The OHDSI Development Set - Negative Controls A set of 76 negative control outcomes, all for the exposures of ACE inhibitors (compared to thiazides and thiazide-like diuretics). This set is a much small set than the he OHDSI Method Evaluation Benchmark, but follows the same principles. It is intended to be used when developing methods, leaving the Methods Benchark untouched until a final evaluation of the method, thus preventing 'training' on the evaluation set. The negative controls are borrowed from the LEGEND Hypertension study. The exposure, outcome, and nesting cohorts can be created using the createReferenceSetCohorts function. These negative controls can form the basis to generate positive controls using the injectSignals function.
