Research tools

These sophisticated, interactive, and open-source applications demonstrate how openFDA APIs can be used for epidemiological research.

Dashboard of drug adverse event reports

This app brings together multiple UI elements—including charts and word clouds—to explore the whole space of adverse event reports. Concomitant drugs, common indications, and the nature of event reports can all be explored for the entire dataset or for custom searches.

https://openfda.shinyapps.io/RR_D/ Drugs

PRR Drug

This app uses the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) to show how common given adverse reactions are for a certain drug, compared with all other drugs. It can guide inquiry into the adverse reactions more likely to be associated with a given drug.

https://openfda.shinyapps.io/RR_E/ Drugs

PRR Event

This app uses the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) to show which drugs are more likely to be associated with a particular adverse reaction, compared with all other drugs. It can guide inquiry into drugs most likely to be associated with a given reaction.

https://openfda.shinyapps.io/dynprr/ Drugs

Dynamic PRR

This app uses the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) to show how much more commonly associated a particular reaction is with a particular drug, over time, compared with other drugs.

https://openfda.shinyapps.io/ChangePoint/ Drugs

Change point analysis for adverse event reports

This app shows changes over time in the average number of reports for particular drug and adverse reaction combinations. It can guide inquiry into increased or decreased adverse event reports, of particular reactions, or of particular drugs being reported.
