Bias and precision of methods for estimating the difference in restricted mean survival time from an individual patient data meta-analysis
Abstract Background The difference in restricted mean survival time ( rmstD t ∗ $$ rmstD\left({t}^{\ast}\right) $$ ), the area between two survival curves up to time horizon t ∗ $$ {t}^{\ast } $$ , is often used in cost-effectiveness analyses to estimate the treatment effect in randomized controlled...
