Calculate resistance of isolates
portion.RdThese functions can be used to calculate the (co-)resistance of microbial isolates (i.e. percentage of S, SI, I, IR or R). All functions support quasiquotation with pipes, can be used in dplyrs summarise and support grouped variables, see Examples.
portion_R and portion_IR can be used to calculate resistance, portion_S and portion_SI can be used to calculate susceptibility.
portion_R(..., minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, also_single_tested = FALSE) portion_IR(..., minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, also_single_tested = FALSE) portion_I(..., minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, also_single_tested = FALSE) portion_SI(..., minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, also_single_tested = FALSE) portion_S(..., minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, also_single_tested = FALSE) portion_df(data, translate_ab = "name", language = get_locale(), minimum = 30, as_percent = FALSE, combine_IR = FALSE)
Arguments
| ... | one or more vectors (or columns) with antibiotic interpretations. They will be transformed internally with |
|---|---|
| minimum | the minimum allowed number of available (tested) isolates. Any isolate count lower than |
| as_percent | a logical to indicate whether the output must be returned as a hundred fold with % sign (a character). A value of |
| also_single_tested | a logical to indicate whether (in combination therapies) also observations should be included where not all antibiotics were tested, but at least one of the tested antibiotics contains a target interpretation (e.g. S in case of |
| data | a |
| translate_ab | a column name of the |
| language | language of the returned text, defaults to system language (see |
| combine_IR | a logical to indicate whether all values of I and R must be merged into one, so the output only consists of S vs. IR (susceptible vs. non-susceptible) |

Value
Double or, when as_percent = TRUE, a character.
Details
Remember that you should filter your table to let it contain only first isolates! Use first_isolate to determine them in your data set.
These functions are not meant to count isolates, but to calculate the portion of resistance/susceptibility. Use the count functions to count isolates. Low counts can infuence the outcome - these portion functions may camouflage this, since they only return the portion albeit being dependent on the minimum parameter.
portion_df takes any variable from data that has an "rsi" class (created with as.rsi) and calculates the portions R, I and S. The resulting tidy data (see Source) data.frame will have three rows (S/I/R) and a column for each variable with class "rsi".
To calculate the probability (p) of susceptibility of one antibiotic, we use this formula:
For two antibiotics:
For three antibiotics:
And so on.
