Robust Inference for Univariate Proportional Hazards Frailty Regression Models
We consider a class of semiparametric regression models which are one-parameter extensions of the Cox [J. Roy. Statist. Soc. Ser. B 34 (1972) 187–220] model for right-censored univariate failure times. These models assume that the hazard given the covariates and a random frailty unique to each individual has the proportional hazards form multiplied by the frailty. The frailty is assumed to have...
متن کاملProportional hazards frailty models for recurrent methadone maintenance treatment.
The authors' objective in this study was to identify determinants of time to discontinuation of methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) across multiple treatment episodes. Population-level data on drug dispensations for all patients receiving methadone for opioid maintenance throughout the tenure of the British Columbia, Canada, methadone program to date (1996-2007) were extracted from an adminis...
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. ...
متن کاملCause-selecting Charts based on Proportional Hazards and Binary Frailty Models (Quality Engineering Conference Paper)
Monitoring the reliability of products in both the manufacturing and service processes is of main concern in today’s competitive market. To this end, statistical process control has been widely used to control the reliability-related quality variables. The so-far surveillance schemes have addressed processes with independent quality characteristics. In multistage processes, however, the cascade...
متن کاملRobust Frailty Modelling using Non-Proportional Hazards Models
Correlated survival times can be modelled by introducing a random effect, or frailty component, into the hazard function. For multivariate survival data we extend a non-PH model, the generalized time-dependent logistic survival model, to include random effects. The hierarchical-likelihood procedure, which obviates the need for marginalization over the random effect distribution, is derived for ...
