Multi-state model analysis results file

Description

Example csv file for the structure of the results input file for the multi-state setting illness-death model of 3 states (EBMT example).

Ntransitions

This variable will have the same number for each row, that is, the number of transitions (e.g 3)

atlist

The value of this variable specify the name of the covariate pattern for which the prediciton is made in the specific row.

timevar

It is the time variable. The value of this variable specify the time point for which the prediciton is made for a certain covariate pattern.

P(_diff/_ratio)_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

Transition Probabilities for each state

Haz(_diff/_ratio)_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"Haz" stands for the hazard or transition rate foreach transition.

Los(_diff/_ratio)_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"Los" stands for Length of stay".

Visit(_diff/_ratio)_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"Visit" stands for the "Probability of ever being" in each state.

User(_diff/_ratio)_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"User" stands for the "User specified function".

Next_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"Next" stands for the "Probability that a particular state r is the next state after the current state s".

Number_X_to_X(_uci/_lci)

"Number" stands for the expected number of visits to a state.

First_X(_uci/_lci)

"First" stands for the expected "First passage time" into a particular state.

Soj_X(_uci/_lci)

"Soj" stands for the "mean sojourn time" into a particular state.

uci stands for "Upper confidence interval". The upper confidence interval of the specified measure is stored in variables with this ending.

lci stands for "Lower confidence interval". The lower confidence interval of the specified measure is stored in variables with this ending.

diff stands for "Difference". The difference in the specified measure between the present covariate pattern and the covariate pattern of reference is stored in this variable.

ratio stands for "Ratio". The ratio of the specified measure between the present covariate pattern and the covariate pattern of reference is stored in this variable.

X_to_X: The first asterisk specifies the starting state at time s and the second asterisk specifies the landing state at time t. If a measure has only one asterisk then it is a measure that refers to a specific state that does not entail a sense of transition between states.
