在过去的十年中,随着定量分析在医学研究中的广泛应用,从实验设计到复杂统计分析的各个阶段,统计学家和医生之间的密切合作变得至关重要。另一方面,易于使用的统计软件包允许临床医生自己进行基本的统计分析。由于他们最常用的软件不能进行深入的竞争风险分析,我们建议为R统计软件提供一个附加软件包。我们提供了从互联网上下载它的所有说明,并说明如何使用它进行分析的一个样本数据集的患者接受造血干细胞移植治疗急性白血病。
In the last decade with widespread use of quantitative analyses in medical research, close co-operation between statisticians and physicians has become essential from the experimental design through all phases of complex statistical analysis. On the other hand, easy-to-use statistical packages allow clinicians to perform basic statistical analyses themselves. Since the software they most commonly use does not perform in depth competing risk analysis, we recommend an add-on package for the R statistical software. We provide all the instructions for downloading it from internet and illustrate how to use it for analysis of a sample dataset of patients who underwent haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for acute leukaemia.
