Pseudo-partial likelihood for proportional hazards models with biased-sampling data.
We obtain a pseudo-partial likelihood for proportional hazards models with biased-sampling data by embedding the biased-sampling data into left-truncated data.

Background: Cox proportional hazard regression (CPH) model relies on the proportional hazard (PH) assumption: the hazard of variables is independent of time. CPH has been widely used to identify prognostic markers of the transcriptome.

When can relative risks provide causal estimates? [PDF]
It is emphasised that for epidemiological studies where disease incidence is rare, results from conventional proportional hazards models can often correctly estimate causal associations. The well-known "backdoor criteria" from causal-inference is applied to the common epidemiological study of rare diseases with a proportional hazards model, providing ...

Data Reduction in Proportional Hazards Models Applied to Reliability Prediction of Centrifugal Pumps
This paper presents the use of proportional hazards regression models for predicting the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of centrifugal pumps in the oil and gas industry.

The ranked set sampling (RSS) is an efficient and flexible sampling method. Based on a modified RSS named minimum ranked set sampling samples (MinRSSU), inference of a dependent competing risks model is proposed in this paper.

Instrumental variable estimation of the proportional hazards model by presmoothing [PDF]
We consider instrumental variable estimation of the proportional hazards model of Cox (1972). The instrument and the endogenous variable are discrete but there can be (possibly continuous) exogenous covariables. By making a rank invariance assumption, we can reformulate the proportional hazards model into a semiparametric version of the instrumental ...

Linking period and cohort life-expectancy linear increases in Gompertz proportional hazards models
In a Gompertz mortality model with constant yearly improvements at all ages, linear increases in period life expectancy correspond to linear increases in the respective cohort life expectancy.

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.

On a general structure for hazard-based regression models: an application to population-based cancer research [PDF]
The proportional hazards model represents the most commonly assumed hazard structure when analysing time to event data using regression models. We study a general hazard structure which contains, as particular cases, proportional hazards, accelerated hazards, and accelerated failure time structures, as well as combinations of these.

Background Most clinical trials with time-to-event primary outcomes are designed assuming constant event rates and proportional hazards over time. Non-constant event rates and non-proportional hazards are seen increasingly frequently in trials.
