1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The case-cohort design is an economical approach to estimate the effect of risk factors on the survival outcome when collecting exposure information or covariates on all patients is expensive in a large cohort study. Variables often have group structure such as categorical variables and highly correlated continuous variables. The existing literature for case-cohort data is limited to identifying non-zero variables at individual level only. In this article, we propose a bi-level variable selection method to select non-zero group and within-group variables for case-cohort data when variables have group structure. The proposed method allows the number of variables to diverge as the sample size increases. The asymptotic properties of the estimator including bi-level variable selection consistency and the asymptotic normality are shown. We also conduct simulations to compare our proposed method with some existing method and apply them to the Busselton Health data.
