📊 Introduction to Atlas Platform's Data Sources Tool

This paragraph introduces the 'Data Sources' tool within the Atlas platform, which is accessible through the first menu option on the left-hand side. Users can select a data source and a report from a dropdown menu, revealing available observational databases configured in their Atlas environment. Two sources, 'source 1' and 'source 2', are presented as examples. The speaker selects 'source 1' and proceeds to explore standardized reports such as dashboard data, density, person visits, condition occurrences, and various other metrics related to medical data observation. The dashboard report for 'source 1' is then demonstrated, showing tables and graphs that provide insights into the data.

Keywords

💡Atlas platform

The Atlas platform is the central focus of the video, serving as a data management and analytics tool. It is a software environment where users can configure and access various observational databases. The script mentions it as the place where data sources can be selected and reports generated, indicating its role in facilitating data analysis and visualization.

💡Data sources

Data sources refer to the origins of the data that are being analyzed within the Atlas platform. In the script, data sources are mentioned as the first menu option, which allows users to select from different observational databases configured within their Atlas environment. The concept is integral to the video's theme as it sets the stage for the type of data that will be explored and analyzed.

💡Standardized reports

Standardized reports are pre-defined templates or formats that users can select to generate data summaries within the Atlas platform. The script lists several types of standardized reports such as dashboard, data density, and condition occurrence, which are used to present data in a structured and easily interpretable manner, enhancing the understanding of the data.

💡Dashboard

A dashboard in the context of the video is a type of standardized report that consolidates various data visualizations and metrics into a single view. The script describes how selecting the dashboard report for source 1 presents a series of tables and graphs, providing an overview of the data, which is crucial for quickly grasping key insights from the data.

💡Observational databases

Observational databases are collections of data that are gathered by observing and recording information, often without manipulating or controlling variables. The script mentions that these databases are configured within the Atlas environment, and they contain data that can be analyzed to understand patterns, trends, and behaviors.

💡Gender breakdown

Gender breakdown is a demographic analysis that categorizes data by gender. In the script, it is used to describe how the population in source 1 is divided between males and females, with different color codings in a donut plot. This helps in understanding the distribution and representation of different genders within the database.

💡Age at first observation

Age at first observation is a metric that indicates the age of individuals when they were first recorded in the database. The script describes a histogram that presents age on the x-axis and the number of people on the y-axis, showing how the population is distributed across different age groups upon their initial entry into the database.

💡Cumulative observation

Cumulative observation refers to the total amount of time individuals have been observed within the database. The script explains a graph that shows the distribution of the time observed with the number of years on the x-axis and the percentage of the population on the y-axis, providing insights into the duration of data collection for each individual.

💡Continuous observation

Continuous observation is the ongoing monitoring and recording of data over time. The script mentions a graph that shows the number of persons with continuous observation by month, indicating the stability and size of the observed population over a given period, which can be traced back to 2000 up to October 2018 in the example provided.

💡Odyssey

Odyssey is the organization or platform that provides the Atlas tool and additional resources for data analysis. The script ends with an invitation to visit odyssey.org for more information, suggesting that Odyssey offers further details and support for using the Atlas platform and understanding the data sources and reports.

today we're going to dive in to the data

sources tool within the Atlas platform

data sources is the first menu option on

the left-hand side and if you click data

sources you'll be presented with the

option to select a source and select a

report clicking on the drop-down for

selecting a source will show you all of

the available observational data bases

that you have configured within your

Atlas environment here we see two data

sources provided source 1 and source 2

I'm going to select source 1 from there

we can select a series of standardized

reports that are available within the

data sources function including

dashboard data density person visit

condition occurrence condition era

procedure date ex drug exposure drug era

measurement observation death an

Achilles heel let's take a look here

I've selected source ones dashboard

report and we can see a series of tables

and graphs are presented on the screen

let's walk through the information

provided on the dashboard our first

information provides us the source name

and the number of persons in the

database here we can see that source 1

contains 80 5.8 million patients on the

right hand side we can see that

population broken down by gender we can

see males and females in different color

codings on this donut plot here we can

see by hovering over that there are 43

million patients who are females that

represents 50 point 5 percent of the

population the next graph on the

dashboard shows us age at first

observation in this histogram presents

age on the x-axis and the number of

people on the y-axis and if I hover over

any of the particular bar x' we can see

the exact number of people that belong

to that group so in this particular

database we can see that patients that

are newly born represent 3 million

patients in this database we can see

that there seems to be an increase in

the number of people who are entered

this database in their early 20s and

there seems to be a spike in this

database

age 65 the next graph down is the

cumulative observation graph and here we

can see a distribution of amount of time

observed in a database with the number

of years on the x-axis in the percent of

the population on the y-axis hovering

over any particular plot on this graph

reveals information about what data

point I'm looking at so here we can see

amongst this database 42 percent of the

patients in this database are observed

in the data for two years or more and if

I go further we can see that five

percent of the population is in this

database for eight years or more the

last graph on the dashboard is persons

with continuous observation by month and

here we can see the x-axis showing us

the calendar month and the y-axis

showing us the number of persons so for

any given calendar month if I hover over

we can see the number of people who were

continuously observed within that

calendar month this database has

information from back from 2000 all the

way through October of 2018 and in any

given month we can explore to see that

the number of people with that belong to

that month and the stability of the

population over time so this was a

summary of the dashboard report for more

information on odyssey including

additional details of using atlas and
