Bayesian semiparametric inference for multivariate doubly-interval-censored data
Description :
Based on a data set obtained in a dental longitudinal study, conducted in
Flanders (Belgium), the joint time to caries distribution of permanent first
molars was modeled as a function of covariates. This involves an analysis of
multivariate continuous doubly-interval-censored data since: (i) the e...

Description :
Fitting models to incomplete categorical data requires more care than fitting models to the complete data counterparts, not only in the setting of missing data that are non-randomly missing, but even in the familiar missing at random setting. Various aspects of this point of view have been considere...

Description :
A non-parametric implementation of the bivariate Dale model (BDM) is presented as an extension of the generalized additive model (GAM) of Hastie and Tibshirani. The original BDM is an example of a bivariate generalized linear model. In this paper smoothing is introduced on the marginal as well as on...

Continuous retrograde blood cardioplegia is associated with lower hospital mortality after heart valve surgery
Description :
Objective: Myocardial preservation studies comparing blood and crystalloid cardioplegia techniques were almost exclusively performed on patients undergoing coronary bypass, and they were unable to show a difference in hospital mortality. We investigated possible factors, including cardioplegia techn...
