Regression Analysis of Relative Survival Rates
Applied Statistics, 1987Survival from cancer or other chronic diseases is often measured using the relative survival rate. This, in turn, is defined as the ratio of the observed survival rate in the patient group under consideration to the expected survival rate in a group taken from the general population.

On long-term relative survival rates
Journal of Chronic Diseases, 1977Abstract The relative survival rate over a given period has been defined as the ratio of the proportion of survivors over the period in the patient group, to the proportion of survivors expected in a similar group of persons without the disease. If there are found consecutive relative survival rates, all calculated from the beginning of follow-up up ...

The Statistical Comparison of Relative Survival Rates
Biometrics, 1983A statistical procedure for comparing the survival of two or more groups of patients adjusted for normal mortality expectation, i.e. for calculating relative survival, is proposed. The method is shown to correspond to some commonly used procedures for comparing unadjusted survival; it provides an improvement over these procedures in many situations ...

Additive and Multiplicative Models for Relative Survival Rates
Biometrics, 1984The relative survival rate is the ratio of the overall survival rate to that 'expected' for demographically similar individuals in a reference population. It is commonly used to estimate the effect of a particular disease on mortality, when the cause of death is not reliably known.

Evaluating depth of disparities in relation to relative survival rates: Analysis of SEER data.
Journal of Clinical Oncology, 20236602 Background: Prior studies have identified widening survival disparities between Black vs White patients (pts) in solid tumors with higher 5-year relative survival rates (RSR), a surrogate for higher amenability to treatment (Tehranifar et al., 2009).

Effect of Relative Humidity On Rate of Desiccation and Survival of Hirschmanniella Spp
Nematologica, 1980The desiccation survival and rate of desiccation of three Hirschmanniella species were studied. A slow desiccation of technique (Simons, 1973) was used at five different relative humidities to determine survival while the rate of desiccation was investigated by Ellenby's (1975) "fast" desiccation technique.

Journal of Urology, 2014
Chronic kidney disease is associated with a higher likelihood of progression to end stage renal disease and increased mortality rates. However, the etiology of nephron loss may modify the rate of chronic kidney disease progression and overall survival.Patients with suspected renal malignancy who had a new baseline glomerular filtration rate of less ...

Growth Rate and Survival in Relation to Relative Head Size in Vipera berus
Journal of Herpetology, 1994In gape-limited predators, such as snakes, the availability of potential prey is partly determined by swallowing capacity, i.e., maximum ingestible prey size. Relative head size in snakes influences swallowing capacity and has been shown to vary among species, populations, and sexes.
