The project allows to create a data book, fact sheet in Word and generate forest plots in vector formats.\n\n-   Scripts were written on the basis of Epi Info programmes/scripts and named respectively\n\n-   `STEPS.mdb` data file for MDA is needed for the project and should be placed in the root folder\n\n-   `LoadData.R` script (located in the root folder) is used for manually adjusting the inclusion of disaggregations (by urban/rural and region), project title and authors\n\n-   Code in the project contains comments and functions have descriptions of arguments\n\n-   Some scripts in modules are tailored to the country-specific settings\n\n-   It is suggested to use RStudio software and `stepsMDA2021.Rproj` file to load the project\n\n-   Project has been tested on MacOS 12.3 and Windows 10/11, using R version 4.1.3\n\n-   MS Office with Access is required to be installed for loading the MDB file\n\n    -   Use the 32-bit version of R when MS Office is also 32-bit\n\n## Contents\n\nThe WHO STEPS in MDA includes the following modules:\n\n1.  Demographic Information\n\n2.  Tobacco Use\n\n3.  Tobacco Policy\n\n4.  Alcohol Consumption\n\n5.  Diet (abridged version)\n\n6.  Physical Activity\n\n7.  History of Raised Blood Pressure\n\n8.  History of Diabetes\n\n9.  History of Raised Total Cholesterol\n\n10. History of Cardiovascular Diseases\n\n11. Lifestyle Advice\n\n12. Cervical Cancer Screening\n\n13. Physical Measurements\n\n14. Biochemical Measurements\n\n15. Cardiovascular disease risk\n\n16. Summary of Combined Risk Factors\n\n17. Oral Health\n\n18. Depression\n\n## Usage\n\n### Data book\n\nIndividual Rmd files are used to create Word documents for each module (located in `DataBook/` folder).\n\n### Fact sheet\n\nThe `factsheet.R` script (located in `FactSheet/` folder) is used for creating a Word document out of CSV files that are written to the folder when Rmd files are run.\n\n### Forest plots\n\nThe `make_plots.R` script (located in `Plots/` folder) is used for creating forest plots in PDF, SVG and EMF formats. The script creates an Rds data file with a function, containing all modules, loads the mapping XLSX of included indicators, and generates subsequent plots with a function. The XLSX mapping spreadsheet (located in `Plots/` folder) is used to manually adjust which indicators are included for plotting, using `include_in_analysis` variable (TRUE or FALSE).\n\n## Getting help\n\nIf you encounter a clear bug, please file an issue with a minimal reproducible example on [GitHub](https://github.com/WorldHealthOrganization/stepsMDA2021/issues).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fstepsmda2021","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fstepsmda2021","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fworldhealthorganization%2Fstepsmda2021/lists"}
