Application of Fractional Polynomial Model for Determining Prognostic Factors Associated with Survival of Patients with Gastric Cancer

open access: yesمجله اپیدمیولوژی ایران, 2013
Background & Objectives: Cox regression model is one of the statistical methods in survival analysis. The use of smoothing techniques in Cox model makes the more accurate estimates for the parameters.

Identification of glioblastoma gene prognosis modules based on weighted gene co-expression network analysis

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2018
Background Glioblastoma multiforme, the most prevalent and aggressive brain tumour, has a poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms underlying gliomagenesis remain poorly understood.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Confidence regions in Cox proportional hazards model with measurement errors and unbounded parameter set

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2018
Cox proportional hazards model with measurement errors is considered. In Kukush and Chernova (2017), we elaborated a simultaneous estimator of the baseline hazard rate $\lambda (\cdot )$ and the regression parameter β, with the unbounded parameter set ...

Regular Variation and the Identification of Generalized Accelerated Failure-Time Models [PDF]

open access: yes
Ridder (1990) provides an identification result for the Generalized Accelerated Failure-Time (GAFT) model. We point out that Ridder's proof of this result is incomplete, and provide an amended proof with an additional necessary and sufficient condition ...

Somatic mutational landscape in von Hippel–Lindau familial hemangioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The causes of central nervous system (CNS) hemangioblastoma in Von Hippel–Lindau (vHL) disease are unclear. We used Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) on familial hemangioblastoma to investigate events that underlie tumor development. Our findings suggest that VHL loss creates a permissive environment for tumor formation, while additional alterations ...

The Two-Way Proportional Hazards Model

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 2002
SummarySurvival analysis problems often involve dual timescales, most commonly calendar date and lifetime, the latter being the elapsed time since an initiating event such as a heart transplant. In our main example attention is focused on the hazard rate of ‘death’ as a function of calendar date.

Estimating excess hazard ratios and net survival when covariate data are missing: strategies for multiple imputation.

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Net survival is the survival probability we would observe if the disease under study were the only cause of death. When estimated from routinely collected population-based cancer registry data, this indicator is a key metric for cancer ...

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...
