Dear R-listers

 

I am writing a manuscript for a scientific journal in clinical medicine.
I have three groups of patients, and I present a 10*3 table of their
characteristics in Table 1. Some of their characteristics, e.g. their
age, are on a continuous scale, others are dichotomous. I am thinking of
presenting the age distribution in each group as miniature graphs, each
of which must fit in one table cell. I am hoping that someone can answer
these questions:

 

1. Has anybody ever seen something like this published anywhere?

2. Should I draw the entire table as a figure, or should I make a table
in Word (or similar) and manually insert the graphs in their cells?

3. Are there R packages that can "draw tables"?

4. And one for you editors out there: Would such a table count as one
figure, several figures, or a table?!

 

Forgive me for being somewhat off-topic. I hope for your help anyway.

 

Best regards,

Peter.
