AFT survival model to capture the rate of aging and age-specific mortality trajectories among first-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplant patients.

Accelerated failure time (AFT) model is commonly applied in engineering studies to address the failure rate of a machine. In humans, survival profile of transplant patients is among the rare scenarios whereby AFT is applicable. To date, it is uncertain whether reliable risk estimates and age-specifi...
