Grip Covarianes and Correlations table for Sean 2017-06-02.xlsx
Pulmonary Meta-analysis 2017-06-20.xlsx
I presume they all contain the same structure of domains (at least it appears so at a glimpse), I will be using the file 5 Table 4.xlsx for my reference. Please direct me otherwise, if incorrect.
@andkov Yes, please use "5 Table 4" (it is the same structure as "Pulmonary Meta-analysis," just a little easier to look at).
I know there are a studies and few measures used within grip that we did not use for pulmonary... so anything that is not resolved with "5 Table 4" should be able to be resolved with "Grip Covariances and Correlations table for Sean."
@eduggan , thanks for clarification. I'll then just use Grip Covarianes and Correlations table for Sean 2017-06-02.xlsx to kill two birds with one stone (what a violent idiom, now that I think of it!! why would you want to kill a bird?? )
@andkov I think the vice versa problem exists too (some things in pulmonary not used in grip)... although I am not sure and only have recently come on to help out this the project. I just know the pulmonary has been fully vetted and put through the ringer (in terms of looking for errors in grouping, ordering, etc). In theory using Grip Covarianes and Correlations table for Sean 2017-06-02.xlsx should be faster... just can't guarantee that ;)
@eduggan , I'm comparing the grip and pulmonary spreadsheets. Do you want to refer to MMSE measure in EAS as "Calculated MMSE" or just "MMSE"? spreadsheets show both use
EAS used BIMC and converted the scores to a MMSE metric. The most appropriate label for this is calculated MMSE. All other studies with "MMSE" used the actual MMSE.
@eduggan , @ampiccinin , after 6+ hours on this, the lesson I learn is that if any changes are made outside of the reproducible flow - they are major challenge to get back in. I need to think of better ways of creating a way for you to make these edits: the csv I created to do this was not accomodating the change of the Item name. This is a must-do, in the present form this tranfer of information is not sustainable. Not your fault at all, I just didn't have enough time to design an efficient way of doing it.
On the bright side, this will be recyclable for other papers.
@andkov@ampiccinin Very sorry to do all that work outside of the framework and then hand back all the changes! Just had to do what I could to get the project done. But, yes... hopefully now that we've ironed these structural things out, it will be much easier for the other projects. :)
@eduggan , @ampiccinin@andreazammit
In all studies but EAS, we use "Symbol" instead of "Digtit symbol". The underlying name of the item is identical in all studies. Is this intentional? In other words, is the symbol measure somehow different in EAS from other studies that warrants a differnt name?
This is a big deal structurally too: if a measure gets the same lable in this table it gets its separate row in tables like these:
@eduggan
It seems that a few cognitive tests were omitted, but perhaps intentionally. Here is the complete list of cognitive tests that exist in the physical-cognitive catalog, but have no representation in the pulmonary (or grip, for that matter) spreadsheet. ILSE does not count, because it has no pulmonary or grip physical processes.
However, the measure fluency has not been omitted from ELSA and fig_id from SATSA. Please comment if you remember the specifics on these two.
In the meanwhile I will assume these are errors of omissions and will fill in where missing. Aslso, to be thorough, I will assign labels to ILSE as well, so that we, hopefuly, could use the same domain structure for gait-cognitive track.
This is how I filled in the structure based on my judgement. Please do let me know if something else fits better.
@eduggan@ampiccinin@andreazammit
I believe I have reconstructed the structure of the domains you have imposed in the pulmonary paper. Please take a look to see if you detect any discrepancy.
I have removed tables broken down by gender, it was a specific request from Sean early on and it seems that it is no longer relevant. Besides, filtering by gender is too simple to justify a separate file.
I have added a new format meta which mimics the structure of the spreadsheet @eduggan sent me
the file you need for pulmary is pulmonary-andro-meta.csv
Requestion for action
please let me know if this is not in the format you need.
Yes, the use of symbol across studies is an intentional harmonization choice. There are many versions (revisions and adaptations of this measure used across studies); however, they are all identical measuring the same type of performance. EAS requested me to change the name for the sake of accuracy (to which I have temporarily conceded). We will see what we have to do moving forward. The same issue exists for Raven's (Progressive matrices).
Omitted tests:
I know MMSE was accidentally omitted from the LASA analyses.
I am not sure why verbal fluency (verbal abilities) was omitted from ELSA and figure identification (processing speed) was omitted from SATSA. I don't seem to have results of analyses with these measures.
did ELSA-verbal fluency and SATSA-figureIdentification show up?
Did you receive offline replies from @annierobi or Dgfinkel about these? I see no record of a response here.
Is LASA-MMSE now available?
which of the issues above is "that issue", which is apparently resolved, and are the remaining ones resolved as well?
Are "symbol" and "ravens" naming differences resolved? What needs to happen with this?
I am trying to support AZammit in completing the grip paper, so want to ensure we are not having to re-hash all of these. ..and then there is walking...and cog-cog...
No. I don't think ELSA-verbal fluency (pulmonary) or SATSA figure identification (pulmonary) have been executed.
No, I have not received off-line replies about these from @annierobi or @dgfinkel.
LASA-MMSE is not available to my knowledge.
The "issue" is correcting the test groupings by domains and the domain titles in the "seed tables". The remaining issue is that visual representation of the tests and their domains on the primary page of each study. That has not been corrected.
Please let me know if you need me to do anything to help support you and @andreazammit to finish the grip paper.
Sorry I thought that had been discussed in a separate email and must have
forgotten to add it here. Verbal fluency in Elsa was not measured at each
occasion and so there were too few time points that overlapped with the
physical measure (also not available at each measure). Verbal fluency
descriptives should still be in the descriptives table. You should be able
to see the lack of overlap by looking at the table. I will check tomorrow
morning to make sure I am remembering it correctly.

It appears to me that this structure can be used for all three track.

ILSE should have grip

@ampiccinin , you are rigth. ILSE does have grip. And so should I!

@eduggan , @ampiccinin
I believe this is issue can be closed. I have re-assembled the data tables to match the domain structure from pulmonary manuscript (based on the spreadsheed that @eduggan sent me).
Please refer to https://github.com/IALSA/IALSA-2015-Portland/blob/master/reports/correlation-3/table-data/ as the authoritive source of this information.

Thanks Andrey! These tables look great and I think that issue is resolved: https://github.com/IALSA/IALSA-2015-Portland/blob/master/reports/correlation-3/table-data/.
However, these figures should be updated to match:
