If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind.  To have peace of mind, you must first act according to reason. 

With reason, you will have peace of mind, and then the whole family will be at peace.

Survival Analysis

Censoring and Truncation

Page 3: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis3

Abbreviated Outline

Mechanisms that can lead to incomplete observation of a survival time are discussed.

Page 4: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis4

Difficulty of Survival Analysis

The possibility that some individuals may not be observed for the full time to failure.

Two mechanisms that can lead to incomplete observation of failure time are censoring and truncation.

Censoring and Truncation

A censored observation arises when the exact failure time is unknown, but can only be determined to lie within a certain interval.

A truncated observation is one which is unobservable due to a selection process inherent in the study design.

Typical Censoring Mechanisms

Right censoringType I censoringType II censoringRandom censoring

Left censoring Double censoring (a data set

containing left & right censoring data) Interval censoring

Page 7: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis7

Right Censoring

Observation begins at the defined time origin and ceases before the event of interest is realized.The survival time is only known to

exceed a certain value.Incomplete nature of the observation

occurs in the right tail of the time axis.

Page 8: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind.

Notation

Yi = the survival time of subject i.

Y1, …, Yn are i.i.d. survival times.

Ci = the censor time of subject i (or say potential observation duration).

Right Censoring: Type I

The censor times, Cis, are fixed. The event of interest is observed only

if it occurs prior to some prespecified time.

Y1, …,Yn are assumed to be independent of the mechanism generating the fixed censor times.

Example: Diet-tumor Study

A laboratory investigator is interested in the relationship between diet and the development of tumors.

3 diet groups: low-fat, saturated-fat, unsaturated-fat diets

30 rates per group An identical amount of tumor cells were injected

into a foot pad of each rat, and the tumor-free times of the rats were recorded.

The study was terminated after 200 days.

Page 12: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis12

Example: Diet-tumor Study

Tumor-free times (days) for the low-fat group are as follows:140, 177, 50, 65, 86, 153, 181, 191, 77, 84, 87, 56, 66, 73, 119, 140and 200+ for the other 14 rats.“+” denotes a censored observation.

Q: What are Cis?

Example: HIV+ Study

Subjects were enrolled from 1/1/1989 to 12/31/1991.

The study ended on 12/31/1995. The event of interest is death due to

AIDS or AIDS-related complications.

Example: HIV+ Study

Study time: calendar time period

Patient time: the length of time period that a patient spends in the study

Right Censoring: Type II

Arises when n subjects start on study at the same time, with the study terminating once r failures have been observed, where r is some pre-determined integer (r<n).

Experiments involving type II censoring are often used in testing of equipment life.

04/19/23survival analysis18

Example

A life test of aircraft components cannot wait until all components have failed.

Others?

04/19/23survival analysis19

Right Censoring: Random

Arises when other competing events cause subjects to be removed from the study.

Page 20: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis20

Right Censoring: Random

Some events which cause the subject to be randomly censored, with respect to the event of interest, includePatient withdrawal from a clinical trialDeath due to some cause other than

the one of interestMigration of human population

Page 21: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis21

Right Censoring: Random

The censoring times Ci are random variables assumed to be independent of each other and of the survival times Yi, i=1,…,n.

Often, the censoring scheme in biomedical studies is a combination of random and type I censoring.

Left Censoring

Arises when the event of interest has already occurred for the individual before observation time.The survival time is only known to be

less than a certain value.Incomplete nature of the observation

occurs in the left tail of the time axis.

Left Censoring

Left censoring is common when the measurement apparatus has a low resolution threshold.

Example: Marijuana

Q: When did you first use marijuana?

Answer:

1. Exact age

2. I have never used it

3. Cannot recall when the first time was

Interval Censoring

A more general type of censoring occurs when failure is known to occur only within an interval.

A generalization of left and right censoring.

Example: Cancer Recurrence

Survival (failure) time is the time to recurrence of colorectal cancer, following surgical removal of primary tumor.

After surgery, patients are examined every 3 months to determine if cancer has recurred.

Truncation

Truncation is a condition which screens out certain subjects so that the investigator will not be aware of their existence.

For truncated data, only subjects who satisfy the condition are observed by the investigator.

The condition is usually associated with a truncation time

Page 32: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis32

Truncation Time

Truncation time for individual i, denoted ti, is the time of the occurrence of the event truncating individual i.

Page 33: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis33

Left Truncation

Arises when the condition is that the truncation time must occur prior to the event of interest.

Only individuals with Yi > ti are observed.

Left truncated data are rarely seen in medical research; it is often due to the threshold of an apparatus.

Page 34: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

Example: astronomical data

With a given telescope, we can only detect a very distant stellar object which is brighter than some limiting flux — the object is left-truncate if it lies beyond detection by our telescope – we cannot tell if the object is even there if we cannot see it.

Example: Channing House

Channing House is a retirement center in Palo Alto, CA

All the residence were covered by a health care program provided by the center

Ages at death of 462 individuals who were in residence during Jan 1964 to July 1975 are recorded

Ages at which individuals entered the retirement center are also recorded

04/19/23survival analysis36

Example: Channing House

What is the time and condition of truncation?

The problem can be solved by revising our target population.

Page 37: If you want peace, you must first have peace of mind. 

04/19/23survival analysis37

Right Truncation

Arises when only individuals who have experienced the event of interest are included in the sample.

That is, ti = the end date of study and only individuals with Yi < ti are observed.

Example: AIDS

Only those who developed AIDS were asked for their infection dates

Data: infection and induction times for 258 adults who were infected with AIDS virus and developed AIDS by 6/30/1986 Time in years infected by AIDS virus (from

4/1/1978) Waiting time to the development of AIDS

(from the date of infection)Q: What is the time and condition of truncation?
