summary.jointNestedPenal {frailtypack}

summary of parameter estimates of a joint nested frailty model

Description

This function returns hazard rations (HR) and its confidence intervals.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'jointNestedPenal'
summary(object, level = 0.95, len = 6, d =
2, lab="hr", ...)

Arguments
