Hello, I create a plot from a coxph object called fit.ads4: plot(survfit(fit.ads4)) plot is located at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9jswrzid7mp1u62/survfit%20plot.png I also create the following survfit statistics: > print(survfit(fit.ads4),print.rmean=T) Call: survfit(formula = fit.ads4) records n.max n.start events *rmean *se(rmean) median 0.95LCL 0.95UCL 203.0

Hi, When I run the survfit function, I want to get the restricted mean value and the standard error also. I found out using the "print" function to do so, as shown below, print(km.fit,print.rmean=TRUE) Call: survfit(formula = Surv(diff, status) ~ 1, type = "kaplan-meier") records n.max n.start events *rmean *se(rmean) median 200.000

Dear Sirs, I want to estimate the survival mean of a few specific teams. I'm trying to calculate it through a Kaplan Meier estimator. For doing so, I load the "survival" package and run the following instructions: "options(survfit.print.mean=TRUE)" allows showing the mean and mean standard error "KM=survfit(Surv(Dias,Censura))"

Hello, I have estimated a survival model with six strata: >model.b <- survfit(Surv(time=start.tijd,time2=eind.tijd2,event=va)~strata(product.code) , data=wu.wide) I would like to save the output of >print(model.b,print.n="records",show.rmean=FALSE) in a dataframe so that I can export it later. How do I do this? Note that summary(model.b) gives an error: Error in

Dear all, I'm having difficulty getting access to data generated by survfit and print.survfit when they are using with a Cox model (survfit.coxph). I would like to programmatically access the median survival time for each strata together with the 95% confidence interval. I can get it on screen, but can't get to it algorithmically. I found myself examining the source of print.survfit to

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

One approach is to use the rms package's cph and Mean.cph functions. Mean.cph (cph calls coxph and can compute Kaplan-Meier and other survival estimates) can compute mean restricted life.

Hello, I need some results from the survival analysis of my data that I do not know whether exist in Survival Package or how to obtain if they do: 1. The Mean survival time 2. The standard error of the mean 3. Point and 95% Lower & Upper Confidence Intervals estimates Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cem [[alternative HTML version

Dear List, Does anybody no how to compare mean survival times for two (more) groups in R? What test statistics should I use? Thank you very much! Joe [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I fit a Cox PH model to estimate the cause-specific hazards (in a competing risks setting). Then , I compute the survival estimates for all the individuals in my data set using the `survfit' function. I am currently playing with a data set that has about 6000 observations and 12 covariates. I am finding that the survfit function is very slow. Here is a simple simulation example

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!

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)

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

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 useRs, What is the syntax to obtain survival curves for single strata on many subjects? I have a model based on Surv(time,response) object, so there is a single row per subject and no start,stop and no switching of strata. The newdata has many subjects and each subject has a strata and the survival based on the subject risk and the subject strata is needed. If I do newpred <-

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

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:

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

> Further I appreciate your new function survmean(). At the moment it > seems to be intended as internal, and not documented in the help. The computations done by print.survfit are now a part of the results returned by summary.survfit. See 'table' in the output list of ?summary.survfit. Both call an internal survmean() function to ensure that any future updates stay in
