...tor for the baseline cumulative hazard function (H(t)) in each stratum. As far as i know, if the proportionality assumption holds, the plot of ln[H(t)] of each stratum versus time should be approximately parallel. i.e fit<-coxph(Surv(start,end,status)~sx+rated+AGLEVEL+strata(Z1),data=ALLDPinfectionandbronchitis) ss<-survfit(fit) plot(ss,fun="cumhaz") My question is on whether the cumulative hazard given by the above command is actually a breslow estimator for baseline cumulative hazard ,i.e, estimator=sum( number of death/ (sum(risk score in risk set)) or a nelson-Aalen estimator. if the...
