Introduction
In this vignette, we will explore the OmopSketch functions designed to provide an overview of the clinical tables within a CDM object (observation_period, visit_occurrence, condition_occurrence, drug_exposure, procedure_occurrence, device_exposure, measurement, observation, and death). Specifically, there are four key functions that facilitate this:
summariseClinicalRecords()
andtableClinicalRecords()
: Use them to create a summary statistics with key basic information of the clinical table (e.g., number fo records, number of concepts mapped, etc.)summariseRecordCount()
andplotRecordCount()
: Use them to summarise the number of records within a specific time interval.
Create a mock cdm
Let’s see an example of its funcionalities. To start with, we will load essential packages and create a mock cdm using Eunomia database.

Summarise clinical tables
Let’s now use summariseClinicalTables()
from the
OmopSketch package to help us have an overview of one of the clinical
tables of the cdm (i.e., condition_occurrence).

Notice that the output is in the summarised result format.
We can use the arguments to specify which statistics we want to
perform. For example, use the argument recordsPerPerson
to
indicate which estimants you are interested in regarding the number of
records per person.

"condition_occurrence",

You can further specify if you want to include the number of records
in observation (inObservation = TRUE

concepts mapped (standardConcept = TRUE

source vocabulary does the table contain
(sourceVocabulary = TRUE

vocabulary have (domainId = TRUE

(typeConcept = TRUE

Tidy the summarised object
tableClinicalRecords()
will help you to tidy the
previous results and create a gt table.

Summarise record counts
OmopSketch can also help you to summarise the trend of the records of
an omop table. See the example below, where we use
summariseRecordCount()
to count the number of records
within each year, and then, we use plotRecordCount()
to
create a ggplot with the trend.
summarisedResult <- summariseRecordCount(cdm, "drug_exposure", unit = "year", unitInterval = 1)
summarisedResult |> print()
#> # A tibble: 111 × 13
#> result_id cdm_name group_name group_level strata_name strata_level
#> <int> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr> <chr>
#> 1 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> 2 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> 3 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall

#> 7 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> 8 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> 9 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> 10 1 Synthea synthetic … omop_table drug_expos… overall overall
#> # ℹ 101 more rows
#> # ℹ 7 more variables: variable_name <chr>, variable_level <chr>,
#> # estimate_name <chr>, estimate_type <chr>, estimate_value <chr>,
#> # additional_name <chr>, additional_level <chr>
summarisedResult |> plotRecordCount()
Note that you can adjust the time interval period using the
unit
argument, which can be set to either “year” or
“month”, and the unitInterval
argument, which must be an
integer specifying the number of years or months which to count the
records. See the example below, where it shows the number of records
every 18 months:
summariseRecordCount(cdm, "drug_exposure", unit = "month", unitInterval = 18) |>
plotRecordCount()
We can further stratify our counts by sex (setting argument
sex = TRUE
) or by age (providing an age group). Notice that
in both cases, the function will automatically create a group called
overall with all the sex groups and all the age groups.
summariseRecordCount(cdm, "drug_exposure",
unit = "month",
unitInterval = 18,
sex = TRUE,
ageGroup = list("20-29" = c(20,29),
"30-39" = c(30,39))) |>
plotRecordCount()
By default, plotRecordCount()
does not apply faceting to
any variables. However, you can use the facet
argument to
indicate which columns of the summarised result (either
group_level, strata_level or variable_level)
you want to facet by. If no variables are specified, different colours
will be used instead.
summariseRecordCount(cdm, "drug_exposure",
unit = "month",
unitInterval = 18,
sex = TRUE) |>
plotRecordCount(facet = omop_table ~ sex)
Finally, disconnect from the cdm
