Regression trees and ensembles for cumulative incidence functions [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biostatistics, 2022
Abstract The use of cumulative incidence functions for characterizing the risk of one type of event in the presence of others has become increasingly popular over the past two decades. The problems of modeling, estimation and inference have been treated using parametric, nonparametric and semi-parametric methods ...

Competing risks analysis of patients with Brain Stroke: a comparison of two different approaches

open access: yesJournal of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, 2022
Objectives: Cumulative incidence function (CIF) measures the survival time of a particular hazard in the presence of others, while cause-specific (CS) one ignores the competing risks.

Bone Metastasis From Gastric Adenocarcinoma—What Are the Risk Factors and Associated Survival? A Large Comprehensive Population-Based Cohort Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
BackgroundWhile bone metastasis is not common in gastric adenocarcinoma (GaC), it can have important impacts on prognosis. This large cohort study aimed at exploring factors associated with bone metastasis in GaC and investigating the time-dependent ...

A competing risk analysis of colorectal cancer recurrence after curative surgery

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2022
Background This study examines the effect of prognostic patient and disease characteristics on colorectal cancer (CRC) recurrence after curative resection. We used competing risk analysis with death as a competing risk. This method provides the clinician

Parametric regression on cumulative incidence function [PDF]

open access: yesBiostatistics, 2006
We propose parametric regression analysis of cumulative incidence function with competing risks data. A simple form of Gompertz distribution is used for the improper baseline subdistribution of the event of interest. Maximum likelihood inferences on regression parameters and associated cumulative incidence function are developed for parametric models ...

Revisiting the cumulative incidence function with competing risks data

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series C: Applied Statistics, 2023
AbstractWe consider estimation of the cumulative incidence function (CIF) in the competing risks Cox model. We study three methods. Methods 1 and 2 are existing methods while method 3 is a newly proposed method. Method 3 is constructed so that the sum of the CIF’s across all event types at the last observed event time is guaranteed, assuming no ties ...

Comparing center-specific cumulative incidence functions [PDF]

open access: yesLifetime Data Analysis, 2015
The competing risks data structure arises frequently in clinical and epidemiologic studies. In such settings, the cumulative incidence function is often used to describe the ultimate occurrence of a particular cause of interest. If the objective of the analysis is to compare subgroups of patients with respect to cumulative incidence, imbalance with ...

Estimation of Cumulative Incidence Function in the Presence of Middle Censoring Using Improper Gompertz Distribution

open access: yesStatistica, 2021
In this paper we deal with the modelling of cumulative incidence function using improper Gompertz distribution based on middle censored competing risks survival data. Together with the unknown parameters, cumulative incidence function also estimated.
