panel.prevalence: Treatment Prevalence vs Duration graphic

In VizOR: Graphical Visualization Tools for Complex Observational Data with Focus on Health Sciences

Description

Provides a special graphic for treatment prevalence-vs-duration. Used in place of lattice function 'panel.bwplot', this function enables a special kind of graphic displaying prevalence of various kinds of treatment within a patient population, together with the distribution of treatment durations.

Usage

panel.prevalence(x, y, prevalence, box.width = NA, pch = "+",
  pch.out = 20, alpha = 0.5, ..., stats = boxplot.stats, coef = 1.5,
  do.out = TRUE)

Arguments

x	Vector of (numeric or difftime) treatment durations
y	The treatment factor
prevalence	Treatment prevalence, typically an xtabs object calculated by, e.g., xtabs(~trt, data)
box.width	If this is specified, a more-or-less standard boxplot will be produced
pch	Plotting symbol used for boxplot median
pch.out	Plotting symbol for outliers (default is dot)
alpha	Boxplot transparency
stats	Function to generate boxplot statistics (default is boxplot.stats)
coef	How far boxplot whiskers should extend outside the box
do.out	Logical; should outliers be plotted?
...	Currently used to pass key.colors parameter
