Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover, reprint, xiii + 235 pages, NOT ex-library. Printed in the UK. Clean and bright with unmarked text and firm binding, free of inscriptions and stamps. Published without a dust jacket. -- Statistical science plays an increasingly important role in medical research. Over the last few decades, many new statistical methods have been developed which have particular relevance for medical researchers and, with the appropriate software now easily available, these techniques can be used almost routinely to great effect. These innovative methods include survival analysis, generalized additive models and Bayesian methods. The book covers these essential new techniques at an accessible technical level, its main focus being not on the theory but on the effective practical application of these methods in medical research. Modern Medical Statistics is an indispensable practical guide for medical researchers and medical statisticians as well as an ideal text for advanced courses in medical statistics and public health. -- Contents: 1. Generalized Linear Model [Introduction; Generalized linear model: a brief non-technical account; Examples of the application of generalized linear models; Poisson regression; Overdispersion; Summary]; 2. Generalized Linear Models for Longitudinal Data [Introduction; Marginal and conditional regression models; Marginal and conditional regression models for continuous responses with Gaussian errors; Marginal and conditional regression models for non-normal responses; Summary]; 3. Missing Values, Drop-outs, Compliance and Intention-to-Treat [Introduction; Missing values and drop-outs; Modelling longitudinal data containing ignorable missing values; Non-ignorable missing values; Compliance and intention-to-treat; Summary]; 4.

Bayesian Methods and Meta-analysis [Introduction; Bayesian methods; Meta-analysis; Summary]; 9. Exact Inference for Categorical Data [Introduction; Small expected values in contingency table, Yates' correction and Fisher's exact test; Examples of the use of exact p-values; Logistic regression and conditional logistic regression for sparse data; Summary]; 10.
