Modelling Survival Data in Medical Research

About this book

Modelling Survival Data in Medical Research describes the modelling approach to the analysis of survival data using a wide range of examples from biomedical research.Well known for its nontechnical style, this third edition contains new chapters on frailty models and their applications, competing risks, non-proportional hazards, and dependent censo

SURVIVAL
ANALYSIS
The
use
of
S-PLUS
in
survival
analysis
is
also
described
in
Everitt
and
Rabe-
Hesketh
(2001)
and
Tableman
and
Kim
(2004),
while
Brostrยจom
(2012)
shows
how
R
is
used
in
the
analysis
of
survival
data.
Venables
and
Ripley
(2002)
describe
how
graphical
and
numerical
data
analyses
can
be
carried
out
in
the
S
environment
that
is
implemented
in
both
R
and
S-PLUS;
note
that
S
code
generally
runs
under
R.
A
similarly
comprehensive
account
of
the
R
system
is
given
by
Crawley
(2013),
while
Dalgaard
(2008)
gives
a
more
elementary
introduction
to
R.
The
short
introduction
to
R
of
Venables
and
Smith
(2009)
is
also
available
from
R
Core
Team
(2013).
The
use
of
Stata
in
survival
analysis
is
presented
by
Cleves
et
al.
(2010),
and
Rabe-Hesketh
and
Everitt
(2007)
give
a
more
general
introduction
to
the
use
of
Stata
in
data
analysis.
