Three easy-to-measure risk factors are shown that are associated with a wound healing, which should help clinicians understand the likelihood that a wound will heal and help those conducting clinical investigations to design better trials.

This article compares the different classes of approaches in terms of parameter interpretation and magnitude, standard errors of model parameters and Wald tests for covariate effects, and provides guidelines to the advantages and disadvantages of alternative approaches for analysing dependent binary responses.

The author uncovers two problems associated with surrogate interaction measures in this case: first, RERI and AP vary across strata defined by the covariates, whereas the fundamental interaction parameter is unvarying, which suggests that it is the measure of choice.

136 Citations1998J. K. Lindsey, Philippe Lambert
It is concluded that marginal models may sometimes be appropriate for descriptive observational studies, but should only be used with great care in causal experimental settings, such as clinical trials.

Methods are devised for estimating the parameters of a prospective logistic model in a case-control study with dichotomous response D that depends on a covariate X using a nonparametric mixture distribution to improve the efficiency and reduce the bias of the parameter estimates.

Bayesian inference Using Gibbs Sampling (a generic Gibbs sampler; BUGS) is used to fit GLMMs for multivariate Normal and binary phenotypes in nuclear families and it is shown that model parameters seem consistent and appear unbiased in smaller data sets.

Sources of variation in measures of reproductive performance in dairy cattle were evaluated using data collected from 3207 lactations in 1570 cows in 50 herds from five geographic regions of Reunion Island to suggest that minor departures from the assumption of normality did not have a substantial effect on the variance estimates.

This work describes a “wrapper” command, cme, that calls gllamm to estimate a single covariate measured with error, and discusses the case where several measurements are available and subsequently considers estimation when the measurement error variance is instead assumed known.

Adherence with the National Cancer Institute clinical practice guideline in this setting was disappointing and varied substantially by site, and factors amenable to change that may improve follow-up include good communication of results with patients and providing colposcopy at the site of primary care.

17 Citations2001Deborah Baker, Mark Hann
There was no systematic evidence of poorer service availability for PCGs with higher population need (the 'inverse care' law), and in these PCGs, there was no association between indicators of lack of capacity, such as single-handed practice, and levels of service provision.
