Clinical trials

[DataMedFeedback]

When I click on Clinical Trials.gov from here https://datamed.org/repository_list.php I am only given 3854 results but there are over 26000 result in clinicaltrials.gov which have results. What are you actually pulling in?

Only publicly available datasets are indexed (checking for dataset.available=True in the transformed document before indexing).

We certainly wanted to filter clinical trials.gov for those trials that have data. But Datamed also has the capability to record accessibility metadata for a dataset. Do the options for "accessibility" include options that could be assigned to the clinical trials.gov datasets which are not publicly available. That would allow the larger set (>26000) to be imported.

Here's an example of a dataset from another repository where the data do not appear to be publicly accessible - but the requirements for access are provided. https://datamed.org/display-item.php?repository=0061&id=58dc290a5152c678ad50d62a&query=a[Dimension]
