TL;DR: This article proposes methods for combining estimates of the cause-specific hazard functions under the proportional hazards formulation, but these methods do not allow the analyst to directly assess the effect of a covariate on the marginal probability function.

TL;DR: From comprehensive assessment of data, it is offered recommendations that multiple CFTR alleles should eventually be included to increase the sensitivity of newborn screening programs employing two‐tier testing with trypsinogen and DNA analysis.

TL;DR: The galactomannan assay has moderate accuracy for diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis in immunocompromised patients and is more useful in patients who have hematological malignancy or who have undergone hematopoietic cell transplantation than in solid-organ transplant recipients.

TL;DR: It is found that many authors provided an unclear or incorrect interpretation of the regression coefficients associated with the Fine‐Gray subdistribution hazard model, and suggestions for interpreting these coefficients are proposed.

TL;DR: This paper investigates generalized estimating equations for association parameters, which are frequently of interest in family studies, with emphasis on covariance estimation, and finds that the formula for the approximate jackknife variance estimator in Ziegler et al. is deficient, resulting in systematic deviations from the fully iterated jackknifevariance estimator.
