The survminer R package provides functions for facilitating survival analysis and visualization.
The main functions, in the package, are organized in different categories as follow.
Survival Curves
-
ggsurvplot(): Draws survival curves with the 'number at risk' table, the cumulative number of events table and the cumulative number of censored subjects table.
-
arrange_ggsurvplots(): Arranges multiple ggsurvplots on the same page.
-
ggsurvevents(): Plots the distribution of event's times.
-
surv_summary(): Summary of a survival curve. Compared to the default summary() function, surv_summary() creates a data frame containing a nice summary from survfit results.
-
surv_cutpoint(): Determines the optimal cutpoint for one or multiple continuous variables at once. Provides a value of a cutpoint that correspond to the most significant relation with survival.
-
pairwise_survdiff(): Multiple comparisons of survival curves. Calculate pairwise comparisons between group levels with corrections for multiple testing.
Diagnostics of Cox Model
-
ggcoxzph(): Graphical test of proportional hazards. Displays a graph of the scaled Schoenfeld residuals, along with a smooth curve using ggplot2. Wrapper around plot.cox.zph().
-
ggcoxdiagnostics(): Displays diagnostics graphs presenting goodness of Cox Proportional Hazards Model fit.
-
ggcoxfunctional(): Displays graphs of continuous explanatory variable against martingale residuals of null cox proportional hazards model. It helps to properly choose the functional form of continuous variable in cox model.
Summary of Cox Model
-
ggforest(): Draws forest plot for CoxPH model.
-
ggcoxadjustedcurves(): Plots adjusted survival curves for coxph model.
Competing Risks
- ggcompetingrisks(): Plots cumulative incidence curves for competing risks.

ggsurvplot: Drawing survival curves
Fitting survival curves
Basic plots
Censor shape can be changed as follow:
ggsurvplot(fit, data = lung, censor.shape = "|", censor.size = 4)
Customized survival curves
ggsurvplot( fit, data = lung, size = 1, # change line size palette = c("#E7B800", "#2E9FDF"),# custom color palettes conf.int = TRUE, # Add confidence interval pval = TRUE, # Add p-value risk.table = TRUE, # Add risk table risk.table.col = "strata",# Risk table color by groups legend.labs = c("Male", "Female"), # Change legend labels risk.table.height = 0.25, # Useful to change when you have multiple groups ggtheme = theme_bw() # Change ggplot2 theme )
Note that, additional arguments are available to customize the main title, axis labels, the font style, axis limits, legends and the number at risk table.

Focus on xlim and break.time.by parameters which do not change the calculations of estimates of survival surves. Also note risk.table.y.text.col = TRUE and risk.table.y.text = FALSE that provide bars instead of names in text annotations of the legend of risk table.
ggsurvplot( fit, # survfit object with calculated statistics. data = lung, # data used to fit survival curves. risk.table = TRUE, # show risk table. pval = TRUE, # show p-value of log-rank test. conf.int = TRUE, # show confidence intervals for # point estimates of survival curves. xlim = c(0,500), # present narrower X axis, but not affect # survival estimates. xlab = "Time in days", # customize X axis label. break.time.by = 100, # break X axis in time intervals by 500. ggtheme = theme_light(), # customize plot and risk table with a theme. risk.table.y.text.col = T, # colour risk table text annotations. risk.table.y.text = FALSE # show bars instead of names in text annotations # in legend of risk table )

Helper function to customize plot labels:
customize_labels <- function (p, font.title = NULL, font.subtitle = NULL, font.caption = NULL, font.x = NULL, font.y = NULL, font.xtickslab = NULL, font.ytickslab = NULL) { original.p <- p if(is.ggplot(original.p)) list.plots <- list(original.p) else if(is.list(original.p)) list.plots <- original.p else stop("Can't handle an object of class ", class (original.p)) .set_font <- function(font){ font <- ggpubr ::: .parse_font(font) ggtext :: element_markdown (size = font$size, face = font$face, colour = font$color) } for(i in 1:length(list.plots)){ p <- list.plots [[ i]] if(is.ggplot(p)){ if (!is.null(font.title)) p <- p + theme(plot.title = .set_font(font.title)) if (!is.null(font.subtitle)) p <- p + theme(plot.subtitle = .set_font(font.subtitle)) if (!is.null(font.caption)) p <- p + theme(plot.caption = .set_font(font.caption)) if (!is.null(font.x)) p <- p + theme(axis.title.x = .set_font(font.x)) if (!is.null(font.y)) p <- p + theme(axis.title.y = .set_font(font.y)) if (!is.null(font.xtickslab)) p <- p + theme(axis.text.x = .set_font(font.xtickslab)) if (!is.null(font.ytickslab)) p <- p + theme(axis.text.y = .set_font(font.ytickslab)) list.plots [[ i]] <- p } } if(is.ggplot(original.p)) list.plots [[ 1]] else list.plots }
Customized plot labels:
# Changing Labels # %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% # Labels for Survival Curves (plot) ggsurv$plot <- ggsurv$plot + labs( title = "Survival curves", subtitle = "Based on Kaplan-Meier estimates", caption = "created with survminer" ) # Labels for Risk Table ggsurv$table <- ggsurv$table + labs( title = "Note the risk set sizes", subtitle = "and remember about censoring.", caption = "source code: website.com" ) # Labels for ncensor plot ggsurv$ncensor.plot <- ggsurv$ncensor.plot + labs( title = "Number of censorings", subtitle = "over the time.", caption = "source code: website.com" ) # Changing the font size, style and color # %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% # Applying the same font style to all the components of ggsurv: # survival curves, risk table and censor part ggsurv <- customize_labels( ggsurv, font.title = c(16, "bold", "darkblue"), font.subtitle = c(15, "bold.italic", "purple"), font.caption = c(14, "plain", "orange"), font.x = c(14, "bold.italic", "red"), font.y = c(14, "bold.italic", "darkred"), font.xtickslab = c(12, "plain", "darkgreen") ) ggsurv
