#' Determine first (weighted) isolates
#'
#' Determine first (weighted) isolates of all microorganisms of every patient per episode and (if needed) per specimen type.
#' @param x a [`data.frame`] containing isolates.
#' @param col_date column name of the result date (or date that is was received on the lab), defaults to the first column of with a date class
#' @param col_patient_id column name of the unique IDs of the patients, defaults to the first column that starts with 'patient' or 'patid' (case insensitive)
#' @param col_mo column name of the IDs of the microorganisms (see [as.mo()]), defaults to the first column of class [`mo`]. Values will be coerced using [as.mo()].
#' @param col_testcode column name of the test codes. Use `col_testcode = NULL` to **not** exclude certain test codes (like test codes for screening). In that case `testcodes_exclude` will be ignored.
#' @param col_specimen column name of the specimen type or group
#' @param col_icu column name of the logicals (`TRUE`/`FALSE`) whether a ward or department is an Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
#' @param col_keyantibiotics column name of the key antibiotics to determine first *weighted* isolates, see [key_antibiotics()]. Defaults to the first column that starts with 'key' followed by 'ab' or 'antibiotics' (case insensitive). Use `col_keyantibiotics = FALSE` to prevent this.
#' @param episode_days episode in days after which a genus/species combination will be determined as 'first isolate' again. The default of 365 days is based on the guideline by CLSI, see Source.
#' @param testcodes_exclude character vector with test codes that should be excluded (case-insensitive)
#' @param icu_exclude logical whether ICU isolates should be excluded (rows with value `TRUE` in column `col_icu`)
#' @param specimen_group value in column `col_specimen` to filter on
#' @param type type to determine weighed isolates; can be `"keyantibiotics"` or `"points"`, see Details
#' @param ignore_I logical to determine whether antibiotic interpretations with `"I"` will be ignored when `type = "keyantibiotics"`, see Details
#' @param points_threshold points until the comparison of key antibiotics will lead to inclusion of an isolate when `type = "points"`, see Details
#' @param info print progress
#' @param include_unknown logical to determine whether 'unknown' microorganisms should be included too, i.e. microbial code `"UNKNOWN"`, which defaults to `FALSE`. For WHONET users, this means that all records with organism code `"con"` (*contamination*) will be excluded at default. Isolates with a microbial ID of `NA` will always be excluded as first isolate.
#' @param ... parameters passed on to the [first_isolate()] function
#' @details **WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT** \cr
#' To conduct an analysis of antimicrobial resistance, you should only include the first isolate of every patient per episode [(ref)](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17304462). If you would not do this, you could easily get an overestimate or underestimate of the resistance of an antibiotic. Imagine that a patient was admitted with an MRSA and that it was found in 5 different blood cultures the following week. The resistance percentage of oxacillin of all *S. aureus* isolates would be overestimated, because you included this MRSA more than once. It would be [selection bias](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_bias).
#'
#' All isolates with a microbial ID of `NA` will be excluded as first isolate.
#'
#' The functions [filter_first_isolate()] and [filter_first_weighted_isolate()] are helper functions to quickly filter on first isolates. The function [filter_first_isolate()] is essentially equal to:
#' ```
#' x %>%
#' mutate(only_firsts = first_isolate(x, ...)) %>%
#' filter(only_firsts == TRUE) %>%
#' select(-only_firsts)
#' ```
#' The function [filter_first_weighted_isolate()] is essentially equal to:
#' ```
#' x %>%
#' mutate(keyab = key_antibiotics(.)) %>%
#' mutate(only_weighted_firsts = first_isolate(x,
#' col_keyantibiotics = "keyab", ...)) %>%
#' filter(only_weighted_firsts == TRUE) %>%
#' select(-only_weighted_firsts)
#' ```
#' @section Key antibiotics:
#' There are two ways to determine whether isolates can be included as first *weighted* isolates which will give generally the same results:
#'
#' 1. Using `type = "keyantibiotics"` and parameter `ignore_I`
#'
#' Any difference from S to R (or vice versa) will (re)select an isolate as a first weighted isolate. With `ignore_I = FALSE`, also differences from I to S|R (or vice versa) will lead to this. This is a reliable method and 30-35 times faster than method 2. Read more about this in the [key_antibiotics()] function.
#'
#' 2. Using `type = "points"` and parameter `points_threshold`
#'
#' A difference from I to S|R (or vice versa) means 0.5 points, a difference from S to R (or vice versa) means 1 point. When the sum of points exceeds `points_threshold`, which default to `2`, an isolate will be (re)selected as a first weighted isolate.

#' @examples
#' # `example_isolates` is a dataset available in the AMR package.
#' # See ?example_isolates.
#'
#' library(dplyr)
#' # Filter on first isolates:
#' example_isolates %>%
#' mutate(first_isolate = first_isolate(.,
#' col_date = "date",
#' col_patient_id = "patient_id",
#' col_mo = "mo")) %>%
#' filter(first_isolate == TRUE)
#'
#' # Which can be shortened to:
#' example_isolates %>%
#' filter_first_isolate()
#' # or for first weighted isolates:
#' example_isolates %>%
#' filter_first_weighted_isolate()
#'
#' # Now let's see if first isolates matter:
#' A <- example_isolates %>%
#' group_by(hospital_id) %>%
#' summarise(count = n_rsi(GEN), # gentamicin availability
#' resistance = resistance(GEN)) # gentamicin resistance
#'
#' B <- example_isolates %>%
#' filter_first_weighted_isolate() %>% # the 1st isolate filter
#' group_by(hospital_id) %>%
#' summarise(count = n_rsi(GEN), # gentamicin availability
#' resistance = resistance(GEN)) # gentamicin resistance
#'
#' # Have a look at A and B.
#' # B is more reliable because every isolate is only counted once.
#' # Gentamicin resitance in hospital D appears to be 3.1% higher than
#' # when you (erroneously) would have used all isolates for analysis.
