A Model for the Analysis of Caries Occurrence in Primary Molar Tooth Surfaces [PDF]

, 2012
Recently methods of caries quantification in the primary dentition have moved away from summary ‘whole mouth’ measures at the individual level to methods based on generalised linear modelling (GLM) approaches or survival analysis approaches. However, GLM

Modeling left-truncated and right-censored survival data with longitudinal covariates [PDF]

, 2012
There is a surge in medical follow-up studies that include longitudinal covariates in the modeling of survival data. So far, the focus has been largely on right-censored survival data.

Surviving in the era of "Big Data" [PDF]

Blood Research, 2013
In the Stone Age, livelihood required only a few tools, including stone axes, stone blades, stone mortars, and earthenware. These simple tools may have been adequate for survival in that period. However, human lifestyle has dramatically changed over a long history of "ups and downs." There have been many remarkable advances in the fields of knowledge ...

Nonparametric survival analysis of epidemic data

, 2011
This paper develops nonparametric methods for the survival analysis of epidemic data based on contact intervals. The contact interval from person i to person j is the time between the onset of infectiousness in i and infectious contact from i to j, where

Quantile Regression for Survival Data

Annual Review of Statistics and Its Application, 2021
Quantile regression offers a useful alternative strategy for analyzing survival data. Compared with traditional survival analysis methods, quantile regression allows for comprehensive and flexible evaluations of covariate effects on a survival outcome of interest while providing simple physical interpretations on the time scale. Moreover, many quantile

Analysis of survival data with cross-effects of survival functions [PDF]

Biostatistics, 2004
We present a model and semiparametric estimation procedures for analysis of survival data with cross-effects (CE) of survival functions. Finite sample properties of the estimators are analyzed by simulation. A goodness-of-fit test for the proportional hazards model against the CE model is proposed. The well known data concerning effects of chemotherapy

The role of adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with resected pancreatic cancer: Systematic review of randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2007
Background: In patients undergoing surgery for resectable pancreatic cancer prognosis still remains poor. The role of adjuvant treatment strategies (including chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy) following resection of pancreatic cancer remains ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
