Imputación del instante de inicio de seguimiento en estudios longitudinales: aplicación a la infección por VIH

Abstract: RESUMENFundamentos: En los estudios de cohorte o longitudinales los sujetos son reclutados con un tiempo de evolución desde el inicio del problema, como en el caso de la infección por VIH. El objetivo de este trabajo es mostrar diversas técnicas de imputación del inicio del seguimiento y valorar su adecuación en el marco de un estudio sobre la evolución de la infección por VIH.Sujetos y métodos: Se dispone de tres subcohortes de sujetos VIH+ reclutados en los centros de información y prevención del SIDA de Val… Show more

“…A multiple imputation technique was used to estimate the date of seroconversion of all CoRIS subjects, based on the model for progression of infection described by Muñoz et al [10], which has been used in Spain [11]. These authors use parametric survival models based on the Weibull distribution to estimate the time elapsed between the date of HIV seroconversion and the date of first CD4% in the absence of ART, on the basis of that first CD4%.…”

“…The use of multiple imputation techniques to estimate the time between HIV seroconversion and HIV diagnosis could overcome the aforementioned problem. These techniques, which so far have not been applied to study late HIV diagnosis, are based on the correlation between certain biological markers like CD4 lymphocytes and the duration of infection [911]. …”
