Description
Label a supplied floor/ceiling censoring convention.
Assay records separate concentration/effect units, control references, censoring and model parameters. An occupied/free complement assumes one common exhaustive total, while a control ratio is not automatically a percentage effect. Labels and local scalar operations do not fit a response model or establish potency, drug efficacy or an appropriate medication choice.
Label a supplied floor/ceiling censoring convention.
When to use this tool
Use PD Ceiling Floor Censoring Label when you already have recordId, censoring and need to label a supplied floor/ceiling censoring convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter recordId, censoring. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require recordId nonempty and censoring none, floor, ceiling, both or unspecified; format ID [censoring].1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| recordId | Record Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| censoring | Censoring | Required. Text; one of "none", "floor", "ceiling", "both", "unspecified"; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| label | Label | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |

"input": {
"recordId": "R17",
"censoring": "floor"
},
"output": {
"label": "R17 [floor]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No censoring boundary, latent value, endpoint validity or pharmacological effect is inferred.
- 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 full assay controls, measurement units and response-model definition when estimating an effect. Fit or evaluate the intended concentration-response relationship explicitly; a control ratio, complement or parameter label does not infer that relationship.
