Survival Analysis of Cancer Patients Using Parametric and Non-parametric Approaches
نویسندگان
چکیده
Exploring the health related quality of life is usually the focus of the survival studies. Using the health data of cancer registry in Multan, Pakistan, an investigation about the survival pattern of cancer patients was explored, using the non-parametric and parametric modeling strategies. The Kaplan-Meier method and Weibull model based on Anderson-Darling test were applied to the real life time data. Findings suggested different sex-superiority of survival pattern among different groups of cancer patients. Interestingly, Kaplan-Meier and Weibul model provided a very close estimate of the survival function and other characteristics of interest.

Survival analysis of breast cancer patients with different chronic diseases through parametric and semi-parametric approaches
Introduction: There is a lack of information on the extent of dependency between chronic diseases and the survival rate of breast cancer. Until date, none of the models proposed has determined the impact of chronic diseases on breast cancer survival. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the impacts of chronic diseases such as diabetes, blood pressure, and endocrine di...
