A generalized F mixture model for cure rate estimation.
Cure rate estimation is an important issue in clinical trials for diseases such as lymphoma and breast cancer and mixture models are the main statistical methods. In the last decade, mixture models under different distributions, such as exponential, Weibull, log-normal and Gompertz, have been discussed and used. However, these models involve stronger distributional assumptions than is desirable...
متن کاملpromotion time cure model with generalized poisson-inverse gaussian distribution
background & aim: in the survival data with long-term survivors the event has not occurred for all the patients despite long-term follow-up, so the survival time for a certain percent is censored at the end of the study. mixture cure model was introduced by boag, 1949 for reaching a more efficient analysis of this set of data. because of some disadvantages of this model non-mixtur...
متن کاملExtrapolation Method for Numerical Solution of a Model for Endemic Infectious Diseases
Introduction Many infectious diseases are endemic in a population. In other words they present for several years. Suppose that the population size is constant and the population is uniform. In the SIR model the population is divided into three disjoint classes which change with time t and let , and be the fractions of the population that susceptible, infectious and removed, respectively. This...
متن کاملInfectious Diseases Concomitant with Urinary Tract Infections in Children
65 Abstract: Urinary–tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infectious diseases in children; however, the significance of combined infection in the pathogenesis of UTI remains uncertain. Of 48,382 patients discharged from Texas Children’s Hospital from July 1, 1991, to June 30, 1994, 1,221 (2.5%) were discharged with a diagnosis of UTI. We retrospectively reviewed the files of these 1,...
