Operations on Cohorts and Visualizations

Delete a Cohort or a Visualization

To delete a set of cohorts, first check the boxes next to the cohorts you wish to delete. The “Trash” button should become selectable after selecting at least one cohort. Click on the “Trash” button to delete the selected cohorts. This is the same for Visualizations

Share a Cohort or a Visualization

To share a set of cohorts, first select the boxes next to the cohorts you wish to share. The “Share” button should become selectable after selecting at least one cohort. Click on the “Share” button to share the selected cohorts. A dialogue box will appear and prompt you to select the users you wish to share with. You will be able to remove cohorts you no longer want to share. You will be able to select from a list of users that are already registered in the system and you may select one or more users you wish to share with. Click the “Share Cohort” button when you are done. This is the same for visualizations.

Note that when you share a cohort with another user, that user will be able to view and comment on the cohort, but will not be able to make changes. If you want to make changes to a cohort that has been shared with you, first clone that cohort.

Set Operations on Cohorts

To activate the set operations button, you must have at least one cohort selected. Upon clicking the “Set Operations” button, a dialogue box will appear. From here you may choose one of the following operations:

  • Enter a name for the resulting cohort you will create
  • Select a set operation
  • Edit cohorts to be operated upon

The intersect and union operations can take any number of cohorts and in any order.

The complement operation requires that there be a base cohort, from which the other cohort(s) will be subtracted.

Click “Okay” to complete the operation and create the new cohort.

Your Cohorts

When the “Cohorts” tab is selected, the system is displaying all the cohorts that you own and all the cohorts that have been shared with you.

Clicking on the name of a cohort in the list will take you to the cohort details and editing page.

Your Visualizations

When the “Visualizations” tab is selected, the system is displaying all the visualizations that you own and all the visualizations that have been shared with you.

Your SeqPeeks

When the “SeqPeek” tab is selected, the system is displaying all the SeqPeek visualizations that you own and all the SeqPeek visualization that have been shared with you.

Searching

To search for cohorts and visualizations by name, you can use the search bar at the top of the page. This will produce a results page of two lists; one for cohorts and one for visualizations. This search only does a string matching with the names of cohorts and visualizations.

Sorting

You can sort the listing of cohorts and visualizations using the column headers. By clicking on a column, it will indicate whether it is sorting that column in ascending order or descending order.
