LocalControl (version 1.1.4)

plot.LocalControlCR: Plot cumulative incidence functions (CIFs) from Local Control.

Description

Given the results from LocalControl with outcomeType = "survival", plot a corrected and uncorrected cumulative incidence function (CIF) for both groups.

Usage

# S3 method for LocalControlCR
plot(
  x,
  ...,
  rad2plot,
  xlim,
  ylim = c(0, 1),
  col1 = "blue",
  col0 = "red",
  xlab = "Time",
  ylab = "Cumulative incidence",
  legendLocation = "topleft",
  main = "",
  group1 = "Treatment 1",
  group0 = "Treatment 0"
)

Arguments

x

Return object from LocalControl with outcomeType = "survival".

...

Arguments passed on to graphics::plot.default

type

1-character string giving the type of plot desired. The following values are possible, for details, see plot: "p" for points, "l" for lines, "b" for both points and lines, "c" for empty points joined by lines, "o" for overplotted points and lines, "s" and "S" for stair steps and "h" for histogram-like vertical lines. Finally, "n" does not produce any points or lines.

log

a character string which contains "x" if the x axis is to be logarithmic, "y" if the y axis is to be logarithmic and "xy" or "yx" if both axes are to be logarithmic.

sub

a subtitle for the plot.

ann

a logical value indicating whether the default annotation (title and x and y axis labels) should appear on the plot.

axes

a logical value indicating whether both axes should be drawn on the plot. Use graphical parameter "xaxt" or "yaxt" to suppress just one of the axes.

frame.plot

a logical indicating whether a box should be drawn around the plot.

panel.first

an ‘expression’ to be evaluated after the plot axes are set up but before any plotting takes place. This can be useful for drawing background grids or scatterplot smooths. Note that this works by lazy evaluation: passing this argument from other plot methods may well not work since it may be evaluated too early.

panel.last

an expression to be evaluated after plotting has taken place but before the axes, title and box are added. See the comments about panel.first.

asp

the \(y/x\) aspect ratio, see plot.window.

xgap.axis,ygap.axis

the \(x/y\) axis gap factors, passed as gap.axis to the two axis() calls (when axes is true, as per default).

rad2plot

The index or name ("rad_#") of the radius to plot. By default, the radius with pct_informative closest to 0.8 will be selected.

xlim

The x axis bounds. Defaults to c(0, max(lccrResults$Failtimes)).

ylim

The y axis bounds. Defaults to c(0,1).

col1

The plot color for group 1.

col0

The plot color for group 0.

xlab

The x axis label. Defaults to "Time".

ylab

The y axis label. Defaults to "Cumulative incidence".

legendLocation

The location to place the legend. Default "topleft".

main

The main plot title. Default is empty.

group1

The name of the primary group (Treatment 1).

group0

The name of the secondary group (Treatment 0).
