Get information for variable of interest (e.g., clinical endpoints) from long data frame of protocol- or result-related trial information as returned by dfTrials2Long. Parameters `valuename`, `wherename` and `wherevalue` are matched using Perl regular expressions and ignoring case.
Arguments
- df
A data frame (or tibble) with four columns (`_id`, `identifier`, `name`, `value`) as returned by dfTrials2Long
- valuename
A character string for the name of the field that holds the value of the variable of interest (e.g., a summary measure such as "endPoints.*tendencyValue.value")
- wherename
(optional) A character string to identify the variable of interest among those that repeatedly occur in a trial record (e.g., "endPoints.endPoint.title")
- wherevalue
(optional) A character string with the value of the variable identified by `wherename` (e.g., "response")
Value
A data frame (or tibble, if tibble is loaded)
that includes the values of interest, with columns
`_id`, `identifier`, `name`, `value` and `where` (with the
contents of `wherevalue` found at `wherename`).
Contents of `value` are strings unless all its elements
are numbers. The `identifier` is generated by
function dfTrials2Long to identify matching elements,
e.g endpoint descriptions and measurements.
