Description: Non-interventional design refers to a [RESOURCE] that does not aim to alter its outcomes
of interest. Interventional design refers to a [RESOURCE] that aims to alter its outcomes
of interest.
(1) A study that does not aim to alter study outcomes of interest; (2) A study in
which the assignment of the patient to a particular therapeutic strategy is not decided
in advance by a trial protocol but falls within current practice and the prescription
of the medicine is clearly separated from the decision to include the patient in the
study [NCI (GitHub -
NCI-Thesaurus/thesaurus-obo-edition: OBO Library edition of NCIt), NFDI4Health].
code "C142615" (Non-Interventional Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"

code "C15197" (Case-Control Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Nested case-control
(1) A study in which a group or cohort of individuals is followed for a certain length
of time or until a specific outcome is reached. Studies of this type incorporate the
strengths of both cohort and case-control studies but eliminates a portion of the
methodologic challenges inherent in both types of studies; (2) For each identified
case one or more
controls are selected, which are still under observation in a cohort study at the
time when the case developed the disease of interest [NCI (GitHub - NCI-Thesaurus/thesaurus-obo-edition:
OBO Library edition of NCIt)].
code "C48202" (Nested Case-control Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
code "C127779" (Observational Case-Crossover Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Ecologic or community studies
Geographically defined populations, such as countries or regions within a country,
compared on a variety of environmental (for example, air pollution intensity, hours
of sunlight) and/or global measures not reducible to individual level characteristics
(for example, healthcare system, laws or policies median income, average fat intake,
disease rate)

code "C15407" (Family Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Twin study
Twin studies measure the contribution of genetics (as opposed to environment) to a
given trait or condition of interest [MIABIS (https://github.com/BBMRI-ERIC/miabis)].
code "D018433" (Twin Studies as Topic) from code system "MeSH"
Cohort
(1) Group of individuals, initially defined and composed, with common characteristics
(for example, condition, birth year), who are examined or traced over a given time
period; (2) Data collected over time from the same cohort of respondents. The individuals
in the cohort are connected in some way or have shared some significant experience
within a given
period. In some cases, the samples may differ between waves but are drawn from the
same cohort. Examples: birth year, disease (clinical trials), common problem (intervention
studies), education, employment, family formation, participation in an event; (3)
A form of longitudinal study for the analysis of risk factors following a group of
people who do not
have a disease, and uses correlations to determine the absolute risk of subject contraction
[CT.gov (https://prsinfo.clinicaltrials.gov/definitions.html, https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/about-studies/glossary), MIABIS (https://github.com/BBMRI-ERIC/miabis), DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "C15208" (Cohort Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Case-cohort
A random subcohort from the overall cohort is picked and all cases (either within
this random subcohort or outside) will be selected as well. Also a suitable design
for the investigation of several diseases in parallel.
code "004" (Case-cohort studies) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Birth cohort
A cohort study for which the subjects are followed from the time of birth usually
including information about gestation and follow up [MIABIS (https://github.com/BBMRI-ERIC/miabis)].
code "D015331" (Birth Cohort Study) from code system "MeSH"
Trend
Data are collected from different samples or different groups of people from the same
population at several points in time, using at least partly the same set of questions/variables.
Conclusions are drawn for the population. Examples: European Social Survey (ESS),
national longitudinal crime surveys [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "005" (Trend) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Panel
Data are collected over time from, or about, the same sample of respondents. Differs
from cohort data in that the selection of respondents is not based on their being
connected in some way or having shared some significant experience [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "C53311" (Panel Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Longitudinal
(1) Data collected repeatedly over time to allow studying change in a population.
At least some of the questions or modules are repeated over waves. Use the broad term
when none of the subterms is suitable; (2) Research studies involving repeated observations
of the same entity over time. In the biobank context, longitudinal studies sample
a group of
people in a given time period, and study them at intervals by the acquisition and
analyses of data and/or samples over time [MIABIS (https://github.com/BBMRI-ERIC/miabis), DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "C15273" (Longitudinal Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"

or a
representative subset, at one specific point in time [MIABIS (https://github.com/BBMRI-ERIC/miabis), DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "C53310" (Cross-Sectional Study) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Cross-section ad-hoc follow-up
Data are collected at one point in time to complete information collected in a previous
cross-sectional study; the decision to collect follow-up data was not included in
the original study design [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "006" (Cross-section ad-hoc follow-up) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Time series
Data are collected repeatedly over time to study change in observations. These are
typically "objective" measurements of phenomena that can be observed externally, as
opposed to attitudes/opinions or feelings. Examples may include economic/financial
indicators, natural/meteorological phenomena, vital statistics, etc. [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/TimeMethod_1.2.html)].
code "C181915" (Time Series) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"

All units (individuals, households, organizations, etc.) of a target population have
a non-zero probability of being included in the sample and this probability can be
accurately determined. Use this broader term if a more specific type of probability
sampling is not known or is difficult to identify [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "034" (Probability Sampling Method) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Non-probability
The selection of units (individuals, households, organizations, etc.) from the target
population is not based on random selection. It is not possible to determine the probability
of each element to be sampled. Use this broader term if the specific type of non-probability
is not known, difficult to identify, or if multiple non-probability methods are being
employed [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C127781" (Non-Probability Sampling Method) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Mixed probability and non-probability
Sample design that combines probability and non-probability sampling within the same
sampling process. Different types of sampling may be used at different stages of creating
the sample. For example, for a sample of minority students in a city, schools are
randomly selected in the first stage. Then, a quota sample of students is selected
within each
school in the second stage. If separate samples are drawn from the same target population
using different sampling methods, the type of sampling procedure used for each sample
should be classified separately [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "035" (Mixed Probability and Non-Probability Sampling Method) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Total universe/Complete enumeration
All units (individuals, households, organizations, etc.) of a target population are
included in the data collection. For example, if the target population is defined
as the members of a trade union, all union members are invited to participate in the
study. Also called "census" if the entire population of a regional unit (e.g. a country)
is selected [DDI
(https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].

Not applicable
The sampling procedure is not applicable [NFDI4Health].
code "C48660" (Not Applicable) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
A probability-based method. All units of a target population have an equal probability
of being included in the sample. Typically, the entire population is listed in a "sample
frame", and units are then chosen from this frame using a random selection method
[DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C53196" (Simple Random Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Systematic random
A probability-based method. A fixed selection interval is determined by dividing the
population size by the desired sample size. A starting point is then randomly drawn
from the sample frame, which normally covers the entire target population. From this
starting point, units for the sample are chosen based on the selection interval. Also
known as interval
sampling. For example, a company survey seeks a sample of 1,000 employees out of 10,000
total. Beginning with a random starting number, every 10th name from the employee
list of the company will be invited to participate in the study [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C53200" (Systematic Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Stratified
A probability-based method. The target population is subdivided into separate and
mutually exclusive segments (strata) that cover the entire population. Independent
random samples are then drawn from each segment. For example, in a national public
opinion survey the entire population is divided into two regional strata: East and
West. After this, sampling
units are drawn from within each region using simple or systematic random sampling.
Use this broader term if the specific type of stratified sampling is not known or
difficult to identify [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71516" (Stratified Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Stratified: Proportional
A probability-based method. The target population is subdivided into separate and
mutually exclusive segments (strata) that cover the entire population. In proportional
stratified sampling the number of elements chosen from each stratum is proportional
to the population size of the stratum when viewed against the entire population. For
example, a country
is divided into two regional strata that comprise 80 percent (West) and 20 percent
(East) of the total population. For a sample of 1,000 people, 800 (i.e., 80 percent)
would be drawn from the West and 200 (i.e., 20 percent) from the East to accurately
represent their proportion in the total population [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71498" (Proportional Stratified Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Stratified: Disproportional
A probability-based method. The target population is subdivided into separate and
mutually exclusive segments (strata) that cover the entire population. In disproportional
sampling the number of units chosen from each stratum is not proportional to the population
size of the stratum when viewed against the entire population. The number of sampled
units
from each stratum can be equal, optimal, or can reflect the purpose of the study,
like oversampling of different subgroups of the population. For example, a country
is divided into two regional strata that comprise 80 percent (West) and 20 precent
(East) of the country's population. If equal representation of the two regions is
needed in a study, half
the sample may be drawn from the West and half from the East, so that each region
is represented by 50 percent of the sample. If a more detailed analysis of the population
from the East is needed, 40 percent of the units may be drawn from the West and 60
percent from the East, so that the East is over-represented [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71497" (Disproportional Stratified Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Cluster
A probability-based method. The target population is divided into naturally occurring
segments (clusters) and a probability sample of the clusters is selected. Data are
then collected from all units within each selected cluster. Sampling is often clustered
by geography, or time period. Use this broader term if a more specific type of cluster
sampling is
not known or is difficult to identify [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "126" (Cluster) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Cluster: Simple random
A probability-based method. The target population is divided into naturally occurring
segments (clusters) and a simple random sample of the clusters is selected. Data are
then collected from all units within each selected cluster. For example, for a sample
of students in a city, a number of schools would be chosen using the random selection
method, and
then all of the students from every sampled school would be included [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "127" (Cluster - Simple random) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Cluster: Stratified random
A probability-based method. The target population is divided into naturally occurring
segments (clusters); next, these are divided into mutually exclusive strata and a
random sample of clusters is selected from each stratum. Data are then collected from
all units within each selected cluster. For example, for a sample of students in a
city, schools would
be divided into two strata by school type (private vs. public); schools would be then
randomly selected from each stratum, and all of the students from every sampled school
would be included [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "128" (Cluster - Stratified random) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Multistage
A probability-based method. Sampling is carried out in stages using smaller and smaller
units at each stage, and all stages involve a probability selection. The type of probability
sampling procedure may be different at each stage. For example, for a sample of students
in a city, schools are randomly selected in the first stage. A random sample of classes
within each selected school is drawn in the second stage. Students are then randomly
selected from each of these classes in the third stage [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71515" (Multi-Stage Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
A non-probability-based method. The target population is subdivided into separate
and mutually exclusive segments according to some predefined quotation criteria. The
distribution of the quotation criteria (gender/age/ethnicity ratio, or other characteristics,
like religion, education, etc.) is intended to reflect the real structure of the target
population or the structure of the desired study population. Non-probability samples
are then drawn from each segment until a specific number of units has been reached.
For example, if the target population consists of 45 percent females and 55 percent
males, a proportional quota sample will have the same gender percentages, while in
a non-proportional
quota sample the percentages will be different, based on some study-related consideration
(for instance, the need to oversample for certain under-represented segments of the
population) [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71504" (Quota Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Respondent-assisted
A non-probability-based method. Sample units are identified from a target population
with the assistance of units already selected (adapted from "Public Health Research
Methods", ed. Greg Guest, Emily E. Namey, 2014). A typical case is snowball sampling,
in which the researcher identifies a group of units that matches a particular criterion
of
eligibility. The latter are asked to recruit other members of the same population
that fulfil the same criterion of eligibility (sampling of specific populations like
migrants, etc.) [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "008" (Respondent-driven sampling) from code system "NFDI4Health_CS_MDS_Remaining_Concepts"
Purposive
A non-probability-based method. Sample units are specifically identified, selected
and contacted for the information they can provide on the researched topic. Selection
is based on different characteristics of the independent and/or dependent variables
under study, and relies on the researchers' judgement. The study authors, or persons
authorized by them
have control over the sample selection mechanism and the universe is defined in terms
of the selection criteria. Also called "judgement" sampling. For example, a medical
researcher may intentionally select individuals who are similar in most respects,
except on the outcome of the research topic, which can be a specific disease. Some
types of purposive
sampling are typical/deviant case, homogeneous/maximum variation, expert, or critical
case sampling [DDI (https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
code "C71505" (Matched Sampling) from code system "FDA RouteOfAdministration"
Availability
A non-probability-based method. The sample selection is based on the units' accessibility/relative
ease of access. They may be easy to approach, or may themselves choose to participate
in the study (self-selection). Researchers may have particular target groups in mind
but they do not control the sample selection mechanism. For example, students leaving
a
particular building on campus may be approached, or individuals may volunteer to participate
in response to invitations that do not target them specifically, but a larger group
to which they may belong. Also called "convenience" or "opportunity" sampling [DDI
(https://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CV/SamplingProcedure_1.1.html)].
