There is a real need for a book that presents an overview of methodology used in the interpretation and analysis of competing risks, with a focus on practical applications to medical problems, and incorporating modern techniques. This book fills that need by presenting the most up-to-date methodology, in a way that can be readily understood, and applied, by the practitioner.Statistics in practice.Competing risksCompeting risks.519.2Pintilie Melania1658864MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910830745003321Competing risks4013156UNINA
