1. Using offset(logweight) in coxph is the same as using an "offset logweight;" statement in SAS, and neither is the same as case weights. 2. For a nested case control, which is what you said you have, the "strata" controls who is in what risk set. No trickery with start,stop times is needed. It

Hi: Using package sos: # install.packages('sos') # if necessary library(sos) findFn('conditional logistic regression') the following appear to be reasonable candidates to start investigating: * clogit() in package survival * clogistic() in package Epi * clogistCalc()in package saws

Hi, I am wondering if there is a package for doing conditional logistic regression for nested case-control study as described in "Estimation of absolute risk from nested case-control data" by Langholz and Borgan (1997) where Horvitz-Thompson sampling weight (log of (number in the risk set divid
