pairwise_survdiff: Multiple Comparisons of Survival Curves

In survminer: Drawing Survival Curves using 'ggplot2'

Multiple Comparisons of Survival Curves

Description

Calculate pairwise comparisons between group levels with corrections for multiple testing.

Usage

pairwise_survdiff(formula, data, p.adjust.method = "BH", na.action, rho = 0)

Arguments

formula	a formula expression as for other survival models, of the form Surv(time, status) ~ predictors.
data	a data frame in which to interpret the variables occurring in the formula.
p.adjust.method	method for adjusting p values (see p.adjust). Allowed values include "holm", "hochberg", "hommel", "bonferroni", "BH", "BY", "fdr", "none". If you don't want to adjust the p value (not recommended), use p.adjust.method = "none".
na.action	a missing-data filter function. Default is options()$na.action.
rho	a scalar parameter that controls the type of test. Allowed values include 0 (for Log-Rank test) and 1 (for peto & peto test).

Value

Returns an object of class "pairwise.htest", which is a list containing the p values.
