## Exporting result objects
The `export` function allows us to export the generated result objects from `computePathways`. There are several arguments that we can change to alter the behavior, depending on what we are allowed to share.
### minCellCount and censorType
Let's say we are only able to share results of groups of subjects that have at least 5 subjects in them.
```{r minCellCount, eval=FALSE}
results <- export(
andromeda = defaultSettings,
minCellCount = 5
)
```
We can also choose between different methods how to handle pathways that fall below are specified `minCellCount`. These types are **1**) `"cellCount"`, **2**) `"remove"`, and **3**) `"mean"`.
We could say we want to censor all pathways that fall below the `minCellCount` to be censored _to_ the `minCellCount`.
```{r censorType_cellCount, eval=FALSE}
resultsA <- export(
andromeda = minEra60,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "minCellCount"
)
```
Or we could completely remove them
```{r censorType_remove, eval=FALSE}
resultsB <- export(
andromeda = minEra60,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "remove"
)
```
Or finally we can censor them as the mean of all the groups that fall below the `minCellCount`.
```{r censorType_mean, eval=FALSE}
resultsC <- export(
andromeda = minEra60,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "mean"
)
```
### ageWindow
We can also specify an age window.
```{r ageWindow3, eval=FALSE}
resultsD <- export(
andromeda = splitAcuteTherapy,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "mean",
ageWindow = 3
)
```
Or a collection of ages.
```{r ageWindowMultiple, eval=FALSE}
resultsE <- export(
andromeda = splitAcuteTherapy,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "mean",
ageWindow = c(0, 18, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 150)
)
```
### archiveName
Finally we can also specify an `archiveName` which is the name of a zip-file to zip all our output csv-files to.
```{r archiveName, eval=FALSE}
resultsF <- export(
andromeda = includeEndDate,
minCellCount = 5,
censorType = "mean",
ageWindow = 3,
archiveName = "output.zip"
)
```
## Patient-Level Export
We can also export **patient-level** data to use for internal analyses. Obviously these results are not share-able. Currently the results are only exported as csv-files.
```{r, eval=FALSE}
exportPatientLevel(
andromeda = outputEnv,
outputPath = tempdir()
)
```
We go into evaluating the output of the files in the **Evaluating Output** vignette.
