CIC_reconstruct: Reconstruct cumulative incidence curves
In reconstructKM: Reconstruct Individual-Level Data from Published KM Plots

Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

In competing risks situations, papers may provide one overall KM plot for the composite outcome of event 1 or event 2 as well as cumulative incidence plots for the each event separately. We can use these three plots to reconstruct individual level data with event-specific labels (censored, event 1, or event 2). Can also handle the case when the CIC for event 2 is not given. Run this separately for each arm.

1	CIC_reconstruct(overallIPD, clicks1, arm, clicks2 = NULL)

`overallIPD`	The individual patient data from the overall (composite outcome) plot that has already been processed through reconstructKM. Should have three columns: time, status, and arm.
`clicks1`	A data.frame with "time" and "cuminc" columns that are output from the digitizing software, similar to what you would input for reconstructKM except it's a cumulative incidence function for a specific event, not a survival function (make sure first click is (0,0)).
`arm`	The arm corresponding to clicks1 and possibly clicks2.
`clicks2`	Same as clicks1 but for the second event if it's provided. Default is null.

An augmented version of overallIPD that additionally gives the cause of the event (cause 1 or cause 2) as a fourth "event" column.
