secuTrial exports inherently contain the information on which participant was registered at which point in time. This function makes use of this property to show annual recruitment.

annual_recruitment(x, rm_regex = "")

Arguments

x

a secuTrialdata object

rm_regex

character - specifies a regular expression to be removed from the centre names in the legend. e.g. rm_regex = "\\(.*\\)$" will remove trailing brackets and their contents.

Value

a data.frame showing the annual recruitment counts per center

Note

This function wraps plot_recruitment to retrieve the data.

Examples

# export location
expot_loc <- system.file("extdata", "sT_exports", "lnames",
                         "s_export_CSV-xls_CTU05_long_ref_miss_en_utf8.zip",
                         package = "secuTrialR")
# read export
sT_export <- read_secuTrial(expot_loc)
#> Read export successfully.
#> The following export options deviate from the suggested specifications:
