simpleCox: Cox model for each type of event separately

Description

fits Cox models for each risk and group, treating other type of events as censoring.

Usage

fitCox(time, risk, group, cens = NULL, conf.int = 0.95)

Arguments

time

vector with times of the first event or follow-up, must be numeric.

risk

vector with type of event, can be numeric or factor/character.

group

vector with group variable, can be numeric or factor/character.

cens

value of 'risk' indicating censored observation (if NULL, the first value of 'risk' vector will be taken).

conf.int

conf.int level of two-sided confidence interval (default = 0.95).

Value

a list of length n, where n is number of risks. Each element of a list is a result of summary.coxph function from package survival, where there is only one type of event possible (other are treating as censored).
