On adjustment for auxiliary covariates in additive hazard models for the analysis of randomized experiments
随机实验中加性风险模型的辅助协变量调整
We consider additive hazard models (Aalen, 1989) for the effect of a randomized treatment on a survival outcome, adjusting for auxiliary baseline covariates. We demonstrate that the Aalen least squares estimator of the treatment effect parameter is asymptotically unbiased, even when the hazard's dependence on time or on the auxiliary covariates is misspecified, and even away from the null hypothesis of no treatment effect. We moreover show that adjustment for auxiliary…
