In ohdsi-studies/Covid19DrugRepurposing: Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Existing Drugs Considered for Treatment of COVID-19

Description

Execute the Self-Controlled Case Series analyses

Usage

runSelfControlledCaseSeries(
  connectionDetails,
  cdmDatabaseSchema,
  oracleTempSchema = NULL,
  outcomeDatabaseSchema = cdmDatabaseSchema,
  outcomeTable = "cohort",
  exposureDatabaseSchema = cdmDatabaseSchema,
  exposureTable = "drug_era",
  outputFolder,
  maxCores
)

Arguments

connectionDetails	An object of type connectionDetails as created using the createConnectionDetails function in the DatabaseConnector package.
cdmDatabaseSchema	Schema name where your patient-level data in OMOP CDM format resides. Note that for SQL Server, this should include both the database and schema name, for example 'cdm_data.dbo'.
oracleTempSchema	Should be used in Oracle to specify a schema where the user has write priviliges for storing temporary tables.
outcomeDatabaseSchema	Schema name where the outcome cohorts are stored. Note that for SQL Server, this should include both the database and schema name, for example 'cdm_data.dbo'.
outcomeTable	The name of the table in the outcome database schema that holds the outcome cohorts,
exposureDatabaseSchema	Schema name where the exposure cohorts are stored. Note that for SQL Server, this should include both the database and schema name, for example 'cdm_data.dbo'.
exposureTable	The name of the table in the exposure database schema that holds the exposure cohorts,
outputFolder	Name of local folder to place results; make sure to use forward slashes (/). Do not use a folder on a network drive since this greatly impacts performance.
maxCores	How many parallel cores should be used? If more cores are made available this can speed up the analyses.
