Added a second version of the ICD10-AM score including U codes to “increases the capture of some chronic conditions up to 15-fold”, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (#72, thanks to @DesiQuintans for contributing this);
Updated Swedish version of the Charlson comorbidity score according to the corrigendum published online at: https://doi.org/10.2147/CLEP.S425901;
Removed startup message highlighting changes in the package API introduced with {comorbidity} 1.0.0;
Updated hex sticker;
Minor improvements to {pkgdown} website accessibility;
Fixed invalid language field in DESCRIPTION file (#75).
Adjusted name of weights (leftover from #53, thanks @sciatro for reporting this). This bug did not seem to affect any calculation.
Updated CITATION file to use the new interface.
Some internal housekeeping (removed old documentation, updated GitHub actions to new version, etc.).
Updated maintainer e-mail.
Updated hex sticker.
Improved documentation for arguments of the
comorbidity()
and score()
functions (#61,
thanks @dsjoho).
Fixed broken references to the old vignettes’ names (#61, thanks @dsjoho).
Overall, package documentation has been tidied up a bunch.
The startup message pointing out changes in the API now appears less often (10% probability).
The copd
and ami
comorbidities for the
Charlson index have been renamed to cpd
and
mi
, respectively (#53, thanks @DrYan1102). Please be aware that this
might break some old code if you were selecting comorbidities by
name.
New dataset: ICD10-CM, 2022 version, named
icd10cm_2022
.
The startup message pointing out changes in the API now appears less often (40% probability).
Fixed a bug that was causing all comorbidities to be assigned a
value of one when there was missing data in the code
column
(#50), thanks @Chris-M-P for reporting this.
comorbidity
version 1.0.0 is a release that
substantially modifies and updates the package API. There are a lot of
improvements in terms of performance, supported algorithms, and
user-facing functions; see e.g. this thread on
GitHub. Specific user-facing changes, including examples of the new
API, are discussed in more detail here:
https://ellessenne.github.io/comorbidity/articles/C-changes.html
If required, you can revert to the previous release by installing
from GitHub:
remotes::install_github("ellessenne/comorbidity@0.5.3")
.
A startup message pointing out the changes in the API is now displayed with a 50% probability when attaching the package and will be removed in future releases.
New contributors: Sing Yi Chia and Edmund Teo.
comorbidity
now accepts data.table
objects as input (#23);
comorbidity
can deal with non-syntactically valid
names (#25);
Fixed coding typo in vignette (#10, #26);
Reduced number of random tests, as R CMD check was taking too long on some platforms getting killed on CRAN (as reported by Kurt Hornik).

deprecated; the dependency on reshape2

removed;
Fixed bugs introduced by switching to data.table

were expecting these specific names, now fixed and
behaves as expected.
comorbidity
is now 10+ times faster, thanks to Jonathan Williman contributing
code based on the data.table
package;
Fixed typo in vignette regarding weighting algorithm for the AHRQ Elixhauser comorbidity score (#14, thanks to @cornflakegrl);
Added pkgdown
website:
https://ellessenne.github.io/comorbidity.
Modified the behaviour of the assign0
argument after
further discussion with Anders Alexandersson in
Issue #9: now there is no default, forcing the user to decide whether to
apply a hierarchy of comorbidity codes or not. This will make the
algorithm more transparent to the end user, allowing an informed choice.
See ?comorbidity::comorbidity
and
vignette("comorbidityscores", package = "comorbidity")
for
further details on the hierarchy being applied.
comorbidity
now returns two Elixhauser scores, one
computed using the algorithm of van Walraven et al. (2009) and
a second one computed using the AHRQ algorithm (Moore et al.,
2017). Thanks to Yumiko Abe-Jones for feedback and the discussion
regarding weighted Elixhauser scores.

vignette("comorbidityscores", package = "comorbidity")

.The score
argument from comorbidity
has
been split into score

. For instance,
the command
comorbidity(x = x, id = "id", code = "code", score = "charlson_icd10")
has to be modified as
r comorbidity(x = x, id = "id", code = "code", score = "charlson", icd = "icd10")
.
The default value of icd
is icd10
, for ICD-10

and
