Description

Create a parameter object for the function createStudyPopulation

Usage

createCreateStudyPopulationArgs(
  firstExposureOnly = FALSE,
  restrictToCommonPeriod = FALSE,
  washoutPeriod = 0,
  removeDuplicateSubjects = FALSE,
  removeSubjectsWithPriorOutcome = TRUE,
  priorOutcomeLookback = 99999,
  minDaysAtRisk = 1,
  maxDaysAtRisk = 99999,
  riskWindowStart = 0,
  addExposureDaysToStart = NULL,
  startAnchor = "cohort start",
  riskWindowEnd = 0,
  addExposureDaysToEnd = NULL,
  endAnchor = "cohort end",
  censorAtNewRiskWindow = FALSE
)

Arguments

firstExposureOnly	Should only the first exposure per subject be included?
restrictToCommonPeriod	Restrict the analysis to the period when both exposures are observed?
washoutPeriod	The minimum required continuous observation time prior to index date for a person to be included in the cohort.
removeDuplicateSubjects	Remove subjects that are in both the target and comparator cohort? See details for allowed values.
removeSubjectsWithPriorOutcome	Remove subjects that have the outcome prior to the risk window start?
priorOutcomeLookback	How many days should we look back when identifying prior outcomes?
minDaysAtRisk	The minimum required number of days at risk. Risk windows with fewer days than this number are removed from the analysis.
maxDaysAtRisk	The maximum allowed number of days at risk. Risk windows that are longer will be truncated to this number of days.
riskWindowStart	The start of the risk window (in days) relative to the startAnchor.
addExposureDaysToStart	DEPRECATED: Add the length of exposure the start of the risk window? Use startAnchor instead.
startAnchor	The anchor point for the start of the risk window. Can be "cohort start" or "cohort end".
riskWindowEnd	The end of the risk window (in days) relative to the endAnchor.
addExposureDaysToEnd	DEPRECATED: Add the length of exposure the risk window? Use endAnchor instead.
endAnchor	The anchor point for the end of the risk window. Can be "cohort start" or "cohort end".
censorAtNewRiskWindow	If a subject is in multiple cohorts, should time-at-risk be censored when the new time-at-risk starts to prevent overlap?
