Multiple comparisons

The only facility for multiple comparisons in R that I'm aware of is in
package "ctest": pairwise.t.test, pairwise.wilcox.test and some more like
this (have a look at their help texts). They use the function p.adjust() (in
the base package), which uses the Hochberg adjustment by default.

I've used p.adjust() to adjust p values from multiple survival comparisons
"by hand", for which problem there seems to be no standard method. In your
case, there probably is (I do not know), so this approach would be
suboptimal. But it still might work.

Hope this helps some
