On the interpretation of risk and rate advancement periods
Discacciati, Bellavia, Orsini, Greenland · 2016 · International Journal of Epidemiology 45(1):278-284
What this work gives Aellic
Rate advancement periods are often misread as differences in mean survival time or as a shift of the survival curve; they are neither, and they are highly sensitive to how the dependence of rates on age is modelled. Only the abstract was read.
Where this sits in the engine
This work is on the register, but nothing computes with it today, mostly because the feature it belongs to has not been built yet. It is listed so the numbers on the overview do not claim more than they carry.
