Rat treatment data from Mantel et al.
Three rats were chosen from each of 100 litters, one of which was
treated with a drug, and then all followed for tumor incidence.
Usage
rats
Format
litter:
litter number from 1 to 100
rx:
treatment,(1=drug, 0=control)
time:
time to tumor or last follow-up
status:
event status, 1=tumor and 0=censored
sex:
male or female
Note
Since only 2/150 of the male rats have a tumor, most analyses use
only females (odd numbered litters), e.g. Lee et al.
