proc mianalyze error

Crystal_F — Fri, 02 Nov 2018 17:57:11 GMT

Hi everyone,

I've been stuck on a problem for a while and hope that someone could help me out here. Any suggestion will be highly appreciated!

I'm trying to run the cox model in a survey dataset with missing value on two categorical variables, i.e. income and education. The codes ran well until the final step when i tried to get parameter estimates from proc mianalyze. I received an error message:

ERROR: Variable black_model is not in the PARMS= data set.

The cox model has both continuous and categorical variables. And I only used a selected set of variables to impute income and education.

proc mi data=final.model1and2_clean seed=875 nimpute=5 out=temp.outfcs ;

When there are CLASS variables in the model, the ODS table ParameterEstimates in PROC SURVEYPHREG does not match any of the available CLASSVAR= formats that PROC MIANALYZE requires. However, with minimal Data Step coding, the data set can be converted to a format that PROC MIANAYZE can readily use.

Try this example:

data mortality;

input ID VARSTRATA VARPSU SWEIGHT AGE VITALSTATUS POvARIND GENDER;

x=rannor(123);

The created data does not match any of the available CLASSVAR= formats. But the variable PARAMETER does contain all the information that is needed to reformat it such that it will match the format of CLASSVAR=FULL. In order for PROC MIANALYZE to use this table it is necessary to modify the PARAMETER variable such that its value in each row is a valid SAS name. The following DATA step uses the SCAN function to pick out the first level (second word) in the PARAMETER variable. Since there are multiple CLASS variables, it is necessary to check both the parameter names and levels. In order to avoid any issues with case-sensitivity, the UPCASE function is employed. The last ELSE statement in the series is for the continuous variable. You will need to have as many IF/THEN ELSEs as you have CLASS variables.

data parms_class;

set parms;

if upcase(scan(parameter,1))='POVARIND' then do;

effect='POVARIND';

povarind=scan(parameter,2,' ');

end;

else if upcase(scan(parameter,1))='GENDER' then do;

effect='GENDER';

gender=scan(parameter,2,' ');

end;

else effect=parameter;

run;

Finally PROC MIANALYZE is run using the CLASSVAR=FULL sub-option.

proc mianalyze parms(classvar=full)=parms_class;

class povarind gender;

modeleffects povarind gender x;

run;

If you also want HR then you would have to have an additional step since PROC SURVEYPHREG does not include standard errors for the hazard ratios.

proc mianalyze parms(classvar=full)=parms_class;

class povarind gender;

modeleffects povarind gender x;

ods output ParameterEstimates=comb_parms;

run;

data comb_parms;

set comb_parms;

hr=exp(estimate);

lower_hr=exp(lclmean);

upper_hr=exp(uclmean);

run;

proc print data=comb_parms;

title 'Hazard Ratio Estimates';

var Parm Povarind Gender HR lower_hr upper_hr;

run;
