September 13, 2023 In their paper, the authors, Wang et al focused on estimation of casual effects of a treatment on survival outcomes with censoring with propensity score (PS) adjustment. They also used alternative measures of survival like restricted average causal...

May 24, 2023 The authors developed a semiparametric maximum likelihood estimation procedure via a kernel smoothed-aided expectation-maximization algorithm. The variances for this were estimated through weighted bootstrap. The authors focused on this for the...
