For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Supervised Aerobic Exercise | Patients will attend 3 supervised group aerobic exercise sessions per week for 16 weeks. On the basis of peak heart rate achieved during the initial treadmill test, patients are assigned training ranges equivalent to 70% to 85% maximal heart rate reserve. Each aerobic session will consist of 30 min of walking or jogging on a treadmill at an intensity that would maintain heart rate within the assigned training range. | None | None | 0 | 37 | 0 | 37 | View |
| Sertraline (Zoloft) | Participants are given the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor sertraline. Medications are taken once daily; the dosage depends on the clinical response, but usually, each patient will start at 50 mg (1 pill) of drug and progress up to 200 mg (4 pills), contingent on therapeutic response and the presence of side effects. | None | None | 0 | 40 | 0 | 40 | View |
| Placebo Control | Participants are given a matching placebo. Medications are taken once daily; the dosage depends on the clinical response, but usually, each patient will start at 50 mg (1 pill) of placebo and progress up to 200 mg (4 pills), contingent on therapeutic response and the presence of side effects. | None | None | 0 | 24 | 0 | 24 | View |
