The Shiny dashboard

The ZHN Auditor dashboard is the interactive front end of zhncommandR: it loads a tumour-documentation workbook, computes the quality, OPS-8-544, OPS-1-941, survival, oncoprint and cytogenetics views live, and lets an auditor explore and export them. Everything it shows is computed by the package’s exported functions — see vignette("figures-and-tables") for the same outputs in code.

Launching

zhn_run_app()

With no file uploaded the app starts empty; click Beispieldaten laden to load the bundled synthetic cohort, or use Kohorten-Excel (.xlsx) hochladen to analyse your own workbook (canonical sheets Basisdaten, Komplexe Chemotherapie, Komplexe Diagnostik, with regex fallbacks). No data is written outside the session.

Layout

  • Left sidebar — branding and the light/dark toggle; the data source controls; a global transparent-background switch for the figures; and the global filters (treatment year, entity/coding, primary/patient case, in-house therapy) plus a free-text search that every tab respects.
  • Main area — a tab per analysis: Auditor-Dashboard (value boxes, the diagnosis and yearly bar charts, the quality-indicator table and auditor quick-questions), Patientenliste, Tumorboardbeschlüsse, Kaplan-Meier, OPS 8-544 Therapieblöcke, OPS 1-941 Diagnostik, Oncoprint Mutationen, Zytogenetik, Boxplots, and Methoden / Methods.

The interface is bilingual — the Deutsch / English switch retranslates the UI live (via shiny.i18n).

Figures: transparency and export

Every figure honours the global Transparenter Hintergrund switch (it drives both the on-screen plot and the exported file) and carries its own PNG (600 dpi) and PDF download buttons. PNGs are rendered with ragg, PDFs are vector with the Inter font embedded — paper-ready straight from the app.

The Kaplan-Meier tab

The survival tab is fully customizable. It opens on a displayable curve (overall survival, confidence interval, censoring marks and a numbers-at-risk table) and every element is an independent switch, grouped into Daten/Endpunkt, Statistik and Darstellung panels:

The Kaplan-Meier tab: curve, confidence interval, censoring marks and aligned risk table.

  • Statistics — confidence interval (90/95/99 %, log-log/log/plain), risk table (numbers at risk / censored / events), censoring marks, log-rank p-value (enabled with ≥ 2 groups), Cox hazard ratio with 95 % CI (exactly 2 groups) shown together with a cox.zph proportional-hazards check and a caution note when the assumption is violated, median-survival reference lines, and pairwise log-rank comparisons with Benjamini-Hochberg correction (> 2 groups, shown as a table).
  • Appearance — survival / percent / cumulative-incidence scale, x-axis break interval and maximum, legend position, and an editable title, subtitle and caption. The export filename is derived from the title.

The curve and its risk table are rendered with ggsurvfit and share one x-axis, so time t sits at the same position on the curve and in the table — in the live view and in the export.

Privacy

The app keeps everything in the session: uploaded files are read into memory, tumour-board decisions live in a reactiveVal and are only persisted via an explicit CSV download, and the Hugo Coder system-font styling makes no external font or analytics calls. The bundled example is fully synthetic. For the container deployment (Docker + Shiny Server behind Caddy/TLS) see the package’s docker/ directory.
