Each patient had one eye randomized to laser treatment and the other eye received no treatment. For each eye, the event of interest was the time from initiation of treatment to the time when visual acuity dropped below 5/200 two visits in a row. Thus there is a built-in lag time of approximately 6 months (visits were every 3 months). Survival times in this dataset are therefore the actual time to blindness in months, minus the minimum possible time to event (6.5 months). Censoring was caused by death, dropout, or end of the study. </p> <h3>References</h3> <p>Huster, Brookmeyer and Self, Biometrics, 1989. </p> <p>American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1976, 81:4, pp 383-396 </p> <h3>Examples</h3> <pre> # juvenile diabetes is defined as and age less than 20 juvenile <- 1*(diabetic$age < 20) coxph(Surv(time, status) ~ trt + juvenile + cluster(id), data= diabetic) </pre> <hr /><div style="text-align: center;">[Package <em>survival</em> version 2.44-1.1 <a href="00Index.html">Index</a>]</div> </body></html>
