Semiparametric Models for Left Truncation and Right Censoring with Missing Censoring Indicators
We derive the asymptotic distributions of a semiparametric Dikta-type estimator and an inverse probability weighted type estimator of a survival function for a missing censoring indicator left truncated model and provide a theoretical comparison study.
متن کاملNonparametric Estimation of the Incubation Period of AIDS with Left Truncation and Right Censoring
In the natural history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type-1 (HIV-1) infection, many studies included the participants who were seropositive at time of enrollment. Estimation of the unknown times since exposure to HIV-1 in the prevalent cohorts is of primary importance for estimation of the incubation period of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). To estimate incubation period of AIDS we...
متن کاملBivariate Competing Risks Models Under Random Left Truncation and Right Censoring
In survival or reliability studies, it is common to have truncated data due to the limited time span of the study or dropouts of the subjects for various reasons. The estimation of survivor function under left truncation was first discussed by Kaplan and Meier by extending the well known productlimit estimator of the survivor function. The focus of this paper is on the nonparametric estimation ...
متن کاملGeneralized Time-dependent Conditional Linear Models under Left Truncation and Right Censoring
Consider the model φ(S(z|X)) = β(z)t ~ X, where φ is a known link function, S(·|X) is the survival function of a response Y given a covariate X, ~ X = (1,X,X2, . . . ,Xp) and β(z) = (β0(z), . . . , βp(z)) t is an unknown vector of time-dependent regression coefficients. The response is subject to left truncation and right censoring. Under this model, which reduces for special choices of φ to e....
متن کاملBias due to left truncation and left censoring in longitudinal studies of developmental and disease processes.
In longitudinal studies of developmental and disease processes, participants are followed prospectively with intermediate milestones identified as they occur. Frequently, studies enroll participants over a range of ages including ages at which some participants' milestones have already passed. Ages at milestones that occur prior to study entry are left censored if individuals are enrolled in th...
