rspiro - Implementation of Spirometry Equations

Implementation of various spirometry equations in R, currently the GLI-2012 (Global Lung Initiative; Quanjer et al. 2012 <doi:10.1183/09031936.00080312>), the race-neutral GLI global 2022 (Global Lung Initiative; Bowerman et al. 2023 <doi:10.1164/rccm.202205-0963OC>), the NHANES3 (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey; Hankinson et al. 1999 <doi:10.1164/ajrccm.159.1.9712108>) and the JRS 2014 (Japanese Respiratory Society; Kubota et al. 2014 <doi:10.1016/j.resinv.2014.03.003>) equations. Also the GLI-2017 diffusing capacity equations <doi:10.1183/13993003.00010-2017> are implemented. Contains user-friendly functions to calculate predicted and LLN (Lower Limit of Normal) values for different spirometric parameters such as FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second), FVC (Forced Vital Capacity), etc, and to convert absolute spirometry measurements to percent (%) predicted and z-scores.

miniMeta - Web Application to Run Meta-Analyses

Shiny web application to run meta-analyses. Essentially a graphical front-end to package 'meta' for R. Can be useful as an educational tool, and for quickly analyzing and sharing meta-analyses. Provides output to quickly fill in GRADE (Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations) Summary-of-Findings tables. Importantly, it allows further processing of the results inside R, in case more specific analyses are needed.
