similar to: p-value of Logrank-Test

Hi list, I want to use the p-value from the survdiff function (package survival) to reuse within a function in a Kaplan-Meier plot. The p-value is somehow not a component of the value list ?! Thanks in advance -- A. Goralczyk G?ttingen, Ger.

how do l programme the logrank test. l am trying to compare 2 survival curves --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

hie is it possible to get the code for the logrank test l just need the chisquared value. thanks --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R users I have a question with Kaplan-Meier Curve with respect to my research. We have done a retrospective study on fillings in the tooth and their survival in relation to the many influencing factors. We had a long follow-up time (upto 8yrs for some variables). However, we decided to stop the analysis at the 6year follow up time, so that we can have uniform follow-up time for all the

Sirs, I have recently been interested in your Maxstat. I have computed with my own programme the ranks (by using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test) with the formula (Observed-Expected)/(SQR Var). The results are similar but not exact to the M value obtained with the Maxstat. I would like to know whether you are using some correction or adjustment in computing the different ranks. Thank

What is the best way to report the standard error when publishing Kaplan-Meier plots? In my field (Vascular Surgery), practitioners loosely refer to the "10% error" cutoff as the point at which to stop drawing the KM curve. I am interpreting this as the *standard error of the cumulative hazard*, although I'm having a difficult time finding some guidelines about this (perhaps I am

R Folk: Please forgive what I'm sure is a fairly na?ve question; I hope it's clear. A colleague and I have been doing a really simple one-off survival analysis, but this is an area with which we are not very familiar, we just happen to have gathered some data that needs this type of analysis. We've done quite a bit of reading, but answers escape us, even though the question below

This is more of a general question without data. After doing 'survdiff', from the 'survival' package, on strata including four groups (so 4 curves on a Kaplan Meier curve) you get a chi squared p-value whether to reject the null hypothesis or not. Is there a method to followup with pairwise testing on the respective groups? I have searched the library but have come up with

How can I get the Log - Rank p value to be output? The chi square value can be output, so I was thinking if I can also have the degrees of freedom output I could generate the p value, but can't see how to find df either. > (survtest <- survdiff(Surv(time, cens) ~ group, data = surv,rho=0)) Call: survdiff(formula = Surv(time, cens) ~ group, data = surv, rho = 0) N Observed

I read through Harrington and Fleming (1982) but it is beyond my statistical comprehension. I have survival data for insects that have a very finite expiration date. I'm trying to test for differences in survival distributions between different groups. I understand that the medical field is most often dealing with censored data and that survival analysis, at least in the package survival,

Hello, As I am quitte an ignorant user of R, excuse me for any wrongfull usage of all the terms. My question relates to the statistics behind the survdiff function in the package survival. My textbook knowledge of the logrank test tells me that if I want to compare two survival curves, I have to take the sum of the factors: (O-E)^2/E of both groups, which will give me the Chisq. If I calculate

Hi all, Please help on this. We will be teaching epidemiology using opensource software. What are R built-in functions or functions in available packages that are capable of doing these: a) Logistic regression (glm?) b) Conditional logistic regression c) Logistic regression with random effects d) Beta-binomial regression e) Poisson regression f) Weibull regression (eha?) g) Exponential

Hi, I'm trying to print the p-values from the output of a CPH test onto a Kaplan Meier plot. Can this be done? I only really want the p-values from the CPH test to appear but if this can't be done I am willing to have the entire CPH output. This is what I am currently trying: (it doesn't print the CPH output) plot_KM <- function(field) { library(survival) y =

Dear all, I have data from 1970 to 1990 for people above age 50. Now I want to calculate survival curves by age starting at age 50 using the Kaplan Meier Estimator. The problem I have is that there are already people in 1970 who are older than 50 years. I guess this is called delayed entry or left truncation (?). I thought the code would be: roland <- survfit(Surv(time=age.enter,

Hi all, I am trying to draw a Kaplan-Meier curve and I found online that Kaplan - Meier estimates are computed with a function called km in the event package. Is there an update for that because when I choose to download packages in R,. there is no package called event, even though I have selected all the repositories. Thanks in advance, Eleni [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I have a question about the function lifetab in package KMsurv. The description of the output value surv says "the estimated survival function at the start of the intervals". Are these estimates the ones calculated via Kaplan-Meier probability of survival ? Thanks in advance! -- View this message in context:

Hi Fello: I am asked to compute the Kaplan-Meier estimator of data with right censoring without using surfit(). Does anyone know how to use R to compute the estimators? The data should input X: vector of right-censored observed time for n individuals, and d: vector of failure time indicators (0=censored individual;1=unconsored individual) and the function should return with t: vector of sorted

When I try to the code from library(survival) of library(ISwR), the following code survfit(Surv(days,status==1)) that could produce Kaplan-Meier estimates shows the following error "Error in survfit(Surv(days, status == 1)) : Survfit requires a formula or a coxph fit as the first argument" How it can be done in R.2.10 -- View this message in context:
