msboot.relsurv {mstate} | R Documentation

## Bootstrap function for upgraded multi-state models using relsurv

### Description

A helper nonparametric bootstrapping function for variances in extended multi-state models using relative survival. This implementation is written based on function mstate:::msboot.

### Usage

    msboot.relsurv(
      theta,
      data,
      B = 10,
      id = "id",
      verbose = 0,
      transmat,
      all_times,
      split.transitions,
      rmap,
      time.format,
      boot_orig_msfit,
      ratetable = relsurv::slopop,
      add.times,
      ...
    )

### Arguments

`theta` | A function of data and perhaps other arguments, returning the value of the statistic to be bootstrapped
`data` | An object of class 'msdata', such as output from msprep
`B` | The number of bootstrap replications; the default is B=10
`id` | Character string indicating which column identifies the subjects to be resampled
`verbose` | The level of output; default 0 = no output, 1 = print the replication
`transmat` | The transition matrix of class transMat
`all_times` | All times at which the hazards have to be evaluated
`split.transitions` | An integer vector containing the numbered transitions that should be split. Use same numbering as in the given transition matrix
`rmap` | An optional list to be used if the variables in the dataset are not organized (and named) in the same way as in the ratetable object
`time.format` | Define the time format which is used in the dataset Possible options: c('days', 'years', 'months'). Default is 'days'
`boot_orig_msfit` | Logical, if true, do the bootstrap for the basic msfit model
`ratetable` | The population mortality table. A table of event rates, organized as a ratetable object, see for example relsurv::slopop. Default is slopop
`add.times` | Additional times at which hazards should be evaluated
`...` | Any further arguments to the function theta

### Value

A list of size B containing the results for every bootstrap replication.
