In irinagain/iglu: Interpreting Glucose Data from Continuous Glucose Monitors

Calculate mean difference between glucose values obtained at the same time of day (MODD)

Description

The function modd produces MODD values in a tibble object.

Usage

modd(data, lag = 1, tz = "")

Arguments

data	DataFrame object with column names "id", "time", and "gl".
lag	Integer indicating which lag (# days) to use. Default is 1.
tz	A character string specifying the time zone to be used. System-specific (see as.POSIXct), but " " is the current time zone, and "GMT" is UTC (Universal Time, Coordinated). Invalid values are most commonly treated as UTC, on some platforms with a warning.

Details

A tibble object with 1 row for each subject, a column for subject id and a column for the MODD values is returned.

Missing values will be linearly interpolated when close enough to non-missing values.

MODD is calculated by taking the mean of absolute differences between measurements at the same time 1 day away, or more if lag parameter is set to an integer > 1.

Value

A tibble object with two columns: subject id and corresponding MODD value.
