Smooth semi-nonparametric (SNP) estimation of the cumulative incidence function. [PDF]

open access: yesStat Med, 2017
This paper presents a novel approach to estimation of the cumulative incidence function in the presence of competing risks. The underlying statistical model is specified via a mixture factorization of the joint distribution of the event type and the time to the event.

Semiparametric regression on cumulative incidence function with interval-censored competing risks data. [PDF]

open access: yesStat Med, 2017
Many biomedical and clinical studies with time‐to‐event outcomes involve competing risks data. These data are frequently subject to interval censoring. This means that the failure time is not precisely observed but is only known to lie between two observation times such as clinical visits in a cohort study.

Nonparametric Estimation of Cumulative Incidence Functions of Recurrent Events

open access: yesStatistica, 2023
The present paper discusses modeling and analysis of recurrent event data with competing risks. We propose non parametric estimation of cumulative incidence functions of recurrent event competing risks model.

Cumulative Incidence Function in Studies on the Duration of the Unemployment Exit Process [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Oeconomica Stetinensia, 2017
When we analyse the employment seeking process, an event that ends the observation of a given individual is their employment. The remaining observations are considered to be censored: the observations concluded before the end of the study or the cases of

Cancer- and noncancer-specific cumulative incidence of death after exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls and dioxins: A competing risk analysis among Yusho patients

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2021
Background: In competing risks settings, the cause-specific cumulative incidence function is of great interest since it quantifies cumulative risk in the presence of other causes.

Modeling cumulative incidence function for competing risks data [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Clinical Pharmacology, 2008
A frequent occurrence in medical research is that a patient is subject to different causes of failure, where each cause is known as a competing risk. The cumulative incidence curve is a proper summary curve, showing the cumulative failure rates over time due to a particular cause. A common question in medical research is to assess the covariate effects

Direct parametric inference for the cumulative incidence function

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C: Applied Statistics, 2006
SummaryIn survival data that are collected from phase III clinical trials on breast cancer, a patient may experience more than one event, including recurrence of the original cancer, new primary cancer and death. Radiation oncologists are often interested in comparing patterns of local or regional recurrences alone as first events to identify a ...

Estimation of the cumulative incidence function under multiple dependent and independent censoring mechanisms. [PDF]

open access: yesLifetime Data Anal, 2018
Competing risks occur in a time-to-event analysis in which a patient can experience one of several types of events. Traditional methods for handling competing risks data presuppose one censoring process, which is assumed to be independent. In a controlled clinical trial, censoring can occur for several reasons: some independent, others dependent.

Assessing cumulative incidence functions under the semiparametric additive risk model [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2009
AbstractIn analyzing competing risks data, a quantity of considerable interest is the cumulative incidence function. Often, the effect of covariates on the cumulative incidence function is modeled via the proportional hazards model for the cause‐specific hazard function.

Comparison of competing risks models based on cumulative incidence function in analyzing time to cardiovascular diseases [PDF]

open access: yesARYA Atherosclerosis, 2014
BACKGROUND: Competing risks arise when the subject is exposed to more than one cause of failure. Data consists of the time that the subject failed and an indicator of which risk caused the subject to fail.
