Stata 4, Survival Hein Stigum Presentation, data and programs at: http://folk.uio.no/heins/ H.S.
Agenda • Kaplan-Meier plots • Cox regression • Example • Age at first intercourse H.S.
Survival data Outcome: • Unajusted analysis • Kaplan-Meier • Regression method • Cox-regression H.S.
Survival data setup • Status and time generate status=!missing(DebutAge) generate time=DebutAge replace time=Age if status==0 generate time2=time+uniform() avoid ties • Set and describe stset time, failure(status==1) Set data stdes Describe H.S.
Setting the timescale Time = time since diagnosis in years: stset dateexit, failure(dead==1) origin(datediag) scale(365.25) Time = age in years: stset dateexit, failure(dead==1) origin(datebth) enter(datediag) scale(365.25) H.S.
Mathematical functions • Standard distribution functions Time to event T Density f(t) Cumulative density F(t) • Survival functions H.S.
Some relationships H.S.
