Add split tables around a forest plot — add_split

Compose split table blocks around a forest plot so that summary data appear on both sides of the plotting panel.

Usage

add_split_table(
  plot = NULL,
  left_columns = NULL,
  right_columns = NULL,
  term_header = "Term",
  n_header = "N",
  events_header = "Events",
  estimate_label = NULL,
  p_header = "P-value",
  column_labels = NULL,
  digits = NULL,
  estimate_digits = NULL,
  interval_digits = NULL,
  p_digits = NULL,
  estimate_fmt = NULL,
  ci_fmt = NULL,
  text_size = NULL,
  header_text_size = NULL,
  header_fontface = "bold",
  header_family = NULL,
  striped_rows = NULL,
  stripe_fill = NULL,
  stripe_colour = NULL,
  stripe_alpha = NULL,
  left_width = NULL,
  plot_width = NULL,
  right_width = NULL
)

Arguments

plot: A plot created by ggforestplot(). Leave as NULL to use + add_split_table(...) syntax.
left_columns: Optional explicit columns to place on the left side of the forest plot. Accepts built-in names such as "term", "group", "n", "events", "estimate", "ci", and "p", arbitrary original dataframe columns, or numeric positions in the supplied data. "conf.low" and "conf.high" are accepted as aliases for "ci". The default grouped layout includes "group" on the left. Its header defaults to the source column supplied through group = for data frames and to "Model" for bind_forest_models() output.
right_columns: Optional explicit columns to place on the right side of the forest plot. Accepts built-in names such as "group", "estimate", "ci", and "p", arbitrary original dataframe columns, or numeric positions in the supplied data. "conf.low" and "conf.high" are accepted as aliases for "ci".
term_header: Header text for the term column.
n_header: Header text for the N column.
events_header: Header text for the Events column.
estimate_label: Header label for the estimate column. Defaults to the model-derived label when available.
p_header: Header text for the p-value column.
column_labels: Optional named vector used to relabel table column headers. Names should match values supplied to left_columns or right_columns after column resolution, such as "term", "group", "estimate", "ci", "p", or an arbitrary original dataframe column. For grouped data frames, either "group" or the source column supplied through group = can relabel the group column.
digits: Deprecated. Number of digits used when formatting estimates and p-values. Defaults to 2. Use estimate_digits, interval_digits, and p_digits for separate control.
estimate_digits: Number of digits used for point estimates.
interval_digits: Number of digits used for confidence interval bounds.
p_digits: Number of digits used for p-values.
estimate_fmt: Format string for the estimate column. Use {estimate}, {conf.low}, and {conf.high} as placeholders. The shorthand {conf.low, conf.high} is also supported. Defaults to "{estimate} ({conf.low}, {conf.high})", or "{estimate}" when table columns include "ci".
ci_fmt: Format string for the confidence interval column when table columns include "ci". Use {conf.low} and {conf.high} as placeholders. The shorthand {conf.low, conf.high} is also supported. Defaults to "({conf.low}, {conf.high})".
text_size: Text size for table contents. Defaults to 3.2.
header_text_size: Header text size for table column labels. Defaults to 11.
header_fontface: Font face used for table column labels. Defaults to "bold".
header_family: Optional font family used for table column labels.
striped_rows: Whether to draw alternating row stripes behind the split table layout. Defaults to the stripe setting used in ggforestplot().
stripe_fill: Fill colour used for striped rows. Defaults to the stripe fill used in ggforestplot().
stripe_colour: Outline colour for striped rows. Defaults to the stripe outline used in ggforestplot().
stripe_alpha: Transparency for striped rows. Defaults to the stripe alpha used in ggforestplot().
left_width: Optional width allocated to the left table block. By default this is derived from the number of displayed left-side columns relative to plot_width.
plot_width: Optional width allocated to the forest plot panel. Defaults to 2.5.
right_width: Optional width allocated to the right table block. By default this is derived from the number of displayed right-side columns relative to plot_width.

Value

A patchwork-composed plot containing a left table, the forest plot, and a right table, or a ggplot add-on object when plot = NULL.

Examples

coefs <- data.frame(
  term = c("Age", "BMI", "Treatment"),
  estimate = c(0.3, -0.2, 0.4),
  conf.low = c(0.1, -0.4, 0.2),
  conf.high = c(0.5, 0.0, 0.6),
  sample_size = c(120, 115, 98),
  p_value = c(0.012, 0.031, 0.004)
)

p <- ggforestplot(coefs, n = "sample_size", p.value = "p_value")
add_split_table(
  p,
  left_columns = c("term", "n"),
  right_columns = c("estimate", "p"),
  estimate_label = "HR"
)


ggforestplot(coefs, n = "sample_size", p.value = "p_value") +
  add_split_table(
    left_columns = c(1, 5),
    right_columns = c(2, 6),
    estimate_label = "HR"
  )
