getAgeGender

R Documentation

Get disease-specific age and gender bar graph

Description

Function returning the age and gender bar graph that will be included in the epidemiological report at the bookmark location 'BARGPH_AGEGENDER' of the template report.
The bar graph presents the distribution of cases at EU/EEA level using either:

AG-COUNT: The number of cases by age and gender
AG-RATE: The rate per 100 000 cases by age and gender
AG-PROP: The proportion of cases by age and gender
A-RATE: The rate per 100 000 cases by age only

The choice of the type of bar graph is set in the report parameters table AERparams.
(see ECDC reports https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/all-topics-z/surveillance-and-disease-data/annual-epidemiological-reports-aers)

Usage

getAgeGender(
  x = EpiReport::DENGUE2019,
  disease = "DENGUE",
  year = 2019,
  reportParameters = EpiReport::AERparams,
  geoCode = "EU_EEA31",
  index = 1,
  doc
)

Arguments

`x`	dataframe, raw disease-specific dataset (see specification of the dataset in the package vignette with `browseVignettes(package = "EpiReport")`) (default `DENGUE2019`)
`disease`	character string, disease code (default `"DENGUE"`). Please make sure the disease code is included in the disease-specific dataset x in the `HealthTopicCode` variable.
`year`	numeric, year to produce the graph for (default `2019`). Please make sure the year is included in the disease-specific dataset x in the `TimeCode` variable.
`reportParameters`	dataframe, dataset including the required parameters for the graph and report production (default `AERparams`) (see specification of the dataset in the package vignette with `browseVignettes(package = "EpiReport")`)
`geoCode`	character string, GeoCode to run the analysis on (default `"EU_EEA31"`)
`index`	integer, figure number
`doc`	'Word' document (see `'officer'` package) in which to add the graph at the bookmark location. If doc is missing, `getAgeGender` returns the `ggplot2` object.
