ggsurvplot(): Option to add 'all' patients' Survival Curves Needed

[kassambara]

• Plot survival curves of patients stratified by grouping variables
• Add on the same plot, the survival curves of 'all' patients.

A simple option to do this is needed.

New option added now in ggsurvplot() to add he survival curves of (all) pooled patients onto the main survival plot stratified by grouping variables.

• Load required package and fit survival curves:

# Load required packages
library("survival")
library("survminer")

# Fit survival curves
fit <- surv_fit(Surv(time, status) ~ sex, data = lung)

• Basic survival curves:

# Visualize survival curves
ggsurvplot(fit, data = lung, 
           risk.table = TRUE, pval = TRUE,
           surv.median.line = "hv", palette = "jco")

• Add survival curves of pooled patients:

Use add.all = TRUE option

# Add survival curves of pooled patients (Null model)
# Use add.all = TRUE option
ggsurvplot(fit, data = lung, 
           risk.table = TRUE, pval = TRUE,
           surv.median.line = "hv", palette = "jco", 
           add.all = TRUE)

when i use "add.all=TRUE", got a error message(Error in model.frame.default(formula = surv.object ~ strata.val, data = list( : variable lengths differ (found for 'strata.val')), it works fine without "add.all", any ideas? Thanks,
