Simultaneous modelling of operative mortality and long‐term survival after coronary artery bypass surgery
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Typical analyses of lifetime data treat the time to death or failure as the response variable and use a variety of modelling strategies such as proportional hazards or fully parametric, to investigate the relationship between the response and covariates. In certain circumstances it may be more natural to view the distribution of the response variable as consisting of two or more parts since the survival curve appears segmented. This article addresses such a scenario and we propose a model for simultaneously investigating the effects of covariates over the two segments. The model is an analogue of that proposed by Lambert for zero-inflated Poisson regression. The application is central to the model development and is concerned with survival after coronary artery bypass surgery. Here operative mortality, defined as death within 30 days after surgery, and long-term mortality, are viewed as distinct outcomes. For the application considered, the survivor function displays much steeper descent during the first 30 days after surgery, that is, for operative mortality, than after this period. An investigation of the effects of covariates on operative and long-term mortality after coronary artery bypass surgery illustrates the usefulness of the proposed model.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
