This page shows code for calculating the Pohar-Perme non-parametric estimate of marginal relative survival using the following four user-written Stata commands. stnet strs stpp stns Code comparing the estimates from strs, stns, stpp, and stns is available for two data sets:

The code used in this tutorial, along with links to the data, is available here. This code illustrates how to apply the “Brenner alternative approach” to age-standardise net survival using external (ICSS) weights.

This page illustrates the algorithm used by strs for estimating relative survival using the Ederer II approach.

Estimate conditional (on surviving some time) relative survival using several approaches. We estimate from both life tables and based on a flexible parametric model.

Estimation of relative/net survival using four difference approaches (Ederer I, Ederer II, Hakulinen, Pohar Perme)

A tutorial illustrating how to model excess mortality (relative survival) using Poisson regression.

History of -strs-, including links to previous versions.

In this tutorial, we estimate net survival using both the Ederer II approach and the Pohar Perme approach. We do this using both -stnet- and -strs- (and get the same results).

Short tutorial illustrating how to estimate relative survival using -strs-.

This page describes the Stata `strs` command and related files for estimating and modelling relative and survival.
