Statin use and all-cause and cancer mortality: BioBank Japan cohort

Journal of Epidemiology, 2017
Background: Statins are the first-line agents used to treat patients with high serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, thus reducing the risk of death from arterial sclerotic cardiovascular disease; however, little is known about the effects of

Kaplan–Meier Estimator under Association

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1998
This work studies the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the estimation of the hazard function in a model with censored failure times. The true survival times \(T_1,\dots T_n\), with common marginal \(F\), are not assumed mutually independent. They satisfy two different notions of weak dependence: a) They are positively associated, i.e.

Expert Kaplan--Meier estimation

, 2022
The setting of a right-censored random sample subject to contamination is considered. In various fields, expert information is often available and used to overcome the contamination. This paper integrates expert knowledge into the product-limit estimator in two different ways with distinct interpretations.

Bootstrapping the Kaplan–Meier estimator on the whole line [PDF]

Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, 2018
This article is concerned with proving the consistency of Efron's (1981) bootstrap for the Kaplan-Meier estimator on the whole support of a survival function. While other works address the asymptotic Gaussianity of the estimator itself without restricting time (e.g.
