Hmm, thanks and sorry to bother u again.. But my predicted 10 year mortality risks are really high (also compared to the number of events) and does not vary much in between participants and I can't seem to find out why.. Should I calculate the baseline survival probability for ALL variables available in the data set? Now Ive calculated the baseline survival probability with the predictors which are in the end model.   Thanks!     ... View more

Ohh thanks for your response. I didnt specify the reference levels for my categorical variables and thats why I didnt get the survival probability.   I still have a small question about filling in the equation for the 10-year risk prediction for mortality. Now I've calculated the survival probability with the baseline statement where the mean for continuous variables and the reference level for categorical variables was used. If I want to calculate the 10 year risk for mortality for a person of age 70 and the mean age used to calculate the baseline survival probability was 60, should i use the difference in age between the mean used for baseline survival calculations and the actual age (in this case age = 10? Or should i just fill in the actual age of this person?   Thanks again 🙂 ... View more
