Analysis of Birth Spacing Using Frailty Models
Background and objectives: Birth spacing is an important variable for identification of fertility acceleration, total fertility rate, and maternal and fetal health. Therefore, special attention has been paid to this issue by researchers in the fields of medical sciences, health, and population. In addition, proper analysis of this concept is of foremost importance. Application of classical anal...
متن کاملsurvival analysis of breast cancer patients using cox and frailty models
background: cox proportional hazard (cph) model is the most widely used model for survival analysis. when there are unobserved/unmeasured individuals factor, then the results of the cox proportional hazard model may not be reliable. the purpose of this study was to compare the results of cph and frailty models in breast cancer (bc) patients. methods: a historical cohort study was carried out us...
متن کاملDynamic survival models with spatial frailty.
In many survival studies, covariates effects are time-varying and there is presence of spatial effects. Dynamic models can be used to cope with the variations of the effects and spatial components are introduced to handle spatial variation. This paper proposes a methodology to simultaneously introduce these components into the model. A number of specifications for the spatial components are con...
متن کاملCox and Frailty Models for Analysis of Esophageal Cancer Data
By existing censor and skewness in survival data, some models such as weibull are used to analyzing survival data. In addition, parametric and semiparametric models can be obtained from baseline hazard function of Cox model to fit to survival data. However these models are popular because of their simple usage but do not consider unknown risk factors, that's why cannot introduce the be...
متن کاملHandling survival bias in proportional hazards models: A frailty approach
Survival bias is a potential problem when subjects are lost to follow-up, and this selection issue may arise in a wide range of biomedical studies. Controlling for the bias is difficult because subjects may be lost due to unmeasured factors. This article presents a two-step method that adjusts for survival bias in the proportional hazards model, even when unmeasured factors influence survival. ...
