How can I model coxph() in combination with competing risks i.e. I have two events and for event the object will leave the data set. So : Coxph(Surv(time,event)~....) the event is for all my objects 1. How can I model this?

Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Sharon Mazurel and I'm busy with my final thesis about estimating the probability of the success or withdrawal of a merger or acquisition. For my model I also use duration analysis and found after doing some research that the coxph function in R is very useful. My question is: In the Surv object you have two arguments, "time" and "event". I

Dear All, a Surv object I put in a data frame behaves somehow unexpected (see example). If I do a Cox regression on the original Surv object it works. If I put it in a data.frame and do the regression on the data frame it does not work. Seemingly it has to do with the class attribute, because if I change the class attribute to let "Surv" appeare first, again it works. Is this known?

My question is, how to compute hazard function(H(t)) after building the coxph model. I even aware of the terminology that differs from hazard function(H(t)) and the hazard rate(h(t)). Here onward I wish to calculate both. Here what I have done in two different methods; ##########################################################################################

Dear List, After including cluster() option the coxreg (from eha package) produces results slightly different than that of coxph (from survival) in the following time-dependent treatment effect calculation (example is used just to make the point). Will appreciate any explaination / comment. cheers, Ehsan ############################ require(survival) require(eha) data(heart) # create weights

Hi, I am experimenting with using glht() from multcomp package together with coxph(), and glad to find that glht() can work on coph object, for example: > (fit<-coxph(Surv(stop, status>0)~treatment,bladder1)) coxph(formula = Surv(stop, status > 0) ~ treatment, data = bladder1) coef exp(coef) se(coef) z p treatmentpyridoxine -0.063 0.939 0.161

Full_Name: John E. Kolassa Version: Version 1.8.1 OS: Solaris Submission from: (NULL) (128.6.76.36) Stepwise model selection for coxph appears to fail with method="exact".

Dear R users, I noticed a problem in the anova command when applied on a single coxph object if there are missing observations in the data: This example code was run on R-2.6.1: > library(survival) > data(colon) > colondeath = colon[colon$etype==2, ] > m = coxph(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + sex + age + perfor, data=colondeath) > m Call: coxph(formula = Surv(time, status) ~ rx +

Hi, I am getting errors of the following kind. I can't seem to point the source of the error. I would greatly appreciate any advice. Many thanks and good day, -Melinda Error message : ---------------- "Ran out of iterations and did not converge in: fitter(X, Y, strats, offset, init, control, weights = weights,..."

Hello, I am fitting a coxph model with factors. I am running into problems when using 'survfit'. I am unsure how R is treating the factors when I fit, say: > DATA<-data.frame(time.sec,done,f.pom=factor(f.pom),po,vo) > final<-coxph(Surv(time.sec,done)~f.pom*vo+po,data=DATA) > final.surv<-survfit((final), individual=T,conf.type="log-log")

Dear List, Can anyone please explain the difference between cluster() and frailty() in a coxph? I am a bit puzzled about it. Would appreciate any useful reference or direction. cheers, Ehsan > marginal.model <- coxph(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + cluster(litter), rats) > frailty.model <- coxph(Surv(time, status) ~ rx + frailty(litter), rats) > marginal.model Call: coxph(formula =

Hello I've decided to try and distill an earlier rather ill focused question to try and elicit a response. Any help is greatly appreciated. Why does mod.cox not work with sbrier whilst mod.km does? Can I make it work? > data(DLBCL) > DLBCL.surv<-Surv(DLBCL$time,DLBCL$cens) > > mod.km<-survfit(DLBCL.surv) > mod.cox<-survfit(coxph(DLBCL.surv~IPI, data=DLBCL)) >

Dear All: I have a question on using coxph for multiple genes: I have written code to loop through all 22283 genes in the Hgu-133A and apply coxph on survival data. However, I don't know how to work with the result for each gene: survtest<-coxph(Surv(pcc.primary.stg.3.cox[,'fup_interval'],pcc.primary.stg.

Hi all, I have some questions about the predicted HR in coxph function including psline covariate. If just fitting covariate as linear form, by default, the reference value for each of predictions type (linear predictor, risk and terms) is the mean covariate within strata. If the psline is specified for the covariate, what's the reference value for the predictions? I did some test code

Hello, I wonder when I do coxph in R: coxph( Surv(start, stop, event) ~ x, data=test) If x is a categorical varible (1,2,3,4,5), should I creat four dummy varibles for it? if yes, how can I get the overall p value on x other than for each dummy variable?

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 R-help - Thanks to those who replied yesterday (Christos H. and Thomas L.) regarding my question on coxph and model formula, the answers worked perfectly. My new question involves the following. I want to run several coxph models (package survival) with the same dataset, but different subsets of that dataset. I have found a way to do this, described below in functions subwrap1 and

Dear users, In a study with recurrent events: My objective is to get estimates of survival (obtained through a Cox model) by rank of recurrence and by treatment group. With the following code (corresponding to a model with a global effect of the treatment=rx), I get no error and manage to obtain what I want : data<-(bladder)

Dear all, I'm having difficulty getting access to data generated by survfit and print.survfit when they are using with a Cox model (survfit.coxph). I would like to programmatically access the median survival time for each strata together with the 95% confidence interval. I can get it on screen, but can't get to it algorithmically. I found myself examining the source of print.survfit to

I tried to compare if cch() and coxph() can generate same result for same case cohort data Use the standard data in cch(): nwtco Since in cch contains the cohort size=4028, while ccoh.data size =1154 after selection, but coxph does not contain info of cohort size=4028. The rough estimate between coxph() and cch() is same, but the lower and upper CI and P-value are a little different. Can we
