Main inclusion criteria

Observational studies, surveys, registries, and studies that track incidence, prevalence, morbidity, co-morbidity and mortality including ongoing monitoring of large scale cohorts

 

Advice on research activities

This code is used for observational studies that are descriptive and do not involve characterising the mechanism or establishing the cause of these observations. These are typically population level studies and should only include studies on humans.

Includes studies of large cohorts – but not every study which utilises data from a cohort will fall into this code.
