In jmacdon/methylation: Package to analyze methylation data from Illumina 450K arrays

Description

A function to create tables showing correlation between methylation status and gene expression.

Usage

plotAndOut(lstitm, eset, prb, samps, file, contname, orgpkg,
  stratifyBySex = FALSE, extra.indeps = NULL)

Arguments

lstitm	A data.frame containing gene expression data for genes that are within the 1 Mb region centered on the methylation 'bump'.
eset	Usually a GenomicRatioSet, created by a call to preprocessQuantile from the mimfi package
prb	A vector of probe IDs that correspond to the differently methylated (Illumina 450K) probe IDs.
samps	A data.frame that maps samples to phenotype. This data.frame MUST contain columns named Category and Gender!
file	A filename. In general this is the genomic region, separated by underscores (e.g., chr1_12345_23456)
contname	A contrast name. Usually this is lowercase and separated by underscores (e.g., this_vs_that)
orgpkg	An organism level annotation package (e.g., Homo.sapiens)
stratifyBySex	Boolean. Do you want to stratify the plots by sex? Defaults to FALSE.
extra.indeps	Additional independent variables to use when fitting the model regressing methylation on gene expression. These must conform to column names of the samps data.frame.

Details

This function is not intended to be called by the end user. Instead it is intended to create the HTML table showing correlation between gene gene expression and methylation status, as well as xyplots that show the correlation graphically.

Value

This returns an HTMLReportRef.
