A major factor in the uptake of new statistical methods is the availability of user-friendly software implementations. One attractive feature of Stata is that users can write their own commands and release them to other users via Statistica...

Hazard ratios can be approximated by data extracted from published Kaplan-Meier curves. Recently, this curve approach has been extended beyond hazard-ratio approximation with the capability of constructing time-to-event data at the individu...

Since Royston and Altman's 1994 publication (Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series C 43: 429-467), fractional polynomials have steadily gained popularity as a tool for flexible parametric modeling of regression relationships. In ...
Reference-based sensitivity analysis via multiple imputation for longitudinal trials with protocol deviation [0.03%]
基于参考的敏感性分析通过多重插补处理纵向试验中的协议偏离问题

Randomized controlled trials provide essential evidence for the evaluation of new and existing medical treatments. Unfortunately, the statistical analysis is often complicated by the occurrence of protocol deviations, which mean we cannot a...

In a recent article, Royston (2015, Stata Journal 15: 275-291) introduced the approximate cumulative distribution (acd) transformation of a continuous covariate x as a route toward modeling a sigmoid relationship between x and an outcome va...
A smooth covariate rank transformation for use in regression models with a sigmoid dose-response function [0.03%]

We consider how to represent sigmoid-type regression relationships in a practical and parsimonious way. A pure sigmoid relationship has an asymptote at both ends of the range of a continuous covariate. Curves with a single asymptote are als...
Density-based empirical likelihood procedures for testing symmetry of data distributions and K-sample comparisons [0.03%]

In practice, parametric likelihood-ratio techniques are powerful statistical tools. In this article, we propose and examine novel and simple distribution-free test statistics that efficiently approximate parametric likelihood ratios to anal...

Concentration indices are frequently used to measure inequality in one variable over the distribution of another. Most commonly, they are applied to the measurement of socioeconomic-related inequality in health. We introduce a user-written ...
Model specification and bootstrapping for multiply imputed data: An application to count models for the frequency of alcohol use [0.03%]

Stata's mi commands provide powerful tools to conduct multiple imputation in the presence of ignorable missing data. In this article, I present Stata code to extend the capabilities of the mi commands to address two areas of statistical inf...
Analysis of partially observed clustered data using generalized estimating equations and multiple imputation [0.03%]

Clustered data arise in many settings, particularly within the social and biomedical sciences. As an example, multiple-source reports are commonly collected in child and adolescent psychiatric epidemiologic studies where researchers use var...
