Make facet plot of raw data

Usage

make_facet_plot(
  data,
  plot_category,
  plot_treatment,
  plot_sex,
  pruned = "no",
  current_type = "eEPSC",
  y_variable = "P1",
  x_label = "Time (min)",
  treatment_colour_theme,
  ggplot_theme = patchclampplotteR_facet_theme()
)

Arguments

data: A dataframe containing the raw evoked current data generated from make_normalized_EPSC_data(). If pruned = "yes" you must use the $individual_cells component of a pruned dataset.
plot_category: A numeric value specifying the category, which can be used to differentiate different protocol types. In the sample dataset for this package, plot_category == 2 represents experiments where insulin was applied continuously after a 5-minute baseline period.
plot_treatment: A character value specifying the treatment you would like to plot (e.g. "Control"). plot_treatment represents antagonists that were present on the brain slice, or the animals were fasted, etc.
plot_sex: A character value ("Male" or "Female") corresponding to the sex you would like to plot.
pruned: A character value ("yes" or "no") specifying if the data are pruned. The plot will then present the data as means with error bars.
current_type: A character describing the current type. Allowed values are "eEPSC" or "sEPSC".
y_variable: A character value specifying the variable to be plotted on the y-axis. For evoked currents (current_type = "eEPSC"), the available y_variables are "P1", "P1_transformed", "mean_P1" and "PPR". Note: If you select "mean_P1", you must set the pruned argument to "yes". For spontaneous currents (current_type = "sEPSC"), the available y_variables are "amplitude" or "frequency".
x_label: A character value specifying the x-axis label. Defaults to "Time (min)".
treatment_colour_theme: A dataframe containing treatment names and their associated colours as hex values. See sample_treatment_names_and_colours for an example of what this dataframe should look like.
ggplot_theme: The name of a ggplot theme or your custom theme. This will be added as a layer to a ggplot object. The default is patchclampplotteR_theme(), but other valid entries include theme_bw(), theme_classic() or the name of a custom ggplot theme stored as an object.

Value

A ggplot object, which is a facetted plot of the raw data.
