The ESTIMATE statement syntax enables you to specify the coefficient vector in sections as just described, with one section for each model effect: Note that this same coefficient vector is given in the table of LS-means coefficients, which was requested by the E option in the LSMEANS statement. When the procedure reports a log pseudo-likelihood you cannot construct a LR test to compare models. Nonparametric methods provide simple and quick looks at the survival experience, and the Cox proportional hazards regression model remains the dominant analysis method. On the right panel, Residuals at Specified Smooths for martingale, are the smoothed residual plots, all of which appear to have no structure. We see that beyond beyond 1,671 days, 50% of the population is expected to have failed. Parameters corresponding to missing level combinations are not included in the model. In the output we find three Chi-square based tests of the equality of the survival function over strata, which support our suspicion that survival differs between genders. This option is ignored in the computation of the hazard ratios for a CLASS variable. This is the default coding scheme for CLASS variables in most procedures including GLM, MIXED, GLIMMIX, and GENMOD. This seminar covers both proc lifetest and proc phreg, and data can be structured in one of 2 ways for survival analysis. For this reason, it is known as a full-rank parameterization. The EXP option exponentiates each difference providing odds ratio estimates for each pair. During the interval [382,385) 1 out of 355 subjects at-risk died, yielding a conditional probability of survival (the probability of survival in the given interval, given that the subject has survived up to the begininng of the interval) in this interval of \(\frac{355-1}{355}=0.9972\). The exponential function is also equal to 1 when its argument is equal to 0. If is a vector, define ABS() to be the largest absolute value of the elements of . The second three parameters are the effects of the treatments within the uncomplicated diagnosis. First, write the model, being sure to verify its parameters and their order from the procedure's displayed results: Now write each part of the contrast in terms of the effects-coded model (3e). Biometrika. We can examine residual plots for each smooth (with loess smooth themselves) by specifying the, List all covariates whose functional forms are to be checked within parentheses after, Scaled Schoenfeld residuals are obtained in the output dataset, so we will need to supply the name of an output dataset using the, SAS provides Schoenfeld residuals for each covariate, and they are output in the same order as the coefficients are listed in the Analysis of Maximum Likelihood Estimates table. Finally, writing the hypothesis 12 1/6ijij in terms of the model results in these contrast coefficients: 0 for , 1/2 and 1/2 for A, 1/3, 2/3, and 1/3 for B, and 1/6, 5/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, and 1/6 for AB. The ESTIMATE statement provides a mechanism for obtaining custom hypothesis tests. There are two crucial parts to this: Write down the hypothesis to be tested or quantity to be estimated in terms of the model's parameters and simplify. We can similarly calculate the joint probability of observing each of the \(n\) subjects failure times, or the likelihood of the failure times, as a function of the regression parameters, \(\beta\), given the subjects covariates values \(x_j\): \[L(\beta) = \prod_{j=1}^{n} \Bigg\lbrace\frac{exp(x_j\beta)}{\sum_{iin R_j}exp(x_i\beta)}\Bigg\rbrace\]. The following examples concentrate on using the steps above in this situation. Some procedures, like PROC LOGISTIC, produce a Wald chi-square statistic instead of a likelihood ratio statistic. and what i need is the hard ratios for outcome on exposure. PROC GENMOD produces the Wald statistic when the WALD option is used in the CONTRAST statement. This is required so that the probability of being a case is modeled. Acquiring more than one curve, whether survival or hazard, after Cox regression in SAS requires use of the baseline statement in conjunction with the creation of a small dataset of covariate values at which to estimate our curves of interest. In this seminar we will be analyzing the data of 500 subjects of the Worcester Heart Attack Study (referred to henceforth as WHAS500, distributed with Hosmer & Lemeshow(2008)). Note that some functions, like ratios, are nonlinear combinations and cannot generally be obtained with these statements. Using dummy coding, the right-hand side of the logistic model looks like it does when modeling a normally distributed response as in Example 1: where i=1,2,,5, j=1,2, k=1, 2,,Nij. then the procedure provides no results, either displaying Non-est in the table of results or issuing this message in the log: The estimate is declared nonestimable simply because the coefficients 1/3 and 1/6 are not represented precisely enough. Proc PHREG - Random Statement. Notice the additional option, We then specify the name of this dataset in the, We request separate lines for each age using, We request that SAS create separate survival curves by the, We also add the newly created time-varying covariate to the, Run a null Cox regression model by leaving the right side of equation empty on the, Save the martingale residuals to an output dataset using the, The fraction of the data contained in each neighborhood is determined by the, A desirable feature of loess smooth is that the residuals from the regression do not have any structure. Beside using the solution option to get the parameter estimates, run; proc corr data = whas500 plots(maxpoints=none)=matrix(histogram); The parameter for the intercept is the expected cell mean for ses =3 Most of the variables are at least slightly correlated with the other variables. These two observations, id=89 and id=112, have very low but not unreasonable bmi scores, 15.9 and 14.8. By default, PROC GENMOD computes a likelihood ratio test for the specified contrast. In the second table, we see that the hazard ratio between genders, \(\frac{HR(gender=1)}{HR(gender=0)}\), decreases with age, significantly different from 1 at age = 0 and age = 20, but becoming non-signicant by 40. This note focuses on assessing the effects of categorical (CLASS) variables in models containing interactions. specifies that the exponentiated contrast be estimated. You can estimate the contrast or the exponentiated contrast (), or both, by specifying one of the following keywords: specifies that the contrast itself be estimated. hazardratio 'Effect of gender across ages' gender / at(age=(0 20 40 60 80)); Because of the positive skew often seen with followup-times, medians are often a better indicator of an average survival time. where \(n_i\) is the number of subjects at risk and \(d_i\) is the number of subjects who fail, both at time \(t_i\). We, as researchers, might be interested in exploring the effects of being hospitalized on the hazard rate. output out=residuals resmart=martingale; The survival function is undefined past this final interval at 2358 days. A More Complex Contrast The CONTRAST statement tests the hypothesis L=0, where L is the hypothesis matrix and is the vector of model parameters. The LSMESTIMATE statement can also be used. A main effect parameter is interpreted as the deviation of the level's effect from the average effect of all the levels. Biometrika. The PHREG Procedure Example 91.12 demonstrated that the log transform is a much improved functional form for Bilirubin in a Cox regression model. Because of this parameterization, covariate effects are multiplicative rather than additive and are expressed as hazard ratios, rather than hazard differences. exposure(0=no exposure, 1= yes exposure)and outcome(0=no outcome, 1= yes outcome) variable are all binary. Hazard ratios are computed at each value of the list if the list is specified, or at each level of the interacting variable if ALL is specified, or at the reference level of the interacting variable if REF is specified. Follow up time for all participants begins at the time of hospital admission after heart attack and ends with death or loss to follow up (censoring). Stated another way, are any of the interaction parameters not equal to zero as implied by the main-effects model? Thus, each term in the product is the conditional probability of survival beyond time \(t_i\), meaning the probability of surviving beyond time \(t_i\), given the subject has survived up to time \(t_i\).

INTRODUCTION The PROC LIFEREG and the PROC PHREG procedures both can do survival analysis using time-to-event data, . Watch this tutorial for more. class gender; Understanding the mechanics behind survival analysis is aided by facility with the distributions used, which can be derived from the probability density function and cumulative density functions of survival times. Some procedures allow multiple types of coding. Therneau, TM, Grambsch, PM. else in_hosp = 1; output out = dfbeta dfbeta=dfgender dfage dfagegender dfbmi dfbmibmi dfhr; Our goal is to transform the data from its original state: to an expanded state that can accommodate time-varying covariates, like this (notice the new variable in_hosp): Notice the creation of start and stop variables, which denote the beginning and end intervals defined by hospitalization and death (or censoring). Lets take a look at later survival times in the table: From LENFOL=368 to 376, we see that there are several records where it appears no events occurred. PROC PHREG syntax is similar to that of the other regression procedures in the SAS System. of the mean for cell ses =1 and the cell ses =3. Once you have identified the outliers, it is good practice to check that their data were not incorrectly entered. Finally, we calculate the hazard ratio describing a 5-unit increase in bmi, or \(\frac{HR(bmi+5)}{HR(bmi)}\), at clinically revelant BMI scores. Had B preceded A in the CLASS statement, the levels of A would have changed before the levels of B, resulting in the second estimate being for 21. Ignore the nonproportionality if it appears the changes in the coefficient over time are very small or if it appears the outliers are driving the changes in the coefficient. All of the statements mentioned above can be used for this purpose. The statements below fit the model, estimate each part of the hypothesis, and estimate and test the hypothesis. The first 12 examples use the classical method of maximum likelihood, while the last two examples illustrate the Bayesian methodology. With appropriate data modification and weighting as described above, this baseline hazard function is exactly equal to the baseline subdistribution hazard function of a PSH model. Most of the time we will not know a priori the distribution generating our observed survival times, but we can get and idea of what it looks like using nonparametric methods in SAS with proc univariate. Some data management will be required to ensure that everyone is properly censored in each interval. All of these variables vary quite a bit in these data. We see in the table above, that the typical subject in our dataset is more likely male, 70 years of age, with a bmi of 26.6 and heart rate of 87. Researchers are often interested in estimates of survival time at which 50% or 25% of the population have died or failed. model lenfol*fstat(0) = gender|age bmi|bmi hr; Wiley: Hoboken. In this interval, we can see that we had 500 people at risk and that no one died, as Observed Events equals 0 and the estimate of the Survival function is 1.0000. class gender; The CONTRAST statement provides a mechanism for obtaining customized hypothesis tests. Therefore, this contrast is also estimated by the parameter for treatment A within the complicated diagnosis in the nested effect. It is important to know how variable levels change within the set of parameter estimates for an effect. Similarly, the SLICEBY, DIFF, and EXP options in the SLICE statement estimate and test differences and odds ratios in the complicated diagnosis. where \(d_i\) is the number who failed out of \(n_i\) at risk in interval \(t_i\). (1993). Hello. R$3T\T;3b'P,QM$?LFm;tRmPsTTc+Rk/2ujaAllaD;DpK.@S!r"xJ3dM.BkvP2@doUOsuu8wuYu1^vaAxm which has three levels. We generally expect the hazard rate to change smoothly (if it changes) over time, rather than jump around haphazardly. With effects coding, each row of L can be written to select just one interaction parameter when multiplied by . Plots of the covariate versus martingale residuals can help us get an idea of what the functional from might be. The rows of are specified in order and are separated by commas. From the plot we can see that the hazard function indeed appears higher at the beginning of follow-up time and then decreases until it levels off at around 500 days and stays low and mostly constant. If convergence is not attained in n iterations, the corresponding profile-likelihood confidence limit for the hazard ratio is set to missing. The ODDSRATIO statement used above with dummy coding provides the same results with effects coding. Estimating and Testing Odds Ratios with Effects Coding In other words, we would expect to find a lot of failure times in a given time interval if 1) the hazard rate is high and 2) there are still a lot of subjects at-risk. Release is the software release in which the problem is planned to be In such cases, the correct form may be inferred from the plot of the observed pattern. Two logistic models are fit in this example: The first model is saturated, meaning that it contains all possible main effects and interactions using all available degrees of freedom. run; proc lifetest data=whas500 atrisk outs=outwhas500; While the main purpose of this note is to illustrate how to write proper CONTRAST and ESTIMATE statements, these additional statements are also presented when they can provide equivalent analyses. run; proc phreg data = whas500; A central assumption of Cox regression is that covariate effects on the hazard rate, namely hazard ratios, are constant over time. As we see above, one of the great advantages of the Cox model is that estimating predictor effects does not depend on making assumptions about the form of the baseline hazard function, \(h_0(t)\), which can be left unspecified. Table 1: PROC PHREG Statement Options You can specify the following options in the PROC PHREG statement. The following parameters are specified in the CONTRAST statement: identifies the contrast on the output. This can be done by multiplying the vector of parameter estimates (the solution vector) by a vector of coefficients such that their product is this sum. Optionally, the CONTRAST statement enables you to estimate each row, , of and test the hypothesis . In addition to using the CONTRAST statement, a likelihood ratio test can be constructed using the likelihood values obtained by fitting each of the two models. The probability of surviving the next interval, from 2 days to just before 3 days during which another 8 people died, given that the subject has survived 2 days (the conditional probability) is \(\frac{492-8}{492} = 0.98374\). model lenfol*fstat(0) = gender|age bmi hr; For observation \(j\), \(df\beta_j\) approximates the change in a coefficient when that observation is deleted. Multiple degree-of-freedom hypotheses can be tested by specifying multiple row-descriptions. Specifically, you need to construct the linear combination of model parameters that corresponds to the hypothesis. The LSMESTIMATE statement allows you to request specific comparisons. The response, Y, is normally distributed with constant variance. model lenfol*fstat(0) = gender|age bmi|bmi hr ; You can obtain Schoenfeld residuals and score residuals by using the OUTPUT statement. class gender; Examples: PHREG Procedure References The PLAN Procedure The PLS Procedure The POWER Procedure The Power and Sample Size Application The PRINCOMP Procedure The PRINQUAL Procedure The PROBIT Procedure The QUANTREG Procedure The REG Procedure The ROBUSTREG Procedure The RSREG Procedure The SCORE Procedure The SEQDESIGN Procedure The SEQTEST Procedure The estimate of survival beyond 3 days based off this Nelson-Aalen estimate of the cumulative hazard would then be \(\hat S(3) = exp(-0.0385) = 0.9623\). Since the contrast involves only the ten LS-means, it is much more straight-forward to specify. This is reinforced by the three significant tests of equality. Nevertheless, the bmi graph at the top right above does not look particularly random, as again we have large positive residuals at low bmi values and smaller negative residuals at higher bmi values. To assess the effects of continuous variables involved in interactions or constructed effects such as splines, see this note. Survival analysis often begins with examination of the overall survival experience through non-parametric methods, such as Kaplan-Meier (product-limit) and life-table estimators of the survival function. See the example titled "Comparing nested models with a likelihood ratio test" which illustrates using the %VUONG macro to produce the same test as obtained above from the CONTRAST statement in PROC GENMOD. Thus far in this seminar we have only dealt with covariates with values fixed across follow up time. Computed statistics are based on the asymptotic chi-square distribution of the Wald statistic. Survivor Function Estimates for Specific Covariate Values; Analysis of Residuals; It is quite powerful, as it allows for truncation, time-varying covariates and . rights reserved. It is available only for the Bayesian analysis. The survival function drops most steeply at the beginning of study, suggesting that the hazard rate is highest immediately after hospitalization during the first 200 days. In the Cox proportional hazards model, additive changes in the covariates are assumed to have constant multiplicative effects on the hazard rate (expressed as the hazard ratio (\(HR\))): In other words, each unit change in the covariate, no matter at what level of the covariate, is associated with the same percent change in the hazard rate, or a constant hazard ratio. These provide some statistical background for survival analysis for the interested reader (and for the author of the seminar!). statement to get the L matrix. (Js")*sv1t1} #Hqk*"lf,Rv$"TAlM@e (braP)NP r*$O2H3;0dFik-T'G2\QSDRT2H)!I+M) For simple pairwise contrasts like this involving a single effect, there are several other ways to obtain the test. Several covariates can be evaluated simultaneously. Non-parametric methods are appealing because no assumption of the shape of the survivor function nor of the hazard function need be made. The DIFF option in the LSMEANS statement provides all pairwise comparisons of the ten LS-means. proc sgplot data = dfbeta; This indicates that omitting bmi from the model causes those with low bmi values to modeled with too low a hazard rate (as the number of observed events is in excess of the expected number of events). The above relationship between the cdf and pdf also implies: In SAS, we can graph an estimate of the cdf using proc univariate. The significant AGE*GENDER interaction term suggests that the effect of age is different by gender. In the relation above, \(s^\star_{kp}\) is the scaled Schoenfeld residual for covariate \(p\) at time \(k\), \(\beta_p\) is the time-invariant coefficient, and \(\beta_j(t_k)\) is the time-variant coefficient. Using effects coding, the model still looks like model 3b, but the design variables for diagnosis and treatment are defined differently as you can see in the following table. Let us further suppose, for illustrative purposes, that the hazard rate stays constant at \(\frac{x}{t}\) (\(x\) number of failures per unit time \(t\)) over the interval \([0,t]\). The WEIGHT statement in PROC CATMOD enables you to input data summarized in cell count form. model lenfol*fstat(0) = gender|age bmi|bmi hr; This is the log odds. Writing the means and their difference in terms of model (2): The following ESTIMATE and CONTRAST statements estimate these means, their difference, and also test that the difference is equal to zero. For a CLASS variable, a hazard ratio compares the hazards of two levels of the variable. The following statements print the log odds for treatments A and C in the complicated diagnosis. Note that the CONTRAST and ESTIMATE statements are the most flexible allowing for any linear combination of model parameters. The DIFF and SLICEBY(A='1') options in the SLICE statement estimate the differences in LS-means at A=1. If, say, a regression coefficient changes only by 1% over time, it is unlikely that any overarching conclusions of the study would be affected. First, each of the effects, including both interactions, are significant. displays the vector of linear coefficients such that is the log-hazard ratio, with being the vector of regression coefficients. exposure(0=no exposure, 1= yes exposure) and outcome(0=no outcome, 1= yes outcome) variable are all binary. class gender; The default is UNITS=1. First, there may be one row of data per subject, with one outcome variable representing the time to event, one variable that codes for whether the event occurred or not (censored), and explanatory variables of interest, each with fixed values across follow up time. 1 0 obj << /Type /Page /Parent 8 0 R /Resources 3 0 R /Contents 2 0 R >> endobj 2 0 obj << /Length 2896 /Filter /LZWDecode >> stream ; Notice that Row2 is the coefficient vector for computing the mean of the AB12 cell. So the log odds is: The following PROC LOGISTIC statements fit the effects-coded model and estimate the contrast: The same log odds ratio and odds ratio estimates are obtained as from the dummy-coded model. Additionally, none of the supremum tests are significant, suggesting that our residuals are not larger than expected. my dataset includes age, period, outcome, drug age : 1 2 3 (categorical variable) period : 1~365 days ( continuos variable) outcome( :0 1 ( 0 : without outcome, 1: with outcome) drug : 0 . For such studies, a semi-parametric model, in which we estimate regression parameters as covariate effects but ignore (leave unspecified) the dependence on time, is appropriate. You can perform hypothesis tests for the estimable functions, construct confidence limits, and obtain specific nonlinear transformations. (Technically, because there are no times less than 0, there should be no graph to the left of LENFOL=0). Each row of the table corresponds to an interval of time, beginning at the time in the LENFOL column for that row, and ending just before the time in the LENFOL column in the first subsequent row that has a different LENFOL value. With any procedure, models that are not nested cannot be compared using the LR test. The HAZARDRATIO statement enables you to request hazard ratios for any variable in the model at customized settings. In the following output, the first parameter of the treatment(diagnosis='complicated') effect tests the effect of treatment A versus the average treatment effect in the complicated diagnosis. rights reserved. The hazard rate thus describes the instantaneous rate of failure at time \(t\) and ignores the accumulation of hazard up to time \(t\) (unlike \(F(t\)) and \(S(t)\)). For example, we found that the gender effect seems to disappear after accounting for age, but we may suspect that the effect of age is different for each gender. The value that you specify in the option divides all the coefficients that are provided in the ESTIMATE statement. Alternatively, the data can be expanded in a data step, but this can be tedious and prone to errors (although instructive, on the other hand). Nevertheless, in both we can see that in these data, shorter survival times are more probable, indicating that the risk of heart attack is strong initially and tapers off as time passes. run; However, if that is not the case, then it may be possible to use programming statement within proc phreg to create variables that reflect the changing the status of a covariate. These results come from the LSMESTIMATE statement. PROC PHREG handles missing level combinations of categorical variables in the same manner as PROC GLM. Thus, to pull out all 6 \(df\beta_j\), we must supply 6 variable names for these \(df\beta_j\). Maximum likelihood methods attempt to find the \(\beta\) values that maximize this likelihood, that is, the regression parameters that yield the maximum joint probability of observing the set of failure times with the associated set of covariate values. Therneau and colleagues(1990) show that the smooth of a scatter plot of the martingale residuals from a null model (no covariates at all) versus each covariate individually will often approximate the correct functional form of a covariate. Expressing the above relationship as \(\frac{d}{dt}H(t) = h(t)\), we see that the hazard function describes the rate at which hazards are accumulated over time. Biometrika. Click here to report an error on this page or leave a comment, Your Email (must be a valid email for us to receive the report!). The numerator is the hazard of death for the subject who died These statistics are provided in most procedures using maximum likelihood estimation. This paper is not limited to any particular operating system. The order of \(df\beta_j\) in the current model are: gender, age, gender*age, bmi, bmi*bmi, hr. If ABS is greater than , then is declared nonestimable. However, this is something that cannot be estimated with the ODDSRATIO statement which only compares odds of levels of a specified variable. If our Cox model is correctly specified, these cumulative martingale sums should randomly fluctuate around 0. run; lenfol: length of followup, terminated either by death or censoring. Use the Class Level Information table which shows the design variable settings. Example Suppose we wish to fit a PH model to the data from . For example, if there were three subjects still at risk at time \(t_j\), the probability of observing subject 2 fail at time \(t_j\) would be: \[Pr(subject=2|failure=t_j)=\frac{h(t_j|x_2)}{h(t_j|x_1)+h(t_j|x_2)+h(t_j|x_3)}\]. Biometrics. Thus, we again feel justified in our choice of modeling a quadratic effect of bmi. Notice there is one row per subject, with one variable coding the time to event, lenfol: A second way to structure the data that only proc phreg accepts is the counting process style of input that allows multiple rows of data per subject. You can perform hypothesis tests for the estimable functions, construct confidence limits, and obtain specific nonlinear transformations. (1994). For example, the hazard rate when time \(t\) when \(x = x_1\) would then be \(h(t|x_1) = h_0(t)exp(x_1\beta_x)\), and at time \(t\) when \(x = x_2\) would be \(h(t|x_2) = h_0(t)exp(x_2\beta_x)\). proc sgplot data = dfbeta; If too many values are specified for an effect, the extra ones are ignored. This simpler model is nested in the above model. If we were to plot the estimate of \(S(t)\), we would see that it is a reflection of F(t) (about y=0 and shifted up by 1). Comparing Nonnested Models The difference between the mean of cell ses In each of the graphs above, a covariate is plotted against cumulative martingale residuals. The estimated hazard ratio of .937 comparing females to males is not significant. In an example from Ries and Smith (1963), the choice of detergent brand (Brand= M or X) is related to three other categorical variables: the softness of the laundry water (Softness= soft, medium, or hard); the temperature of the water (Temperature= high or low); and whether the subject was a previous user of Brand M (Previous= yes or no). run; proc phreg data = whas500(where=(id^=112 and id^=89)); Significant departures from random error would suggest model misspecification. When a subject dies at a particular time point, the step function drops, whereas in between failure times the graph remains flat. Notice that the baseline hazard rate, \(h_0(t)\) is cancelled out, and that the hazard rate does not depend on time \(t\): The hazard rate \(HR\) will thus stay constant over time with fixed covariates. The PHREG Procedure: Examples: PHREG Procedure. fstat: the censoring variable, loss to followup=0, death=1, Without further specification, SAS will assume all times reported are uncensored, true failures. assess var=(age bmi hr) / resample; =2. Indeed the hazard rate right at the beginning is more than 4 times larger than the hazard 200 days later. Suppose it is of interest to test the null hypothesis that cell means ABC121 and ABC212 are equal that is, H0: 121 - 212 = 0. 515-526. However, if the nested models do not have identical fixed effects, then results from ML estimation must be used to construct a LR test. But an equivalent representation of the model is: where Ai and Bj are sets of design variables that are defined as follows using dummy coding: For the medical example above, model 3b for the odds of being cured are: Estimating and Testing Odds Ratios with Dummy Coding. In the code below, we model the effects of hospitalization on the hazard rate.
