Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC) Data Well-known data set from Appendix D of Fleming and Harrington (1991) taken from Terry Therneau's website. We have copied the data set and here is SAS code to read in the data and run a standard Cox regression. Note that in the SAS code we eliminate cases past 312 and recode status=1 (liver transplant) to be status=0 (alive, i.e., censored). There are only 276 complete cases when running a Cox regression with all covariates. From Terry Therneau's website, the variables in the data set are id = case number futime = number of days between registration and the earlier of death, transplantion, or study analysis time in July, 1986 status = 0=alive, 1=liver transplant, 2=dead drug = 1= D-penicillamine, 2=placebo age = age in days sex = 0=male, 1=female ascites = presence of ascites: 0=no 1=yes hepato = presence of hepatomegaly 0=no 1=yes spiders = presence of spiders 0=no 1=yes edema = presence of edema 0=no edema and no diuretic therapy for edema; .5 = edema present without diuretics, or edema resolved by diuretics; 1 = edema despite diuretic therapy bili = serum bilirubin in mg/dl chol = serum cholesterol in mg/dl albumin = albumin in gm/dl copper = urine copper in ug/day alk_phos = alkaline phosphatase in U/liter sgot = SGOT in U/ml trig = triglicerides in mg/dl platelet = platelets per cubic ml/1000 protime = prothrombin time in seconds stage = histologic stage of disease
