Title types

Studies have a scientific (full or protocol) title, and some data objects, such as journal articles, also have explicit titles. In many cases either studies or data objects can also have alternative or additional titles. The system keeps these in the database so that they can be used in searches, and they are categorised using the title types listed in this table.
