teal Module: Events by Term

Source: R/tm_t_events.R
tm_t_events.Rd

This module produces a table of events by term.

Usage 

tm_t_events(
  label,
  dataname,
  parentname = ifelse(inherits(arm_var, "data_extract_spec"),
    teal.transform::datanames_input(arm_var), "ADSL"),
  arm_var,
  hlt,
  llt,
  add_total = TRUE,
  total_label = default_total_label(),
  na_level = tern::default_na_str(),
  event_type = "event",
  sort_criteria = c("freq_desc", "alpha"),
  sort_freq_col = total_label,
  prune_freq = 0,
  prune_diff = 0,
  drop_arm_levels = TRUE,
  incl_overall_sum = TRUE,
  pre_output = NULL,
  post_output = NULL,
  basic_table_args = teal.widgets::basic_table_args(),
  transformators = list(),
  decorators = list()
)

Arguments

label

(character)
menu item label of the module in the teal app.

dataname

(character)
analysis data used in teal module.

parentname

(character)
parent analysis data used in teal module, usually this refers to ADSL.

arm_var

(teal.transform::choices_selected())
object with all available choices and preselected option for variable names that can be used as arm_var. It defines the grouping variable(s) in the results table. If there are two elements selected for arm_var, second variable will be nested under the first variable.

hlt

(teal.transform::choices_selected())
name of the variable with high level term for events.

llt

(teal.transform::choices_selected())
name of the variable with low level term for events.

add_total

(logical)
whether to include column with total number of patients.

total_label

(string)
string to display as total column/row label if column/row is enabled (see add_total). Defaults to "All Patients". To set a new default total_label to apply in all modules, run set_default_total_label("new_default").

na_level

(string)
used to replace all NA or empty values in character or factor variables in the data. Defaults to "<Missing>". To set a default na_level to apply in all modules, run set_default_na_str("new_default").

event_type

(character)
type of event that is summarized (e.g. adverse event, treatment). Default is "event".

sort_criteria

(character)
how to sort the final table. Default option freq_desc sorts on column sort_freq_col by decreasing number of patients with event. Alternative option alpha sorts events alphabetically.

sort_freq_col

(character)
column to sort by frequency on if sort_criteria is set to freq_desc.

prune_freq

(number)
threshold to use for trimming table using event incidence rate in any column.

prune_diff

(number)
threshold to use for trimming table using as criteria difference in rates between any two columns.

drop_arm_levels

(logical)
whether to drop unused levels of arm_var. If TRUE, arm_var levels are set to those used in the dataname dataset. If FALSE, arm_var levels are set to those used in the parentname dataset. If dataname and parentname are the same, then drop_arm_levels is set to TRUE and user input for this parameter is ignored.

incl_overall_sum

(flag)
whether two rows which summarize the overall number of adverse events should be included at the top of the table.

pre_output

(shiny.tag) optional,
with text placed before the output to put the output into context. For example a title.

post_output

(shiny.tag) optional,
with text placed after the output to put the output into context. For example the shiny::helpText() elements are useful.

basic_table_args

(basic_table_args) optional
object created by teal.widgets::basic_table_args() with settings for the module table. The argument is merged with option teal.basic_table_args and with default module arguments (hard coded in the module body). For more details, see the vignette: vignette("custom-basic-table-arguments", package = "teal.widgets").

transformators

(list of teal_transform_module) that will be applied to transform module's data input. To learn more check vignette("transform-input-data", package = "teal").

decorators

[Experimental] (named list of lists of teal_transform_module) optional, decorator for tables or plots included in the module output reported. The decorators are applied to the respective output objects.

See section "Decorating Module" below for more details.

Value

a teal_module object.

Decorating Module

This module generates the following objects, which can be modified in place using decorators:

A Decorator is applied to the specific output using a named list of teal_transform_module objects. The name of this list corresponds to the name of the output to which the decorator is applied. See code snippet below:

tm_t_events(
   ..., # arguments for module
   decorators = list(
     table = teal_transform_module(...) # applied only to `table` output
   )
)

For additional details and examples of decorators, refer to the vignette vignette("decorate-module-output", package = "teal.modules.clinical").

To learn more please refer to the vignette vignette("transform-module-output", package = "teal") or the teal::teal_transform_module() documentation.
