The scientific community at the global level is fast becoming aware of the rising use of open-source tools such as R and Python for data analysis. Unfortunately, in spite of the awareness, the conversion of the intrigue to the practical knowledge in utilization of the open-source tools for routine day-to-day data analysis is seriously lacking both among physicians and medical scientists. This book enables physician-scientists to understand the complexity of explaining a programming/ data-analytic language to a healthcare professional and medical scientist. It simplifies and explains how R can be used in medical projects and routine office works. It also talks about the methodologies to convert the knowledge to practice. The book starts with the introduction to the structure of R programming language in the initial chapters, followed with explanations of utilizing R in the basics of data analysis like data importing and exporting, operations on a data frame, parametric and non-parametric tests, regression, sample size calculation, survival analysis, receiver operator characteristic analysis (ROC) and techniques of randomization. Each chapter provides a brief introduction to the involved statistics, for example, dataset, working codes, and a section explaining the codes. In addition to it, a chapter has been dedicated to describing the ways to generate plots using R.
Ross Ihaka and Robert Gentleman developed a statistical analysis and graphics system known as R, which is a dialect of the language S. R is regarded as both a language and software. It is a powerful open-source programming language and environment for statistical computing, and graphics offers a versatile toolkit that resonates particularly well with the complex and data-intensive nature of medical research. The application of R language in medical research has become indispensable, addressing the growing need for sophisticated data analysis and statistical modeling in the healthcare domain.
R facilitates the creation of reproducible and transparent analyses, which is critical for ensuring the reliability of findings. Its graphics and visualization capabilities enable researchers to present complex data in a comprehensible manner, aiding in the communication of results to both scientific audiences and healthcare practitioners. The collaborative nature of R’s open-source community further enhances its appeal in medical research. Researchers can access a vast repository of packages and scripts developed by the global community, accelerating the implementation of cutting-edge methodologies and ensuring that the latest statistical techniques are readily available for analysis in the healthcare domain. In a nutshell, learning R can be essential for several reasons, particularly for individuals involved in data analysis, statistics, and programming.
R is a programming language, and learning it can provide a strong foundation in programming concepts and data manipulation. This knowledge can be advantageous for individuals interested in software development, especially in roles that involve data-centric applications.
