similar to: Nelson-Aalen estimator in R

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 useRs, I'm trying to estimate the proportion of individuals with a without a certain recurring ailment at several times points. The data are of the survival type, with "start"-"stop" dates and whether the individual had the ailment in that interval. Some cases are observed until database closure and some died or are lost to followup. The interest is not on death. I

Dear all, Currently, I am doing a research project about serum sodium levels and falling. I am doing my analysis in R. I am performing the multiple imputation right now. I want to perform a survival analysis later, but therefore I need to specify the Nelson-Aalen estimator. My dataset is called DF1, the event indicator is Falls and the time variable is Time. The code that I use is as follows:

Hard to tell from the info you are giving us. I assume this regards the "mice" package? One way to proceed is to set options(error=recover) which will dump you into the browser() environment when the error occurs and you can oka around and see what the value of variables was at the point of the error. This could give you a clue about what is going on. -pd > On 22 May 2018, at 15:29

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

Hello everybody. First of all, I would like to present myself. I'm a french student in public health and I like statistics though I'm not that good in mathematics (but I try to catch up). I've discovered R recently while trying to find a statistical program in order to avoid rebooting my computer under windows when I need to do some statistical work. And here is my first question.

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

Hi, I met a probem recently and need your help. I would really appreciate it. I kept receiving the following error message when running a program: 'Error in svd(X) : infinite or missing values in x'. However, I did not use any svd function in this program though I did include the function pseudoinverse. Is the problem caused by doing pseudoinverse? Best regards, Tongtong

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

Dear all, I was wondering if anyone can help? I am an R user but recently I have resorted to SAS to calculate the probability of the event (and the associated confidence interval) for the Cox model with combinations of risk factors. For example, suppose I have a Cox model with two binary variables, one for gender and one for treatment, I wish to calculate the probability of survival for the

I haven't done any R memory debugging lately, but https://www.mail-archive.com/rcpp-devel at lists.r-forge.r-project.org/msg10289.html shows how I used to have gdb break where valgrind finds a problem so you could examine the details. Also, running your code after running gctorture(TRUE) can help track down memory problems. -Bill On Wed, Feb 7, 2024 at 12:03?PM Therneau, Terry M., Ph.D.

?I've hit a roadblock debugging a new update to the survival package.?? I do debugging in a developement envinment, i.e. I don't create and load a package but rather? source all the .R files and dyn.load an .so file, which makes things a bit easier. ? Running with R -d "valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full" one of my test files crashes in simple R code a dozen lines

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, I'm trying to estimate a (parametric) competing risks model in the context of duration (or survival, if you wish) analysis. That is, instead of studying the transition of subjects to "death", I wish to study the transitions to multiple *destinations* (which is different from studying multiple *durations*, or recurrent events). I am more interested in the hazard function rather

Dear R-helpers: I am trying to use aalen{timereg} to run a model and found that it generates the following message. the data set I used is > dim(indf) [1] 13743 10 #R code: fit_aalen <- aalen(Surv(durdxdeathp, die) ~ 1+factor(gender), indf) #start of error message below Non unique survival times: break ties !

Hi, I am attempting to evaluate the prediction error of a coxph model that was built after feature selection with glmnet. In the preprocessing stage I used na.omit (dataset) to remove NAs. I reconstructed all my factor variables into binary variables with dummies (using model.matrix) I then used glmnet lasso to fit a cox model and select the best performing features. Then I fit a coxph model

Hi, I am attempting to graph a Kaplan Meier estimate for some claims using the survfit function. However, I was wondering if it is possible to plot a cdf of the kaplan meier rather than the survival function. Here is some of my code: library(survival) Surv(claimj,censorj==0) survfit(Surv(claimj,censorj==0)~1) surv.all<-survfit(Surv(claimj,censorj==0)~1) summary(surv.all) plot(surv.all)

Hi, I am wondering if anyone can explain to me if cumulative incidence (CI) is just "1 minus kaplan-Meier survival"? Under what circumstance, you should use cumulative incidence vs KM survival? If the relationship is just CI = 1-survival, then what difference it makes to use one vs. the other? And in R how I can draw a cumulative incidence plot. I know I can make a Kaplan-Meier

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))"
