Fwd: T in $DES
Hi all,
I have a question regaring T in $DES.
I have a time-varying covariate that is derived based on an explicit
equation and then use in a differential equation.
I got some funny results in the output table and investigated a bit
further.
I therefore derived T_DAY=T in $DES as below and output it in $TABLE.
Why is T_DAY at TIME=0 equal to the time of the last observation for the
patient? I was expecting it to be Zero (same as Time). Seems to be the same
for all IDs in the dataset.
Below is the output created in $TABLE including the "derived" variable
T_DAY.
Any advice would be appreciated.
