g_ipp: Individual patient plots

In tern: Create Common TLGs Used in Clinical Trials

Individual patient plots

Description

Line plot(s) displaying trend in patients' parameter values over time is rendered. Patients' individual baseline values can be added to the plot(s) as reference.

Usage

g_ipp(
  df,
  xvar,
  yvar,
  xlab,
  ylab,
  id_var = "USUBJID",
  title = "Individual Patient Plots",
  subtitle = "",
  caption = NULL,
  add_baseline_hline = FALSE,
  yvar_baseline = "BASE",
  ggtheme = nestcolor::theme_nest(),
  plotting_choices = c("all_in_one", "split_by_max_obs", "separate_by_obs"),
  max_obs_per_plot = 4,
  col = NULL
)

Arguments

df	(data.frame) data set containing all analysis variables.
xvar	(string) time point variable to be plotted on x-axis.
yvar	(string) continuous analysis variable to be plotted on y-axis.
xlab	(string) plot label for x-axis.
ylab	(string) plot label for y-axis.
id_var	(string) variable used as patient identifier.
title	(string) title for plot.
subtitle	(string) subtitle for plot.
caption	(string) optional caption below the plot.
add_baseline_hline	(flag) adds horizontal line at baseline y-value on plot when TRUE.
yvar_baseline	(string) variable with baseline values only. Ignored when add_baseline_hline is FALSE.
ggtheme	(theme) optional graphical theme function as provided by ggplot2 to control outlook of plot. Use ggplot2::theme() to tweak the display.
plotting_choices	(string) specifies options for displaying plots. Must be one of "all_in_one", "split_by_max_obs", or "separate_by_obs".
max_obs_per_plot	(integer(1)) number of observations to be plotted on one plot. Ignored if plotting_choices is not "separate_by_obs".
col	(character) line colors.

Value

A ggplot object or a list of ggplot objects.

Functions

• g_ipp(): Plotting function for individual patient plots which, depending on user preference, renders a single graphic or compiles a list of graphics that show trends in individual's parameter values over time.
