Dynamic Prediction of Competing Risk Events using Landmark Sub-distribution Hazard Model with Multiple Longitudinal Biomarker [PDF]
The cause-specific cumulative incidence function (CIF) quantifies the subject-specific disease risk with competing risk outcome. With longitudinally collected biomarker data, it is of interest to dynamically update the predicted CIF by incorporating the most recent biomarker as well as the cumulating longitudinal history.

Renal Parenchymal Area and Kidney Collagen Content [PDF]
The extent of renal scarring in chronic kidney disease (CKD) can only be ascertained by highly invasive, painful and sometimes risky tissue biopsy. Interestingly, CKD-related abnormalities in kidney size can often be visualized using ultrasound. Nevertheless, not only does the ellipsoid formula used today underestimate true renal size but also the ...
