A flexible parametric approach for analyzing arbitrarily censored data that are potentially subject to left truncation under the proportional hazards model

Prabhashi W. Withana Gamage et al.

Summary: The proportional hazards model is widely used for analyzing lifetime data in epidemiological studies. This paper proposes a novel unified PH model that can handle censored outcomes and left truncated data, and develops an expectation-maximization algorithm for model fitting.

A flexible parametric accelerated failure time model and the extension to time-dependent acceleration factors

Michael J. Crowther et al.

Summary: In this article, a general parametric AFT model is proposed, with restricted cubic splines used to model the baseline for greater flexibility. The model is extended to accommodate time-dependent acceleration factors, allowing for delayed entry and time-dependent covariates. Simulation evaluations show substantial improvements compared to standard parametric AFT models. Analytical and simulation results also demonstrate the collapsibility of AFT models, indicating their suitability for causal inference. The methods are illustrated using a dataset of breast cancer patients, and efficient, user-friendly software packages in Stata and R are provided.

Accelerated failure time models for recurrent event data analysis and joint modeling

Shahedul A. Khan et al.

Summary: Two common problems encountered in survival analysis are recurrent event data analysis and joint modeling, for which the proportional hazards (PH) family provides an attractive modeling paradigm. When the PH assumption fails, an accelerated failure time (AFT) model can be considered for joint modeling. The proposed methodology involves computational algorithms for statistical inference and a software package to fit these models, demonstrated using simulated and real data.

COVID-19 in the 47 countries of the WHO African region: a modelling analysis of past trends and future patterns

Joseph Waogodo Cabore et al.

Summary: COVID-19 has impacted the African region significantly. Through a comprehensive model, it is estimated that the number of infections in the region from Jan 2020 to Dec 2021 was 505.6 million, with only 1.4% reported. Deaths are estimated at 439,500, with 35.3% related to COVID-19. By the end of 2022, infections are predicted to remain high, but deaths will decrease significantly.

Amoud Class for Hazard-Based and Odds-Based Regression Models: Application to Oncology Studies

Abdisalam Hassan Muse et al.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to propose a novel, general, tractable, fully parametric class for hazard-based and odds-based models of survival regression for the analysis of censored lifetime data, named as the Amoud class (AM) of models. This class is broad enough to cover a number of widely used models, including the proportional hazard model, the general hazard model, the proportional odds model, the general odds model, the accelerated hazards model, the accelerated odds model, and the accelerated failure time model, as well as combinations of these. This study demonstrates the utility of the proposed model by applying it to a right-censored lifetime dataset with crossing survival curves.

The Extended Exponential Weibull Distribution: Properties, Inference, and Applications to Real-Life Data

Adam Braima S. Mastor et al.

Summary: A novel version of the exponential Weibull distribution, known as the extended exponential Weibull (ExEW) distribution, is developed and examined using the Lehmann alternative II (LAII) generating technique. The basic mathematical properties of the new distribution are derived, and the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) technique is used to estimate the unknown parameters. The performance of the estimators is further assessed using Monte Carlo simulation, and the applicability of the new distribution is demonstrated using two real-world data sets.

Multi-parameter regression survival modelling with random effects

Fatima-Zahra Jaouimaa et al.

Summary: This article discusses a parametric modelling approach for survival data, where covariates can enter the model through multiple distributional parameters. The authors extend the model to handle multivariate survival data by introducing random effects and estimate the model using an h-likelihood approach. The results of the study demonstrate that the proposed modelling approach is flexible, robust, and performs well in both simulation studies and real data applications.

Bayesian and frequentist approach for the generalized log-logistic accelerated failure time model with applications to larynx-cancer patients

Abdisalam Hassan Muse et al.

Summary: The paper introduces several commonly used distributions for modeling survival data, including the log-normal, log-logistic, and Weibull distributions. The authors propose a more flexible parametric model, the generalized log-logistic distribution, which can accommodate both monotone and non-monotone failure rate functions. They formulate an accelerated failure time model based on this distribution and demonstrate parameter estimation using Bayesian and frequentist approaches. The proposed model is evaluated through extensive simulation studies and the analysis of real-life survival data, showing its effectiveness in modeling survival data with various hazard rate shapes.

An Extended Weibull Regression for Censored Data: Application for COVID-19 in Campinas, Brazil

Gabriela M. Rodrigues et al.

Summary: This study examines the factors that increase the risk of death in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 using the odd log-logistic regression model and provides new mathematical properties of this distribution. The simulation results demonstrate the consistency of the estimates and suggest that the proposed model is efficient in identifying the determinant variables for individual survival.

Bayesian and Frequentist Approaches for a Tractable Parametric General Class of Hazard-Based Regression Models: An Application to Oncology Data

Abdisalam Hassan Muse et al.

Summary: In this study, a general hazard regression model is proposed for censored lifetime data with covariates. This model includes well-known sub-classes such as the accelerated failure time model and the proportional hazard model. By separating the covariate's effect into a relative hazard ratio and a time-scale change, the model is more adaptive and can provide more accurate survival forecasts. The nested structure of the models offers a tool for identifying the most appropriate model for a given dataset.

A Weibull-Beta Prime Distribution to Model COVID-19 Data with the Presence of Covariates and Censored Data

Elisangela C. Biazatti et al.

Summary: Motivated by the growing popularity of the beta prime distribution, this study presents a more flexible generalized distribution to fit symmetrical or asymmetrical and bimodal data, as well as non-monotonic failure rate. The Weibull-beta prime distribution is defined and its structural properties are examined. Maximum likelihood estimation is used to estimate the parameters, and a new regression model is proposed. Simulations demonstrate the consistency of the estimators, and the application to censored COVID-19 data confirms the adequacy of the models.
