Arguments

targetIds

A list of cohortIds for the target cohorts

outcomeIds

A list of cohortIds for the outcome cohorts

limitToFirstInNDays

whether to limit each target cohort to the first entry into the cohort per N days per subject

minPriorObservation

The minimum time (in days) in the database a patient in the target cohorts must be observed prior to index

outcomeWashoutDays

Patients with the outcome within outcomeWashout days prior to index are excluded from the risk factor analysis

riskWindowStart

The start of the risk window (in days) relative to the `startAnchor`.

startAnchor

The anchor point for the start of the risk window. Can be `"cohort start"` or `"cohort end"`.

riskWindowEnd

The end of the risk window (in days) relative to the `endAnchor`.

endAnchor

The anchor point for the end of the risk window. Can be `"cohort start"` or `"cohort end"`.

covariateSettings

An object created using FeatureExtraction::createCovariateSettings

minTargetSize

The minimum size of the target cohorts for them to have aggregate covariates calculated

minTwithOSize

The minimum size of the cohorts corresponding to patients in the target with the outcome during time-at-risk for them to have aggregate covariates calculated

Value

A list with the settings
