Hi, Is it normal to get intercept in the list of covariates in the output of survreg function with standard error, z, p.value etc? Does it mean that intercept was fitted with the covariates? Does Value column represent coefficients or some thing else? Regards, ------------------------------------------------- tmp = survreg(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ ecog.ps + rx, ovarian,

Dear All: I have some questions about the output of coxph. Below is the input and output: ---------------------------------------- > coxph(formula = Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age + rx + ecog.ps, data = + ovarian, x = TRUE) Call: coxph(formula = Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age + rx + ecog.ps, data = ovarian, x = TRUE) coef exp(coef) se(coef) z p age 0.147 1.158

Hello, I have questions regarding penalized Cox regression using survival package (functions coxph() and ridge()). I am using R 2.8.0 on Ubuntu Linux and survival package version 2.35-4. Question 1. Consider the following example from help(ridge): > fit1 <- coxph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ rx + ridge(age, ecog.ps, theta=1), ovarian) As I understand, this builds a model in which `rx' is

Hello, I am having some trouble with the 'censoring-adjusted C-index' by Uno et al, in the package survAUC. The relevant function is UnoC. The question has to do with what happens when I specify a time point t for the upper limit of the time range under consideration (we want to avoid using the right-end tail of the KM curve). Copying from the example in the help file: TR <-

Given a cox model: library(Hmisc); library(survival); (library(Design); cox.model=cph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age, data=ovarian, surv=T) str(cox.model) What I need is the total estimated time until failure (death), not the probability of failing at a given time (survival probability), or hazard etc, which is what I get from survest and predict for example. I suspect the answer is

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)

I am trying to fit a lognormal distribution on interval-censored data. Some of my intervals have a lower bound of zero. Unfortunately, it seems like survreg() cannot deal with lower bounds of zero, despite the fact that plnorm(0)==0 and pnorm(-Inf)==0 are well defined. Below is a short example to reproduce the problem. Does anyone know why survreg() must behave that way? Is there an alternate

It seems to me that R returns the unpenalized log-likelihood for the ratio likelihood test when ridge regression Cox proportional model is implemented. Is this as expected? In the example below, if I am not mistaken, fit$loglik[2] is unpenalized log-likelihood for the final estimates of coefficients. I would expect to get the penalized log-likelihood. I would like to check if this is as expected.

Hello everyone, I tried to use coxph.detail() to get the hazard function. But a warning messge always returns to me, even in the example provided by its help document: > ?coxph.detail > fit <- coxph(Surv(futime,fustat) ~ age + rx + ecog.ps, ovarian, x=TRUE) > fitd <- coxph.detail(fit) Warning message: data length [37] is not a sub-multiple or multiple of the number of rows

I am wondering how to estimate the survival curve for a particular case(s) given a coxph model using this example code: #fit a cox proportional hazards model and plot the #predicted survival curve fit <- coxph( Surv(futime,fustat)~resid.ds+strata(rx)+ecog.ps+age,data=ovarian[1:23,]) z <- survfit(fit,newdata=ovarian[24:26,],individual=F) zs <- z$surv zt <-

Dear UseR, I do not know if this a problem with me, my data or cph/survest in package design. The example below works with a standard data set, but not with my data, but I cannot locate the problem. Note that I am using an older package of survival to avoid a problem with the newly renamed function in survival meeting Design. Dieter # First, check standard example to make sure library(Design)

It seems to me that summary for ridge coxph() prints summary but returns NULL. It is not a big issue because one can calculate statistics directly from a coxph.object. However, for some reason the score test is not calculated for ridge coxph(), i.e score nor rscore components are not included in the coxph object when ridge is specified. Please find the code below. I use 2.9.2 R with 2.35-4 version

Hello, i have this dataset http://www.umass.edu/statdata/statdata/data/pharynx.txt. the variables GRADE, T_STAGE anda N_STAGE are qualitative or quantitative variables??? i only have this simple doubt...! another example: why in the dataset ovarian (library survival) the variable ecog.ps: ECOG performance status (1 is better, see reference) it is consider quantitative? Thank's for

Hi all, Using: R version 2.8.1 Patched (2009-03-07 r48068) on OSX (10.5.6) with survival version: Version: 2.35-3 Date: 2009-02-10 I get the following using the first example in ?summary.survfit: > summary( survfit( Surv(futime, fustat)~1, data=ovarian)) Call: survfit(formula = Surv(futime, fustat) ~ 1, data = ovarian) time n.risk n.event survival

Dear all, I am using R 3.4.3 on Windows 10. I am preparing some teaching materials and I'm having trouble matching the by-hand version with the R code. I have fitted a Cox model - let's use the ovarian data as an example: library(survival) data(ovarian) ova_mod <- coxph(Surv(futime,fustat)~age+rx,data=ovarian) If I want to make predict survival for a new set of individuals at 100

Dear R users, I am trying to use "muhaz" and "plot.muhaz" functions in "muhaz" package to estimate and plot hazard funciton. However function "muhaz" always gives error message "Error in Surv(times, delta) : object "times" not found". I could not even run their sample codes in the user's manual as follows: data(ovarian)

Hi,Just a quick one, does anyone know the command for accessing the standard errors from a survreg object? I can access the coefficients by model$coefficients, but I cant seem to find a command to access the errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Regards,Andre [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I've had no luck finding an R package that has the ability to estimate a Tobit model allowing for heteroskedasticity (multiplicative, for example). Am I missing something in survReg? Is there another package that I'm unaware of? Is there an add-on package that will test for heteroskedasticity? Thanks for your help. Cheers, Alan Spearot -- Alan Spearot Department of Economics

I am cleaning up the rms package to not export functions not to be called directly by users. rms uses generic functions defined in other packages. For example there is a latex method in the Hmisc package, and rms has a latex method for objects of class "anova.rms" so there are anova.rms and latex.anova.rms functions in rms. I use:
