Hi, I have a dataset effects of 3 treatments against ctrl on cell-lines collected from 4 donors.
```
Treatment donor value log_val
Ctrl D1 xx
T1 D2 xx
T2 D3 xx
T4 D4 xx
```
I would like to compare the effects of treatments against ctrl and also with each other using a mixed model. I use the following mixed model in SAS:
```
PROC MIXED data=data;
CLASS DONOR TREATMENT;
MODEL log_val= TREATMENT/ DDFM=SATTERTH;
random DONOR ;
LSMEANS TREATMENT / PDIFF CL E;
estimate 'T/R' TREATMENT -1 1 / cl ;
run;
```
When I include all the treatments in one model I am getting higher standard errors than the case if I include only two treatments which I want to compare for different combinations of treatments. Which approach should I choose? Including all the treatments as once or including two treatments and repeating for different combinations?
adjust your model
1. add visit information if the dataset has it, like week information
2. include week in part of repeated statement
3.treat week, treatment and treatment-week interaction, baseline of val... as fixed effects
4. use cs, ar or un matrix to converge
