摘要
Using simultaneous Bayesian modeling, an attempt is made to analyze data on the size of lymphedema occurring in the arms of breast cancer patients after breast cancer surgery (as the longitudinal data) and the time interval for disease progression (as the time-to-event occurrence). A model based on a multivariate skew t distribution is shown to provide the best fit. This outcome was confirmed by simulation studies too.
