Hi guys, I would like to calculate p trends for my main exposures: cig, pipe and nass. They were originally numeric variables. I tried to use the numeric version in the Cox model but the result is either blank or "0". Then I tried to categorize these exposures into 4 levels, and I used the code below to calculate the trend, but SAS gave me this feedback. The instruction I used said there is a "ptrend" option in the Phreg function but when I entered it didn't turn blue as a valid option. Did anyone know how to fix the problem or how to calculate the p trend in the multivariable Cox model? Thank you.

 73         proc phreg data=liverfp;
 74         class cigd(ref='0') nassd(ref='0') piped(ref='0') everopi(ref='0')
 75                Aspirin(ref='2') HCVAb(ref='0')
 76          HBSAg(ref='0')  DLiver(ref='2') Diab(ref='2') ALC(ref='2')
 77           / param=ref;
 78         model length*caseco(0,2)= cigd piped nassd everopi HBSAg HCVAb
 79               DLiver Aspirin Diab Alc
