prop_diff: Proportion difference estimation

Description

The analysis function a_proportion_diff_j() can be used to create a layout element to estimate the difference in proportion of responders within a studied population. The primary analysis variable, vars, is a logical variable indicating whether a response has occurred for each record. See the method parameter for options of methods to use when constructing the confidence interval of the proportion difference. A stratification variable can be supplied via the strata element of the variables argument.

Usage

a_proportion_diff_j(
  df,
  .var,
  ref_path,
  .spl_context,
  ...,
  .stats = NULL,
  .formats = NULL,
  .labels = NULL,
  .indent_mods = NULL
)
s_proportion_diff_j(
  df,
  .var,
  .ref_group,
  .in_ref_col,
  variables = list(strata = NULL),
  conf_level = 0.95,
  method = c("waldcc", "wald", "cmh", "cmh_sato", "cmh_mn", "ha", "newcombe",
    "newcombecc", "strat_newcombe", "strat_newcombecc"),
  weights_method = "cmh"
)

Value

• a_proportion_diff_j() returns the corresponding list with formatted rtables::CellValue().

• s_proportion_diff_j() returns a named list of elements diff, diff_ci, diff_est_ci and diff_ci_3d.

Arguments

(data.frame)
input data frame.

.var

(string)
name of the response variable.

ref_path

(character)
path to the reference group.

.spl_context

(environment)
split context environment.

...

Additional arguments passed to the statistics function.

.stats

(character)
statistics to calculate.

.formats

(list)
formats for the statistics.

.labels

(list)
labels for the statistics.

.indent_mods

(list)
indentation modifications for the statistics.

.ref_group

(data.frame)
reference group data frame.

.in_ref_col

(logical)
whether the current column is the reference column.

variables

(list)
list with strata variable names.

conf_level

(numeric)
confidence level for the confidence interval.

method

(string)
method to use for confidence interval calculation.

weights_method

(string)
method to use for weights calculation in stratified analysis.

Functions

• a_proportion_diff_j(): Formatted analysis function which is used as afun in estimate_proportion_diff().

• s_proportion_diff_j(): Statistics function estimating the difference in terms of responder proportion.
