Likelihood calculations for matched case-control studies and survival studies with tied death times

GAIL, MITCHELL H., LUBIN, JAY H., RUBINSTEIN, LAWRENCE V.·1981·Biometrika

Abstract

A recursion is presented which permits rapid computation of a conditional likelihood function which arises in matched case-control studies and survival studies with tied death times. An example with seven parameters and ten large strata, the largest of which contains 29 cases and 52 controls, illustrates the feasibility of the conditional maximum likelihood solution. These methods may be specialized to permit rapid calculation of the conditional maximum likelihood estimate of the common odds ratio for several 2×2 tables.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
