Random-effects regression modelling is proposed for analysis of correlated grouped-time survival data and a full-information maximum marginal likelihood solution is implemented using numerical quadrature to integrate over the distribution of multiple random effects.
Abstract
Random-effects regression modelling is proposed for analysis of correlated grouped-time survival data Two analysis approaches are considered The first treats survival time as an ordinal outcome, which is either right-censored or not The second approach treats survival time as a set of dichotomous indicators of whether the event occurred for time periods up to the period of the event or censor For either approach both proportional hazards and proportional odds versions of the random-effects model are developed, while partial proportional hazards and odds generalizations are described for the latter approach For estimation, a full-information maximum marginal likelihood solution is implemented using numerical quadrature to integrate over the distribution of multiple random effects The quadrature solution allows some flexibility in the choice of distributions for the random effects; both normal and rectangular distributions are considered in this article An analysis of a dataset where students are clustered within schools is used to illustrate features of random-effects analysis of clustered grouped-time survival data

Design and analysis of group-randomized trials: a review of recent methodological developments.

TL;DR: Developments in estimates of intraclass correlation, power analysis, matched designs, designs involving one group per condition, and designs in which individuals are randomized to receive treatments in groups are reviewed.

Adjustments for Center in Multicenter Studies: An Overview

TL;DR: The inattention of published studies to departures from the assumption behind most statistical methods, the independence of observations, is overlooked, and investigators need to identify centers, incorporate the concept of centers into their designs, estimate the design effect, and adjust confidence intervals and P values appropriately.

Initial Manifestations of Frailty Criteria and the Development of Frailty Phenotype in the Women's Health and Aging Study II

TL;DR: It is suggested that weakness may serve as a warning sign of increasing vulnerability in early frailty development, and weight loss and exhaustion may help to identify women most at risk for rapid adverse progression.

Individual Covariation in Life‐History Traits: Seeing the Trees Despite the Forest

TL;DR: The results provided confirmation of what has been suggested by other investigators: within‐cohort phenotypic selection can mask senescence, and the development of models permitting access to individual variation in fitness is a promising advance for the study ofsenescence and evolutionary processes.

Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models

TL;DR: In this article, an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data is proposed, which gives consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence.
