Estimation of Survival with a Combination of Prevalent and Incident Cases in the Presence of Length Bias
In studying natural history of a disease, incident studies provide the best quality estimates; in contrast, prevalent studies introduce a sampling bias, which, if the onset time of the disease follows a stationary Poisson process, is called length bias. When both types of data are available, combini...
