Discrete time interval (30 days)

Standard error of survival function: Greenwood formula With S t = survival function R t = risk set q t = probability of event p t = survival probability (probability of NO event)

Assume 100 respondents (R = risk set) Probability of event (q): 0.10 => survival probability (p): 0.90 Var(p) = pq/R = 0.9*0.1/100 = SQRT(0.0009) = 0.03 p 2 q/(pR) = 0.81*0.1/(0.9*100) = SQRT(0.0009) = survivors experience event. Prob of event is 15/90 = Risk set: 90 (= 100*0.9) Prob of surviving second interval: S2 = 0.9*0.833=0.75 Var(S2) = * [0.1/(0.9*100) /(0.8333*90)] =

Standard error of (hazard) rate: With r t = hazard rate

SPSS output

A method for the nonparametric estimation of the survival function (1958) Also called product-limit estimator The risk set is calculated at every point in time where at least one event occurred. Hence all episodes must be sorted according to their ending times. It is a staircase function with a. Location of drop is random (time at event) b. Size of drop depends on censoring The Kaplan-Meier estimator

Kaplan-Meier estimator -->

Kaplan-Meier estimator Exact time of failure and censoring are known Where Y(x i ) is the risk set (individuals at risk just before time t (time at event))and D i is the failure indicator (1 in case of failure)

Hence all episodes must be sorted according to their ending times. It is a staircase function with a. Location of drop is random (time at event) b. Size of drop is 1/risk set (number at risk: count of persons alive before the death Easier to generalise to multistate situations The Nelson-Aalen estimator

The fetal life table 9564 pregnancies identified retrospectively from urine tests as well as first prenatal care visits at three Kaiser Permanente clinics in San Francisco Bay area during 10-month period in Twin and triplet pregnancies, pregnancies with less than 2 days follow-up, and few other pregnancies were omitted => 9055 pregnancies. Of these, 103 withdrew during follow-up (pregnancy outcome not known), 6629 resulted in live births, 549 in spontaneous fetal loss (including 27 ectopic pregnancies), and 1774 induced abortion. 2-day lag was used to avoid bias arising when women selectively report for medical care because of threatened abortion. Many of these women miscarry within 2 days (selection!). Inclusion would overestimate the risk of abortion! Measurement issues: onset of pregnancy (date of last menstrual period) and pregnancy outcome. 459 women entered observation in week 5 of gestation (days 0-6 after last menstrual period = week 0; days = week 5; days = week 44) Goldhaber and Fireman (1991)

Application and confusion (discussion) Miller and Homan (1994) “Determining transition probabilities: confusion and suggestions”, Medical Decision Making, 14(1):??? (based on Kleinbaum et al.). Terminology used in this paper is confusing (and wrong!) a. Distinguish between rates and risk Rate (incidence rate): occurrences (incidences; new cases) over exposure. Exposure is measured by ‘summing each subject’s time exposed to the possibility of transiting’ (includes censored cases).. Instantaneous incidence rate (‘also known as the hazard function’). Average incidence rate (also known as the ‘incidence density’ [ID]) Density  rate

Application and confusion (discussion) Risk: Risk used to denote probability. Three methods for estimating risk: 1. Simple cumulative method: new cases / number of disease-free individuals at beginning of interval (no censoring or withdrawal): I/N 0 where I is number of new cases and N 0 is the number of disease-free individuals at t=0. 2. Actuarial (life-table) method: new cases / number of disease-free individuals at beginning of interval minus half of the number of withdrawals: I/[N 0 -W/2] where W is number of withdrawals 3. Density method: uses age-specific incidence densities (e.g. rates) to estimate the risk for given age or time interval: P(0,t) = 1 - exp[-ID*t] where ID is the average rate and t is the elapsed time. Rates are translated into probabilities. = risk set
