متن کاملChecking for the Gamma Frailty Distribution under the Marginal Proportional Hazards Frailty Model
The marginal proportional hazards frailty model for multivariate failure time data characterizes the intracluster dependency with the frailty model while formulating the marginal distributions with the proportional hazards model. The gamma frailty distribution has been widely used to model intracluster dependency because of its simple interpretation and mathematical tractability. Glidden (2000)...

متن کاملMultidimensional Approach to Frailty among Rural Older People: Applying the Tilburg Frailty Indicator
Introduction: Frailty is a common geriatric syndrome. Studies of frailty and old age have been able to help reduce its underlying causes and complication. Understanding the frailty and its associated factors in developing countries such as Iran, can help gather information on conditions of the elderly and better plan for this age population.

متن کاملA frailty model for informative censoring.
To account for the correlation between failure and censoring, we propose a new frailty model for clustered data. In this model, the risk to be censored is affected by the risk of failure. This model allows flexibility in the direction and degree of dependence between failure and censoring. It includes the traditional frailty model as a special case. It allows censoring by some causes to be anal...
