On Modelling Minimal Disease Activity.
OBJECTIVE: To explore methods for statistical modelling of minimal disease activity (MDA) based on data from intermittent clinic visits. METHODS: The analysis was based on a 2-state model. Comparisons were made between analyses...

A multistate model for events defined by prolonged observation.
Vernon T Farewell, Li Su

Time-to-event and similar analyses can be problematic if the event of interest is operationally defined by some condition being true for a prolonged period of time. A particular example of this, remission in psoriatic arthritis...

The versatility of multi-state models for the analysis of longitudinal data with unobservable features.
Multi-state models provide a convenient statistical framework for a wide variety of medical applications characterized by multiple events and longitudinal data. We illustrate this through four examples. The potential value of...

Axial involvement in psoriatic arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a heterogenous, chronic, inflammatory musculoskeletal disease that can lead to peripheral and axial damage and loss of function. Axial involvement occurs in 25% to 70% of patients with PsA, varying...

Mixture distributions in multi-state modelling
In many studies, interest lies in determining whether members of the study population will undergo a particular event of interest. Such scenarios are often termed 'mover-stayer' scenarios, and interest lies in modelling two...

Bias in 2-part mixed models for longitudinal semicontinuous data.
Semicontinuous data in the form of a mixture of zeros and continuously distributed positive values frequently arise in biomedical research. Two-part mixed models with correlated random effects are an attractive approach to...

A joint modelling approach for multistate processes subject to resolution and under intermittent observations.
Sean Yiu, Brian Tom
Mar 14, 2018
Multistate processes provide a convenient framework when interest lies in characterising the transition intensities between a set of defined states. If, however, there is an unobserved event of interest (not known if and when...
