Aim of the syudy:
Aim of the study. An image has the power to
facilitate comprehensibility of complex data. The
aim of this paper is to discuss chart selection
in medicine, dentistry and health sciences
articles, increasing data comprehension and
memorization.
Methods:
Design, mathematical, statistics,
health, and technology papers, books and
websites were used to best describe data
visualization through graphic use. Authors
searched MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and grey
literature for chart styles and which one best
suits specific data. Some articles were included
as examples.
Results:
Some principles of data visualization
were discussed. Chart types (comparison,
combination, distribution and relationship) were
clarified, and a practical guide of selection was
performed. Colours option and some aesthetic
aspects were considered.
Conclusions:
An appropriate chart selection
is extremely useful to researchers and readers,
making data more assimilable.
