ggcompetingrisks: Cumulative Incidence Curves for Competing Risks

In survminer: Drawing Survival Curves using 'ggplot2'

Cumulative Incidence Curves for Competing Risks

Description

This function plots Cumulative Incidence Curves. For cuminc objects it's a ggplot2 version of plot.cuminc. For survfitms objects a different geometry is used, as suggested by @teigentler.

Usage

ggcompetingrisks(
  fit,
  gnames = NULL,
  gsep = " ",
  multiple_panels = TRUE,
  ggtheme = theme_survminer(),
  coef = 1.96,
  conf.int = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

fit	an object of a class cmprsk::cuminc - created with cmprsk::cuminc function or survfitms created with survfit function.
gnames	a vector with group names. If not supplied then will be extracted from fit object (cuminc only).
gsep	a separator that extracts group names and event names from gnames object (cuminc only).
multiple_panels	if TRUE then groups will be plotted in different panels (cuminc only).
ggtheme	function, ggplot2 theme name. Default value is theme_survminer. Allowed values include ggplot2 official themes: see theme.
coef	see conf.int, scaling actor for the ribbon. The default value is 1.96.
conf.int	if TRUE then additional layer (geom_ribbon) is added around the point estimate. The ribon is plotted with boundries +- coef*standard deviation.
...	further arguments passed to the function ggpar for customizing the plot.

Value

Returns an object of class gg.
