Cox regression survival analysis with compositional covariates: application to modelling mortality risk from 24-h physical activity patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Survival analysis is commonly conducted in medical and public health research to assess the association of an exposure or intervention with a hard end outcome such as mortality. The Cox (proportional hazards) regression model is probably the most popular

Non-linear dose-response relationship between body mass index and stroke risk in middle-aged and elderly Chinese men: a nationwide Longitudinal Cohort Study from CHARLS

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
ObjectiveBody mass index (BMI) and stroke risk have been linked, but these findings are still debated. This study investigated the relationship between BMI and stroke risk in a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population.MethodsThis study used four waves ...

Extensions of Cox model for non-proportional hazards purpose [PDF]

open access: yesEkonometria, 2014
Cox proportional hazard model is one of the most common methods used in analysis of time to event data. The idea of the model is to define hazard level as a dependent variable which is being explained by the time-related component (so called baseline hazard) and covariates-related component.

K-sample omnibus non-proportional hazards tests based on right-censored data [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Methods in Medical Research, 2020
This work presents novel and powerful tests for comparing non-proportional hazard functions, based on sample–space partitions. Right censoring introduces two major difficulties, which make the existing sample–space partition tests for uncensored data non-applicable: (i) the actual event times of censored observations are unknown and (ii) the standard ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio is associated with regression to normoglycemia from prediabetes in adults: a 5-year cohort study in China

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Objective The current body of evidence on the association between the ratio of triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-c) and the reversal of prediabetes to normoglycemia remains limited.

Bayesian correction for covariate measurement error: a frequentist evaluation and comparison with regression calibration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Bayesian approaches for handling covariate measurement error are well established, and yet arguably are still relatively little used by researchers. For some this is likely due to unfamiliarity or disagreement with the Bayesian inferential paradigm.

Treatment Decision‐Making Roles and Preferences Among Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Decision‐making (DM) dynamics between adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer, parents, and oncologists remain underexplored in diverse populations. We examined cancer treatment DM preferences among an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse group of AYAs and their parents.
