Analysis of Censored Survival Data with Intermittently Observed Time-Dependent Binary Covariates
含间歇观测时变二元协变量的删失生存数据分析
In survival analyses that include a time-dependent covariate, the standard partial likelihood approach is often complicated by the fact that the necessary observations of the time-dependent covariate are not always available for the subjects in each risk set. In this article, we consider the situation of a binary time-dependent covariate. We specify a longitudinal model for the binary covariate with missing observations and a proportional hazards model for survival time…
