Arguments

journal

String indicating the journal theme to follow. One of c("jama", "lancet", "nejm", "qjecon"). Details below.

set_theme

Logical indicating whether to set the theme. Default is TRUE. When FALSE the named list of theme elements is returned invisibly

font_size

Numeric font size for compact theme. Default is 13 for gt tables, and 8 for all other output types

print_engine

String indicating the print method. Must be one of "gt", "kable", "kable_extra", "flextable", "tibble"

language

String indicating language. Must be one of "de" (German), "en" (English), "es" (Spanish), "fr" (French), "gu" (Gujarati), "hi" (Hindi), "is" (Icelandic),"ja" (Japanese), "kr" (Korean), "nl" (Dutch), "mr" (Marathi), "no" (Norwegian), "pt" (Portuguese), "se" (Swedish), "zh-c,n" (Chinese Simplified), "zh-tw" (Chinese Traditional)

decimal.mark

The character to be used to indicate the numeric decimal point. Default is "." or getOption("OutDec")

big.mark

Character used between every 3 digits to separate hundreds/thousands/millions/etc. Default is ",", except when decimal.mark = "," when the default is a space.

iqr.sep

string indicating separator for the default IQR in tbl_summary(). If decimal.mark= is NULL, iqr.sep= is ", ". The comma separator, however, can look odd when decimal.mark = ",". In this case the argument will default to an en dash

ci.sep

string indicating separator for confidence intervals. If decimal.mark= is NULL, ci.sep= is ", ". The comma separator, however, can look odd when decimal.mark = ",". In this case the argument will default to an en dash

statistic

Default statistic continuous variables

Themes

  • theme_gtsummary_journal(journal=)

    • "jama" The Journal of the American Medical Association

    • "lancet" The Lancet

      • Use mid-point as decimal separator; round large p-values to 2 decimal places; separate confidence intervals with "ll to ul".

      • tbl_summary() Doesn't show percent symbol; use em-dash to separate IQR

    • "nejm" The New England Journal of Medicine

      • Round large p-values to 2 decimal places; separate confidence intervals with "ll to ul".

      • tbl_summary() Doesn't show percent symbol; use em-dash to separate IQR

    • "qjecon" The Quarterly Journal of Economics

  • theme_gtsummary_compact()

    • tables printed with gt, flextable, kableExtra, or huxtable will be compact with smaller font size and reduced cell padding

  • theme_gtsummary_printer(print_engine=)

    • Use this theme to permanently change the default printer.

  • theme_gtsummary_continuous2()

    • Set all continuous variables to summary type "continuous2" by default

  • theme_gtsummary_mean_sd()

    • Set default summary statistics to mean and standard deviation in tbl_summary()

    • Set default continuous tests in add_p() to t-test and ANOVA

  • theme_gtsummary_eda()

    • Set all continuous variables to summary type "continuous2" by default

    • In tbl_summary() show the median, mean, IQR, SD, and Range by default

Use reset_gtsummary_theme() to restore the default settings
