nhanes_survival.Rd

A dataset containing a repeated blood pressure measurement along with some other variables for participants in the Third National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES III), merged with data from the US National Death Index by Ruth H. Keogh and Jonathan Bartlett. For the illustration purposes in this package, we have left out observations where smoking status is missing.
