Causal interpretation of the hazard ratio in randomized clinical trials. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Trials
Background: Although the hazard ratio has no straightforward causal interpretation, clinical trialists commonly use it as a measure of treatment effect. Methods: We review the definition and examples of causal estimands.

Cardiovascular disease burden from ambient air pollution in Europe reassessed using novel hazard ratio functions. [PDF]

open access: yesEur Heart J, 2019
Aims Ambient air pollution is a major health risk, leading to respiratory and cardiovascular mortality. A recent Global Exposure Mortality Model, based on an unmatched number of cohort studies in many countries, provides new hazard ratio functions ...

Instrumental Variable Estimation of the Causal Hazard Ratio [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2022
AbstractCox's proportional hazards model is one of the most popular statistical models to evaluate associations of exposure with a censored failure time outcome. When confounding factors are not fully observed, the exposure hazard ratio estimated using a Cox model is subject to unmeasured confounding bias.

How Do the Accrual Pattern and Follow-Up Duration Affect the Hazard Ratio Estimate When the Proportional Hazards Assumption Is Violated? [PDF]

open access: yesOncologist, 2019
In randomized clinical trials, the magnitude of the treatment effect is often reported using the hazard ratio (HR) even when the proportional hazards (PH) assumption is not met.

Odds ratio, hazard ratio and relative risk

open access: yesAdvances in Methodology and Statistics, 2016
Odds ratio (OR) is a statistic commonly encountered in professional or scientific medical literature. Most readers perceive it as relative risk (RR), although most of them do not know why that would be true. But since such perception is mostly correct, there is nothing (or almost nothing) wrong with that.

The median hazard ratio: a useful measure of variance and general contextual effects in multilevel survival analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesStat Med, 2017
Multilevel data occurs frequently in many research areas like health services research and epidemiology. A suitable way to analyze such data is through the use of multilevel regression models (MLRM). MLRM incorporate cluster‐specific random effects which

Hazard Ratio in Clinical Trials [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2004
Time-to-event curves analyzed by Cox proportional hazards regression are commonly used to describe the outcome of drug studies. This methodology has the advantage of using all available information, including patients who fail to complete the trial, such as in cancer chemotherapy or human immunodeficiency virus antiviral treatment studies.

smoothHR: an R package for pointwise nonparametric estimation of hazard ratio curves of continuous predictors. [PDF]

open access: yesComput Math Methods Med, 2013
The Cox proportional hazards regression model has become the traditional choice for modeling survival data in medical studies. To introduce flexibility into the Cox model, several smoothing methods may be applied, and approaches based on splines are the ...

Optimal approximate conversions of odds ratios and hazard ratios to risk ratios

open access: yesBiometrics, 2020
AbstractOdds ratios approximate risk ratios when the outcome under consideration is rare but can diverge substantially from risk ratios when the outcome is common. In this paper, we derive optimal analytic conversions of odds ratios and hazard ratios to risk ratios that are minimax for the bias ratio when outcome probabilities are specified to fall in ...
