Testing and confidence intervals for high dimensional proportional hazards models [PDF]
The paper considers the problem of hypothesis testing and confidence intervals in high dimensional proportional hazards models. Motivated by a geometric projection principle, we propose a unified likelihood ratio inferential framework, including score ...

Moving beyond the Cox proportional hazards model in survival data analysis: a cervical cancer study
Objectives This study explored the prognostic factors and developed a prediction model for Chinese-American (CA) cervical cancer (CC) patients. We compared two alternative models (the restricted mean survival time (RMST) model and the proportional ...

Impact of delayed treatment in women diagnosed with breast cancer: A population‐based study
The impact of timely treatment on breast cancer‐specific survival may differ by tumor stage. We aim to study the impact of delayed first treatment on overall survival across different tumor stages.
