Figures & data

Fig. 1 Example of an EpiBasket window (see http://www.epibasket.org for a demonstration).In this example, the user chose the subcategory ‘Travel history’ in the ‘Personal history’ category (left column). Five questions are proposed in this subcategory (middle of the window). If the user is also interested in the related question dealing with ‘past flight history’, clicking on question 4 will open a window giving the reference to the paper with the highest impact factor (IF) in the database that posed that question, and the exact question formulation used in that paper.

Fig. 2 The questionnaire manager in EpiBasket.A user can store and edit his successive questionnaires or drafts of questionnaires listed at the top of the middle panel. Each of the questionnaires is available in pdf (for a paper questionnaire), in csv (for an online survey using the link to LimeSurvey), or in XML (the most generic EpiBasket output). The preview of the questions is available immediately.
