The advent of the AXISTABLE statement with SAS 9.4, has made it considerably easier to create graphs that include statistics aligned with x-axis values (Survival Plot) or with the y-axis (Forest Plot). This statement was specifically designed to address such needs, and includes the options needed to control the text attributes of

A Volcano Plot is a type of scatter-plot that is used to quickly identify changes in large data sets composed of replicate data. In the clinical domain, a Volcano Plot is used to view Risk difference (RD) of AE occurrence (%) between drug and control by preferred term. One example of

Let us continue our review of the Clinical Graphs included in the CTSPedia repository. Today, I noticed this Heatmap of Benefits and Risks over Time for Subjects in a study by Treatment, submitted by Max Cherny using "R" code. I thought it would be a good exercise to see how to build this

Last week I was at PharmaSUG 2016, where I presented a 1/2 day seminar on creating Clinical Graphs using SAS. I was gratified to have a enthusiastic audience of about 28 attendees and we had a great interactive session. I also presented a paper on Clinical Graphs Using SAS. More

CTSPedia is a valuable resource for clinical research "... initiated to form an information resource created by researchers for researchers in clinical and translational science to share valuable knowledge amongst local researchers". This site includes a section on statistical graphs where you can find valuable information and a library of standardized

A few weeks ago I posted an article describing how to display simple Network Diagrams with Curved Links using SGPLOT procedure. The key requirement is that the node positions have to be computed by user. Often, for simple diagrams, nodes can be positioned using a simple layered layout. Separately, I also
