Dear All,
I want to have the cumulative incidence curves for 'mstate' data
using
Survival package in R. But I got some problems:
I. Problem 1:
1. If I only use intercept without any covariates, I can have
'right'
cumulative incidence curves (2 for 2 competing risks):
library(Survival)
That shouldn't work;)
This is from an example from the Survival package...
Sorry; the problem is that 'survival' should be with lower-case 's'
fitCI <- survfit(Surv(stop, status*as.numeric(event),
type="mstate") ~
1,data=mgus1, subset=(start==0))
plot(fitCI)
2. If I include one variate ('sex'), I get 4 curves (attached; I
guess
because there are two levels in 'sex' and 2 competing risks):
fitCI <- survfit(Surv(stop, status*as.numeric(event), type="mstate")
~sex,data=mgus1, subset=(start==0))
plot(fitCI)
However, I want to just have 2 cumulative incidence curves
estimated from
several covariates (such as 'sex', 'age', 'alb', etc. in mgus1).
Could you
please help me to do that? Thank you very much!
I suggest that you check the Task Views, under 'Survival' and
'Multistate Models', for instance the 'cmprsk' and 'timereg' packages.
II. Problem 2:
I try using an example from sourcecode.pdf:
fit <- survfit(Surv(time, status, type=’mstate’) ~ sex, data=mine)
but where can I have the 'mine' data? Thank you!
Where do you find 'sourcecode.pdf'?
It's from
http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/survival/doc/sourcecode.pdf
I see; that is a generic example, I suppose. The data set 'mine' is one
of your choice! But, as I suggested, look into the packages listed under
'Multistate models' in 'Survival' under 'Task Views'. What you ask for
cannot be accomplished with the package 'survival'.
