Estimating and modelling relative survival
Relative survival, the survival analogue of excess mortality, is the method of choice for estimating patient survival using data collected by populationbased cancer registries. The relative survival ratio is typically estimated from life tables as the ratio of the observed survival of the patients (where all deaths are considered events) to the expected survival of a comparable group from the g...
متن کاملEstimating the Net Survival of Patients with Gastric Cancer in Iran in a Relative Survival Framework
Background: Iran is an Eastern Mediterranean region country with the highest rate of gastric cancer. The present study aimed to evaluate the 5-year net survival of patients with gastric cancer in Iran using a relative survival framework.Methods: In a cross-sectional study, using life-table estimation of relative survival, we reported 1- to 5-year relative survival regarding age, sex, disease st...
متن کاملRegression models for relative survival.
Four approaches to estimating a regression model for relative survival using the method of maximum likelihood are described and compared. The underlying model is an additive hazards model where the total hazard is written as the sum of the known baseline hazard and the excess hazard associated with a diagnosis of cancer. The excess hazards are assumed to be constant within pre-specified bands o...
متن کاملModeling Survival Data with Competing Risk Events using SAS Macros
Competing Risk (CR) event is one that a patient may experience (other than the event of interest) which can prevent the event of interest from occurring. A naive use of classical survival analysis methods in the presence of CR leads to a bias by overestimating the probability of disease incidence. Hence it is important to account for CR events when estimating disease incidence. This can be done...
متن کاملEasy SAS calculations for risk or prevalence ratios and differences.
We would like to make the readership aware that risk or prevalence ratios and differences, when they are the parameter of interest, can be directly calculated by using SAS software (SAS Institute, Inc., Cary, North Carolina). There is no longer any good justification for fitting logistic regression models and estimating odds ratios when the odds ratio is not a good approximation of the risk or ...
