15 صفحه اولStatistical validation of surrogate outcome measures
With the large number of promising new molecules that are currently available for clinical testing, clinical trials need to detect a drug’s benefit (or harm) as quickly as possible. In parallel with the need for speed in clinical development, advances in molecular biology, high throughput technologies and imaging techniques provide investigators with an ever growing number of biomarkers which c...
متن کاملStatistical inference for poverty measures with relative poverty lines
Relative poverty lines such as one-half median income have been increasingly used in poverty studies. This paper contributes to the literature by developing statistical inference for testing decomposable poverty measures with relative poverty lines. The poverty lines we consider are percentages of mean income and percentages of quantiles. We show that the estimates of poverty indices with relat...
متن کاملValidation studies of outcome measures in pemphigus☆☆☆★
Pemphigus is a group of rare and potentially fatal autoimmune blistering diseases that are associated with auto-antibodies that target intercellular adhesion molecules. Incidence of pemphigus varies among populations, with the lowest incidence in Switzerland and Finland at 0.6-0.76 per million per year and the highest in Jewish communities at 16.1-32 per million per year. Pemphigus is associate...
متن کاملExploring New Statistical Methods for Causal Inference in Longitudinal Studies
This study proposes a novel method to provide unbiased effect estimates in the presence of time-dependent confounding and applies the method in an existing merged multi-source nursing home dataset to examine the effect of antipsychotic medication use on all cause mortality. Using standard methods, effect estimates of time-varying exposures from observational data will be biased in the presence ...
