elaborator_plot_quant_trends: Generates boxplots for each treatment group and laboratory...

In elaborator: A 'shiny' Application for Exploring Laboratory Data

Description

Generate boxplots showing the distribution of laboratory values at each visits of a study separately by treatment group and laboratory parameter according to the quantitative trend analysis.

Usage

elaborator_plot_quant_trends(
  dat1,
  signtest = TRUE,
  Visit1,
  Visit2,
  sameaxes = FALSE,
  ats = NULL,
  cols = NULL,
  labelvis = NULL,
  labcolumn,
  sortpoints = FALSE,
  pcutoff = 0.01,
  cexoutliers = 0.7,
  infotest = NULL,
  sortinput = as.character(unique(dat1[, labcolumn])),
  bordercol = NULL,
  add_points = TRUE,
  connect_lines = FALSE
)

Arguments

dat1	data set
signtest	logical, if true sign test, otherwise t-test for comparing Visit1 and Visit2 is performed
Visit1	name of visit time point one
Visit2	name of visit time point two, or vector of visit names for pairwise comparison to Visit1
sameaxes	logical indicating if boxplot should have the same y-axis range for all treatment groups within a laboratory parameter
ats	numeric vector giving the locations where the boxplots should be drawn; defaults to 1:n where n is the number of boxplots.
cols	vector with colors of boxplots
labelvis	vector of visit names used for labelling
labcolumn	column name of dat1 which includes the laboratory parameter names
sortpoints	logical indicating if dots in boxplots should be sorted from smallest to largest
pcutoff	numeric for p-value threshold; if p-value of specified test is below this threshold, the background of the respective plot is colorized.
cexoutliers	size of the outliers
infotest	list object from the perform test function
sortinput	vector of laboratory parameter names in the order in which laboratory parameters are presented in the output
bordercol	color of boxes which are not selected for hypothesis testing
add_points	logical indicating if points showing patients' values should be added to the boxplots
connect_lines	logical indicating if subject values should be connected between visits via lines

Value

No return value. Generates plots for the quantitative trends analysis.
