Collection — Scatterplots

Accessing Scatterplots

When you access a collection, click on the Scatterplots tab to view scatterplots of collection metric data across the scorecards defined for the current collection.

Configuring Scatterplot Settings

Using the dropdowns for the X and Y fields, select the metrics you wish to view from the available list. If a metric that you are looking for does not exist, make sure that it has been defined in one of the scorecards that belong to the collection.
(Optional) Set the Group By field to a custom text or choice metric (or Workspace for Organization Collections). The scatterplot view will update to display different colored points for each group defined by the selected item.

Not seeing the metric you want to analyze?

Here are some reasons why you may not be seeing a particular metric available in one of the metric dropdowns:

The metric is not the right type (numeric vs non-numeric). Only numeric metrics will appear in the X and Y dropdowns. Non-numeric custom metrics like text and choice fields are available to select in the Group By field.
The metric has not been added yet to a collection scorecard. In order for a metric to show up in the X, Y, or Group By field, it must be defined in at least one scorecard that belongs to the collection.

Downloading Scatterplot Data

Download data for the selected metric by clicking the download button in the toolbar above the scatterplot. Your download will be initiated immediately.

Data Drill-down and Patient Highlight

To identify a patient corresponding to a particular point on the scatterplot, click on the point. To identify multiple patients within a rectangular area on the scatterplot, click and drag to create a rectangular selection of data points. The selected patient(s) will appear below the scatterplot in the section titled "Point Selected for Drill-Down Analysis." Double-click on a patient row to inspect the patient.

To determine where a patient falls in the population for the selected metrics, open the patients right sidebar, and click the patient to select it. The point corresponding to the selected patient will be highlighted with a solid black outline.

Selected Patient Actions

Exporting Patients from a Collection

Press the Create New Collection button from the Selected Patients dropdown located in the toolbar above the scatterplot. Please note that this option is not available when viewing an organization collection across all workspaces.
Enter the information for the new collection, and press Create to create the collection.

Adding Selected Patients to an Existing Collection

With one or more points selected from the scatterplot, use the table to select one or more patients from the patients table.
Press the Add to Existing Collection button from the Selected Patients dropdown located in the toolbar above the scatterplot. Please note that this option is not available when viewing an organization collection across all workspaces.
Choose a collection from the list, and press Submit to add the patients.

Note: You must have the Add Collection Patients permission on a collection to add selected patients to that collection.

Using the Correlation Finder

The correlation finder automatically calculates the r values between all pairs of metrics defined across your scorecards (and with 3 or more data points) and displays them in a list. The pairs are sorted by r value in descending order. The Correlation Finder tab is available in the right sidebar when viewing collection scatterplots. Click on one of the correlations to load the metrics for that correlation into the scatterplot.

You may, on occasion, need to refresh the list of correlations. To refresh the list, click on the refresh button located in the Correlation Finder sidebar header.
