A Comprehensive Collection of Cardiovascular and Heart Disease Datasets
Overview
Offers a diverse collection of datasets focused on cardiovascular and heart disease research, including heart failure, myocardial infarction, aortic dissection, transplant outcomes, cardiovascular risk factors, drug efficacy, and mortality trends. Designed for researchers, clinicians, epidemiologists, and data scientists, the package features clinical, epidemiological, and simulated datasets covering a wide range of conditions and treatments such as statins, anticoagulants, and beta blockers. It supports analyses related to disease progression, treatment effects, rehospitalization, and public health outcomes across various cardiovascular patient populations.
Breaking Changes
view_datasets()was renamed toview_datasets_CardioDataSets()to avoid naming conflicts with other packages and improve function identification.
