print.DALY: Print method for class 'DALY'

In DALY: The DALY Calculator - Graphical User Interface for Probabilistic DALY Calculation in R

Description

Print summary of DALY Calculator output aggregated by age/sex class.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'DALY'
print(x, relative = FALSE, outcomes = FALSE,
     prob = 0.95, digits = 0, ...)

Arguments

x	Object of class 'DALY'
relative	Show results per 1000 population? See details below
outcomes	Show results per outcome? See details below
prob	Probability span by printed credibility intervals; defaults to 0.95
digits	Number of decimals to be printed; defaults to 0
...	Additional arguments to be passed to print

Details

The standard print method gives the absolute number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, Cases and Deaths. By specifying relative = TRUE, the number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths per 1,000 population will be shown.

The standard print method gives the number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths aggregated over all health outcomes. By specifying outcomes = TRUE, the number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths for each outcome will be shown as well.

Value

print.DALY returns a list containg the following elements:

total	Matrix containing mean, median and prob credible interval of total DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths
outcomes	Named list, containing matrices of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths for each health outcome
pct	Vector of contribution of YLDs and YLLs to overall DALYs
