similar to: How to get the hazard of coxph (not cumulative hazard)

Dear all, Is there a way to calculate the non-cumulative hazard (instantaneous hazard), which is the product of baseline hazard and exp{beta*covariate} ? I knew in survfit, we can get the estimator of cumulative baseline hazard, but how can we get the non-cumulative one? Thank you very much! Koshihaku -- View this message in context:

Dear R-users, I computed a simple coxph model and plotted survival over time with associated confidence intervals for 2 covariate levels (males and females). M1 <- coxph(survobject~sex, data=surv) M1 survsex <- survfit(survobject~sex,data=surv) summary(survsex) plot(survsex, conf.int=T, col=c("black","red"), lty = c(1,2), lwd=c(1,2), xlab="Time",

My question is, how to compute hazard function(H(t)) after building the coxph model. I even aware of the terminology that differs from hazard function(H(t)) and the hazard rate(h(t)). Here onward I wish to calculate both. Here what I have done in two different methods; ##########################################################################################

Dear R-users, I am checking the proportional hazard assumption of a cox model for a given covariate, let say Z1, after adjusting for other relavent covariates in the model. To this end, I fitted cox model stratified on the discrete values of Z1 and try to get beslow estimator for the baseline cumulative hazard function (H(t)) in each stratum. As far as i know, if the proportionality assumption

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

Hi, I am computing the Nelson-Aalen (NA) estimate of baseline cumulative hazard in two different ways using the "survival" package. I am expecting that they should be identical. However, they are not. Their difference is a monotonically increasing with time. This difference is probably not large to make any impact in the application, but is annoyingly non-trivial for me to just

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 working on a study where we need to predict individual survival curves from a cox-model fit with sampling weights. In both R and Splus the survfit.coxph code starts with if(!is.null((object$call)$weights)) stop("Survfit cannot (yet) compute the result for a weighted model") My question is does anyone have code to get the expected survival curve, or even just the base

What is the best way to report the standard error when publishing Kaplan-Meier plots? In my field (Vascular Surgery), practitioners loosely refer to the "10% error" cutoff as the point at which to stop drawing the KM curve. I am interpreting this as the *standard error of the cumulative hazard*, although I'm having a difficult time finding some guidelines about this (perhaps I am

Hello: So i've fit a hazard function to a set of data using kmfit<-survfit(Surv(int, event)~factor(cohort)) this factor variable, "cohort" has four levels so naturally the strata variable has 4 values. I can use this data to estimate the hazard rate haz<-n.event/n.risk and calculate the cumulative hazard function by H<--log(haz) Now, I would like to plot this

Dear All, I'm having just a little terminology problem, relating the language used in the Hosmer and Lemeshow text on Applied Survival Analysis to that of the help that comes with the survival package. I am trying to back out the values for the baseline hazard, h_o(t_i), for each event time or observation time. Now survfit(fit)$surv gives me the value of the survival function, S(t_i|X_i,B),

Hi everyone. There's been several threads on baseline hazard in Cox model but I think they were all on cumulative baseline hazard, for instance http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01a/0464.html http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01a/0436.html "basehaz" in package survival seems to do a cumulative hazard. extract from the basehaz function: sfit <- survfit(fit) H

I would like to be able to construct hazard rates (or unconditional death prob) for many subjects from a given survfit. This will involve adjusting the ( n.event/n.risk) with (coxph object )$linear.predictors I must be having another silly day as I cannot reproduce the linear predictor: fit <- coxph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age, data = ovarian) fit$linear.predictors[1] [1] 2.612756

Hello , I am hoping for some advice regarding obtaining the values for the hazard function in a cox regression that I have undertaken. I have a model in the following form, analysed with the package survival (v. 2.34-1) and a log-log plot obtained using Design (v. 2.1-2). For two variables, the lines in the survival curves crossed. The statistician I been obtaining advice from (who does not

Hi, In the following results I interpret exp(coef) as the factor that multiplies the base hazard rate if the corresponding variable is TRUE. For example, when the bucket is ks008 and fidelity <= 3, then the rate, compared to the base rate h_0(t), is h(t) = 0.200 h_0(t). My question is then, to what case does the base hazard rate correspond to? I would expect the reference to be the first

I have a very general question about what the centering option in basehaz does to factors. (basehaz computes the baseline cumulative hazard for a coxph object using the Breslow estimator). Lets say I'm interested in a survival model with two (dichotomous) factors and a continuous covariate. Variable Possible Values Factor1 0 or 1 Factor2 0 or 1

Hello, I have a couple of questions with regards to fitting a coxph model to a data set in R: I have a very large dataset and wanted to get the baseline hazard using the basehaz() function in the package : 'survival'. If I use all the covariates then the output from basehaz(fit), where fit is a model fit using coxph(), gives 507 unique values for the time and the corresponding cumulative

Dear list, is there a function available which provides an estimate of the hazard function based on a cox proportional hazard model? I only found the cumulative hazard and the survival function as survfit options. Thanks for your help Peter

Dear R-users, I would like to fit a fully parametric proportional hazard model with a weibull baseline hazard and a logit link function. This is, the hazard function is: lambda_i (t) = lambda_0 (t) psi (x_i* beta) where lambda_0 is a weibull distribution and psi a logistic distribution. Does someone know a package and/or function on R to do this? Thanks. -- M.L. Avendaño [[alternative HTML
