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

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 ...

Hidden Imputations and the Kaplan-Meier Estimator. [PDF]
The 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.

Impact of Paravalvular Leak on Outcomes After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Meta-Analysis of Kaplan-Meier-derived Individual Patient Data [PDF]
Background Paravalvular leak (PVL) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is frequent and the impact of mild PVL on outcomes remains uncertain. Our study aimed to evaluate the impact of PVL on TAVI outcomes. Methods To analyze late outcomes

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 ...

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,
