Abstract
The mslt command calculates the functions of a multistate life table and plots a graph of conditional and unconditional life expectancies by time. The command provides linear and exponential solutions to estimate the number of individuals, transitions, probabilities, person-years, and years of life in a given cohort and state of occupancy. The input data are time-specific transition rates (or survivorship proportions) between nonabsorbing and at most one absorbing state. In addition to the mean age at transfer between states, mslt calculates the following summary measures: the mean age, the probability of dying, the average duration, and the proportion of life spent in a specific state.
