Inference for cumulative incidence functions with informatively coarsened discrete event‐time data [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2008
AbstractWe consider the problem of comparing cumulative incidence functions of non‐mortality events in the presence of informative coarsening and the competing risk of death. We extend frequentist‐based hypothesis tests previously developed for non‐informative coarsening and propose a novel Bayesian method based on comparing a posterior parameter ...

A PRSZT Registry Analysis of Prognostic Factors Influencing Survival and Relapse Rates After Second Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A second allogeneic (allo‐)hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT2) is a potential curative option for pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) following relapse after first allogeneic transplantation (HSCT1), but its efficacy is limited by high relapse rates and transplant‐related toxicity in highly pretreated ...

Nomograms for Estimating Cause-Specific Death Rates of Patients With Inflammatory Breast Cancer: A Competing-Risks Analysis

open access: yesTechnology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2021
Purpose: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare, aggressive and special subtype of primary breast cancer. We aimed to establish competing-risks nomograms to predict the IBC-specific death (BCSD) and other-cause-specific death (OCSD) of IBC patients ...
