hazard_ratio: Builds a function used to calculate hazard ratios.

In stulacy/epitab: Flexible Contingency Tables for Epidemiology

Description

Builds a function to fit a Cox model to the outcome survival object and returns the hazard ratios for each covariate level.

Usage

hazard_ratio(outcome, adjusted = FALSE, relevel_baseline = FALSE,
  digits = 2, ci = TRUE)

Arguments

outcome	The dependent variable, specifies a Surv object as a string. For example, hazard_ratio("Surv(time, status)").
adjusted	Whether to adjust for the other covariates, specified by independents argument to contingency_table.
relevel_baseline	Whether to use the largest level as the baseline.
digits	The number of digits to display.
ci	Whether to include a confidence interval in parentheses after the estimate.

Details

See documentation for contingency_table and vignette for usage.
