Changelog • metalite.ae

metalite.ae 0.1.4

CRAN release: 2026-08-29

The new gt_ae_specific() function is developed to output AE specific tables in gt format (#235, thanks to @LittleBeannie).
The new gt_ae_summary() function renders formatted adverse event summaries as gt tables, including titles, treatment-group spanners, footnotes, and source notes (#215, thanks to @ginnaram13).
rate_compare() and rate_compare_sum() now accept a bisection argument to control the number of sections used by the bisection method (#221, thanks to @lm3388).
The analysis argument is now required by all tlf_*() functions so that table titles are generated from the selected analysis metadata (#207, thanks to @lm3388).
meta_ae_example() is no longer exported. Package examples now construct metadata directly from the example datasets in forestly (#229, thanks to @LittleBeannie).
Added interactive AE listing workflow support with new format_ae_listing() and react_ae_listing() functions for structured listing formatting and reactable-based rendering (#239, thanks to @LittleBeannie).

format_ae_summary() now uses parameter labels when custom parameters do not define summ_row, preventing row-name and summary-data length mismatches (#224, thanks to @LittleBeannie).
gt_ae_summary() now supports missing source notes and footnotes without passing NULL to gt::md() (#226, thanks to @LittleBeannie).
prepare_ae_specific() now preserves SOC and preferred-term row ordering when the data exceed the previous fixed ordering placeholder (#214, thanks to @ginnaram13).

The metalite_ae_adexsum example dataset has been expanded for adverse event forest plot workflows (#220, thanks to @lm3388).
Unused arguments and R CMD check warnings in gt_ae_summary() and prepare_ae_specific() have been removed (#232, thanks to @fukuhiro2023).
Package examples now use direct, reproducible metadata definitions based on forestly example data (#229, thanks to @LittleBeannie and @fukuhiro2023).
Speed up the bisection confidence-interval search in rate_compare_sum() (and therefore rate_compare() and extend_ae_specific_inference()) by reusing shared interval endpoints and hoisting loop-invariant quantities out of the objective function; results are unchanged up to floating-point tolerance (#253, thanks to @yihui).
Further speed up unstratified confidence intervals in extend_ae_specific_inference() by computing every term’s interval in one vectorized pass: the bisection grid is evaluated across all terms at once and every sign-change bracket is refined by a single vectorized bisection loop, instead of scanning the grid separately for each term. Stratified inputs still use rate_compare_sum() per term. Results are unchanged up to floating-point tolerance (#257, thanks to @yihui).

The adverse event vignettes and pkgdown site have been reorganized, with new articles for custom columns, filtering and sorting, and mock tables (#204, #231, thanks to @lm3388 and @LittleBeannie).
Added a new vignette for interactive AE listing tables and updated listing workflow documentation and pkgdown references for the new listing functions (#239, thanks to @LittleBeannie).
Added a new vignette demonstrating how one metadata object can generate multiple AE outputs (summary, specific, listing, and forest plot), and updated pkgdown article navigation for this workflow (#239, thanks to @LittleBeannie).

CRAN release: 2024-10-23

format_ae_specific() now has new arguments filter_method and filter_criteria to control displayed rows in a table, sort_order and sort_column to sort an output table, and hide_soc_stats to control display of statistics for SOC rows (#191, #192, #203, thanks to @fukuhiro2023).
Add data/metalite_ae_adesxum.rda (#189).
Add event counts to avg_count() and extend_ae_specific_events() (#194).

Fix bug to correctly display the order of means of duration and means of event count in extend_ae_specific_events() and extend_ae_specific_duration()(#194, #199).
Fix bug to avoid an error when a treatment group has no observation to calculate event counts and duration in avg_event() and avg_duration() (#199).
Fix bug to avoid an error when there is no observation to summarize event counts and duration in avg_event(), avg_duration(), extend_ae_specific_events() and extend_ae_specific_duration() (#200).

Update fmt_est() to change display of missing values from a character string of “NA” to a blank in an output table (#194).
Update extend_ae_specific_inference() to pass additional arguments to rate_compare_sum() (#197).

CRAN release: 2024-04-16

Fix bug to avoid warning messages when no comparison variables are requested in format_ae_specific() (#135).
Fix bug to align the row order of output data with the input one in avg_event() and avg_duration() (#136).
Fix bug to check missing grouping variable after a subset of input data in prepare_ae_specific() (#137).
Fix bug to display item if AE term has NA in prepare_ae_specific() (#166).
Fix bug to correctly assign treatment labels when a treatment variable has NA (#179).
