Jonathan can attach a

Jonathan Kaplan <[email protected]> asks how to reproduce a power-curve
graph depicted on the Stata website:

Martin Weiss <[email protected]> showed a manual way of obtaining a graph
after -stpower-
(http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2010-05/msg01016.html).  Jonathan
can
also use the unofficial command -stpowplot- to obtain power curves for the
log-rank test more easily.  For example,

  . stpowplot logrank 0.7, yaxis(power) xaxis(hr) over(n)  ///
			   n(100 250 500) hratio(0.1(0.01)0.9)

will produce a graph similar to that displayed on the webpage.  Following
Martin's suggestions, Jonathan can customize the graph to obtain a closer
match:

/*** begin example ****/
local title Power curves for log-rank test
local subtitle (for survival curves of experimental vs. standard treatment)
local note1 Assumptions: alpha = 0.05 (two sided); equal number of subjects 
local note1 `note1' to be assigned to each group; 
local note2  70% of patients in the control group survive to the end of the
study
local xtitle Hypothesized effect size (hazard ratio of experimentals vs.
controls)
stpowplot logrank 0.7, yaxis(power) xaxis(hr) over(n)			///
                         n(100 250 500) hratio(0.1(0.01)0.9)		///
			 title(`title') subtitle(`subtitle')		///
			 note("`note1'" "`note2'") 			///
			 xtitle(`xtitle') yline(0.8, lstyle(refline))	///
			 legend(off) text(.65 .4 "N = 100") 		///
			 text(.65 .6 "N = 250") text(.65 .75 "N = 500")
/*** end example ****/

Type

  . findit stpowplot

to locate and install this command.
