Survival Analysis, Kaplan-Meier Curves, and Cox Regression: Basic Concepts [PDF]
Survival analysis is used to analyze data from patients who are followed for different periods of time and in whom the outcome of interest, a dichotomous event, may or may not have occurred at the time the study is halted; data from all patients are used

Reconstructing patient level survival data from published Kaplan-Meier curves [PDF]
Introduction: Individual-level patient data (IPD) are helpful for designing clinical trials, conducting meta-analyses, or methodology research. However, such patient level data are not readily available.

IPDfromKM: reconstruct individual patient data from published Kaplan-Meier survival curves [PDF]
Background When applying secondary analysis on published survival data, it is critical to obtain each patient’s raw data, because the individual patient data (IPD) approach has been considered as the gold standard of data analysis.

KMSubtraction: reconstruction of unreported subgroup survival data utilizing published Kaplan-Meier survival curves [PDF]
Background Data from certain subgroups of clinical interest may not be presented in primary manuscripts or conference abstract presentations. In an effort to enable secondary data analyses, we propose a workflow to retrieve unreported subgroup survival ...

Kaplan-Meier Type Survival Curves for COVID-19: A Health Data Based Decision-Making Tool [PDF]
Countries are recording health information on the global spread of COVID-19 using different methods, sometimes changing the rules after a few days. All of them are publishing the number of new individuals infected, recovered and dead individuals, along ...

Hidden Imputations and the Kaplan-Meier Estimator. [PDF]
AbstractThe Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimator of the survival function imputes event times for right-censored and left-truncated observations, but these imputations are hidden and therefore sometimes unrecognized by applied health scientists. Using a simple example data set and the redistribution algorithm, we illustrate how imputations are made by the KM ...

KAPLAN-MEIER AND NELSON-AALEN ESTIMATORS FOR CREDIT SCORING
Financial institutions use credit scoring analysis to predict the probability that a customer will default. In this paper, we determine the probability of default using nonparametric survival analysis that are Kaplan-Meier and Nelson-Aalen.

Analysis of time-to-event (“survival”) data typically requires two pieces of data that are taken into account simultaneously: i) the time period for which follow-up was available, and ii) the status at the end of the follow-up. The former variable is continuous (time) and the latter categorical, specifying whether the endpoint was the event under study,

Conditional Kaplan–Meier Estimator with Functional Covariates for Time-to-Event Data
Due to the wide availability of functional data from multiple disciplines, the studies of functional data analysis have become popular in the recent literature. However, the related development in censored survival data has been relatively sparse.

Using the Kaplan–Meier Estimator to Assess the Reliability of Agricultural Machinery
Kaplan–Meier analyses can be used in many disciplines, e.g., agricultural engineering. Agricultural machinery and vehicles can be regarded as objects that ‘die’ because, like living creatures, they failed, although after repair they can be used until ...
