One way of examining trade-offs between quantity and quality of life (QOL) is to combine them into a single measure such as quality-adjusted life year (QALY). If censoring occurs, then estimation presents some difficulties. One approach, known as Q-TWiST, is to define a series of health states, use
In clinical studies, we often consider not only patients' survival time, but also their quality of life. Quality adjusted life years (QALY) is an integrated measure of medical outcome that combines a patient's quantity and quality of life. Estimation of mean QALY for a group of patients is complicat
## Abstract The problem of survival analysis with covariates when observations are subject to irregular interval censoring is considered. A proportional hazards model is assumed. A pseudo likelihood based on the comparison of all pairs of individuals whose survival times can be ordered, is proposed
