signs or sintoms at the beginning of the study Explanation: In this context "baseline" means at the beginning of the study. BASELINE: 1) Information gathered at the beginning of a study from which variations found in the study are measured. 2) A known value or quantity with which an unknown is compared when measured or assessed. 3) The initial time point in a clinical trial, just before a participant starts to receive the experimental treatment which is being tested. At this reference point, measurable values such as CD4 count are recorded. Safety and efficacy of a drug are often determined by monitoring changes from the baseline values.
