Helper for consistent documentation of conceptCohort and measurementCohort.

Description

Helper for consistent documentation of conceptCohort and measurementCohort.

Arguments

useRecordsBeforeObservation	If FALSE, only records that fall entirely (start and end) within an observation period are used. If TRUE, records that start before an observation period are included by shifting their start date to the beginning of the individual's subsequent observation period, and records that start or end outside an observation period are trimmed so that cohort records fall entirely within the corresponding observation period.
useSourceFields	If TRUE, the source concept_id fields will also be used when identifying relevant clinical records. If FALSE, only the standard concept_id fields will be used.
subsetCohort	A character refering to a cohort table containing individuals for whom cohorts will be generated. Only individuals in this table will appear in the generated cohort.
subsetCohortId	Optional. Specifies cohort IDs from the subsetCohort table to include. If none are provided, all cohorts from the subsetCohort are included.
