Hi, I have a question about how to extract paramters from a fitted model. I can extract coefficients and std, but from some other statistics, I dont know how to extract. Can anyone help? Here it is an example: > coxout<-coxph(Surv(t,t.censor)~x) > coxout Call: coxph(formula = Surv(t, t.censor) ~ x) coef exp(coef) se(coef) z p x 0.349 1.42 0.257 1.36 0.17 Likelihood

Hello, I wonder when I do coxph in R: coxph( Surv(start, stop, event) ~ x, data=test) If x is a categorical varible (1,2,3,4,5), should I creat four dummy varibles for it? if yes, how can I get the overall p value on x other than for each dummy variable? Thanks Lisa Wang Princess Margaret Hospital Phone 416 946 4501

We occasionally utilize the coxph function in the survival library to fit multinomial logit models. (The breslow method produces the same likelihood function as the multinomial logit). We then utilize the predict function to create summary results for various combinations of covariates. For example:

Thanks for the reproducable example. I can confirm that it fails on my machine using survival 2-37.5, the next soon-to-be-released version, The issue is with NextMethod, and my assumption that the called routine inherited everything from the parent, including the environment chain. A simple test this AM showed me that the assumption is false. It might have been true for Splus. Working this

Hi, I need to fit models and use AIC method to campare the best fitted model manually. When i extract AIC by using extractAIC, it gave me the df and AIC values. Now the problem is, how can I compare the AIC values from two models? is there anyway to extract AIC with no df so that I can compare directly?

Hello, I've executed the following predict.coxph function to enable prediction for new variable values (error is included). *predict(cox_out,newdata=data.frame(Meter3.Value=100.001, Meter4.Value=200.001,Meter5.Value=300.001,Meter10.Value= 400.001,type="expected")) Error in model.frame.default(data = data.frame(Meter3.Value = 100.001, : variable lengths differ (found for

Hello. I get a bit confused by the output from the predict function when used on an object from coxph in combination with p-spline, e.g. fit <- coxph(Surv(time1, time2, status)~pspline(x), Data) predict(fit, newdata=data.frame(x=1:2)) It seems like the output is somewhat independent of the x-values to predict at. For example x=1:2 gives the same result as x=21:22. Does the result span the

I fit a coxph model: coxphfit <- coxph(Surv(sampledLifetime, !sampledCensoredQ) ~ curpbc6 + prevpbc6, sampledTimeSeries) Now I'm trying to predict the expected number of events using a new dataset. The documentation suggests that coxPred <- predict(coxphfit, newdata = testTimeSeries, type="expected") will do what I want, but I get the error Error in

I am fitting a coxph model on a large dataset (approx 100,000 patients), and then trying to estimate the survival curves for several new patients based on the coxph object using survfit. When I run coxph I get the coxph object back fairly quickly however when I try to run survfit it does not come back. I am wondering if their is a more efficient way to get predicted survival curves from a coxph

Hi list, I was trying to use "predict.coxph" to calculate martingale residuals on a test data, however, as pointed out before http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e4/help/08/06/13508.html predict(mycox1, newdata, type="expected") is not implemented yet. Dieter suggested to use 'cph' and 'predict.Design', but from my reading so far, I'm not sure they can

Hi I am estimating the following coxph function with stratification and frailty?where each person had multiple events. m<-coxph(Surv(dtime1,status1)~gender+cage+uplf+strata(enum)+frailty(id),xmodel) ? > head(xmodel) id enum dtime status gender cage uplf 1 1008666 1 2259.1412037 1 MA 0.000 0 2 1008666 2 36.7495023 1 MA 2259.141 0 3 1008666

Dear users, In a study with recurrent events: My objective is to get estimates of survival (obtained through a Cox model) by rank of recurrence and by treatment group. With the following code (corresponding to a model with a global effect of the treatment=rx), I get no error and manage to obtain what I want : data<-(bladder)

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, I am attempting to evaluate the prediction error of a coxph model that was built after feature selection with glmnet. In the preprocessing stage I used na.omit (dataset) to remove NAs. I reconstructed all my factor variables into binary variables with dummies (using model.matrix) I then used glmnet lasso to fit a cox model and select the best performing features. Then I fit a coxph model

i want to make survival plots for a coxph object using survfit function. mod.phm is an object of coxph class which calculated results using columns X and Y from the DataFrame. Both X and Y are categorical. I want survival plots which shows a single line for each of the categories of X i.e. '4' and 'C'. I am getting the following error: > attach(DataFrame) >

Dear all, I'm struggling with predicting "expected time until death" for a coxph and survreg model. I have two datasets. Dataset 1 includes a certain number of people for which I know a vector of covariates (age, gender, etc.) and their event times (i.e., I know whether they have died and when if death occurred prior to the end of the observation period). Dataset 2 includes another

Hello: In the example below (or for a censored data) using survfit.coxph, can anyone point me to a link or a pdf as to how the probabilities appearing in bold under "summary(pred$surv)" are calculated? Do these represent acumulative probability distribution in time (not including censored time)? Thanks very much, parmee *fit <- coxph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age, data = ovarian)*

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

I have a model with quant vars only and the error message does not make sense: (mod1 <- coxph(Surv(time=strt,time2=stp,event=(resp==1))~ +incpost+I(amt/1e5)+rate+strata(termfac), subset=dt<"2010-08-30", data=inc,method="efron")) Call: coxph(formula = Surv(time = strt, time2 = stp, event = (resp == 1)) ~ +incpost + I(amt/1e+05) + rate + strata(termfac),

I am wondering how to estimate the survival curve for a particular case(s) given a coxph model using this example code: #fit a cox proportional hazards model and plot the #predicted survival curve fit <- coxph( Surv(futime,fustat)~resid.ds+strata(rx)+ecog.ps+age,data=ovarian[1:23,]) z <- survfit(fit,newdata=ovarian[24:26,],individual=F) zs <- z$surv zt <-
