In OHDSI/SelfControlledCaseSeries: Self-Controlled Case Series

Create Self-Controlled Risk Interval (SCRI) era data

Description

Create Self-Controlled Risk Interval (SCRI) era data

Usage

createScriIntervalData(
  studyPopulation,
  sccsData,
  eraCovariateSettings,
  controlIntervalSettings
)

Arguments

studyPopulation	An object created using the createStudyPopulation() function.
sccsData	An object of type SccsData as created using the getDbSccsData function.
eraCovariateSettings	Either an object of type EraCovariateSettings as created using the createEraCovariateSettings() function, or a list of such objects.
controlIntervalSettings	An object of type ControlIntervalSettings as created using the createControlIntervalSettings() function.

Details

This function creates interval data according to the elf-Controlled Risk Interval (SCRI) design. Unlike the generic SCCS design, where all patient time is used to establish a background rate, in the SCRI design a specific control interval (relative to the exposure) needs to be defined. The final model will only include time that is either part of the risk interval (defined using the eraCovariateSettings argument, or the control interval (defined using controlIntervalSettings).

Value

An object of type SccsIntervalData.
