Statistical power to detect violation of the proportional hazards assumption when using the Cox regression model
The use of the Cox proportional hazards regression model is widespread. A key assumption of the model is that of proportional hazards. Analysts frequently test the validity of this assumption using statistical significance testing. However, the statistical power of such assessments is frequently unknown. We used Monte Carlo simulations to estimate the statistical power of two different methods ...
متن کاملGenerating Survival Times to Simulate Cox Proportional Hazards Models
Number of words: 2795 (excluding summary, references and tables) 2 SUMMARY This paper discusses techniques to generate survival times for simulation studies regarding Cox proportional hazards models. In linear regression models, the response variable is directly connected with the considered covariates, the regression coefficients and the simulated random errors. Thus, the response variable can...
متن کاملAlternatives for logistic regression in cross-sectional studies: an empirical comparison of models
line 13: Instead of "bivariate level analysis" I believe that "multivariate analysis" would be more suitable. I would "bivariate" instead of "univariate". Response This has been revised accordingly Comment Abstract In the methodology, I suggest using "alpha value was set to 5%" instead of "P < 0.05 was used..." Response Changed to " An alpha value of 5% was used to indicate significance of vari...
متن کاملObtaining adjusted prevalence ratios from logistic regression models in cross-sectional studies.
In the last decades, the use of the epidemiological prevalence ratio (PR) instead of the odds ratio has been debated as a measure of association in cross-sectional studies. This article addresses the main difficulties in the use of statistical models for the calculation of PR: convergence problems, availability of tools and inappropriate assumptions. We implement the direct approach to estimate...
متن کاملA comparison of the polytomous logistic regression and joint cox proportional hazards models for evaluating multiple disease subtypes in prospective cohort studies.
BACKGROUND Polytomous logistic regression models are commonly used in case-control studies of cancer to directly compare the risks associated with an exposure variable across multiple cancer subtypes. However, the validity, accuracy, and efficiency of this approach for prospective cohort studies have not been formally evaluated. METHODS We investigated the performance of the polytomous logist...
