<suggestions xmlns="http://eprints.org/ep2/data/2.0">2026-08-11 MMD Data deposit to underpin a publication. Deposit form saved. Consent and PIS forms saved in Z drive and uploaded to record. Data can be controlled access (may also be an open folder).  Data files to follow.&#13;
Need to confirm if joint copyright with Tartous is appropriate - author has been asked about this. Link to article not yet possible. Add link to code in zenodo when available as related resources. Author has also been advised to contact RGI team to find out if a trusted research review is necessary and advise on removal of participant identifiers in final dataset. Standard controlled access T&amp;C and DSA should be fine.&#13;
&#13;
2026-08-12 JB reply from author. Under Tartous policy the research remains the researchers work. There was no clause in employment contract assigning intellectual property arising from my research to the University.  Vice-President of Tartous University for Scientific Affairs has confirmed the author is entitled to use the research data in full and that Tartous University does not claim intellectual-property ownership over this work.&#13;
Zenodo code is currently being prepared. Trusted research author has submitted an enquiry to University of Glasgow Research Governance and Integrity team.   Author will document participant identifiers in README file.&#13;
&#13;
2026-06-13 Email from author - He has sent an email from compliance support &amp; confirmed  the proposed deposit does not engage UK export controls or the remaining UK sanctions measures relating to Syria.  Have saved the email as 2400a&#13;
&#13;
2026-08-27 GA Author has sent final dataset, It has been changed &amp; author is asking if it should still be controlled access. Checking with Mary. Mary has confirmed to stay as controlled. Have saved file to Z drive, WinScp &amp; Arkivum. Have added  Zenodo link for code. - https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22121607. Have confirmed with author that data will still be controlled.&#13;
&#13;
2026-08-28 LTW Author asked for record to be made live. No readme file, no confirmation of user agreement since data were changed to pseudonymous. Checking with MSM, emailed author. - Author confirmed that user agreement meets requirements but noted that the project-specific condition specified in deposit form remain part of the access conditions. *The data should not be used to develop or validate an operational clinical screening or diagnostic tool without further appropriate ethical approval.* Saved email as 2400b. Added readme file to record and Z drive. Checking with MSM before making record live.&#13;
&#13;
2026-08-31 AA After discussion with MSM record made live as a closed deposit in meantime and DOI coined. User request data button turned off in meantime. Can be turned on again once a bespoke user license agreement is provided.</suggestions>
