Combining estimates of interest in prognostic modelling studies after multiple imputation: current practice and guidelines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Multiple imputation (MI) provides an effective approach to handle missing covariate data within prognostic modelling studies, as it can properly account for the missing data uncertainty. The multiply imputed datasets are each analysed using

Outcome-sensitive multiple imputation: a simulation study

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2017
Background Multiple imputation is frequently used to deal with missing data in healthcare research. Although it is known that the outcome should be included in the imputation model when imputing missing covariate values, it is not known whether it should

A Markov Chain Monte Carlo Multiple Imputation Procedure for Dealing with Item Nonresponse in the German SAVE Survey [PDF]

open access: yes
Important empirical information on household behavior is obtained from surveys. However, various interdependent factors that can only be controlled to a limited extent lead to unit and item nonresponse, and missing data on certain items is a frequent ...

Chained equations and more in multiple imputation in Stata 12 [PDF]

open access: yes
I present the new Stata 12 command, mi impute chained, to perform multivariate imputation using chained equations (ICE), also known as sequential regression imputation. ICE is a flexible imputation technique for imputing various types of data.

Handling missing data in research

open access: yesPerspectives in Clinical Research
Missing data are an inevitable part of research and lead to a decrease in the size of the analyzable population, and biased and imprecise estimates. In this article, we discuss the types of missing data, methods to handle missing data and suggest ways in
