Description
Audit supplied research visibility flags without periodontal disease assessment.
Dental research records distinguish teeth, surfaces, sites, observations, exclusions, and reporting bases. Measurement resolution and missing observations affect interpretation differently. A chart token, site share, or measurement envelope can check supplied data without establishing a clinical finding.
Audit supplied research visibility flags without periodontal disease assessment.
When to use this tool
Use Periodontal Site Visible Share when you need this site-record, denominator, label, image-scale, or measurement component for supplied research data.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter visible, included. Keep parallel arrays aligned. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read visibleIncluded, includedCount, share, defined. Inspect defined before interpreting the associated values.
Require aligned visible and included flags. Return visibleIncluded, includedCount, and share=visibleIncluded/includedCount when positive, otherwise zero with defined=false.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| visible | Visible | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| included | Included | Required. Array of boolean; maximum items 256. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| visibleIncluded | Visible Included | Required. Safe integer. |
| includedCount | Included Count | Required. Safe integer. |
| share | Dimensionless share under the stated denominator; not a percent numeral. | Required. Finite number. |
| defined | Whether the associated denominator or quantity is defined; read before using a zero placeholder. | Required. Boolean. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- Visibility and inclusion are supplied Boolean annotations. A zero denominator is undefined rather than evidence that no sites were visible, and no image or clinical examination is performed.
- 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.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the intended examination or measurement protocol with verified site identities and source records. Broader interpretation requires actual observations and appropriate measurement properties beyond one token or ratio.
