Data Sharing Policy

Sharing the full data sets underlying the results in manuscript brings many benefits. It enables reuse, reduces research waste, and promotes collaboration.

IJDSDR Journal Data Sharing

IJDSDR Journals require a Data Availability Statement for any submitted research Manuscript. The requirements for data sharing is dependent on the policy the Journal adopts.

IJDSDR has two policies on data sharing:

Stept 1

IJDSDR Journal require that the data generated by your research that supports your manuscript  be made openly and publicly available upon publication of your manuscript.

It is not possible or viable to make data openly available (due to confidentiality or sensitivity issues), they should be shared through a controlled access repository.

Step 2

IJDSDR Journal strongly encourage that data generated by your research manuscript that supports research article be made available as soon as possible.

IJDSDR require data from clinical trials to be made available upon reasonable request.

Data Availability Statement

IJDSDR  Journals require a Data Availability Statement for any submitted research articles. On submission, authors are asked to select at least one of the standardised Data Availability Statements text options below in bold as applicable and to supplement these statements with additional information as noted in the guidance below:

Recommendations - ICMJE Guidline

These statements will be published under the header ‘Data Availability Statement’ within the footnotes section of the final published article.

1. Data are available in a public, open access repository.

2. Data are available upon reasonable request.

3. Data may be obtained from a third party and are not publicly available.

4. All data relevant to the study are included in the article or uploaded as supplementary information.

5. Data sharing not applicable as no datasets generated and/or analysed for this study.

How to Cite Data

All data that are publicly available and used in the writing of an article should be cited in the text and the reference list – whether they are data generated by the author(s) or by other researchers.

Example:

Name of All Authors , "Name of Article Title", IJDSDR - September - October - 2022, Volume 1 , Issue -1, P.No. 01 - 05

How to Share Data

For clinical data (Individual Participant Data) IJDSDR request that use controlled access repositories, Such as clinicalstudydatarequest.com.

Please see this Article for current practical guidance on clinical trial data sharing.

For Preclinical data IJDSDR recommend using recognised subject - specific repositories such as GenBank, Where relevant and availble.

What Data should be shared

IJDSDR encourage, To make available as musch of the underlying data from Article as possible (without compromising participant privacy), But at least the minimum data required to reproduce the results presented in the associated article.

Consider ant files generated by Authors research as consituting relevant data, This may be raw or processed data such as included but are not limited to:

1. Individual level  indentified patient data

2. Survey result

3. Statistical Data

4. Image

5. Text Files

How to Access data

Data access that is available upon request. E-Mail the Corresponding Authors or Main Author for the  Research Article to request the relevant data.
