Question about package Coxme: I develop a cox model that includes a variable "treatment" with 3 levels (A, B, C): > model_alea_int <- coxme(Surv(delai, status) ~ (1|trt)+ strata(center) , data) I am surprised that the output given in R is 3 coefficients for random effects whereas only 2 dummy variables are created: > contrasts(data$trt) B C A 0 0 B 1 0 C

Hi, I am new to R and AIC scores but what I get from coxme seems wrong. The AIC score increases as p-values decrease. Since lower AIC scores mean better models and lower p-values mean stronger effects or differences then shouldn't they change in the same direction? I found this happens with the data set rats as well as my own data. Below is the output for two models constructed with the rats

Take a look at lmekin() in the coxme package. The motivating data set for my development of coxme was the Minnesota Family Breast Cancer project: 24050 subjects in 462 families. The random effect is an intercept per subject with sigma^2 K as its variance where K is the kinship matrix (1 for self-self, .5 for parent-child or sib-sib, .25 for uncle-neice, etc). lmekin is a linear models front

Dear R-users I have problems using lme The model i want to fit can be viewed as a two-level bivariate model Two-level bivariate: bivariate (S coded as -1,T coded as 1) endpoint within trial OR It can equivalently be considered as a three-level model.Three-level: endpoint within patient, patient within trial. My code tries to model the levels through a RANDOM statement and a

R-helpers: I have a dataset that has 168 subjects and 12 variables. Some of the variables have missing data and I want to use the multiple imputation capabilities of the "mice" package to address the missing data. Given that mice only supports linear models and generalized linear models (via the lm.mids and glm.mids functions) and that I need to fit Cox models, I followed the previous

I have three columns of data, Xc, Trt and fish. This was a repeated measures design with 6 measurements taken from each of 5 fish. Xc is the actual measurement, Trt is the treatment, and fish is the fish number. Data can be seen below (hopefully it is in the column format). I would like to look for differences between treatments in a repeated measures format. I used the following code

Here is an example of how to do it. > library(survival) > vfit <- coxph(Surv(time, status) ~ celltype + trt, data=veteran) > userinput <- data.frame(celltype="smallcell", trt = 1) > usercurve <- survfit(vfit, newdata=userinput) #the entire predicted survival curve > user2 <- summary(usercurve, time= 2*365.25) # 2 year time point > user2$surv [1]

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

Hello, I am trying to run a mixed effects nested ANOVA but none of my codes are giving me any meaningful results and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I am a new user on R and would appreciate some help. The experimental design is that I have some frogs that have been exposed to three acoustic Treatments and I am measuring neural activity (egr), in 12 brain regions. Some frogs also called

I have an experiment I'm trying to analyze that's turning out to be more complicated than I anticipated, so I was hoping for some suggestions about how to handle it. The lab experiment is a comparison between two search interfaces. After a little training, each subject performs 12 information search tasks, 6 with one interface and 6 with the other, and we measure time to

My question concerns the logic behind hypothesis tests for fixed-effect terms in models fitted with lme. Suppose the levels of Subj indicate a grouping structure (k subjects) and Trt is a two-level factor (two treatments) for which there are several (n) responses y from each treatment and subject combination. If one suspects a subject by treatment interaction, either of the following models seem

Dear all, I have encountered the following problem where coxme seems to allow model with only random effect in R 2.11.1 but not in R 2.13.0. Following is the error message using rat example data. Any comment on this is appreciated. In R2.13 > library(coxme) > rat1 <- coxme(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + (1|litter), rats) > rat0 <- coxme(Surv(time, status) ~ (1|litter), rats)

You can legally cast a function pointer to another function pointer, where the signatures differ. (It is not legal to cast between data and function pointers.) I would make typedefs for the various signatures, as the casting syntax is more readable then.

Dear all, I would like to know if it is possible to fit in R a Cox ph model with time-dependent covariates and to account for hierarchical effects at the same time. Additionally, I'd like also to know if it would be possible to perform any feature selection on this model fit. I have a data set that is composed by multiple marker measurements (and hundreds of covariates) at different time

R version 2.9.0 running on Centos (Red Hat linux). I have a pair of packages coxme and bdsmatrix. The latter is installed in my local library (I don't have permission for global install at work.) That is, it is in the location pointed to in R_LIBS_USER. In R, the command library(bdsmatrix) works fine. Coxme depends on bdsmatrix, in fact uses some cross-calls to it's C routines, which
