Cody,

How amazing that SAS is still used to produce reports that reviewers hate and that requires tedious low-level programming. R + LaTeX has it all over that approach IMHO. We have used that combination very successfully for several data and safety monitoring reporting tasks for clinical trials for the pharmaceutical industry.

I used to work for a research group that also used R + LaTeX to produce DSMB reports for clinical trials. If the DSMB members had only been exposed to SAS reports before, you could not get them to stop praising the quality of the R + LaTeX reports, even years into a trial.

Thanks for your note Erik.  That's been my experience too.

For those that haven't seen it already, you may be interested in http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/Rreport and its "Statistical Tables and Plots" link.
