Relatively there is little empirical research that has been taken to understand how the underlying economy affects customers’ subsequent financial product purchase behaviours. A better understanding of this influence and being able to predict the probability of purchasing are important for financial service industries. This paper undertakes an examination of the impacts of social-demographic an...

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a commonly fatal cancer that ranks as third worldwide and third and the fifth in Iranian women and men, respectively. There are several methods for analyzing time to event data. Additive hazards regression models take priority over the popular Cox proportional hazards model if the absolute hazard (risk) change instead of hazard ratio is of primary concer...

Stroke adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh terhentinya suplai darah ke otak menyebabkan kehilangan fungsinya. terjadi ketika pembuluh di tersumbat, mengakibatkan tidak mendapatkan oksigen cukup untuk membawa seluruh tubuh, kematian sel/jaringan. Faktor risiko stroke dapat dipengaruhi usia, jenis kelamin, dan faktor akibat perilaku sehat seperti hipertensi, diabetes. Berbagai diduga mempengaruh...

In this paper, the Cox proportional hazard model is used to answer several questions. In general, fourteen variables are applied in four groups: firm, industry, expenditure human resources specific characteristics as well. According to the previous literature in this field, the findings of this paper also show that the factors which affect life duration of firms are different between industries...

Abstract Background Autonomic disturbance is common in end stage renal disease (ESRD) and may be responsible for mortality these patients. Heart rate variability (HRV) the useful tool to assess autonomic function. The predictive value of HRV on overall-mortality proper timing measurement chronic hemodialysis patients remain determined. Propose To evaluate all-cause explore assessment by perform...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown an association between impaired kidney function, assessed by cystatin C-based estimated glomerular filtration rate, and venous thromboembolism. The aim of this study was to investigate whether serum cystatin C was associated with a risk of venous thromboembolism among subjects with normal kidney function in a prospective population-based study. DESIGN AN...

We examine the effect of model misspecification for two classes of semi-parametric survival models frequently used for the analysis of right-censored survival data, additive and multiplicative models for the conditional hazard rate. The additive class will be represented by Aalen’s linear model [1], while the multiplicative class will be represented by the Cox proportional hazards (PH) model [2...
