Database Systems and Biostatistics

适当开发和管理电子数据库是研究的关键要求，而基于网络的数据仓库和工具对于多学科小组跟踪来自不同来源的研究数据尤为重要。分析专业知识为该项目提供对恰加斯病生物标志物的新见解的能力奠定了基础。数据库和生物统计核心将开发和维护一个研究数据库，该数据库将汇编Sami-trop项目收集的临床和实验室数据，并监测数据质量。研发将有一个模块化的架构，允许每个项目和子项目的数据输入和访问，以及整合所有项目的结果。一个安全的访问研究网站将允许数据共享进程，将支持流行病学综合和对收集的信息进行统计分析，并将便利传播该方案的结果；

Properly developed and managed electronic databases are key requirements for research and web-based data warehouses and tools are particularly important for multidisciplinary groups to keep track of study data from different sources. Analytical expertise underpins the ability of this project to provide new insights into Chagas disease biomarkers. The Database and Biostatistics Core will develop and maintain a Research Database (RD) that will compile the clinical and laboratory data collected by the SAMI-Trop project and monitor data quality. The RD will have a modular architecture to allow for data entry and access for each project and sub-projects, as well as intregation of findings from all projects. A secure access study website will allow for data sharing process, will support epidemiological synthesis and statistical analysis of the information collected, and will faciliate dissemination of the findings of the program;
