Abstract
|
|
|
|
On conducting a quantitative systematic reviews, some articles selected as the subject were presented solely in the form of Kaplan-Meier survival curves. To avoid publication bias, researchers should estimate the hazard ratio (HR) and its standard error (SE) representing the whole curve. This paper presents a practical method to estimate them.
