This function is used internally in <code>jointmeta1</code>. It takes longitudinal
and survival datasets, and orders them by increasing survival time.

internal

Fits joint models of the type proposed by Henderson and colleagues
(2000) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/1.4.465>, but extends to the multi-study,
meta-analytic case. Functions for meta-analysis of a single longitudinal and
a single time-to-event outcome from multiple studies using joint models.
Options to produce plots for multi study joint data, to pool joint model
fits from 'JM' and 'joineR' packages in a two stage meta-analysis, and to
model multi-study joint data in a one stage meta-analysis.

sortDat: Sort data by order of increasing survival time
