Constructs the automated report from the output of the BCEA
make.report(he, evppi = NULL, ext = "pdf", echo = FALSE, ...)An object obtained as output to a call to bcea
An object obtained as output to a call to evppi
(default is NULL, so not essential to producing the report).
A string of text to indicate the extension of the
resulting output file. Possible options are "pdf", "docx".
This requires the use of pandoc, knitr and rmarkdown.
A string (default to FALSE) to instruct whether
the report should also include the BCEA commands used to
produce the analyses. If the optional argument echo is set
to TRUE (default = FALSE), then the commands are also
printed.
Additional parameters. For example, the user can specify the
value of the willingness to pay wtp, which is used in some of
the resulting analyses (default at the break even point).
Another additional parameter that the user can specify is the name
of the file to which the report should be written. This can be done
by simply passing the optional argument filename="NAME".
The user can also specify an object including the PSA simulations
for all the relevant model parameters. If this is passed to the
function (in the object psa_sims),
then make.report will automatically construct an "Info-rank
plot", which is a probabilistic form of tornado plot, based on the
Expcted Value of Partial Information. The user can also specify
the optional argument show.tab (default=FALSE); if set to
TRUE, then a table with the values of the Info-rank is also
shown.
