A stratification method based on clustering for the minimization of data masking effect in signal detection
Abstract Background Data masking is an inborn defect of measures of disproportionality in adverse drug reactions (ADRs) signal detection. Many previous studies can be roughly classified into three categories: data removal, regression and stratification. However, frequency differences of adverse drug...
