  2. SECTION 6.6 Introduction to survival analysis 2 2 2 2

  3. Learning Outcome: Recognize concepts and methods used in survival analysis

  4. Survival Analysis • A technique to estimate the probability of “survival” (and also risk of disease) that takes into account incomplete subject follow-up. • Calculates risks over a time period with changing incidence rates. • Wide application in a variety of disciplines, such as engineering.

  5. Survival Analysis • With the Kaplan-Meier method (“product-limit method”), survival probabilities are calculated at each time interval in which an event occurs. • The cumulative survival over the entire follow-up period is derived from the product of all interval survival probabilities. • Cumulative incidence (risk) is the complement of cumulative survival.

  6. K-M formula: # of time intervals (Nk – Ak) S =  ------------- k = 1 Nk Where: k = sequence of time interval Nk = number of subjects at risk Ak = number of outcome events

  7. Survival Analysis • With the Kaplan-Meier method, subjects with incomplete follow-up (FU) are “censored” at their last known time of (FU). • An important assumption (often not upheld) is that censoring is “non-informative” (survival experience of subjects censored is the same as those with complete FU). • Non-fatal outcomes can also be studied.

  8. Survival Analysis • The Life-Table method is conceptually similar to the Kaplan-Meier method. • The primary difference is that survival probabilities are determined at pre-determined intervals (i.e. years), rather than when events occur.

  10. Learning Outcome: Calculate and interpret survival analysis estimates of incidence

  11. Survival Analysis Example: • Assume a study of 10 subjects conducted over a 2-year period. • A total of 4 subjects die. • Another 2 subjects have incomplete follow-up (study withdrawal or late study entry). What is the probability of 2-year survival, and the corresponding risk of 2-year death?

  12. Interpretation: What is the 2-year risk of death?

  13. Interpretation: What is the 1-year risk of death?

  14. Survival Analysis (Practice) Example: • Assume a study of 12 subjects conducted over a 3-year period. • A total of 5 subjects die. • Another 2 subjects have incomplete follow-up (study withdrawal or late study entry). What is the probability of 3-year survival, and the corresponding risk of 3-year death?

  17. SECTION 6.8 Logistic Regression Model 22 22 22 22 22 22

  18. Learning Outcome: Recognize components and interpret parameters from the logistic regression model

  19. Logistic Regression Analysis • Conceptually similar to linear regression with dichotomous outcome. • Outcome is usually coded as “0” or “1”, with “1” referring to presence of the outcome in interest (although SAS assumes 0). • p represents the probability that the outcome is present (e.g. value of 1), given particular covariate values of an individual

  20. Logistic Regression Analysis • Multiple logistic regression model can be written in different ways: where:p = expected probability that outcome is present x1 through xp= independent variables b0 through bp = regression coefficients

  21. Logistic Regression Analysis b1 = change in the expected log odds in the outcome relative to a 1-unit change in xi holding other predictors constant Anti-log of regression coefficient, exp(bi), produces odds ratio

  22. Logistic Regression Analysis Example: Estimate the risk of incident CVD among persons defined as obese. p { } ln = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + … bpxp 1 – p p { } ln = -2.367 + 0.658(Obesity) = log odds exp(0.658) = 1.93 (odds ratio) 1 – p

  23. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation to the predictors listed below. p { } ln = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + … bpxp 1 – p Write out the logistic regression equation below. (Practice) p { } ln = 1 – p

  24. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation To the predictors listed below. p { } ln = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + … bpxp 1 – p Write out the logistic regression equation below. p { } ln = -3.065 + 0.036(age) – 0.53(female) + 0.029(BMI) – 0.001 (physical activity) + 1.067(diabetes) 1 – p

  25. p { } ln = b0 + b1x1 + b2x2 + … bpxp 1 – p So, the predicted odds of an individual being on a statin drug = = EXP[(-3.065 + 0.036(age) – 0.53(female) + 0.029(BMI) – 0.001 (physical activity) + 1.067(diabetes)] AND Predicted Probability = Predicted odds / (1 + predicted odds).

  26. Estimate the predicted odds and probability of an individual being on a statin drug with the following characteristics: Age=55; male; BMI=31.4; physical activity level=2; diabetic = EXP[(-3.065 + 0.036(55) – 0.53(0) + 0.029(31.4) – 0.001 (2) + 1.067(1)] = exp(0.896) = 2.446 Predicted Probability = odds / (1 + predicted odds) = 2.446 / (3.446) = 0.71

  27. Estimate the predicted odds and probability of an individual being on a statin drug with the following characteristics: PRACTICE Age=52; female; BMI=29.5; physical activity level=3; non-diabetic = Predicted Probability = odds / (1 + predicted odds) =

  28. Estimate the predicted odds and probability of an individual being on a statin drug with the following characteristics: Age=52; female; BMI=29.5; physical activity level=3; non-diabetic = EXP[(-3.065 + 0.036(52) – 0.53(1) + 0.029(29.5) – 0.001 (3) + 1.067(0)] = exp(-0.8645) = 0.42 Predicted Probability = odds / (1 + predicted odds) = 0.42 / (1.42) = 0.296

  29. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation to the predictors listed below. Produce odds ratio estimates of statin use for the following (Practice): Age (per year) = Age per 5 years) = Female gender = History of diabetes =

  30. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation To the predictors listed below. Produce odds ratio estimates of statin use for the following: Age (per year) = exp(0.036) = 1.04 Age per 10 years) = exp(10 x 0.036) = 1.43 Female gender = exp(-0.530) = 0.59 History of diabetes = exp(1.067) = 2.91

  31. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation To the predictors listed below. Interpret odds ratio estimates of statin use for the following: Age per 10 years) = exp(10 x 0.036) = 1.43 History of diabetes = exp(1.067) = 2.91

  32. Example: Estimate the log odds of being on a statin drug in relation To the predictors listed below. Interpret odds ratio estimates of statin use for the following: Age per 10 years) = exp(10 x 0.036) = 1.43 For every 10 year increase in age, the adjusted odds of being on a statin drug increases 1.43-fold History of diabetes = exp(1.067) = 2.91 Persons with diabetes have 2.91 times higher odds of being on a statin drug compared to persons without diabetes
