TY - JOUR ID - 1369393 AU - Putter, H - Fiocco, M - Geskus, RB PY - 2007 TI - Tutorial in biostatistics: Competing risks and multi-state models JF - Statistics in Medicine VL - 26 IS - 11 SP - 2389-2430 EP - 2389-2430 PB - JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD SN - 02776715 KW - competing risks KW - multi-state model KW - survival analysis KW - prognostic factors KW - prediction N2 - Standard survival data measure the time span from some time origin until the occurrence of one type of event. If several types of events occur, a model describing progression to each of these competing risks is needed. Multi-state models generalize competing risks models by also describing transitions to intermediate events. Methods to analyze such models have been developed over the last two decades. Fortunately, most of the analyzes can be performed within the standard statistical packages, but may require some extra effort with respect to data preparation and programming. This tutorial aims to review statistical methods for the analysis of competing risks and multi-state models. Although some conceptual issues are covered, the emphasis is on practical issues like data preparation, estimation of the effect of covariates, and estimation of cumulative incidence functions and state and transition probabilities. Examples of analysis with standard software are shown. Copyright (C) 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. ER -
