Description

Print summary of DALY Calculator output aggregated by age/sex class.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'DALY':
print(x, relative = FALSE, outcomes = FALSE,
     prob = 0.95, digits = 0, \dots)

Arguments

x

Object of class 'DALY'

relative

Show results per 1000 population? See details below

outcomes

Show results per outcome? See details below

prob

Probability span by printed credibility intervals; defaults to 0.95

digits

Number of decimals to be printed; defaults to 0

...

Additinoal arguments to be passed to print

Value

• print.DALY returns a list containg the following elements:
• total
  Matrix containing mean, median and prob credible interval of total DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths
• outcomes
  Named list, containing matrices of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths for each health outcome
• pct
  Vector of contribution of YLDs and YLLs to overall DALYs

Details

The standard print method gives the absolute number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, Cases and Deaths. By specifying relative = TRUE, the number of DALYs, YLDs, YLLs, cases and deaths per 1,000 population will be shown.
