Hello all, I am hoping to use survival analysis to examine whether parasite attack increases nest death in a species of social wasp. I therefore have data for 1. Whether the nest "died" in the 6 week census period ("Status", where 1=died, 0=survived) 2. The day number of death/last recorded day it was observed alive. 3. Whether the nest was attacked by the parasite (0/1 as

Hi. I am using Windows version of R 1.8.1. Being somewhat new to survival analysis, I am trying to compare cph (Design) with coxph (survival) for use with a survival data set. I was wondering why cph and coxph provide me with different confidence intervals for the hazard ratios for one of the variables. I was wondering if I am doing something wrong? Or if the two functions are calculating hazard

Dear all, Is there an implementation of Simon & Makuch method of plotting the survival function with time-dependent variables. I?m only able to find event.chart in Hmisc for the purpose and I would prefer the Simon and Makuch method. I believe stata has it implemented for this purpose, but I cannot find it on CRAN. Simon R, Makuch RW. A non-parametric graphical representation of the

Hello. I get a bit confused by the output from the predict function when used on an object from coxph in combination with p-spline, e.g. fit <- coxph(Surv(time1, time2, status)~pspline(x), Data) predict(fit, newdata=data.frame(x=1:2)) It seems like the output is somewhat independent of the x-values to predict at. For example x=1:2 gives the same result as x=21:22. Does the result span the

Hi Does anyone know if there is a function like survdiff which can also handle left-truncated and right-censored data? When I use it on left-truncated and right-censored data I get an error message saying Right censored data only. Many thanks Rajen [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-help, I would like to compute the variance for the proportion of treatment effect by a surrogate in a survival model (Lin, Fleming, and De Gruttola 1997 in Statistics in Medicine). The paper mentioned that the covariance matrix matches that of the covariance matrix estimator for the marginal hazard modelling of multiple events data (Wei, Lin, and Weissfeld 1989 JASA), and is implemented

----- begin included message In case cohort study, we can fit proportional hazard regression model to case-cohort data. In R, the function is cch() in Survival package Now I am working on case cohort analysis with time dependent covariates using cch() of "Survival" R package. I wonder if cch() provide this utility or not? The cch() manual does not say if time dependent covariate is

Hello, I have a general help question that some of you might be able able to help. I would like to design a study (a two group comparison) based on reduction on events(say hospital admissions). In a previous study hospital admission rate of 140 admissions per 72 patients (over a 4 month period) has been observed. That is rate is about 1.9. In order to see the admission rate reduction of 50% over

For adjusted survival curves I took the sample code from here: https://rpubs.com/daspringate/survival and adapted for my date, but got error. I would like to understand what is my mistake.

Hi, I'm trying to do a simple survival analysis on some data, and I'm having the following problem (here's my code and the error message): out <- Surv(fup,event=status) Error in Surv(fup, event = status) : argument "time2" is missing, with no default >From reading the documentation, it seems that I should be able to simply write: Surv(time1, event) if my data is

Dear everyone, My question involves the use of the survival object. We can have Surv(time,time2,event, type=, origin = 0) (1) As detailed on p.65 of: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/survival/survival.pdf My data (used in my study) is 'right censored' i.e. my variable corresponding to 'event' indicates whether a person is alive (0) or dead (1) at date last seen

Dear all, I am confused with the behaviour of survfit with newdata option. I am using the latest version R-2-15-0. In the simple example below I am building a coxph model on 90 patients and trying to predict 10 patients. Unfortunately the survival curve at the end is for 90 patients. Could somebody please from the survival package confirm that this behaviour is as expected or not - because I

I have a model with quant vars only and the error message does not make sense: (mod1 <- coxph(Surv(time=strt,time2=stp,event=(resp==1))~ +incpost+I(amt/1e5)+rate+strata(termfac), subset=dt<"2010-08-30", data=inc,method="efron")) Call: coxph(formula = Surv(time = strt, time2 = stp, event = (resp == 1)) ~ +incpost + I(amt/1e+05) + rate + strata(termfac),

Dear R folk, First off I want to thank those of you who responded with comments for my R quick and dirty stats tutorial. They've been quite helpful, and I'm in the process of revising them. When it comes to repeated measures MANOVA, I'm in a bit of a bind, however. I'm beginning to see that all of the documentation is written for psychologists, who have a slightly

Dear R-help, I was comparing SAS (I do not know what version it is) and R (version 2.6.0 (2007-10-03) on Linux) survival analyses with time-dependent covariates. The results differed significantly so I tried to understand on a short example where I went wrong. The following example shows that even when argument 'method' in R function coxph and argument 'ties' in SAS procedure

First a statistical issue: The survfit routine will produce predicted survival curves for any requested combination of the covariates in the original model. This is not the same thing as an "adjusted" survival curve. Confusion on this is prevalent, however. True adjustment requires a population average over the confounding factors and is closely related to the standardized

Hi all, Again I have searched the net and so on, without finding an answer to this surely simple problem. A short bit of code would be appreciated. I have a object named `data' with the following column headings. Date, maxitemp, minitemp, admissions, d.o.w. Where d.o.w. is day of the week, written "Sun" "Mon" etc. I just need to scale the Monday admissions by
