Limitations of the incidence density ratio as approximation of the hazard ratio. [PDF]

open access: yesTrials, 2019
Incidence density ratios (IDRs) are frequently used to account for varying follow-up times when comparing the risks of adverse events in two treatment groups. The validity of the IDR as approximation of the hazard ratio (HR) is unknown in the situation of differential average follow up by treatment group and non-constant hazard functions. Thus, the use

The Hazards of Period Specific and Weighted Hazard Ratios

open access: yesStatistics in Biopharmaceutical Research, 2020
How to adequately handle nonproportional hazards (NPH) in clinical trials is an important and timely question, particularly given recent advances in immuno-oncology treatments, in which survival cu...

Right ventricular free-wall longitudinal speckle tracking strain as a prognostic criterion of adverse outcomes in patients with pulmonary hypertension: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2021
The absence of consensus regarding the reference values of right ventricular free wall longitudinal strain (RVFWLS) and its predictive value prompted us to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of publications on the predictive role of this ...

The Hazard Ratio Is Equivalent to an Odds Under the Assumption of Proportional Hazards. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Patient Cent Res Rev
Clinicians routinely interpret statistical findings from medical research to inform patients of treatment benefits. Studies that use the hazard ratio present special challenges. Clinicians should not equate hazard ratios with risk ratios, ie, relative risks.

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.

What’s the Risk: Differentiating Risk Ratios, Odds Ratios, and Hazard Ratios? [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2020
Risk ratios, odds ratios, and hazard ratios are three common, but often misused, statistical measures in clinical research. In this paper, the authors dissect what each of these terms define, and provide examples from the medical literature to illustrate each of these statistical measures.

Baseline Vitamin D as a predictor of mortality among hospitalized patients with acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in an endemically Vitamin D-deficient area in North India

open access: yesIndian Journal of Respiratory Care, 2020
Background: Conflicting data suggest that Vitamin D reduces the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and COPD exacerbations. Scant data are available regarding the Vitamin D status in patients with COPD in India where Vitamin D
