Cervical cancer is the most common that causes death in women. This mainly caused by Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). It estimated 52 million of Indonesian women are at risk having cancer, and 36% female patients suffer from cervical cancer. type cannot be diagnosed immediately as there several years pre-malignancy phase; thus, early detection or screening needed to prevent it turning into malignan...

Power and sample size calculations for experiments modeled with binary logistic regression are becoming more common, and are even available as freeware (e.g. Ralph O’Brien’s UnifyPow application). Somewhat less common, if not altogether absent, is software that allows power analysis for multinomial logistic regression models. Using the algorithm introduced below, it is now possible to compute p...

This paper considers the class of sequential probit models in relation to other models for ordinal data. Hierarchical and other extensions of the model are proposed for applications involving discrete time (grouped) survival data. Computationally practical Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms are developed for the tting of these models. The ideas and methods are illustrated in detail with a real...

In this paper we report the estimation of conditional logistic regression models for the Health Utilities Index Mark 2 and the SF-6D, using ordinal preference data. The results are compared to the conventional regression models estimated from standard gamble data, and to the observed mean standard gamble health state valuations. For both the HUI2 and the SF-6D, the models estimated using ordina...
