clinicalcodes's Issues

Catch error if uploaded codes description is > 100 characters

FAQ questions / points that need better explanation

On downloading:

• Codelist error: Not all required headings are present (Or using incorrect delimiter)

Usually means that you are uploading a csv but there are also commas in the body of the text (typically in the description column). Try doing find/replace in excel to replace commas with semi-colons.

Pagination

This is soon going to be a problem

Needs to be done in combination with some kind of search facility

List of options for upload

• Article types
• coding systems
• Entity types

These need to be live so they pick up any new categories as they are added

Track number of downloads for each codelist

Difference between dissociating codelists and removing them

Seems to be a problem with removing codelists that have been associated from other papers.

removing seems to remove from the database, even if the codelist is still associated with another paper.

check with hypertension example from Doran 2011 and Kontopantelis 2014

m2m relationship breaks profile view

Put links to category types in RHS of browse articles page

e.g. research articles, QOF rules etc

also default the model to show the latest articles first

Fix comment duplication

Download all codes as zip file

tack list number onto code list name -- pronto!

code list with more than 3 extra columns

Hello,
I wish to upload a code list with more than 3 extra columns. I understand clinical codes supports 3 max, only? is it possible to overturn this limitation? the other columns are still relevant so it is not an option to just ignore them.
Thanks

Server error (page unavailable) if wrong article_id is entered

e.g. https://clinicalcodes.rss.mhs.man.ac.uk/medcodes/article/47/

Change this to return 404 error instead

e.g. from stackoverflow

from django.http import Http404

def detail(request, poll_id):
    try:
        p = Poll.objects.get(pk=poll_id)
    except Poll.DoesNotExist:
        raise Http404
    return render_to_response('polls/detail.html', {'poll': p})

Can't cope with non-universal newlines

Error: new-line character seen in unquoted field - do you need to open the file in universal-newline mode?

Error on codelist upload

From codelist conversion to Many to many

Get CPRD patient counts for codes

From Evan: It is still almost impossible for reviewers to assess the validity of a code list, unless a major code is missing. Which is where this repository might again help. Especially if counts for unique codes (i.e. X patients uniquely identified with code) are included in the uploaded files. Say you missed a code that doesn’t do anything vs you missed a big one.

It will be a very useful feature if we churn out overall patient counts for each code (which I did in the past in Stata) and unique patient counts.

Improve error messages for misspecified uploads

e.g. Someone tries to upload an excel file, they get:

Sorry, but the requested page is unavailable due to a server problem.
Our engineers have been notified, so please check back later.

link to code lists from other papers

e.g. if you are using exactly the same codelist as another paper

Overly restrictive character count for username

Plus if longer usernames are inputted, it cuts them off without warning.

Reference the article ID in the list_name

The list name in the codelist could include the article ID it is from instead of just the arbitrary list number

Add counter for number of codes uploaded

sever error on non-existent codelist

Returns internal server error when a wrong codelist is provided

Make it return a 404 error

Some links don't work on IE8

From User:

"when I went to try out the website some of the functionality doesn't seem to work. Whilst I can browse the articles, I cannot use some of the links and thus cannot register for an account, view the twitter feed, etc. Is there a minimum browser version that the website supports? We currently have Internet Explorer 8 within the office."

Problem is <IE9 can't deal well with responsive html
