IMPLEMENTASI MODEL ACCELERATED FAILURE TIME (AFT) BERDISTRIBUSI LOG-LOGISTIK PADA PASIEN PENYAKIT JANTUNG BAWAAN

Log-Logistic Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) model is survival analysis that is used when the survival time follows Log-Logistic distribution. Log-Logistic AFT model can be used to estimate survival time, survival function, and hazard function. Log-Logistic AFT model was formed by regressing covariates linierly against the log of survival time. Regression coefficients are estimated using maximum likelihood method. This study uses data from Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) patients, which is a congenital disease with a hole in the wall that separates the top of two chambers of the heart by using sensor type III. Survival time as the response variable, that is the time from patient was diagnosed with ASD until the first relapse and uses age, gender, treatment status (catheterization/surgery), defect size that is the size of the hole in the heart terrace, pulmonary hypertension status, and pain status as predictor variables. The result showed that variable gender, treatment status, defect size, pulmonary hypertension status, and pain status affect the first recurrence of ASD patients, so it is found that category of female, untreated patient, defect size ≥12mm, having pulmonary hypertension, having chest pain tend to have first recurrence sooner than the other category.

Bayesian Parametric Modeling of Time to Tuberculosis Co-Infection of HIV/AIDS Patients Under Antiretroviral Therapy Treatment at Jimma University Medical Center, Ethiopia

Background: Tuberculosis is the most common opportunistic infection among HIV/AIDS patients, including those following Antiretroviral Therapy treatment. The risk of Tuberculosis infection is higher in people living with HIV/AIDS than in people who are free from HIV/AIDS. Many studies focused on prevalence and determinants of Tuberculosis in HIV/AIDS patients without taking into account the censoring aspects of the time to event data. Therefore, this study was undertaken with aim to model time to Tuberculosis co-infection of HIV/AIDS patients following Antiretroviral Therapy treatment using Bayesian parametric survival models.Methods: A data of a retrospective cohort of HIV/AIDS patients under Antiretroviral Therapy treatment follow-up from January 2016 to December 2020 until Tuberculosis was clinically diagnosed or until the end of the study was collected from Antiretroviral Therapy treatment center of Jimma University Medical Center, Ethiopia. In order to identify the risk factors which have association with Tuberculosis co-infection survival time, Bayesian parametric Accelerated failure time survival models were fitted to the data using Integrated Nested Laplace Approximation methodology.Results: About 26.37% of the study subjects had been co-infected with tuberculosis during the study period. Among the parametric Accelerated failure time models, the Bayesian log-logistic Accelerated failure time model was found to be the best fitting model for the data.Conclusions: Tuberculosis co-infection survival time was significantly associated with place of residence, smoking, drinking alcohol, family size, WHO clinical stages, functional status, CD4 count, BMI and hemoglobin level. The finding of this study provide timely information on the risk factors associated with TB co-infection survival time for healthy policy makers and planners.
