The Cleveland Institute for Computational Biology and Case Western Reserve University is thrilled to announce that they will be hosting the upcoming F2F meeting in Cleveland, OH.
What happens when collaborators from across the OHDSI community come together? We run a study!
BUT this time we DOCUMENT every step along the way, so it is a “Doc-A –Thon” basically!
The Goal of this F2F is to generate documentation, produce material to share with the OHDSI community and integrate all of this in “The Book of OHDSI”.
We want to increase the accessibility to the OHDSI tools by providing some kind of “step by step” instructions on how to run a study in the OHDSI community, it’ll look like this:
Step #1: Explore the OHDSI vocabulary
Step #2: Create cohorts
Step #3: Produce negative controls, perform empirical calibration
Step #4: Make the analytic design choices
Step #5: Explore the R packages available and determine the appropriate (Prepare the R package)
Step #6: Run the Cohort characterization
Step #7: Run the Patient Level prediction
Step #8: Run the Population level estimation results
Step #9: Interpret the Cohort characterization results
Step #10: Interpret the Patient Level prediction results
Step #11: Interpret the Population level estimation results
Step #12: Set up a network study
The attendees will be divided into groups responsible for a different step. Within these groups, one part of the attendees will be responsible to execute the step and the other part, in parallel, will be responsible to document the process.
Not sure if you should attend? If one of the following statements applies to you, we’d encourage you to register:
- You are passionate about documentation.
- You want to contribute to the OHDSI community by creating “Step by Step” documentation material that will be widely shared.
- You want to learn and dive into the details of how to execute one or more of these steps.
- You want to document the process.
- You want to use the OHDSI tools to run the study.
- You want to be the coordinator of one or more of these steps.
- You want to share your knowledge with others.
- You want to visit Cleveland!

Topic: Hypertension
Specific questions to address:
Phenotype Problems:
- Find patients who initiate ACE inhibitor monotherapy as first-line treatment for hypertension
- Find patients who initiate thiazide diuretic monotherapy as first-line treatment for hypertension
- Find acute myocardial infarction events
- Find angioedema events Characterization problem: Compare baseline characteristics (demographics, prior conditions/drugs/procedures) between (a) patients who initiate ACE inhibitor monotherapy as first-line treatment for hypertension and (b) patients who initiate thiazide diuretic monotherapy as first-line treatment for hypertension.
Incidence Problem:
- Amongst patients who initiate (a) first-line ACE inhibitor monotherapy or (b) thiazide diuretic monotherapy
- What proportion will develop (a) acute myocardial infarction, and (b) angioedema in next year following exposure?
Estimation problem:
- To compare the hazards of (a) acute myocardial infarction and (b) angioedema between the target cohort of patients who initiate first-line ACE inhibitor monotherapy and the comparator cohort of patients who initiate first-line thiazide diuretic monotherapy during the time-at-risk from 1 day after exposure start until end of continuous
exposure (e.g. ‘on treatment’).
Prediction problem:
- Amongst patients who initiate first-line ACE inhibitor monotherapy, which go on to develop (a) acute myocardial infarction, and (b) angioedema in next year following exposure?
The 2019 F2F will take place at Case Western Reserve University, Wolstein Research Building located at 2103 Cornell Rd, Cleveland, OH 44106. Directions are available here:
