Abstract:
      组间生存曲线的比较是研究疾病预后的重要内容,目前常用Log-rank检验,但当生存曲线交叉或者两曲线后期开口较大,即比例假设不成立时,采用该法则失效。为此本文讨论适用这种情形的比较法。介绍两条生存曲线某固定点处生存率比较的5种(经典法、对数转换法、cloglog转换法、反正弦转换法和logit转换法)统计检验方法。通过实例分析发现,若用组间生存曲线整体检验的Log-rank检验法或Two-stage检验法均很难对两组生存率比较给出合理的结果,而选取几个固定点进行检验时,可得到固定时间点上组间生存率差异是否有统计学意义。在5种固定点时刻的检验方法中,以cloglog转换法最佳。
English Abstract:
      Comparison of survival curves between two groups is an important part of disease prognosis study. Log-rank test is commonly used,but when the two curves' later intersecting opening is too large,the proportion of assumptions is not established,thus the Log-rank test is ineffective. We introduces five statistical tests to compare two survival curves at a fixed time points:classic method,logarithmic transformation,cloglog transformation,arcsine transformation and logit transformation. Through the study we found that if the overall survival curves are difficult to compare between groups tested with Log-rank test method or Two-stage test method,the fixed time point test can effectively determine whether there was significant difference in survival rate at a fixed time point. Among the five fixed time point tests,cloglog transformation could give more precise result.
