VL.suppression.calculator: Calculate viral suppression fraction.

In wdelva/RSimpactHelp: Pre- and Post-simulation helper functions for RSimpact Cyan

Description

Calculate the fraction of HIV infected people of a particular age group who are virally suppressed at a point in time.

Usage

VL.suppression.calculator(datalist = datalist, agegroup = c(15, 30),
  timepoint = 30, vl.cutoff = 1000, site = "All")

Arguments

datalist	The datalist that is produced by readthedata
agegroup	Boundaries of the age group (lower.bound <= age < upper.bound) that should be retained, e.g. agegroup = c(15, 30)
timepoint	Point in time at which the viral suppression fraction should be calculated.
vl.cutoff	viral load below this threshold e.g <1000 copies/mL is defined as suppressed
site	Select only the particular site from the study, if all ignore site/use all sites.

Value

a dataframe with VL suppression estimates and surrounding confidence bounds, for the specified time point and age group, overall, and stratified by gender.

Examples

data(datalist)
VL.suppression.df <- VL.suppression.calculator(datalist = datalist,
agegroup = c(15, 30), timepoint = 30, vl.cutoff = 1000, site="All")
