Survival trees for interval‐censored survival data [PDF]
Statistics in Medicine, 2017 Interval‐censored data, in which the event time is only known to lie in some time interval, arise commonly in practice, for example, in a medical study in which patients visit clinics or hospitals at prescheduled times and the events of interest occur between visits.

Benchmarking survival outcomes: A funnel plot for survival data [PDF]
Statistical Methods in Medical Research, 2022 Benchmarking is commonly used in many healthcare settings to monitor clinical performance, with the aim of increasing cost-effectiveness and safe care of patients. The funnel plot is a popular tool in visualizing the performance of a healthcare center in relation to other centers and to a target, taking into account statistical uncertainty.

Statistical Analysis of Survival Data [PDF]
Annual Review of Public Health, 1984 A general review of the statistical techniques that the authors feel are most important in the analysis of survival data is presented. The emphasis is on the study of the duration of time between any two events as applied to people and on the nonparametric and semiparametric models most often used in these settings. The unifying concept is the hazard

Goodness-of-fit criteria for survival data [PDF]
, 2004 The definition of an appropriate measure for goodness-of-fit in case of survival data comparable to R^2 in linear regression is difficult due to censored observations.

Attributable fractions with survival data [PDF]
Statistics in Medicine, 2007 AbstractAttributable fraction (AF) is an important concept in clinical and epidemiological studies. The concept has mainly been discussed in relation to case–control studies, cross‐sectional studies, and follow‐up studies of fixed length. Here, we propose and discuss several ways of defining and estimating AFs with right‐censored survival data, and ...

Dobutamine stress MRI in pulmonary hypertension: relationships between stress pulmonary artery relative area change, RV performance, and 10-year survival [PDF]
, 2017 In pulmonary hypertension (PH), right ventricular (RV) performance determines survival. Pulmonary artery (PA) stiffening is an important biomechanical event in PH and also predicts survival based on the PA relative area change (RAC) measured at rest ...
