Covariance Analysis of Censored Survival Data

Breslow, N.·1974·Biometrics

Abstract

The use of regression models for making covariance adjustments in the comparsion of survival curves is illustrated by application to a clinical trial of maintenance therapy for childhood leukemia. Three models are considered: the log linear exponential (Glasser [1967]); Cox's [1972] nonparametric generalization of this; and the linear exponential (Feigl and Zelen [1965]). Age and white blood count at diagnosis are both shown to be important for prognosis; adjustment for the latter variable has marked effects on the treatment comparisons. Both advantages and disadvantages with the regression approach are noted.

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.
