Journal ArticleDOI
Calculating reference intervals for laboratory measurements
Eileen M Wright,Patrick Royston +1 more
TL;DR: Methods of estimating reference intervals and age-specific reference intervals (where the measurement is dependent on a covariate, typically age) are reviewed and the issues of calculating confidence bands, determining appropriate sample sizes and assessing goodness-of-fit are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A New Proposal for Multivariable Modelling of Time‐Varying Effects in Survival Data Based on Fractional Polynomial Time‐Transformation
TL;DR: A new procedure is introduced, MFPT, an extension of the multivariable fractional polynomial (MFP) approach, to accommodate non-PH effects of the Cox proportional hazards model, and creates prognostic models from a large database of patients with primary breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating departure from normality.
TL;DR: Indices of departure based on the Shapiro-Francia W' and the Shapiro -Wilk W statistics are derived, and shown to have a natural interpretation in relation to the normal probability plot.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the effects of standard prognostic factors in node-positive breast cancer
TL;DR: It is concluded that analysis using fractional polynomials can extract important prognostic information which the traditional approaches may miss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visualizing and assessing discrimination in the logistic regression model.
TL;DR: This work advocates a simple graphic that provides further insight into discrimination, namely a histogram or dot plot of the risk score in the outcome groups, and discusses the comparative merits of the c-index and the (standardized) mean difference in risk score between the outcomes groups.
