Dear List,

I am conducting Kaiser-Meier analyses on folks who died - some of whom
received tranfusions, some did not.  I know the percentage within each group
that died and I would like to obtain a plot that reflects these percentages
rather cummulative survival or hazard plot.  The survival plots from KM,
Life Tables, and Cox regression don't quite give me what I need.  Any ideas?

Also, the other day I asked if SPSS offers anything similar to the
c-statistic that SAS produces.  This is an estimate of the association
between the predicted probabilities and the observed responses.  Again, any
ideas as to SPSS's ability to generate this or the information I would need
to calculate something similar myself?

Thanks, Tony
