add_CI: Add confidence interval (CI) to visR object

In visR: Clinical Graphs and Tables Adhering to Graphical Principles

Add confidence interval (CI) to visR object

Description

Method to add pointwise confidence intervals to a an object created by visR through an S3 method. The method is set up to use the pipe ⁠%>%⁠. There are two options to display CI's, a "ribbon" or as "step" lines.

No default method is available at the moment.

Usage

add_CI(gg, ...)

## S3 method for class 'ggsurvfit'
add_CI(gg, alpha = 0.1, style = "ribbon", linetype, ...)

## S3 method for class 'ggtidycuminc'
add_CI(gg, alpha = 0.1, style = "ribbon", linetype, ...)

Arguments

gg	A ggplot created with visR
...	other arguments passed on to the method to modify geom_ribbon
alpha	aesthetic of ggplot2 geom_ribbon. Default is 0.1.
style	aesthetic of ggplot2 geom_ribbon. Default is "ribbon". An alternative option is "step" that uses a line to display interval bounds.
linetype	aesthetic of ggplot2 geom_ribbon.

Value

Pointwise confidence interval overlayed on a visR ggplot

Examples

library(visR)

# Estimate KM curves by treatment group
survfit_object <- survival::survfit(data = adtte, survival::Surv(AVAL, 1 - CNSR) ~ TRTP)

## plot without confidence intervals (CI)
p <- visR::visr(survfit_object)
p

# add CI to plot with default settings
p %>% add_CI()

# change transparency of CI ribbon
p %>% add_CI(alpha = 0.9, style = "ribbon")

# plot CI as a step line instead of ribbon
p %>% add_CI(alpha = 0.1, style = "step")

# change linetype of CI
p %>% add_CI(style = "step", linetype = 1)
