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

In observational/field studies, competing risks and left-truncation may co-exist, yielding 'left-truncated competing risks' settings. Under the assumption of independent competing risks, parametric estimation methods were developed for left-truncated competing risks data. However, competing risks may be dependent in real applications. In this paper, we propose a Bayesian estimator for both independent competing risks and copula-based dependent competing risks models under left-truncation. The simulations show that the Bayesian estimator for the copula-based dependent risks model yields the desired performance when competing risks are dependent. We also comprehensively explore the choice of the prior distributions (Gamma, Inverse-Gamma, Uniform, half Normal and half Cauchy) and hyperparameters via simulations. Finally, two real datasets are analyzed to demonstrate the proposed estimators.
