In vigicaen: 'VigiBase' Pharmacovigilance Database Toolbox

Extract low level terms from SMQs

Description

Collect llts from smq_list and smq_content data.tables, given an SMQ.

Usage

get_llt_smq(
  smq,
  smq_scope = c("narrow", "broad"),
  smq_list,
  smq_content,
  smq_list_content = deprecated()
)

Arguments

smq	A named list of character vector of length 1.
smq_scope	A character vector. One of "narrow" or "broad".
smq_list	A data.table. A list of SMQs.
smq_content	A data.table. A list of SMQs content.
smq_list_content

Details

get_llt_smq() is an ID collector function. SMQ stands for Standardized MedDRA query. get_llt_smq()only works with NON-algorithmic SMQs (this status is given in the smq_list table). See smq_list_ and smq_content_. You can choose between the narrow and the broad scope of the SMQ. If you want to work with the SOC hierarchy, use get_llt_soc().

Value

A named list of integers. Low-level term codes.

Examples

## Finding llt codes for Embolism (SMQ)

smq_sel <- rlang::list2(
  embolism = "Embolic and thrombotic events, venous (SMQ)"
 )
get_llt_smq(smq_sel,
                smq_scope = "narrow",
                smq_list = smq_list_,
                smq_content = smq_content_
                )

# You can query multiple SMQs in one item, and query high level SMQs
smq_sel2 <-
  rlang::list2(
    sepsis = c("Sepsis (SMQ)","Toxic-septic shock conditions (SMQ)"),
    ischemic_heart_disease = c("Ischaemic heart disease (SMQ)"),
  )

get_llt_smq(smq_sel2,
            smq_scope = "narrow",
            smq_list = smq_list_,
            smq_content = smq_content_
            )
