Abstract:
Competing risks models can be used to compare the effect of risk factors for different causes of death or subtypes of a disease. However, sometimes more than one outcome classification is available and if two such classifications are correlated, one may speculate whether differences in the effect of a risk factor according to one classification simply may be an effect of differences according to the other correlated classification. We introduce in this paper the new concept of multivariate competing risks to test formally such a hypothesis.
