Dear all, I am confused with the output of survfit.coxph. Someone said that the survival given by summary(survfit.coxph) is the baseline survival S_0, but some said that is the survival S=S_0^exp{beta*x}. Which one is correct? By the way, if I use "newdata=" in the survfit, does that mean the survival is estimated by the value of covariates in the new data frame? Thank you very much!

Hi everyone, I am not new to R, but new to running survival models in R. I am trying to create some basic KM curves, using the following code: library(survival) library(KMsurv) (import data etc - basic right censored, with continuously observed time of death) sleepfit <- survfit(Surv(timeb, death), data = sleep) Here timeb is measured is survival in years, death is a 1/0 indicator (1 =

I am confused when trying the function survfit. my question is: what does the survival curve given by plot.survfit mean? is it the survival curve with different covariates at different points? or just the baseline survival curve? for example, I run the following code and get the survival curve #### library(survival) fit<-coxph(Surv(futime,fustat)~resid.ds+rx+ecog.ps,data=ovarian)

Hi! I came across R just a few days ago since I was looking for a toolbox for cox-regression. I?ve read "Cox Proportional-Hazards Regression for Survival Data Appendix to An R and S-PLUS Companion to Applied Regression" from John Fox. As described therein plotting survival-functions works well (plot(survfit(model))). But I?d like to do some manipulation with the survival-functions

Hi all, Using: R version 2.8.1 Patched (2009-03-07 r48068) on OSX (10.5.6) with survival version: Version: 2.35-3 Date: 2009-02-10 I get the following using the first example in ?summary.survfit: > summary( survfit( Surv(futime, fustat)~1, data=ovarian)) Call: survfit(formula = Surv(futime, fustat) ~ 1, data = ovarian) time n.risk n.event survival

Hello all. I've been attempting to utilize the "survival" pkg ( http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/survival/index.html), while reading through this guide (http://www.ms.uky.edu/~mai/Rsurv.pdf). I figured working through the guide would be the best way to go, before attempting my own data. I tried to utilize the Kaplain-Meier estimator as shown in the guide:

Dear r-helpers, This is my first time to run survival analysis. Currently, I have a data set which contains two variables, the variable of time to event (or time to censoring) and the variable of censor indicator. For the indicator variable, it was coded as 0 and 1. 0 represents right censor, 1 means event of interest. Now I try to use "survfit" in the package of "survival". I

I have attempted to follow posting guidelines but I have failed to find out what I am doing wrong here. I am trying to use lines.survfit to plot a second curve onto a survival curve produced by plot.survfit. In my case this is to be a progression free survival curve superimposed upon an overall survival curve, but I will illustrate my problem using the example given in the help for

Hey, I am just starting to learn R now and I typed in this simple survival program: library(survival) t <- c(10,13,18,19,23,30,36,38,54,56,59,75,93,97,104,107,107,107) c <- c(1,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,0) data <- Surv(t,c) km <- survfit(data) summary(km) Call: survfit(formula = data) but everytime I run it I get this error: Error in

Hello, I am trying to compute the mdeian of the survival time from the function survfit: > fit <- survfit(Surv(time, status) ~ 1) > fit Call: survfit(formula = Surv(time, status) ~ 1) records n.max n.start events median 0.95LCL 0.95UCL 111 111 111 20 NA NA NA The results is NA? the fit$surv gives values between 1 and 0.749! Am I doing this correct?

Dear Bert, thank you for suggestion. I am aware of R-help function. I must apologize, my earlier question could lead to assumptions otherwise. As you can see below, I only get Std. error but not lower and Upper CIs. I was wondering if there is another argument or method, could give CIs which I cannot find anywhere. Thanks Adrian > Nsurv <-

First a statistical issue: The survfit routine will produce predicted survival curves for any requested combination of the covariates in the original model. This is not the same thing as an "adjusted" survival curve. Confusion on this is prevalent, however. True adjustment requires a population average over the confounding factors and is closely related to the standardized

Hi, I'm sure this should be simple but I can't figure it out! I want to get the median survival calculated by the survfit function and use the value rather than just be able to print it. Something like this: library(survival) data(lung) lung.byPS = survfit(Surv (time, status) ~ ph.ecog, data=lung) # lung.byPS Call: survfit(formula = Surv(time, status) ~ ph.ecog, data = lung) 1

dear all, I want to plot a kaplan Meier plot with the following functions, but I fail to produce the plot I want: library(survival) tim <- (1:50)/6 ind <- runif(50) ind[ind > 0.5] <- 1; ind[ind < 0.5] <- 0; MS <- runif(50) pred <- vector() pred[MS < 0.3] <- 0; pred[MS >= 0.3] <- 1 df <- as.data.frame(cbind(MS, tim, pred, ind)) names(df) <-

Dear R-help readers, I'm trying to substitute my own version of plot.default, in order to capture low-level graphics input for further manipulation. I seem to be having difficulties getting the versions of functions that I intend to use called at the right places. Specifically, I have an object produced by survfit from the survival package, and I want to save the values that

Hello there, I am doing analysis on survival data. How do I pick out a probability of survival at a chosen landmark time(for example, 3 years, 4 years) from the result of "survfit"? or any other functions? As I know, the result of 'survfit' only have the probabilities for all event or cencor time. Thank you very much Lisa Wang Princess Margaret Hospital Toronto, Ca tel:

Hi Dear R-users I have a database with 18000 observations and 20 variables. I am running cox regression on five variables and trying to use survfit to plot the survival based on a specific variable without success. Lets say I have the following coxph: >library(survival) >fit <- coxph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age + rx, data = ovarian) >fit what I am trying to do is plot a survival

Hi, I am wondering how the confidence interval for Kaplan-Meier estimator is calculated by survfit(). For example,  > summary(survfit(Surv(time,status)~1,data),times=10) Call: survfit(formula = Surv(rtime10, rstat10) ~ 1, data = mgi)  time n.risk n.event survival std.err lower 95% CI upper 95% CI    10    168      55    0.761  0.0282        0.707        0.818 I am trying to reproduce the

Hi, I am attempting to graph a Kaplan Meier estimate for some claims using the survfit function. However, I was wondering if it is possible to plot a cdf of the kaplan meier rather than the survival function. Here is some of my code: library(survival) Surv(claimj,censorj==0) survfit(Surv(claimj,censorj==0)~1) surv.all<-survfit(Surv(claimj,censorj==0)~1) summary(surv.all) plot(surv.all)
