An Approximate Likelihood Procedure for Competing Risks Data
Parametric estimation of cause-specific hazard functions in a competing risks model is considered. An approximate likelihood procedure for estimating parameters of cause-specific hazard functions based on competing risks data subject to right censoring is proposed. In an assumed parametric model that may have been misspecified, an estimator of a parameter is said to be consistent if it converge...
متن کاملLikelihood-Based Inference for Semi-Competing Risks
Consider semi-competing risks data (two times to concurrent events are studied but only one of them is right-censored by the other one) where the link between the times Y and C to non-terminal and terminal events respectively, is modeled by a family of Archimedean copulas. Moreover, both Y and C are submitted to an independent right censoring variable D. A new methodology based on a maximum lik...
متن کاملHierarchical likelihood inference on clustered competing risks data.
The frailty model, an extension of the proportional hazards model, is often used to model clustered survival data. However, some extension of the ordinary frailty model is required when there exist competing risks within a cluster. Under competing risks, the underlying processes affecting the events of interest and competing events could be different but correlated. In this paper, the hierarchi...
متن کاملCompeting risks regression for clustered data.
A population average regression model is proposed to assess the marginal effects of covariates on the cumulative incidence function when there is dependence across individuals within a cluster in the competing risks setting. This method extends the Fine-Gray proportional hazards model for the subdistribution to situations, where individuals within a cluster may be correlated due to unobserved s...
متن کاملSemi-Competing Risks Data Analysis
Hospital readmission is a key marker of quality of healthcare; it has been used to investigate variation in quality among patients in a broad range of clinical contexts and has become an important policy measure. Notwithstanding its widespread use, however, readmission remains controversial as a measure of quality. Among the concerns raised, whether and how patient deaths are handled in the ana...
