#' Count the number of patients with a particular event
#'
#' @description `r lifecycle::badge("stable")`
#'
#' The analyze function [count_patients_with_event()] creates a layout element to calculate patient counts for a
#' user-specified set of events.
#'
#' This function analyzes primary analysis variable `vars` which indicates unique subject identifiers. Events
#' are defined by the user as a named vector via the `filters` argument, where each name corresponds to a
#' variable and each value is the value(s) that that variable takes for the event.
#'
#' If there are multiple records with the same event recorded for a patient, only one occurrence is counted.
#'
#' @inheritParams argument_convention
#' @param filters (`character`)\cr a character vector specifying the column names and flag variables
#'   to be used for counting the number of unique identifiers satisfying such conditions.
#'   Multiple column names and flags are accepted in this format
#'   `c("column_name1" = "flag1", "column_name2" = "flag2")`.
#'   Note that only equality is being accepted as condition.
#' @param .stats (`character`)\cr statistics to select for the table.
#'
#'   Options are: ``r shQuote(get_stats("count_patients_with_event"), type = "sh")``
#'
#' @seealso [count_patients_with_flags()]

#' @name count_patients_with_event

NULL

#' @describeIn count_patients_with_event Statistics function which counts the number of patients for which
#'   the defined event has occurred.
#'
#' @inheritParams analyze_variables
#' @param .var (`string`)\cr name of the column that contains the unique identifier.
#'
#' @return
#' * `s_count_patients_with_event()` returns the count and fraction of unique identifiers with the defined event.
