The headlines: predictms now supports the Cox model as a transition model, estimated using merlin or stmerlin Predictions from a multi-state Cox model are implemented using a simulation approach Supported predictions from a multi-state Cox model include transition probabilities, probability, and length of stay, los Let’s take a look at what we can now do with multistate and in particular, the predictms command. We’ll […]

In this post we’ll take a look at how to simulate survival data with a continuous, time-varying covariate. The aim is to simulate from a data-generating mechanism appropriate for evaluating a joint longitudinal-survival model. We’ll use the survsim command to simulate the survival times, and the merlin command to fit the corresponding true model. Let’s assume a proportional hazards […]
