similar to: Baseline survival estimate

Dear R-help, I am using R 2.14.1 on Windows 7. I would like to produce a plot like the attached - although simplified to actual vs. Predicted survival time with distinguishing marks for censored and observed points. I have a dataset and have fitted a Cox model to it. In an attempt to visualise how accurate the model is it would be ideal if I could plot the actual survival times against the

Dear all, I am confused with the output of survfit.coxph. Someone said that the survival given by summary(survfit.coxph) is the baseline survival S_0, but some said that is the survival S=S_0^exp{beta*x}. Which one is correct? By the way, if I use "newdata=" in the survfit, does that mean the survival is estimated by the value of covariates in the new data frame? Thank you very much!

Dear All, I'm having just a little terminology problem, relating the language used in the Hosmer and Lemeshow text on Applied Survival Analysis to that of the help that comes with the survival package. I am trying to back out the values for the baseline hazard, h_o(t_i), for each event time or observation time. Now survfit(fit)$surv gives me the value of the survival function, S(t_i|X_i,B),

Hi, If I fit a Cox model using "coxph", is there a R function so that I could obtain the estimate of baseline survival function? Thank you. Zheng -- Zheng Yuan Ph.D student Department of Biostatistics University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI 48109

Date: Mon, 04 Nov 2013 17:27:04 -0600 From: Terry Therneau <therneau.terry at mayo.edu> To: Y <yuhanusa at gmail.com> The cumulative hazard is just -log(sfit$surv). The hazard is essentially a density estimate, and that is much harder. You'll notice

Hi everyone. There's been several threads on baseline hazard in Cox model but I think they were all on cumulative baseline hazard, for instance http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01a/0464.html http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/01a/0436.html "basehaz" in package survival seems to do a cumulative hazard. extract from the basehaz function: sfit <- survfit(fit) H

I have a very general question about what the centering option in basehaz does to factors. (basehaz computes the baseline cumulative hazard for a coxph object using the Breslow estimator). Lets say I'm interested in a survival model with two (dichotomous) factors and a continuous covariate. Variable Possible Values Factor1 0 or 1 Factor2 0 or 1

Hello, I have a couple of questions with regards to fitting a coxph model to a data set in R: I have a very large dataset and wanted to get the baseline hazard using the basehaz() function in the package : 'survival'. If I use all the covariates then the output from basehaz(fit), where fit is a model fit using coxph(), gives 507 unique values for the time and the corresponding cumulative

I am unable to get the basehaz function to apply a proportional hazards model to a new data frame. I replicated my specific situation with the example for coxph in the help, where I changed the x value of the first record from 0 to 1. Is there something incorrect in the syntax that I am using? Thanks in advance! test1 <- list(time= c(4, 3,1,1,2,2,3), status=c(1,NA,1,0,1,1,0),

I've never seen this, and have no idea how to reproduce it. For resloution you are going to have to give me a working example of the failure. Also, per the posting guide, what is your sessionInfo()?

Hello R-users. I believe that the way basehaz (in the survival package) compute the baseline hazard function is false. I come to question this function when it gives me hazard probabilities greater than 1. Looking at the code I think I've localised the error : hazard probability is computed as : H <- -log(surv) but it seems to me that hazard probabilities is rather an instantaneous

I am confused when trying the function survfit. my question is: what does the survival curve given by plot.survfit mean? is it the survival curve with different covariates at different points? or just the baseline survival curve? for example, I run the following code and get the survival curve #### library(survival) fit<-coxph(Surv(futime,fustat)~resid.ds+rx+ecog.ps,data=ovarian)

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've attached two files with the sources for a function to implement the finite difference method for solving a particular differential equation. One of them works correctly, the other gives wrong results or returns an error, depending on the version of R. The difference between them is that in the 'broken' version in line 42 I check if the items in the two-dimensional array

Hi, I''ve not been able to get clean runs on this testsuite with snv_130+ bits, nor with snv_130. Would appreciate a pointer to snv_130 baseline results. thnks, -oscar

Greetings -- I would like to estimate a proportional hazard model with a weibull or lognormal baseline. I have looked at both the coxph() and survreg() functions and neither appear (to me ) to do it. Am I missing something in the docs or is there another terrific package out there that will do this. Many Thanks. Carl Mason

? Hallo, which function can i use to do (baseline) logistic regression + goodness of fit tests? so far i found: # logistic on binary data lrm combined with resid(model,'gof') # logistic on binary data glm with no gof-test # baseline logit on binary data

Dear R-users, I would like to fit a fully parametric proportional hazard model with a weibull baseline hazard and a logit link function. This is, the hazard function is: lambda_i (t) = lambda_0 (t) psi (x_i* beta) where lambda_0 is a weibull distribution and psi a logistic distribution. Does someone know a package and/or function on R to do this? Thanks. -- M.L. Avendaño [[alternative HTML

Hello everyone, I want to fit a baseline category logit model (with 3-4 categories) with nested random effects. (For example, I have clusters(i) and households within clusters (j) resulting in the nested random effects structure : b_i +d_j(i)). Is there a R function/package that I can use ? Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks and regards, Dhiman Bhadra [[alternative HTML version

Hi, assume that I have a repeated measure dataset with 3 time points: baseline, day 5 and day 10. There are 4 treatment groups (vehicle, treatment 1, treatment 2 and treatment 3). 20 subjects per treatment group. A simple straight-forward way to analyze the data is to use mixed model: model 1: obj <- lmer(y ~ treatment * time +(time|subject)) where time is numeric with value 0,5 and 10.
