Create a ggplot2 survival curve with censored table

Question

I am trying to create a Kaplan-Meier plot with 95% confidence bands plus having the censored data in a table beneath it. I can create the plot, but not the table. I get the erro

Answer 1

Here's a start (code below)

I guess you can create the table need and replace it by the random.table

# install.packages("ggplot2", dependencies = TRUE)
# install.packages("RGraphics", dependencies = TRUE)
# install.packages("gridExtra", dependencies = TRUE)
# install.packages("survival", dependencies = TRUE)

require(ggplot2)
library(RGraphics)
library(gridExtra)
library(survival)

# Plot
   data(lung) 
   sf.sex <- survfit(Surv(time, status) ~ sex, data = lung) 
   pl.sex <- ggsurv(sf.sex) +
   geom_ribbon(aes(ymin=low,ymax=up,fill=group),alpha=0.3) +
   guides(fill=guide_legend("sex"))

# Table
random.table <- data.frame("CL 95"=rnorm(5),n=runif(5,1,3))
pl.table <- tableGrob(random.table)

# Arrange the plots on the same page
grid.arrange(pl.sex, pl.table, ncol=1)

Answer 2

I solved the problem by using the Rcmdrplugin KMggplot2 The code is generated by the plugin after selecting the data and variables.

 library(survival, pos=18)
 data(lung, package="survival")
 lung <- within(lung, {
 sex <- factor(sex, labels=c('male','female'))
 })
 ggthemes_data <- ggthemes::ggthemes_data
 require("ggplot2")
 .df <- na.omit(data.frame(x = lung$time, y = lung$status, z = lung$sex))
 .df <- .df[do.call(order, .df[, c("z", "x"), drop = FALSE]), , drop = FALSE]
 .fit <- survival::survfit(survival::Surv(time = x, event = y, type = "right")      ~ z, 
   .df)
 .pval <- plyr::ddply(.df, plyr::.(),
  function(x) {
  data.frame(
  x = 0, y = 0, df = 1,
  chisq = survival::survdiff(
  survival::Surv(time = x, event = y, type = "right") ~ z, x
  )$chisq
 )})
 .pval$label <- paste0(
 "paste(italic(p), \" = ",
  signif(1 - pchisq(.pval$chisq, .pval$df), 3),
  "\")"
 )
 .fit <- data.frame(x = .fit$time, y = .fit$surv, nrisk = .fit$n.risk, nevent      = 
 .fit$n.event, ncensor= .fit$n.censor, upper = .fit$upper, lower = .fit$lower)
 .df <- .df[!duplicated(.df[,c("x", "z")]), ]
 .df <- .fit <- data.frame(.fit, .df[, c("z"), drop = FALSE])
 .med <- plyr::ddply(.fit, plyr::.(z), function(x) {
 data.frame(
 median = min(subset(x, y < (0.5 + .Machine$double.eps^0.5))$x)
 )})
 .df <- .fit <- rbind(unique(data.frame(x = 0, y = 1, nrisk = NA, nevent = NA, 
 ncensor = NA, upper = 1, lower = 1, .df[, c("z"), drop = FALSE])), .fit)
.cens <- subset(.fit, ncensor == 1)
.tmp1 <- data.frame(as.table(by(.df, .df[, c("z"), drop = FALSE], function(d) 
  max(d$nrisk, na.rm = TRUE))))
 .tmp1$x <- 0
 .nrisk <- .tmp1
 for (i in 1:9) {.df <- subset(.fit, x < 100 * i); .tmp2 <- 
 data.frame(as.table(by(.df, .df[, c("z"), drop = FALSE], function(d) if 
 (all(is.na(d$nrisk))) NA else min(d$nrisk - d$nevent - d$ncensor, na.rm =      TRUE)))); 
 .tmp2$x <- 100 * i; .tmp2$Freq[is.na(.tmp2$Freq)] <-     .tmp1$Freq[is.na(.tmp2$Freq)]; 
 .tmp1 <- .tmp2; .nrisk <- rbind(.nrisk, .tmp2)}
