Joint Modeling of Competing Risks Survival and Longitudinal Data.This book provides an overview of the emerging topics in biostatistical theories and methods through their applications to evidence-based global health research and decision-making. It brings together some of the top scholars engaged in biostatistical method development on global health to highlight and describe recent advances in evidence-based global health applications. The volume is composed of five main parts: data harmonization and analysis; systematic review and statistical meta-analysis; spatial-temporal modeling and disease mapping; Bayesian statistical modeling; and statistical methods for longitudinal data or survival data. It is designed to be illuminating and valuable to both expert biostatisticians and to health researchers engaged in methodological applications in evidence-based global health research. It is particularly relevant to countries where global health research is being rigorously conducted.Emerging topics in statistics and biostatisticsStatisticsBiologyBiometriathubLlibres electrònicsthubStatistics.Biology.Biometria170570.15195Chen Ding-GengManda Samuel O.
