Simulation of parametric model towards the fixed covariate of right censored lung cancer data

TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation procedure was applied to measure the fixed covariate of right censored lung cancer data by using parametric survival model and the scale and shape parameter were modified to differentiate the analysis of parametric regression survival model.

Modelling departure from randomised treatment in randomised controlled trials with survival outcomes

Susanna Dodd
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore, explain, demonstrate and compare the use of causal methodologies in the analysis of trials, in order to increase the accessibility and comprehensibility by nonspecialist analysts of the available, but somewhat technical, statistical methods to adjust for treatment deviations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analyzing Grouped, Censored, and Truncated Data Using the Odd Weibull Family

TL;DR: In this article, the odd Weibull family has been shown to be useful not only for lifetime data modeling, but also discriminating between Weibell and inverse Weibll distributions, and adapted this two-way estimation method for analyzing grouped, censored, and truncated data that frequently encountered in survival analysis.

Social Interaction in Regional Labour Markets

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct a Pissarides type search model with social interaction and show that despite social interaction, this type of model is characterised by only one stable equilibrium.

Predictors of early and late outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention in octogenarians.

TL;DR: Percutaneous coronary intervention can be performed safely in octogenarians and complete revascularization, stenting and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction were independent predictors of better outcome in this population.

Mineral Metabolism, Mortality, and Morbidity in Maintenance Hemodialysis

TL;DR: Hyperphosphatemia and hyperparathyroidism were significantly associated with all-cause, cardiovascular, and fracture-related hospitalization, and the population attributable risk percentage for disorders of mineral metabolism was 17.5%, owing largely to the high prevalence of hyperph phosphatemia.

Overall Survival and Updated Results for Sunitinib Compared With Interferon Alfa in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

TL;DR: Sunitinib demonstrates longer overall survival compared with IFN-alpha plus improvement in response and progression-free survival in the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic RCC, highlighting an improved prognosis in patients with RCC in the era of targeted therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival and Prognostic Stratification of 670 Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma

TL;DR: Five prognostic factors for predicting survival were identified and used to categorize patients with metastatic RCC into three risk groups, for which the median survival times were separated by 6 months or more.
