Sensitivity Analyses for Missing in Repeatedly Measured Outcome Data.
We discuss practical aspects of conducting sensitivity analyses for missing data with a repeatedly measured outcome. Our motivation is a SMART trial with a repeatedly measured outcome subject to missingness. We discuss and describe delta-based controlled imputation approaches to conducting sensitivity analyses for such trials that typically use linear mixed models for their primary analysis. We find that delta-based sensitivity analyses for trials with repeatedly measured outcome variables are enhanced by using MICE for the imputation. Further, including last-observed-before-time covariates is critical for a repeatedly observed outcome. We also develop some novel metrics for judging the adequacy of sensitivity analyses.

期刊介绍:
The journal aims to influence practice in medicine and its associated sciences through the publication of papers on statistical and other quantitative methods. Papers will explain new methods and demonstrate their application, preferably through a substantive, real, motivating example or a comprehensive evaluation based on an illustrative example. Alternatively, papers will report on case-studies where creative use or technical generalizations of established methodology is directed towards a substantive application. Reviews of, and tutorials on, general topics relevant to the application of statistics to medicine will also be published. The main criteria for publication are appropriateness of the statistical methods to a particular medical problem and clarity of exposition. Papers with primarily mathematical content will be excluded. The journal aims to enhance communication between statisticians, clinicians and medical researchers.
