Time-Dependent Propensity Score for Assessing the Effect of Vaccine Exposure on Pregnancy Outcomes through Pregnancy Exposure Cohort Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Women are advised to be vaccinated for influenza during pregnancy and may receive vaccine at any time during their pregnancy. In observational studies evaluating vaccine safety in pregnancy, to account for such time-varying vaccine exposure, a time ...

Modelling Survival Events with Longitudinal Covariates Measured with Error [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In survival analysis, time-dependent covariates are usually present as longitudinal data collected periodically and measured with error. The longitudinal data can be assumed to follow a linear mixed effect model and Cox regression models may be used for ...

Impact of Noradrenaline Administration Dosage on the Occurrence of Peripheral Intravenous Catheter–Related Venous Phlebitis in Critically Ill Patients Using a Time‐Dependent Multilevel Cox Regression Model [PDF]

open access: goldEmergency Medicine International
Purpose: Peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC)–administered noradrenaline offers faster treatment for septic shock but risks complications like phlebitis. We aimed to investigate the relationship between the total noradrenaline dose administered via PIVCs and the development of phlebitis by considering the ...

Development of machine learning prognostic models for overall survival of prostate cancer patients with lymph node-positive

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Prostate cancer (PCa) patients with lymph node involvement (LNI) constitute a single-risk group with varied prognoses. Existing studies on this group have focused solely on those who underwent prostatectomy (RP), using statistical models to predict ...

Survivalanalysen mit Berücksichtigung der zeitlichen Kovariablenentwicklung in klinischen Studien [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Data from the Stanford Heart Transplantation Study and our own study on brain tumor include time-dependent covariates like transplantation, which may switch only once, and others changing their value several times during follow-up. But classical analyses

A Novel Predictor Tool of Biochemical Recurrence after Radical Prostatectomy Based on a Five-MicroRNA Tissue Signature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Within five to ten years after radical prostatectomy (RP), approximately 15-34% of prostate cancer (PCa) patients experience biochemical recurrence (BCR), which is defined as recurrence of serum levels of prostate-specific antigen >0.2 µg/L, indicating ...

The rate of CD4 decline as a determinant of progression to AIDS independent of the most recent CD4 count [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The data of two cohort studies of HIV-infected individuals were used to examine whether the rate of CD4 decline is a determinant of HIV progression, independent of the most recent CD4 count.
