Immunologic function and survival in hemodialysis patients [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 1998
Although the medical determinants of mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) treated with hemodialysis (HD) are well appreciated, the contribution of immunologic parameters to survival in such patients is unclear, especially when variations in age, medical comorbidity and nutrition are controlled.

Survival as a Function of Life Expectancy [PDF]

open access: yesDemographic Research, 2009
It is well known that life expectancy can be expressed as an integral of the survival curve. The reverse - that the survival function can be expressed as an integral of life expectancy - is also true.

Survival functions versus conditional aggregation-based survival functions on discrete space [PDF]

open access: yesInformation Sciences, 2022
In this paper we deal with conditional aggregation-based survival functions recently introduced by Boczek et al. (2020). The concept is worth to study because of its possible implementation in real-life situations and mathematical theory as well. The aim of this paper is the comparison of this new notion with the standard survival function.

The Combined Stop-Loss and Quota-Share Reinsurance: Conditional Tail Expectation-Based Optimization from the Joint Perspective of Insurer and Reinsurer

open access: yesRisks, 2021
In the presence of reinsurance, an insurer may effectively reduce its (aggregated) loss by partially ceding such a loss to a reinsurer. Stop-loss and quota-share reinsurance contracts are commonly agreed between these two parties.

Mortality as a Function of Survival

open access: yesDemography, 2023
Abstract Everyone has a chronological age. Because survivorship declines relentlessly in populations with age-specific death rates greater than zero, everyone also has a survivorship age (“s-age”), the age at which a proportion s of the population is still alive. S-ages can be estimated for both periods and cohorts. While trajectories of
