values of the VSTESTCD variable in the vs.sas7bdat data set.
When VSPOS exists in the vs.sas7bdat data set, you must specify both the VSTESTCD and VSPOS values. To do so, concatenate the values and delimit them with a space.
If no value is specified, the report will, by default, assign a VSTESTCD value corresponding to systolic blood pressure to this parameter. If the strings "SYS" or "SBP" are not found in the VSTESTCD column values, the report assigns the second sorted vital sign test in the VSTESTCD column.
VSPOS defaults to STANDING and then to the first sorted value.
Note: This report is case-insensitive. You can enter either upper- or lowercase letters or any combination thereof.
To Specify the Y-Axis Findings Test:
*
Click to open the Add window for the selected Findings Domain to Analyze,
*
Select the test to be plotted along the Y axis and click OK to add the test to the text box.
In this example, LB was selected as the domain and bilirubin levels are plotted on the Y axis.
