rt_register: Identify and extract Registration statements in TXT files.

In serghiou/rtransparent: Identifies indicators of transparency

Identify and extract Registration statements in TXT files.

Description

Takes a TXT file and returns data related to the presence of a Registration statement, including whether a Registration statement exists. If a Registration statement exists, it extracts it.

Usage

rt_register(filename)

Arguments

filename

The name of the TXT file as a string.

Value

A dataframe of results. It returns the PMID (if this was part of the filename and preceded by PMID), whether a registration statement was found, the identified statement, whether the text was deemed relevant (e.g. contained the word registration), whether a Methods section was identified, whether an NCT number was identified, whether a registration was explicitly identified (defunct) and whether each labeling function identified a relevant text or not. The labeling functions are returned to add flexibility in how this package is used; for example, future definitions of Registration may differ from the one we used.

Examples

## Not run: 
# Path to PMC XML.
filepath <- "../inst/extdata/00003-PMID26637448-PMC4737611.txt"

# Identify and extract meta-data and indicators of transparency.
results_table <- rt_register(filepath)

## End(Not run)
