scatterplot_sucra {rnmamod} | R Documentation |
Scatterplot of SUCRA values
Description
Creates a scatterplot of the SUCRA values from the network meta-analysis and the network meta-regression for a specified level or value of the investigated covariate.
Usage
scatterplot_sucra(full, reg, cov_name = "covariate value", drug_names)
Arguments
full |
|
reg |
An object of S3 class |
cov_name |
A character or text to indicate the name of the covariate. |
drug_names |
A vector of labels with the name of the interventions in
the order they appear in the argument |
Details
The names of the interventions appear above each point in the plot. Three coloured rectangles are drawn in the scatterplot: a red rectangle for SUCRA values up to 50%, a yellow rectangular for SUCRA values between 50% and 80%, and a green rectangle for SUCRA values over 80%. Interventions falling at the green area are considered as the highest ranked interventions, whilst interventions falling at the red area are considered as the lowest ranked interventions.
scatterplot_sucra
is integrated in metareg_plot
.
scatterplot_sucra
can be used only for a network of interventions.
Otherwise, the execution of the function will be stopped and an error
message will be printed on the R console.
Value
A scatterplot of the SUCRA values under the network meta-analysis (y-axis) against the SUCRA values under the network meta-regression (x-axis) for a specified level or value of the investigated covariate.
