teal Module: ANCOVA Summary

Description

This module produces a table to summarize analysis of variance, consistent with the TLG Catalog template for AOVT01 available here when multiple endpoints are selected.

Usage

tm_t_ancova(
  label,
  dataname,
  parentname = ifelse(inherits(arm_var, "data_extract_spec"),
    teal.transform::datanames_input(arm_var), "ADSL"),
  arm_var,
  arm_ref_comp = NULL,
  aval_var,
  cov_var,
  include_interact = FALSE,
  interact_var = NULL,
  interact_y = FALSE,
  avisit,
  paramcd,
  conf_level = teal.transform::choices_selected(c(0.95, 0.9, 0.8), 0.95, keep_order =
    TRUE),
  pre_output = NULL,
  post_output = NULL,
  basic_table_args = teal.widgets::basic_table_args(),
  transformators = list(),
  decorators = list()
)

Arguments

label	(character) menu item label of the module in the teal app.
dataname	(character) analysis data used in teal module.
parentname	(character) parent analysis data used in teal module, usually this refers to ADSL.
arm_var	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) object with all available choices and preselected option for variable names that can be used as arm_var. It defines the grouping variable in the results table.
arm_ref_comp	(list) optional, if specified it must be a named list with each element corresponding to an arm variable in ADSL and the element must be another list (possibly with delayed teal.transform::variable_choices() or delayed teal.transform::value_choices() with the elements named ref and comp that the defined the default reference and comparison arms when the arm variable is changed.
aval_var	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) object with all available choices and pre-selected option for the analysis variable.
cov_var	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) object with all available choices and preselected option for the covariates variables.
include_interact	(logical) whether an interaction term should be included in the model.
interact_var	(character) name of the variable that should have interactions with arm. If the interaction is not needed, the default option is NULL.
interact_y	(character) a selected item from the interact_var column which will be used to select the specific ANCOVA results when interact_var is discrete. If the interaction is not needed, the default option is FALSE.
avisit	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) value of analysis visit AVISIT of interest.
paramcd	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) object with all available choices and preselected option for the parameter code variable from dataname.
conf_level	(teal.transform::choices_selected()) object with all available choices and pre-selected option for the confidence level, each within range of (0, 1).
pre_output	(shiny.tag) optional, with text placed before the output to put the output into context. For example a title.
post_output	(shiny.tag) optional, with text placed after the output to put the output into context. For example the shiny::helpText() elements are useful.
basic_table_args	(basic_table_args) optional object created by teal.widgets::basic_table_args() with settings for the module table. The argument is merged with option teal.basic_table_args and with default module arguments (hard coded in the module body). For more details, see the vignette: vignette("custom-basic-table-arguments", package = "teal.widgets").
transformators	(list of teal_transform_module) that will be applied to transform module's data input. To learn more check vignette("transform-input-data", package = "teal").
decorators	(named list of lists of teal_transform_module) optional, decorator for tables or plots included in the module output reported. The decorators are applied to the respective output objects. See section "Decorating Module" below for more details.

Details

When a single endpoint is selected, both unadjusted and adjusted comparison are provided. This modules expects that the analysis data has the following variables:

• AVISIT: variable used to filter for analysis visits.

• PARAMCD: variable used to filter for endpoints, after filtering for paramcd and avisit, one observation per patient is expected for the analysis to be meaningful.

Value

a teal_module object.

Decorating Module

This module generates the following objects, which can be modified in place using decorators:

• table (TableTree - output of rtables::build_table())

A Decorator is applied to the specific output using a named list of teal_transform_module objects. The name of this list corresponds to the name of the output to which the decorator is applied. See code snippet below:

tm_t_ancova(
   ..., # arguments for module
   decorators = list(
     table = teal_transform_module(...) # applied only to `table` output
   )
)

For additional details and examples of decorators, refer to the vignette vignette("decorate-module-output", package = "teal.modules.clinical").

To learn more please refer to the vignette vignette("transform-module-output", package = "teal") or the teal::teal_transform_module() documentation.
