Hi R experts, I am trying to do a prognostic model validation study, using cancer survival data. There are 2 data sets - 1500 cases used to develop a nomogram, and another of 800 cases used as an independent validation cohort. I have validated the nomogram in the original data (easy with the Design tools), and then want to show that it also has good results with the independent data using 60

Hello, I am constructing a nomogram using cph and nomogram commands in Dr. Harrell's Design/RMS package. The HR that I obtain for dichotomous and categorical variables are identical to those that I obtain using STATA stcox. However, the inter-quartile HR I obtain for continuous variables is obviously different, since STATA gives me HR for each unit (year, centimeter, etc) like coxph would

Hello, I am using Dr. Harrell's rms package to make a nomogram. I was able to make a beautiful one. However, I want to change 5-year survival probability to 5-year failure probability. I couldn?t get hazard rate from Hazard(f1) because I used cph for the model. Here is my code: library(rms) f1 <- cph(Surv(retime,dfs) ~ age+her2+t_stage+n_stage+er+grade+cytcyt+Cyt_PCDK2 , data=data11,

Hello, I am using Dr. Harrell's design package to make a nomogram. I was able to make a beautiful one without stratifying, however, I will need to stratify to meet PH assumptions. This is where I go wrong, but I'm not sure where. Non-Stratified Nomogram:

Dear all: I have used the cph function in the rms package. log10 was used to transform the variables, as follows: fit<-cph(pfsurv~log10(x1)+log10(x2),x=T,y=T,surv=T) after I run the nomogram function. I found "variable limits and transformations are such that an infinite axis value has resulted." How to add variable limits in the nomogram function? Thanks a lot *Yao Zhu*

The rms package includes the nomogram function, which generates a list object that can be passed to plot for graphical production of nomograms. I would like to remove the "linear predictor" line in the graph, which means (I suspect) removing it from the nomogram output object. I've looked at the nomogram output object, but it is not clear to me if or how it might be edited to

Dear list, I'm facing the following problem : A cox model with my sex variable interacting with several continuous variables : cph(S~sex*(x1+x2+x3)) And I'd like to make a nomogram. I know it's a bit tricky and one mights argue that nomogram is not a good a choice... I could use the parameter interact=list(sex=("male","female"),x1=c(a,b,c))... but with rcs or pol

Dear R-users, I have used the nomogram function from the rms package for a logistic regresison model made with lrm(). Everything works perfectly (r version 2.15.1 on a mac). My question is this: if my final model is not the one created by lrm, but I internally validated the model and 'shrunk' the regression coefficients and computed a new intercept, how can I build a nomogram using that

Hi, I would like to emphasize ("zoom") the zone of a nomogram where the probability are > 0.01 (nomogram built with nomogram, Design). As a consequence, I don't need to draw the part of the "Total points" axis with score < 60 equivalent in my case to a linear predictor < 4.5 - As far as I know, this is not possible with the arguments of the function. - Changing

Dear R-users, I am a novice R-user with some experience in using the RMS package for taking nomograms after various survival models. This time, I am trying to plot a nomogram after a Random Effects Cox, implemented by the "coxme" package. My questions are: 1. Is it possible to take a nomogram directly after the coxme survival function? 2. If not is there a way to take the linear

I am a new user of R for Windows, enthusiast about the many functions of the Design and Hmisc libraries. I combined the results of a Cox regression model after multiple imputation (of missing values in some covariates). Now I got my vector of coefficients (and of standard errors). My question is: How could I use directly that vector to run programs such as 'nomogram', 'calibrate',

Hi R users, I'd like to draw a nomogram using a competing-risks regression (crr function in R), rather than a cox regression. However, the nomogram function provided in the Design package is not good for this purpose. Do you have any suggestion. I really appreciate your help Many thanks F.Abdollah, MD San-Raffele hospital Milan, Italy -- View this message in context:

Hi all R users I did a logistic regression with my binary variable Y (0/1) and 2 explanatory variables. Now I try to draw my nomogram with predictive value. I visited the help of R but I have problem to understand well the example. When I use glm fonction, I have a problem, thus I use lrm. My code is: modele<-lrm(Y~L+P,data=donnee) fun<- function(x) plogis(x-modele$coef[1]+modele$coef[2])

Dear R users, I am a new R user and something stops me when I try to write a academic article. I want to make a nomogram to predict the risk of prostate cancer (PCa) using several factors which have been selected from the Logistic regression run under the SPSS. Always, a calibration plot is needed to validate the prediction accuracy of the nomogram. However, I tried many times and read a lot of

Hi R-help, ? I have fit a cox ph model to my data, but have beenreceiving an error when trying to fit a model to the nomogram.

I am trying to build a model to aid a clinical decision. Certain patients have a blood marker measured at each visit - a rise of this may indicate recurrence of the cancer after treatment (endpoint is "clinical recurrence", censored). In a proportion (up to 30%), this rise is a false positive - hence I wish to correlate factors at the time of the rising test to clinical recurrence,

Dear listers I am a very newbie with graphs in R. I have a pulmonary function prediction equation in the form of PVC = 1.1 - 0.45*age in years + 0.011*height in cm. How can I draw the corresponding nomogram?. I read the help for the design.nomogram function but it is too difficult for me. Excuse my ignorance. Any direct help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

dear professor: I have a problem about the nomogram.I have got the result through analysing the dataset "exp2.sav" through multinominal logistic regression by SPSS 17.0. and I want to deveop the nomogram through R-Projject,just like this : > n<-100 > set.seed(10) > T.Grade<-factor(0:3,labels=c("G0", "G1", "G2","G3")) >
