Frailty Survival Model Analysis of the National Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Dataset Using Poisson Variance Structures
利用泊松方差结构分析亡故供者肾移植数据的脆弱性生存模型
In a recent study of transplant outcomes, donor age, cerebrovascular accident as the cause of death (CVA), renal insufficiency (serum creatinine >1.5 mg/dL), and history of hypertension have been identified as donor factors associated with elevated risk of kidney transplant failure. It is of great interest to know whether there remain other unmeasured donor factors associated with elevated risk of graft failure. In this article we study a sample of 6,024 deceased donor…
