Explanation
This is a flag OPA developed to identify grants or publications that have a form of clinical impact; importantly, this is not limited to articles that are identified as a clinical article/trial/study. This is helpful to see how inputs and outputs of research have translated into the clinical realm, and shows some degree of research productivity. Below are details on what qualifies a grant or publication as having clinical impact.
A grant has clinical impact if at least one of the following is true:
- An award was cited by a clinical trial (CT) that has results (from clinicaltrials.gov)
- The award is linked to a publication that was cited by a CT that has results (from clinicaltrials.gov)
- The award is linked to a publication that is flagged as a clinical article (see full list below)*
- The award is linked to a publication that is flagged as cited by a clinical article
A publication has clinical impact if at least one of the following is true:
- The publication was cited by a clinical trial that has results (from clinicaltrials.gov)
- The publication is a clinical article
- The publication was cited by a clinical article
*The following Publication Type flags from PubMed are used to define clinical articles:
- Clinical Study
- Clinical Trial
- Clinical Trial, Phase I
- Clinical Trial, Phase II
- Clinical Trial, Phase III
- Clinical Trial, Phase IV
- Adaptive Clinical Trial
- Controlled Clinical Trial
- Randomized Controlled Trial
- Clinical Trial Protocol
- Observational Study
- Guideline
- Practice Guideline
