timedat | R Documentation |
Simulated dataset. Time varying CD4 measurements of 386 HIV positive individuals. Time of first active tuberculosis, time of death and individual end time of the patients are included in dataset basdat
.
data(timedat)
A data frame with 6291 observations on the following 3 variables.
id
patient ID.
fuptime
follow-up time (days since HIV seroconversion).
cd4count
CD4 count measured at fuptime.
These simulated data are used together with data in basdat
in a detailed causal modelling example using inverse probability weighting (IPW). See ipwtm
for the example. Data were simulated using the algorithm described in Van der Wal e.a. (2009).
