Pedigree validation Clause Samples
Pedigree validation. Before you compute BRCA mutation carrier probabilities and breast/ovarian cancer risks, you must first validate your input pedigree data sets. To do this, press the 'Validate' button on the CONFIRM PEDIGREE DATA VALIDATION Web page (Figure 16). This will initiate a batch processing job that will validate each pedigree data set in your BOADICEA I/E data file one after the other. When the batch job is running, the program will generate a BATCH PROCESSING JOB STATUS Web page (Figure 17) to keep you informed of progress.
Pedigree validation. Before you compute BOADICEA risks, you must first validate your input pedigrees. To do this, press the 'Validate' button on the CONFIRM PEDIGREE DATA VALIDATION Web page (Figure 19). This will initiate a batch processing job that will validate each pedigree data set in your BOADICEA pedigree data file one after the other. When the batch processing job is running, the program will generate a BATCH PROCESSING JOB STATUS Web page (Figure 20) to keep you informed of progress.
Pedigree validation. Before the program computes BOADICEA risks, it validates your pedigree. The pedigree validation module runs checks to ensure (as far as possible) that the input pedigree data set is valid, complete and internally consistent. The program will validate your pedigree whenever you: (1) upload it in a BOADICEA format data file, (2) edit it online and (3) compute BOADICEA risks. If your pedigree includes family members who do not have a valid 'Year of birth' or ‘Age or age at death’, the program will generate an ERROR Web page with the following warning: The program has found an incomplete data record in your pedigree: a family member without cancer is missing a year of birth or age at last follow up. An individual's year of birth and age at last follow up must be specified in order for that person to be included in a calculation. As a result, family members lacking this information will be excluded from the calculation. Press 'OK' to continue. This warning has been included to remind users that these family members will not be taken into account in the risk calculation. If you press the 'OK' function button on this Web page, the program will then submit your pedigree for processing and return a COMPUTED RESULTS Web page (Figure 12).
Pedigree validation. When you process a pedigree online, the BWA program runs tests to search for errors and inconsistencies in your input data. The tests will run at specific times during your session: When you build a pedigree online, the pedigree data set will be validated when you submit the FATHER OF PROBAND Web page for processing. When you upload a BOADICEA I/E data file for processing, the pedigree data set will be validated as soon as it is uploaded to the server. When you edit a pedigree online, the pedigree data will be validated after each edit operation. If the program determines that your requested modification will introduce an error in your pedigree data set, it will cancel the editing operation and restore the original pedigree as it was. Pedigrees are also validated before each BOADICEA risk calculation If the pedigree data set passes validation, the session will continue as normal. Alternatively, if the pedigree data set fails validation, the program will generate an ERROR Web page describing the problem, and then restore the session as it was before the error occurred.
