In cmpp: Direct Parametric Inference for the Cumulative Incidence Function in Competing Risks

Fertility History of Rural Women in Shiraz

Description

This dataset includes fertility history information from a cross-sectional study of 652 women aged 15–49 years in rural areas of Shiraz, Iran. It was used in the article "A parametric method for cumulative incidence modeling with a new four-parameter log-logistic distribution" to model the cumulative incidence of live births and competing risks (stillborn fetus or abortion).

Usage

time

Time from marriage to event (live birth, competing event, or censoring).

Event

Event indicator: 0 = censored, 1 = live birth, 2 = stillborn fetus or abortion.

age

Age of the woman at the time of the event or censoring.
