Curated launch collection

Real datasets, formatted for the Studio

These files were curated from the openly distributed metadat collection. ERN Institute reformatted them for compatibility but does not claim ownership of the original observations.

BCG vaccination and tuberculosis

Thirteen studies comparing tuberculosis-positive cases in vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups.

Medicine13 effectsLog odds ratio

Source: Colditz et al. (1994), distributed as dat.colditz1994 in metadat. ERN calculated group totals from the original event and non-event counts.

Medicine9 effectsHedges g

Source: Normand (1999), distributed as dat.normand1999. Original means, standard deviations, and sample sizes are retained; negative effects favor specialized care.

Transparent provenance

What ERN changed and what it did not

ERN-ready files retain the source observations. Preparation is limited to schema mapping, stable effect identifiers, compatible group totals where required, and explanatory notes. The Studio may produce different results from a publication when the original analysis used another effect-size measure, model, estimator, continuity correction, or inference method.

The launch collection is redistributed under GPL-2.0-or-later, matching the metadat source package. Cite both metadat and the original publication listed on each source page.
