similar to: New version of rms package now on CRAN

I am cleaning up the rms package to not export functions not to be called directly by users. rms uses generic functions defined in other packages. For example there is a latex method in the Hmisc package, and rms has a latex method for objects of class "anova.rms" so there are anova.rms and latex.anova.rms functions in rms. I use:

This is to announce a new package rms on CRAN. rms goes along with my book Regression Modeling Strategies. The home page for rms is http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/rms, or go directly to http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/Rrms for information just about the software. rms is a re-write of the Design package that has improved graphics and that duplicates very little code in the survival

A new version of rms is now available on CRAN for Linux and Windows (Mac will probably be available very soon). Largest changes include latex methods for validate.* and adding the capability to force a subset of variables to be included in all backwards stepdown models (single model or validation by resampling). Recent updates: * In survplot.rms, fixed bug (curves were undefined if

A major new version of the rms package is now on CRAN. The most user-visible changes are: - interactive plotly graphic methods for model fits. The best example of this is survplot for npsurv (Kaplan-Meier) estimates where the number of risk pop up as you hover over the curves, and you can click to bring up confidence bands for differences in survival curves - html methods for model fit

Hi folks, Using R Version 1.6.2 (2003-01-10) on SuSE Linux 7.2, I just installed Hmisc_1.5-3.tar.gz and Design_1.1-5.tar.gz These were taken from http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/s/library/r Checked the dependencies: Hmisc: grid, lattice, mva, acepack -- all already installed Design: Hmisc, survival -- survival already installed, so installed Hmisc first All seems to go

The rms ("Regression Modeling Strategies") package has undergone a massive update. The entire list of updates is at the bottom of this note. CRAN has the update for linux and will soon have it for Windows and Mac - check http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rms/ for availability. This rms update relies on a major update of the Hmisc package. The most user-visible changes are:

CRAN has a significant update to rms. Windows and unix/linux versions are available and I expect the Mac version to be available soon. The most significant improvement is addition of latex=TRUE arguments to model fitting print methods, made especially for use with Sweave. Here is a summary of changes since the previous version. Changes in version 3.1-0 (2010-09-12) * Fixed gIndex to not

The rms package, a replacement for the Design package, has been updated on CRAN. The most major change is the addition of smooth calibration curves for externally (val.surv function) or internally (calibrate.cph, calibrate.psm) validating a survival model with right-censored data. The polspline package is used to estimate the survival probability at a fixed time point as a function of the

Hello! I have created a bplot-figure using this code: *file <- "2dcali_red.ttt" ux<-as.matrix(read.table(file, dec = ",")) mode(ux)<-'numeric' vel<-ux[,1] ang<-ux[,2] x<-ux[,3] y<-ux[,4] dat<- data.frame(ang=ang, x=x,y=y) require(rms) ddist2 <- datadist(dat) options(datadist="ddist2") fitn <- lrm(ang ~ rcs(x,4) +

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 apologize for the post as I am certainly overlooking a simple solution to my difficulties with getting a legend to print on a survplot from the rms package. I am plotting the following: survplot(survest(fita), n.risk=T, conf='none', cex.n.risk=.85, dots=T, col='gray10', lty=2) survplot(survest(fit), n.risk=F, conf='none', add=T) survplot(survest(fitb), n.risk=F,

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

I have a plot produced by function bplot (package = rms) that is really a lattice plot (class="trellis"). It is similar to this plot produced by a very minor modification of the first example on the bplot help page: requiere(rms) n <- 1000 # define sample size set.seed(17) # so can reproduce the results age <- rnorm(n, 50, 10) blood.pressure <- rnorm(n, 120,

The answer to this may be obvious, but I was wondering in the rms package and the survfit(), how you can plot the censored time points as ticks. Take for example, library(survival) library(rms) foo <- data.frame(Time=c(1,2,3,4,5,6,10), Status=c(1,1,0,0,1,1,1)) answer <- survfit(Surv(foo$Time, foo$Status==1) ~1) # this shows the censored time points as ticks at Time = 3 and 4 plot(answer)
