Modelling Survival Data in Medical Research, Fourth Edition
describes the analysis of survival data, illustrated using a wide
range of examples from biomedical research. Written in a
non-technical style, it concentrates on how the techniques are used
in practice. Starting with standard methods for summarising
survival data, Cox regression and parametric modelling, the book
covers many more advanced techniques, including interval-censoring,
frailty modelling, competing risks, analysis of multiple events,
and dependent censoring. This new edition contains chapters on
Bayesian survival analysis and use of the R software. Earlier
chapters have been extensively revised and expanded to add new
material on several topics. These include methods for assessing the
predictive ability of a model, joint models for longitudinal and
survival data, and modern methods for the analysis of
interval-censored survival data. Features: Presents an accessible
account of a wide range of statistical methods for analysing
survival data Contains practical guidance on modelling survival
data from the author's many years of experience in teaching and
consultancy Shows how Bayesian methods can be used to analyse
survival data Includes details on how R can be used to carry out
all the methods described, with guidance on the interpretation of
the resulting output Contains many real data examples and
additional data sets that can be used for coursework All data sets
used are available in electronic format from the publisher's
website Modelling Survival Data in Medical Research, Fourth Edition
is an invaluable resource for statisticians in the pharmaceutical
industry and biomedical research centres, research scientists and
clinicians who are analysing their own data, and students following
undergraduate or postgraduate courses in survival analysis.
