ShowRegTable function

Format regression results in medically decent format

It shows the regression result in the HR [95% CI] p-value format, which is usually the form used in medical research papers.

ShowRegTable(
  model,
  exp = TRUE,
  digits = 2,
  pDigits = 3,
  printToggle = TRUE,
  quote = FALSE,
  ciFun = confint
)

Arguments

• model: Regression model result objects that have the summary and confint methods.
• exp: TRUE by default. You need to specify exp = FALSE if your model is has the indentity link function (linear regression, etc).
• digits: Number of digits to print for the main part.
• pDigits: Number of digits to print for the p-values.
• printToggle: Whether to print the output. If FALSE, no output is created, and a matrix is invisibly returned.
• quote: Whether to show everything in quotes. The default is FALSE. If TRUE, everything including the row and column names are quoted so that you can copy it to Excel easily.
• ciFun: Function used for calculation. confint is the default. For generalized linear models this gives the profile likelihood-based calculation, which may take too much time for large models, use confint.default for simple normal approximation method (+/- 1.96 * standard error).

Returns

A matrix containing what you see is returned invisibly. You can capture it by assignment to an object.

Examples

## Load
library(tableone)

## Load Mayo Clinic Primary Biliary Cirrhosis Data
library(survival)
data(pbc)
## Check variables
head(pbc)

## Fit a Cox regression model
objCoxph <- coxph(formula = Surv(time, status == 2) ~ trt + age + albumin + ascites,
                  data    = pbc)

## Show the simple table
ShowRegTable(objCoxph)

## Show with quote to ease copy and paste
ShowRegTable(objCoxph, quote = TRUE)
