August 13, 2025 The authors looked at a method called survival average causal effect (SACE) for dealing with situations when continuous outcome measurements are truncated by death and cause problems for estimating unbiased treatment effects in randomized controlled...

July 2, 2025 The importance of evaluating a longitudinal biomarker in survival analysis for overall or disease-free survival can be important. The authors have defined a new joint model for a longitudinal biomarker and a time-to-event endpoint, taking into account...

April 23, 2025 The authors have discussed a sample size calculation for restricted mean survival time (RMST) in augmented tests. The RMST was developed as an alternative measure of survival that is non-parametric and does not reply on parametric constraints. It had...

April 9, 2025 The authors have generalized the pseudo-observations approach to bivariate survival data subject to right censoring. Pseudo-observations approach was originally developed by Anderson (2003) for estimating covariates effect on time-to-event data. This...

March 26, 2025 Their primary goal of their paper was to introduce a novel frailty model based on the weighted Lindley (WL) distribution for modeling clustered survival data. They used the weighted Lindley as the frailty distribution. This was a two parameter...
