Create target-comparator-outcomes combinations.

Create target-comparator-outcomes combinations.

Usage

createTargetComparatorOutcomes(
  targetId,
  comparatorId,
  outcomes,
  nestingCohortId = NULL,
  excludedCovariateConceptIds = c(),
  includedCovariateConceptIds = c()
)

Arguments

targetId

A cohort ID identifying the target exposure in the exposure table.

comparatorId

A cohort ID identifying the comparator exposure in the exposure table.

outcomes

A list of object of type Outcome as created by createOutcome().

nestingCohortId

(Optional) the nesting cohort ID. If provided, this will override the nesting cohort ID used in createGetDbCohortMethodDataArgs().

excludedCovariateConceptIds

A list of concept IDs that cannot be used to construct covariates. This argument is to be used only for exclusion concepts that are specific to the target-comparator combination.

includedCovariateConceptIds

A list of concept IDs that must be used to construct covariates. This argument is to be used only for inclusion concepts that are specific to the target-comparator combination.

Value

An object of type TargetComparatorOutcomes.

Details

Create a set of hypotheses of interest, to be used with the runCmAnalyses() function.
