Test ADaM data for use with pharmaverse

pharmaverseadam is the pharmaverse's test-data mirror, and it now covers neurology.

pharmaverseclinical-dataadamtest-datar-language
Current state
pharmaverseadam ships pre-built ADaM datasets generated by running the admiral family's own templates, so package authors and trainers have realistic analysis data without writing derivations first. The 1.3.0 release pulls in `ADAPET`, `ADTPET` and `ADNV` from admiralneuro and an anti-drug antibody dataset from admiral itself, and regenerates everything against current versions of seven upstream packages. Variables are now ordered and grouped to ADaM IG structure.
Where it's heading
Coverage tracks the pharmaverse's own therapeutic-area expansion with a lag of one release: pediatrics arrived in 1.1.0, metabolic in 1.2.0, neurology in 1.3.0. The other consistent thread is a slow move off development versions — 1.1.0 and 1.2.0 both had to pin unreleased upstream builds to get working templates, while 1.3.0 cites released versions throughout. Reorganising the reference page by therapeutic area is the same maturation showing up in documentation.
Prediction
Expect the next release to follow the established pattern — a refresh against current upstream versions plus datasets from whichever admiral therapeutic-area package reaches a stable release next.

Recent moves

  1. 5mo ago

    Neurology and anti-drug antibody datasets added

    Brings `ADAPET`, `ADTPET` and `ADNV` across from admiralneuro plus an `ADAB` anti-drug antibody dataset, and regenerates the whole collection against current releases of seven upstream packages. Notably this refresh cites released versions rather than the development builds the previous two releases had to pin.

    Metabolic therapeutic area datasets arrive

    Adds `ADVS`, `ADLB` and `ADCOEQ` from admiralmetabolic and refreshes the rest. The release notes flag their own compromise — three of the upstream packages had to be taken at development versions to get working templates, which is the recurring cost of mirroring a moving ecosystem.

    Pediatric ADVS added in an ad-hoc refresh

    An out-of-cycle release adding `ADVS` from admiralpeds and refreshing against then-current upstream versions, with automatic version bumping activated in CI. The pattern of a therapeutic area entering the mirror one release after it lands upstream starts here.

    1.0 declares the dataset collection stable

    The stability milestone: refreshed datasets from released versions of admiral, admiralophtha, admiralonco and admiralvaccine, with dataset labels aligned to the ADaM IG. Version 1.0 matters here because downstream packages test against these datasets and need them to stop moving unpredictably.

    First release of the ADaM dataset collection

    The initial release, with no detail beyond its existence. It establishes the premise the rest of the history elaborates: run the admiral templates once, centrally, and let everyone else start from the output.
