# Plots

visOmopResults provides plotting tools that simplify visualising data in `<summarised_result>` format while also being compatible with other formats.

    library(visOmopResults)

## Plotting with a `<summarised_result>`

For this vignette, we will use the `penguins` dataset from the palmerpenguins package. This dataset will be summarised using the `PatientProfiles::summariseResult()` function, which aggregates the data into the `<summarised_result>` format:

    library(PatientProfiles)
    library(palmerpenguins)
    library(dplyr)

    summariseIsland <- function(island) {
      penguins |>
        filter(.data$island == .env$island) |>
        summariseResult(
          group = "species",
          includeOverallGroup = TRUE,
          strata = list("year", "sex", c("year", "sex")),
          variables = c(
            "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "flipper_length_mm", "body_mass_g",
            "sex"),
          estimates = c(
            "median", "q25", "q75", "min", "max", "count_missing", "count",
            "percentage", "density")
        ) |>
        suppressMessages() |>
        mutate(cdm_name = island)
    }

    penguinsSummary <- bind(
      summariseIsland("Torgersen"),
      summariseIsland("Biscoe"),
      summariseIsland("Dream")
    )

### Plotting principles for `<summarised_result>` objects

1) Tidy Format
When working with `<summarised_result>` objects, the data is internally converted into the tidy format before plotting. This is an important distinction because columns such as `strata_name` and `strata_level` from the original `<summarised_result>` cannot be used directly with the plotting functions. Instead, tidy columns should be referenced.

For more information about the tidy format, refer to the omopgenerics package vignette on `<summarised_result>` here.

To identify the available tidy columns, use the `tidyColumns()` function:

    tidyColumns(penguinsSummary)
    #>  [1] "cdm_name"       "species"        "year"           "sex"
    #>  [5] "variable_name"  "variable_level" "count"          "median"
    #>  [9] "q25"            "q75"            "min"            "max"
    #> [13] "count_missing"  "density_x"      "density_y"      "percentage"

2) Subsetting Variables
Before calling the plotting functions, always subset the `<summarised_result>` object to the variable of interest. Avoid combining results from unrelated variables, as this may lead to NA values in the tidy format, which can affect your plots.

### Scatter plot

We can create simple scatter plots using the `plotScatter()` let’s see some examples:

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "bill_depth_mm") |>
      filterStrata(year != "overall", sex == "overall") |>
      scatterPlot(
        x = "year",
        y = "median",
        line = TRUE,
        point = TRUE,
        ribbon = FALSE,
        facet = "cdm_name",
        colour = "species"
      )

We can use the argument `style` to update the theme of the plot to either the visOmopResults default style, or our darwin style. For darwin style, if we want to use the official “Calibri” font, we will need first the package `extrafont`. We can get the package and load the font using the function `requireExtrafont`.

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name %in% c("bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm"))|>
      filterStrata(year == "overall", sex == "overall") |>
      filterGroup(species != "overall") |>
      scatterPlot(
        x = "density_x",
        y = "density_y",
        line = TRUE,
        point = FALSE,
        ribbon = FALSE,
        facet = cdm_name ~ variable_name,
        colour = "species",
        style = "darwin"
      )

Otherwise, the style can be applied afterwards with the function `themeVisOmop`. Not only that, but the returned plot can be futher customised with the usual ggplot2 functionalities:

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "flipper_length_mm") |>
      filterStrata(year != "overall", sex %in% c("female", "male")) |>
      scatterPlot(
        x = c("year", "sex"),
        y = "median",
        ymin = "q25",
        ymax = "q75",
        line = FALSE,
        point = TRUE,
        ribbon = FALSE,
        facet = cdm_name ~ species,
        colour = "sex",
        group = c("year", "sex")
      )  +
      themeVisOmop(fontsizeRef = 13) +
      ggplot2::coord_flip() +
      ggplot2::labs(y = "Flipper length (mm)") +
      ggplot2::theme(axis.text.x = ggplot2::element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(
        variable_name %in% c("flipper_length_mm", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm")
      ) |>
      filterStrata(sex == "overall") |>
      scatterPlot(
        x = "year",
        y = "median",
        ymin = "min",
        ymax = "max",
        line = FALSE,
        point = TRUE,
        ribbon = TRUE,
        facet = cdm_name ~ species,
        colour = "variable_name",
        group = c("variable_name")
      ) +
      themeVisOmop(style = "darwin", fontsizeRef = 12) +
      ggplot2::theme(axis.text.x = ggplot2::element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))

### Bar plot

Let’s create a bar plots:

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "number records") |>
      filterGroup(species != "overall") |>
      filterStrata(sex != "overall", year != "overall") |>
      barPlot(
        x = "year",
        y = "count",
        colour = "sex",
        facet = cdm_name ~ species
      ) +
      themeVisOmop(fontsizeRef = 12)

### Box plot

Let’s create some box plots of their body mass:

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "body_mass_g") |>
      boxPlot(x = "year", facet = species ~ cdm_name, colour = "sex", style = "default")

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "body_mass_g") |>
      filterGroup(species != "overall") |>
      filterStrata(sex %in% c("female", "male"), year != "overall") |>
      boxPlot(x = "cdm_name", facet = c("sex", "species"), colour = "year") +
      themeVisOmop(fontsizeRef = 11)

Note that as we didnt specify x there is no levels in the x axis, but box plots are produced anyway.

## Plotting style

The package provides support for standard plot themes, which can be applied either after plot creation using the function `themeVisOmop()`, or directly at the time of creation via the `style` argument. To see available pre-defined styles use `plotStyle()`.

For creating multiple plots with the same style, you can use `setGlobalPlotOptions()` to apply a default style to all subsequent plots, unless a different style is specified in a specific function call.

## Plotting with a `<data.frame>`

Plotting functions can also be used with the usual `<data.frame>`. In this case we will use the tidy format of `penguinsSummary`.

    penguinsTidy <- penguinsSummary |>
      filter(!estimate_name %in% c("density_x", "density_y")) |> # remove density for simplicity
      tidy()
    penguinsTidy |> glimpse()
    #> Rows: 720
    #> Columns: 14
    #> $ cdm_name       <chr> "Torgersen", "Torgersen", "Torgersen", "Torgersen", "To…
    #> $ species        <chr> "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", …
    #> $ year           <chr> "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", …
    #> $ sex            <chr> "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", "overall", …
    #> $ variable_name  <chr> "number records", "bill_length_mm", "bill_depth_mm", "f…
    #> $ variable_level <chr> NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, "female", "male", NA, NA, NA, NA, N…
    #> $ count          <int> 52, NA, NA, NA, NA, 24, 23, 5, 20, 16, 16, NA, NA, NA, …
    #> $ median         <int> NA, 38, 18, 191, 3700, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 38, 38, …
    #> $ q25            <int> NA, 36, 17, 187, 3338, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 37, 35, …
    #> $ q75            <int> NA, 41, 19, 195, 4000, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 39, 41, …
    #> $ min            <int> NA, 33, 15, 176, 2900, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 34, 33, …
    #> $ max            <int> NA, 46, 21, 210, 4700, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 46, 45, …
    #> $ count_missing  <int> NA, 1, 1, 1, 1, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, …
    #> $ percentage     <dbl> NA, NA, NA, NA, NA, 46.153846, 44.230769, 9.615385, NA,…

Using this tidy format, we can replicate plots. For instance, we recreate the previous example:

    penguinsTidy |>
      filter(
        variable_name == "body_mass_g",
        species != "overall",
        sex %in% c("female", "male"),
        year != "overall"
      ) |>
      boxPlot(x = "cdm_name", facet = sex ~ species, colour = "year", style = "darwin")

## Custom plotting

The tidy format is very useful to apply any other custom ggplot2 function that we may be interested on:

    library(ggplot2)
    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(variable_name == "number records") |>
      tidy() |>
      ggplot(aes(x = year, y = sex, fill = count, label = count)) +
      themeVisOmop() +
      geom_tile() +
      scale_fill_viridis_c(trans = "log") +
      geom_text() +
      facet_grid(cdm_name ~ species) +
      ggplot2::theme(axis.text.x = ggplot2::element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))

## Combine with `ggplot2`

The plotting functions are a wrapper around the ggplot2 package, outputs of the plotting functions can be later customised with ggplot2 and similar tools. For example we can use `ggplot2::labs()` to change the labels and `ggplot2::theme()` to move the location of the legend.

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(
        group_level != "overall",
        strata_name == "year &&& sex",
        !grepl("NA", strata_level),
        variable_name == "body_mass_g") |>
      boxPlot(x = "species", facet = cdm_name ~ sex, colour = "year") +
      themeVisOmop(fontsizeRef = 12) +
      ylim(c(0, 6500)) +
      labs(x = "My custom x label")

You can also use `ggplot2::ggsave()` to later save one of this plots into ‘.png’ file.

    ggsave(
      "figure8.png", plot = last_plot(), device = "png", width = 15, height = 12,
      units = "cm", dpi = 300)

## Combine with `plotly`

To make a plot interactive, the package can convernt ggplots to `<plotly>` by changing the plot type argument

    penguinsSummary |>
      filter(
        group_level != "overall",
        strata_name == "year &&& sex",
        !grepl("NA", strata_level),
        variable_name == "body_mass_g") |>
      boxPlot(x = "species", facet = cdm_name ~ sex, colour = "year", type = "plotly") +
      ylim(c(0, 6500)) +
      labs(x = "My custom x label")
