I have installed R version 1 for windows and have installed the survival5 package in the library folder, but the base package only seems to partially acknowledge survival5's presence. How have I screwed up? The diagnostics are as follows... >library(survival5) ** no warning given.. seems OK ** >help(package=survival5) **this gives the contents of the package correctly,

Hi all, I'm new to R and have the following problem: I have a 2 factor design (a has 2 levels, b has 3 levels). I have an object kidney.aov which is an aov(y ~ a*b), and when I ask for model.tables(kidney.avo, se=T) I get the following message along with the table of effects: Design is unbalanced - use se.contrast() for se's but the design is NOT unbalanced... each fator level

Hi, I am trying to convert the following NLMIXED code to NLME, but am running into problems concerning 'Singularity in backsolve'. As I am new to R/S-Plus, I thought I may be missing something in the NLME code. NLMIXED *********** proc nlmixed data=kidney.kidney; parms delta=0.03 gamma=1.1 b1=-0.003 b2=-1.2 b3=0.09 b4=0.35 b5=-1.43 varu=0.5; eta=b1*age+b2*sex+b3*gn+b4*an+b5*pkn+u;

Dear R users - I have a list of patient identifiers and diagnoses from inpatient admissions. I would like to reorganize the list, presently in a long format to a wide format in reshape, but in the absence of a "time" element, I am uncertain how to do this - any help greatly appreciated. ID Dx A nausea A diabetes A kidney failure A heart attack A fever B fever B

Hi, I am doing an analysis to see if these is tissue specific effects on the gene expression data . Our data were collected from 6 different labs (batch effects). lab 1 has tissue type 1 and tissue type 2, lab 2 has tissue 3, 4,5,6. The other labs has one tissue type each. The 'sample' data is as below:

Dear R-Helpers: What other references are there on the capabilities of the survival5 package other than the help files and the chapter on survival analysis in every edition of Modern Applied Statistics with S? I'm thinking of something like "An Introduction to Survival Analysis in R" with worked examples that might complement or extend the chapter in MASS. Thanks, Spencer

Dear R-users, I have noticed small discrepencies in the reported estimate of the variance of the frailty by the print method for survreg() and the 'theta' component included in the object fit: # Examples in R-2.6.2 for Windows library(survival) # version 2.34-1 (2008-03-31) # discrepancy fit1 <- survreg(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + frailty(litter), rats) fit1 fit1$history[[1]]$theta

Dear friends - We have 25 rats, 14 of these subjected to partial removal of kidney tissue, 11 to sham operation, and then followed for 6 weeks. So far we have data on 26 urine metabolites measured by NMR 7 times during the observation. I have smoothed the measurements by b.splines in fda including a roughness penalty, and inspecting the mean curves for nephrectomized and sham animals indicate

I downloaded binary of survival5 for windows95 (also the splines, date). The function survsum shows up in content, has a help page, but the function itself is missing. Can we cut and paste the survsum from survival4 ? Mai Zhou P.S. I am not picking on R, not even complaining. I think R is great and I am try to contribute my (small) part to make it even better in way of bug report (or

Dear R-listers, Does anybody know what is the correct source of "rats" dataset in survival package? The help gives the following information: Rat data from survival5 Description: 48 rats were injected with a carcinogen, and then randomized to either drug or placebo. The number of tumors ranges from 0 to 13; all rats were censored at 6 months after randomization.

I have data I'd like to plot using the formula interface to boxplot. I call boxplot like so: with(mydata, boxplot(count ~ geno * tissue)) I get a boxplot with x axis labels like "wt.kidney". I would like to change the '.' to a newline. Where is this separator configured? Thanks, -Ed

Dear all, Are there functions or packages in R that can handle interval-censored data? I have looked in various packages (such as survival5 or event), but it seems that only right-censored data can be analysed. More generally, are there methods to analyse both interval-censored observations and right-censored observations in the same data set? Thanks in advance. Emmanuel Paradis

Hello Everyone, I am having problem in defining specific axis for plotting a vactor. vecAVG <- c(0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.2, 0.4) names(vecAVG)<-c("brain","heart","kidney","lung","blood") par(mar=c(12,4.1,4.1, 2.1))

Anyone using the penalised partial likelihood routines in survival5 should update their version. A bug has been fixed in the S package: in coxph() models with penalised likelihood and strata it was possible in some circumstances to get an infinite loop or perhaps an incorrect answer. The new version (2.3) is on cran.r-project.org and will percolate through CRAN in the next few days. -thomas

Dear List, How do I extract the approximate Wald test for the frailty (in the following example 17.89 value)? What about the P-values, other Chisq, DF, se(coef) and se2? How can they be extracted? ######################################################> kfitm1 Call: coxph(formula = Surv(time, status) ~ age + sex + disease + frailty(id, dist = "gauss"), data = kidney)

Hello listers, Does anybody know how to add text to an xyplot without whipping out the existing curve? That's all. For instance, Lets say you generate a graph like this A <- data.frame(x = rnorm(100), y = rnorm(100)) xyplot(y ~ x, data = A) How would you add 'Hello world'? I tried 6.02E23 different partial solutions found on the web and failed. I just need one EXAMPLE that
