R: Wrapper function for METRADISC method
METRADISCR Documentation

Wrapper function for METRADISC method

Description

This is a wrapper function for meta-analytical method called METRADISC that perform all steps of the analysis and return all the outputs in one line.

Usage

METRADISC(data, varname, nperm = 1000)

Arguments

data

MetaArray object

varname

Character String - name of one column in clinical data matrices to be used as class labels

nperm

Number of permutations for Monte Carlo permutation test, at least 1000 is suggested

Value

An object of class METRADISC.res containing

ranks

Ranks of the genes in each dataset

RQ

Average rank (R) and measure of heterogeneity (Q) for each gene

MCtest

Four p-values (for low and high R and low and high Q) for each gene as provided after Monte Carlo permutation test
