  • Plot recurrent event survival model(PWP-TT) with Time-Dependent effects

    Hi everyone, i'm working on a dataset with counting process structure. I have something like this:
    Id Status Event tstart tstop sus
    1 1 1 0 16377 cocaine
    1 0 2 18019 18213 alcohol
    2 0 1 0 18169 alcohol
    3 1 1 0 16037 cocaine paste
    3 1 2 16049 16129 cocaine paste
    3 0 3 16212 16275 cocaine paste
    4 0 1 0 16617 cocaine
    5 1 1 0 16750 marijuana
    5 0 2 17123 17525 marijuana
    Notice that the event is hospital readmission, so i thought a PWP-TT was a good choice. I tested de PH assumption using this code:
    Code:
    stset tstop, fail(status) exit(time .) id(id) enter(tstart)
    stpm2 sus, df(5) scale(hazard)
    predict su1, at(sus 1) hazard
    predict su2, at(sus 2) hazard
    predict su3, at(sus 3) hazard
    predict su4, at(sus 4) hazard
    predict su5, at(sus 5) hazard
    stphplot, by(sus)
    stcox i.sus
    stphtest, rank detail
    Code:
    stphtest, rank detail
    
          Test of proportional-hazards assumption
    
          Time:  Rank(t)

    The results suggest that substance has a time-dependent effect, so i tried this:
    Code:
    stcox sus, tvc(sus) strata(event)
    Code:
    Stratified Cox regr. -- Breslow method for ties
    
    No. of subjects =       79,710                  Number of obs    =     103,775
    No. of failures =       24,066
    Time at risk    =   1338295692
                                                    LR chi2(2)       =     2273.74
    Log likelihood  =   -239219.92                  Prob > chi2      =      0.0000

                                                               Stratified by event
    Note: Variables in tvc equation interacted with _t.
    The question is if its possible to plot the baseline hazard for the strata, taking into account the TD effects?

    i found solutions for td effects like
    Code:
    scurve_tvc
    but i dont know how to plot strata and td effects jointly, it is possible? it makes sense?


    Thank you for your help
