Dear R-users, I need to use the aftreg function in package 'eha' to estimate failure times for left truncated survival data. Apparently, survreg still cannot fit such models. Both functions should be fitting the accelerated failure time (Weibull) model. However, as G?ran Brostr?m points out in the help file for aftreg, the parameterisation is different giving rise to different

Hi, I'm estimating a loglogistic aft (accelerated failure time) model, just a simple plain vanilla one (without time dependent covariates), I'm comparing the results that I obtain between aftreg (eha package) and survreg(surv package). If I don't use any covariate the results are identical , if I add covariates all the coefficients are the same until a precision of 10^4 or 10^-5 except

Hello, I am apparently confused about the use of an id parameter for an event history/survival model, and why the EHA documentation for aftreg does not specify one. All assistance and insights are appreciated. Attempting to specifiy an id variable with the documentation example generates an "overlapping intervals" error, so I sorted the original mort dataframe and set subsequent entry

I am unsure what is being returned, and what is supposed to be returned, when using 'predict' with "type='expected'" for an aftreg survival model. The code below first generates a weibull model, then uses predict to create a vector of the linear predictors, then attempts to create the 'expected' vector, which is empty. The final two steps in the code generate a

Hi list! I'm getting an error message when trying to fit an accelerated failure time parametric model using the aftreg() function from package eha: > Error in optim(beta, Fmin, method = "BFGS", control = list(trace = > as.integer(printlevel)), : > non-finite finite-difference value [2] This only happens when adding four specific covariates at the same time in the

Dear all, I have some trouble using the "id"-argument with aftreg (accelerated failure time regression analysis from the eha library). As far as I understand it, the id argument is used to group individuals together if there are time-varying covariates and the data is arranged in counting process style. Unfortunately, i cannot figure out how to use the "id"-argument. The

Dear R-users I would like to fit weibull parameters using "Method of moments" in order to provide the inital values of the parameter to de function 'fitdistr' . I don`t have much experience with maths and I don't know how to do it. Can anyone please put me in the rigth direction? Borja [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

G?ran, thanks for the update, I'm just about to install it! Just wanted to drop you a short line about performance (as you once requested): aftreg takes ages on my windows machine to calculate a small set of 7 observations which are not even grouped together by "id". To be a bit more precise, it takes 2:40 mins on my Intel T9300 Core2 Duo @ 2.5 GHz. Bigger samples with about 700

Dear all, does anyone know how I can extract specific p-values for covariates from an aftreg object? After fitting a model with aftreg I can find all different variables by using str(), but there's no place where p-values are kept. The odd thing is that print() displays them correctly. EXAMPLE: > testdata start stop censor groupvar var1 var2 1 0 1 0

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)

Hi, I have a question about how to extract paramters from a fitted model. I can extract coefficients and std, but from some other statistics, I dont know how to extract. Can anyone help? Here it is an example: > coxout<-coxph(Surv(t,t.censor)~x) > coxout Call: coxph(formula = Surv(t, t.censor) ~ x) coef exp(coef) se(coef) z p x 0.349 1.42 0.257 1.36 0.17 Likelihood

Dear useRs, I am currently fitting an advanced failure time model using G?ran Brostr?m's excellent "eha" library with the "aftreg" command. My question: How do I interpret the "Overall p-value", that is reported at the very bottom of the output? I already figured out it must be a chi-square test, but I am wondering what a p-value < 0.01 means: Does it mean

dear r experts: It seems my message got spam filtered, another try: i would appreciate advice on how to get the p-value from the object 'sr' created with the function survreg() as given below. vlad sr<-survreg(s~groups, dist="gaussian") Coefficients: (Intercept) groups -0.02138485 0.03868351 Scale= 0.01789372 Loglik(model)= 31.1 Loglik(intercept only)= 25.4

I was wondering if someone familiar with survival analysis can help me with the following. I would like to fit a Weibull curve, that may be dependent on a covariate, my dataframe "labdata" that has the fields "cov", "time", and "censor". Do I do the following? wieb<-survreg(Surv(labdata$time, labadata$censor)~labdata$cov,

I am calculating cox propotional hazards models with the coxph function from the survival package. My data relates to failure of various types of endovascular interventions. I can successfully obtain the LR, Wald, and Score test p-values from the coxph.object, as well as the hazard ratio as follows: formula.obj = Surv(days, status) ~ type coxph.model = coxph(formula.obj, df) fit =

Thanks Dirk, Sorry about that, but my real question was (see below): "Is the problem that openblas uses C versions of blas?" That is, do I need to change F77_CALL(name)(...); to cblas_name(...); everywhere? And if so, is

Dear R-users, I have two samples with individuals that are in more than one of the samples and individuals that are only in one sample. I have been trying to do a pooled hazard model, stacking one sample below the other, with aftreg and time-dependent covariates. The idea behind is to see aggregate effects of covariates, but need to control for ther effects of same individuals in both samples

Dear list, I am fitting a logistic multi-level regression model and need to test the difference between the ordinary logistic regression from a glm() fit and the mixed effects fit from glmer(), basically I want to do a likelihood ratio test between the two fits. The data are like this: My outcome is a (1,0) for health status, I have several (1,0) dummy variables RURAL, SMOKE, DRINK, EMPLOYED,
