Description for Flexible Parametric Survival Analysis Using Stata: Beyond the Cox Model
Paperback. Num Pages: 339 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: MBNS. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 187 x 22. Weight in Grams: 760.
Through real-world case studies, this book shows how to use Stata to estimate a class of flexible parametric survival models. It discusses the modeling of time-dependent and continuous covariates and looks at how relative survival can be used to measure mortality associated with a particular disease when the cause of death has not been recorded. The book describes simple quantification of differences between any two covariate patterns through calculation of time-dependent hazard ratios, hazard differences, and survival differences.
