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

We propose a nonparametric bivariate time-varying coefficient model for longitudinal measurements with the occurrence of a terminal event that is subject to right censoring. The time-varying coefficients capture the longitudinal trajectories of covariate effects along with both the followup time and the residual lifetime. The proposed model extends the parametric conditional approach given terminal event time in recent literature, and thus avoids potential model misspecification. We consider a kernel smoothing method for estimating regression coefficients in our model and use cross-validation for bandwidth selection, applying undersmoothing in the final analysis to eliminate the asymptotic bias of the kernel estimator. We show that the kernel estimates follow a finite-dimensional normal distribution asymptotically under mild regularity conditions, and provide an easily computed sandwich covariance matrix estimator. We conduct extensive simulations that show desirable performance of the proposed approach, and apply the method to analyzing the medical cost data for patients with end-stage renal disease.
