Abstract: In this article, we introduce a new Stata command to estimate the net survival function and the net cumulative hazard. The command includes graphic facilities. It was designed to have a similar syntax to sts, the Stata command dedicated to estimate survival and related functions. We present two examples to illustrate the use of this new command.
