This function translates a character vector of terms from one nomenclature to another using a mapping file.
Usage
translate_terms(
input_terms,
mapping_col = "PKNCA",
target_col = "PPTESTCD",
metadata = pknca_cdisc_terms
)
Arguments
- input_terms
A character vector of terms to be translated.
- mapping_col
Character indicating the column name in the metadata file of the input terms. Default is "PKNCA".
- target_col
Character indicating the column name in the metadata file of the target terms. Default is "PPTESTCD".
- metadata
Dataset used to do the mapping that contains the mapping and target columns.
Value
A character vector of translated terms. Input terms not available in mapping_col will be returned with the same value.
Examples
input_terms <- c("adj.r.squared", "ae", "nonexistent_term")
translate_terms(input_terms)
#> [1] "R2ADJ" "RCAMINT" "nonexistent_term"
