convert_dia | R Documentation |
Analyzes diagnosis data loaded using load_dia. Searches diagnosis columns for a specified set of diseases. By default, the data.table is returned with new columns corresponding to boolean values, whether given group of diagnoses are present among the diagnoses. If collapse is given, then the information is aggregated based-on the collapse column and the earliest of latest time of the given diagnosis is provided.

d |
data.table, database containing diagnosis information data loaded using the load_dia function. |
code |
string, column name of the diagnosis code column. Defaults to dia_code. |
code_type |
string, column name of the code_type column. Defaults to dia_code_type. |
codes_to_find |
list, a list of string arrays corresponding to sets of code types and codes separated by :, i.e.: "ICD9:250.00". The function searches for the given disease code type and code pair and adds new boolean columns with the name of each list element. These columns are indicators whether any of the disease code type and code pair occurs in the set of codes. |
collapse |
string, a column name on which to collapse the data.table. Used in case we wish to assess whether given disease codes are present within all the same instances of collapse. See vignette for details. |
code_time |
string, column name of the time column. Defaults to time_dia. Used in case collapse is present to provide the earliest or latest instance of diagnosing the given disease. |
aggr_type |
string, if multiple diagnoses are present within the same case of collapse, which timepoint to return. Supported are: "earliest" or "latest". Defaults to earliest. |
nThread |
integer, number of threads to use for parallelization. If it is set to 1, then no parallel backends are created and the function is executed sequentially. |
data.table, with indicator columns whether the any of the given diagnoses are reported. If collapse is present, then only unique ID and the summary columns are returned.
