Overview

About

Maintained by Robin DenzFirst published 2022-08-165 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Graphically display the (causal) effect of a continuous variable on a time-to-event outcome using multiple different types of plots based on g-computation. Those functions include, among others, survival area plots, survival contour plots, survival quantile plots and 3D surface plots. Due to the use of g-computation, all plot allow confounder-adjustment naturally. For details, see Robin Denz, Nina Timmesfeld (2023) doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001630.
