Function to return diagnostic tables from a SEQuential object

Usage

Arguments

SEQoutput object

Value

A named list of diagnostic tables, each broken down by baseline treatment arm. The "unique" and "non-unique" variants count different things:

• outcome.unique / outcome.nonunique: distinct subjects who had the outcome vs. the total number of outcome events. These coincide for a one-time (terminal) outcome, since each subject contributes at most one event row.

• followup.unique / followup.nonunique: distinct subjects contributing follow-up vs. the total number of person-time intervals (expanded rows). The non-unique count is much larger because each subject contributes one row per follow-up period; it is the denominator that, with outcome.nonunique, gives the per-arm event rate.
