Abstract:
An introduction to event history analysis via multi-state models in given. Examples include the two-state model for survival analysis, the competing risks and illness-death models, and models for bone marrow transplantation. Statistical model specification via transition intensities and likelihood inference is introduced. Consequences of observational patterns are discussed, and a real example concerning mortality and bleeding episodes in a liver cirrhosis trial is discussed.
