A New Hjorth Distribution in Its Discrete Version
MathematicsThe Hjorth distribution is more flexible in modeling various hazard rate shapes, including increasing, decreasing, and bathtub shapes. This makes it highly useful in reliability analysis and survival studies, where different failure rate behaviors must ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We aimed to construct and evaluate the first laboratory‐based frailty index (FI‐Lab) for predicting adverse outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to compare its predictive ability to that of an existing clinical FI. Methods We used data from a single‐center prospective cohort of adult patients with SLE whose baseline visit ...

Latent diffusion models for survival analysis [PDF]
, 2010 We consider Bayesian hierarchical models for survival analysis, where the survival times are modeled through an underlying diffusion process which determines the hazard rate.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a cornerstone therapy in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but the weight‐based dosing does not account for clinical factors that can introduce individual variability in drug metabolism and clearance. We leveraged longitudinal data from a prospective SLE cohort to identify clinical factors that predict ...

PLoS Computational Biology, 2020 Individuals differ widely in their contribution to the spread of infection within and across populations. Three key epidemiological host traits affect infectious disease spread: susceptibility (propensity to acquire infection), infectivity (propensity to

Global Bahadur representation for nonparametric censored regression quantiles and its applications [PDF]
This paper is concerned with the nonparametric estimation of regression quantiles where the response variable is randomly censored. Using results on the strong uniform convergence of U-processes, we derive a global Bahadur representation for the weighted

Sensitivity models for missing covariates in the analysis of survival data from multiple surveys [PDF]
, 2007 Using individual patient data from five independent surveys, we evaluate regional variations in survival in cerebral palsy. The influence of four important variables measuring disability, which are only partially observed for many cases, are analysed ...

Clinical, Histologic, and Serological Predictors of Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Kidney survival is the ultimate goal in lupus nephritis (LN) management, but long‐term predictors remain inadequately studied, requiring long‐term follow‐up. This study aimed to identify baseline and early longitudinal predictors of kidney survival in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership LN longitudinal cohort.

Distinct Systemic Sclerosis Phenotypes Related to Ethnicity: An Opportunity to Personalize Care?
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The objective is to describe and compare demographic, clinical, and serological characteristics of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) according to ethnic background. Methods Participants enrolled in the Canadian Scleroderma Research Group cohort who self‐identified to a single ethnicity group were included.
