Generalizing the standard frailty models of survival analysis, we propose to model frailty as a weighted Lévy process. Hence, the frailty of an individual is not a fixed quantity, but develops over...

Survival analysis as used in the medical context is focused on the concepts of survival function and hazard rate, the latter of these being the basis both for the Cox regression model and of the...

Objective: To use familial patterns of recurrence of pre-eclampsia to investigate whether paternal genes expressed in the fetus contribute to the mother’s risk of pre-eclampsia and whether...
