proposed a regression calibration estimator in Cox regression when covariate variables are measured with error. However, estimation of the covariance of this estimator has not yet been discussed in the literature. The regression calibration estimator is to replace an unobserved covariate variable by
Estimation methods are considered for regression models which have both misclassified discrete covariates and continuous covariates measured with error. Adjusted parameter estimates are obtained using the method of data augmentation, where the true values of the covariates measured with error are re
The Cox proportional hazards model is the most popular model for the analysis of survival data. Time-dependent covariates can be included in a straightforward manner. In most cases such covariates will be binary, indicating some form of changing group membership, with individuals starting in group 0
The use of CD4#T-lymphocyte counts as a covariate presents some unique challenges in survivorship analyses due to the variability of this marker. If one does not account for the measurement error component of this variability in some manner, the estimate of the relative risk parameter in a time-depe
