Analysis of Censored Survival Data with Dimension Reduction Methods: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
Authors
Abstract:
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. To specify an appropriate model to determine the risk of CVD and predict survival rate, users are required to specify a functional form which relates the outcome variables to the input ones. In this paper, we proposed a dimension reduction method using a general model, which includes many widely used survival models as special cases. Using an appropriate combination of dimension reduction and Cox Proportional Hazards model, we found a method which is effective for survival prediction.

Dimension reduction methods for microarrays with application to censored survival data
MOTIVATION Recent research has shown that gene expression profiles can potentially be used for predicting various clinical phenotypes, such as tumor class, drug response and survival time. While there has been extensive studies on tumor classification, there has been less emphasis on other phenotypic features, in particular, patient survival time or time to cancer recurrence, which are subject ...
full textSpatial Modeling of Censored Survival Data
An important issue in survival data analysis is the identification of risk factors. Some of these factors are identifiable and explainable by presence of some covariates in the Cox proportional hazard model, while the others are unidentifiable or even immeasurable. Spatial correlation of censored survival data is one of these sources that are rarely considered in the literatures. In this paper,...

Introduction: Microalbuminuria is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with all-cause mortality. The present study aimed to investigate the possible association between different types and amounts of dietary protein and microalbuminuria among Iranian adults participating in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). Materials and Methods: Adults (1192 men and ...

Methods of statistical analysis of censored survival times are briefly reviewed and illustrated by application to clinical trials data. These include estimation of the survival curce, nonparametric tests to compare several survival curves, tests for trend, and regression analysis. Extensions of the methodology are made for application to epidemiologic case-control studies. These are used to est...

Introduction: Elevated levels of the liver enzymes is a good predictor of non- alcoholic fatty liver disease. The aim of this cross- sectional study was to determine the association of dietary patterns and elevated levels of liver enzymes in Tehranian adults. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 436 individuals aged≥19 years, who participated in the sixth phase of Tehran lipid and...
