Possible confusion with Connecticut's https://portal.ct.gov/.
ChatGPT answers with ClinicalTrials.gov for "In the context of life science databases, ontologies, and other resources, what does ctgov stand for?"
@dhimmel thank you for the contribution, the new URI format is great. Can you give me an example where you encountered ctgov as a prefix?

I don't know if I've seen it as a CURIE prefix anywhere, but I think it is common to use in column names like ctgov_id
. Also when writing ClinicalTrials.gov, people will often abbreviate it as CT.gov
or CT-gov
. Searching via pubmed, about 25-30 publications do this per year. Admittedly that is low compared to the 20k articles that mention ClinicalTrials.gov per year.
Partly this addition is motivated by the existing prefixes at https://bioregistry.io/registry/clinicaltrials being somewhat unsatisfactory, where clinicaltrials
looks out of place as a prefix in the Clinical Trial Registries collection. This change is a potential gateway into a future changing the preferred prefix to ctgov
, which could be evaluated in the future based on adoption of the ctgov
prefix.
Also interested in whether anyone knows someone more involved with CT.gov data that could advise? Tagging @micronix in case they have any insights here (I see they are a recent contributor to https://github.com/ctti-clinicaltrials/aact).
If you're referring to the giant AACT schema it looks like it uses both nct
and ctgov
.
All good on my end, so merge away. More feedback still welcome, but can always make changes later if anything is actionable.
