How to Generate the Final Report

The final report can be generated using the contents of this directory:

• The Makefile contains rules for generating targets that culminate in the Final Report.
• The Code folder contains various R scripts for different aspects of the analysis.
• The Output folder contains various results from different analyses that will be included when building the final report.
• The Data folder contains the raw data that will be used in the analysis.

Instructions for creating the Final Report:

1. "make" Output/Clinic_Obesity_Prevalence.rds.
2. "make" Output/Table1.rds.
3. "make" Output/Figure1.rds.
4. "make" report.html.

Code Description

Code/01_Calculate_Obesity_Prevalence.R

• Calculates the prevalence of obesity among Local Pediatric Primary Care Clinic patients for each year (2016-2023).
• Saves prevalence information as an .rds object in the Output/ folder.
• Calculated prevalence information is later used to create Figure 1.

Code/02_Make_Table1.R

• Creates Table 1 which displays weight status of various sociodemographic groups in the Local Pediatric Primary Care Clinic patient population in 2023. The table displays the number (and row percents) of patients in each weight status category in various groups.
• Saves table information as an .rds object in the Output/ folder.

Code/03_Make_Figure1.R

• Creates Figure 1 which displays prevalence of obesity in the Local Pediatric Primary Care Clinic for each year 2016-2023.
• Saves figure information as an .rds object in the Output/ folder.

Code/04_Render_Report.R

• Creates the Final Report which includes introductory information and the results (Table 1 and Figure 1).
• Rendered report is saved as an .html file in the main folder.
