hello,everyone:
I am now confused in multistate survival , when I want to poccess a
multistate survival analysis, I turn to R and the package 'mstate' and packege
'cmprsk'. When I come to publishing the article.
Follow requirement of the magzine, the statistic is carry out in LTA package
(which was said to be a authority in intauterine from WHO) . There we found
difference in the results(incidence ratio or survival function) computed by the
two software. I also come to the result from SAS, carry out survival analysis
for each cause seperately using prod-limit method,. the result is closed to LTA
rather than R.
why ? is the result from R better than LTA or carry out survival analysis for
each cause seperately using prod-limit method?
thanks a lot!
sincerecely
