Returns the top-N most frequent distinct values for a column in an
OMOP CDM table, along with their counts. This is useful for profiling
categorical or low-cardinality columns such as type_concept_id
or unit_concept_id. Counts below the disclosure threshold are
suppressed, and concept names are resolved where available.
Usage
ds.omop.value.counts(
table,
column,
top_n = 20,
concept_id = NULL,
cohort = NULL,
scope = c("per_site", "pooled"),
pooling_policy = "strict",
symbol = "omop",
conns = NULL,
execute = TRUE
)Arguments
- table
Character; the CDM table name (e.g.,
"condition_occurrence").- column
Character; the column to count distinct values for (e.g.,
"condition_type_concept_id").- top_n
Integer; the number of most frequent values to return (default: 20).
- concept_id
Integer or NULL; optional concept ID to restrict rows to a single concept of the table before counting values (e.g., the
value_as_concept_idcategories for one measurement concept). Default: NULL for all rows. The server applies the same disclosure controls to the concept-filtered population.- cohort
Cohort reference (a
dsomop_cohort_handle, acohort_definition_id, or a server-side cohort table name), or NULL.- scope
Character;
"per_site"(default) or"pooled".- pooling_policy
Character;
"strict"(default) or"pooled_only_ok".- symbol
Character; the session symbol (default:
"omop").- conns
DSI connection object(s) or NULL to use the session default.
- execute
Logical; if
FALSE, return a dry-run result containing only the generated call code (default:TRUE).
