Explore provides access to complete, participant-level data, in addition to aggregate counts.

A: Genomic Filtering. The Genomic Filtering button can be used to apply genomic filters to your cohort selection criteria. For more information about genomic filtering, please refer to the Genomic Filtering section.

B: Actions for filtering and selecting variables.

  • The Filter icon allows you to apply a variable-level filter.

  • The Add Variable icon allows you to add a variable to the dataset. Note that this will not subset the cohort.

C: Prepare for Analysis. Once at least one filter has been added, the Prepare for Analysis button can be used to retrieve participant-level data corresponding to your filters and variable selections. To learn more about the options for retrieving data, please refer to the Prepare for Analysis section.

D: Tool Suite. The Tool Suite contains tools that can be used to explore filtered cohorts of interest. Note that at least one filter must be added to the query before using the Tool Suite.

  • Variable Distributions: View the distributions of query variables based on the filtered cohort. Note that there is a limit to the number of variable distributions that can be viewed at a given time. For categorical variables with more than seven categories included in the query, seven categories will be displayed in the bar chart plus an additional "Other" bar that combines all other categories. Additionally, genomic variables nor variables associated with any-record-of filter (e.g. entire datasets) will not be graphed.
