plotCovariateBalanceScatterPlot: Create a scatterplot of the covariate balance

In OHDSI/CohortMethod: New-User Cohort Method with Large Scale Propensity and Outcome Models

Create a scatterplot of the covariate balance

Description

Create a scatterplot of the covariate balance, showing all variables with balance before and after matching on the x and y axis respectively. Requires running computeCovariateBalance first.

Usage

plotCovariateBalanceScatterPlot(
  balance,
  absolute = TRUE,
  threshold = 0,
  title = "Standardized difference of mean",
  fileName = NULL,
  beforeLabel = "Before matching",
  afterLabel = "After matching",
  showCovariateCountLabel = FALSE,
  showMaxLabel = FALSE
)

Arguments

balance	A data frame created by the computeCovariateBalance function.
absolute	Should the absolute value of the difference be used?
threshold	Show a threshold value for after matching standardized difference.
title	The main title for the plot.
fileName	Name of the file where the plot should be saved, for example 'plot.png'. See the function ggsave in the ggplot2 package for supported file formats.
beforeLabel	Label for the x-axis.
afterLabel	Label for the y-axis.
showCovariateCountLabel	Show a label with the number of covariates included in the plot?
showMaxLabel	Show a label with the maximum absolute standardized difference after matching/stratification?

Value

A ggplot object. Use the ggplot2::ggsave function to save to file in a different format.
