COXSURV is a microcomputer program for survival analysis in clinical trials and epidemiology. It offers multivariate modeling and automatic analyses for confounder summarization, aiding in failure-time data interpretation.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Epidemiology
  • Clinical Trials

Background:

  • Survival and failure-time data are crucial in clinical trials and epidemiology.
  • Accurate statistical analysis is needed to interpret this data effectively.
  • Existing software may lack comprehensive features for multivariate modeling and data exploration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce COXSURV, a microcomputer program designed for proportional hazards multiple regression analysis.
  • To provide a user-friendly tool with advanced capabilities for survival data analysis.
  • To facilitate both clinical trial and retrospective epidemiological study analyses.

Main Methods:

  • Menu-driven interface with powerful variable factoring and data exploration.
  • Batch mode for automatic uni- or multivariate analyses and confounder summarization.
