Description
Return a success proportion using randomized or treated subjects.
Clinical research distinguishes supplied protocol metadata, participant/event records, allocation bookkeeping and an analysis target. A local count, permission flag or denominator choice can help reconcile records without establishing valid consent, randomization, regulatory compliance or a reliable treatment-effect estimate.
Return a success proportion using randomized or treated subjects.
When to use this tool
Use Trial Randomized Treated Denominator Choice when checking the stated clinical-research record, allocation, timing, analysis or evidence-basis convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter randomized, treated, assessed, successes, useRandomized. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read denominator, proportion, unassessedTreated. Use the output convention below.
Return a success proportion using randomized or treated subjects. Require whole randomized >= treated >= 1 and treated >= assessed >= successes >= 0; denominator selects randomized/treated, proportion = successes/denominator, unassessedTreated = treated-assessed.1
An estimand specifies the treatment-effect question, including intercurrent-event handling. Denominator choices and missing-data assumptions must align with that question.2
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| randomized | Randomized | Required. Safe integer; minimum 1. |
| treated | Treated | Required. Safe integer; minimum 1. |
| assessed | Assessed | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| successes | Successes | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| useRandomized | Use Randomized | Required. Boolean. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| denominator | Denominator | Required. Safe integer. |
| proportion | successes divided by the chosen randomized/treated count, not assessed count. | Required. Finite number. |
| unassessedTreated | Unassessed Treated | Required. Safe integer. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This is a supplied denominator convention, not a complete intention-to-treat, missing-data or estimand analysis.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the complete approved protocol, authenticated source records and qualified clinical/statistical oversight for actual trial design, conduct and interpretation.
