plotbe: Breslow Estimator of the Cumulative Baseline Hazard Rate Function

Description

Calculates the Breslow estimator of the cumulative baseline hazard rate functions.

Usage

plotbe(m, mpl, return.be = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

m

estimated stratified coxph model.

mpl

model parameter list.

return.be

should a list containing the Breslow estimator values be returned?

...

further arguments and graphical parameters passed to plot, e.g. xlim for a re-specification of the shown time axis.

Value

Plot of the Breslow estimator for the transition-type specific cumulative baseline hazard rate functions.

Details

The function is a specific wrapper function to the function basehaz from the R package survival.
