net survival in a relative-survival framework. Net survival can be estimated using the relative-survival ratio, which is … estimating relative survival. We also implement a life-table version of the Pohar Perme (2012, Biometrics 68: 113–120) estimator … comparable group from the general population. In this article, we describe a command, strs, for life-table estimation of relative …

estimator of NS based on inverse probability weighting. They demonstrated that existing estimators of NS based on relative … survival were biased, whereas the new estimator was unbiased. The new estimator was developed for continuous survival times …

In this article, we describe strel2, a Stata command for the estimation of excess hazard and relative survival in large … quantities of interest. Although alternative and more powerful commands for relative survival exist, strel2 is a simple tool that …
