| Subject: | Re: Hazard Ratios for Survival Analysis |
|
I calculated the survival percent by dividing the the number that survived
to each year by the total. The total number of subjects for group 1 was 51
and 94 for group 2. (from below 10/51 =19.6% which is the total survived to
year4).
I then projected the survival to year 5, 6, and 7 based on the change in
survival from 1,2,3,and 4 years.
I am new to survival analysis, but I was guess that 10 or 51 were censored
in group 1, and 48 of 94 were censored in group 2.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
