Consider the following plot that shows separate regression lines ~ age for each subject in the Pothoff-Roy Orthodont data,
with separate panels by Sex:

library(nlme)
#plot(Orthodont)
xyplot(distance ~ age|Sex, data=Orthodont, type='r', groups=Subject, col=gray(.50),
   main="Individual linear regressions ~ age")

I'd like to also show in each panel the pooled OLS regression line for each Sex in the corresponding panel,
generated by the following model:

Ortho.OLS <- lm(distance ~ age * Sex, data=Orthodont)

Sex is a factor, with Male=0, so the coefficients are:
> coef(Ortho.OLS)
 (Intercept)           age     SexFemale age:SexFemale
  16.3406250     0.7843750     1.0321023    -0.3048295

I anticipate wanting to fit other models to these data, and also displaying the model-predicted regression lines in the same or similar plot, e.g., for a simple linear mixed model:

Ortho.MLM <- lme(distance ~ age * Sex, data=Orthodont,
       random = ~ 1 + age | Subject,
       correlation = corAR1 (form = ~ 1 | Subject))

TIA,
-Michael
