Effect of fractional urea clearance on survival of hemodialysis patients in relation to gender
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2008-01-01)
Many studies have demonstrated the relationship between dialysis dose and survival. Global mortality is similar among men and women; however, the influence of dialysis dose in the survival could be more intensive between ...
Survival of patients with vulvar cancer
(Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2010)
Seed and seedling survival of some climber species in a southeast Brazilian tropical forest
(Assoc Tropical Biology IncLawrenceEUA, 2002)
Survival of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris in the phyllosphere and rhizosphere of weeds
(2017-12-01)
The phyllosphere and rhizosphere of weeds are important niches for phytobacterial survival. The absence of information in Brazil regarding Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), the causal agent of black rot in ...
A hands-on approach for fitting long-term survival models under the GAMLSS framework
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010)
In many data sets from clinical studies there are patients insusceptible to the occurrence of the event of interest. Survival models which ignore this fact are generally inadequate. The main goal of this paper is to describe ...
A multivariate survival model induced by discrete frailty
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2020-08-11)
Frailty models are generally used to model heterogeneity and dependence between individuals. The distribution of the frailty variable is often assumed to be continuous. However, there are situations where a discretely-distributed ...
Do individuals in better condition survive for longer? Field survival estimates according to male alternative reproductive tactics and sex
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2010)
There is a gap in terms of the supposed survival differences recorded in the field according to individual condition. This is partly due to our inability to assess survival in the wild. Here we applied modern statistical ...
Modelling post-release survival of reintroduced Red-billed Curassows Crax blumenbachii
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-07-01)
Modelling post-release survival probabilities of reintroduced birds can help inform 'soft-release' strategies for avian reintroductions that use captive-bred individuals. We used post-release radiotelemetry data to estimate ...
Nest Survival and Predation in Blue-Fronted Parrots Amazona aestiva: Effects of Nesting Behaviour and Cavity Characteristics
(Nederlandse Ornithologische Unie, 2016-10)
In this study we analyse factors affecting nest survival in Blue-fronted Parrots Amazona aestiva breeding in the Chaco region of northern Argentina. We combined temporal and environmental variables in order to determine ...
