Wow ! Definitely ONE of the Best Video I’ve watch on Biostatistics! Subject matter presented in a simple and succinct way ! Thank you so very much Dr McCoy! Please keep making those videos ! You are much appreciated ! 😊
thank you so much Dr. McCoy for explaining this topic in great details but still easy to understand! hats off to the best explanation video about HR on youtube!
Your feedback lets me know that I am moving in the right direction as an educator and content creator. Thank you Kerri. Keep an eye out for more content in the future!
You said it right "Work Smart and not Hard" and of course we need more videos like this from smart people like you. I am a grad student learning these new concepts. The best video ever. Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback Divya. We are currently working on placing a library of content online, so stay tuned. And good luck with your grad studies!
Thank you very much for this video! I have no stats/medical background and I was able to get a general understanding about the purpose of Kaplan Meier curves and Hazard ratios. Your videos are so engaging and make a topic like this really interesting 🎉
This was a FANTASTIC video! More medical students need videos like this breaking down high impact journal articles and teaching the basic principles of some of the most utilized statistical concepts. I'd encourage you to make more of these videos as this was truly fantastic.
Thank you so much Kartik! It is my pleasure to provide only the highest quality educational experience for my learners. We are working on a library of content online . . . the video series you are waiting for is on the way!
Thank you ron finn. I am working on converting the content I teach to my University students and my conference educational sessions into a format available on UA-cam.
Thank you so much Dr. McCoy. I remember you from the McMaster EBP workshop, so I am not surprise at all to see such an amazing explanation about the theme. I would be more than pleasure to see more videos about EBM explain by you. Best regards. Yesenia from Mexico
Thanks Dr. Mccoy! I needed this for some analysis on ED boarding and mortality for broke. I was very surprised to see your handsome mug on here... but this was perfect.
What a wonderful video! I have been trying to find out if my approach to a research question is stupid: 1. I asked what is associated with whether or not someone dropped out of school during their pregnancy using a logistic regression followed by 2. A cox regression that was ought to give me more information as to when (measured in weeks) something happened during their pregnancy in terms of dropout. Now, the hazard ratio and odds ratio are quite similar -- which is expected, I suppose, given that the hazard ratio assumes proportionality. For instance, the logistic regression showed that those who do not have caregiver support are 3 times more likely to drop out during pregnancy (odds ratio = 3) and the hazard ratio for that same variable is 3 as well. As far as I understand, the hazard ratio means that dropping out for those without caregiver support is three times more likely than those for caregiver support at any given time. Since this needs to be proportionate between groups, this '3' would be expected to be similar to the odds ratio from regression or not? My question is: What is the added value of the cox regression in addition to the logistic regression that I already have? Could I use the logistic regression to identify variables that I then test over time in a cox regression ??? THANK YOU!!!!!
One of the key variables that distinguishes a hazard ratio from say, an odds ratio, is the time to the event. If all you are interested in is whether an event occurred, then measures of effect such as odds ratios or risk ratios should suffice. However, if you are also interested in the time until that event . . . then Kaplan Meier curves and hazard ratios will likely be the pathway for you.
Sir, thanks alot for coming up with such an awesome presentation, i couldn't believe myself that I've listened to the whole video without pausing ..... thanks again for making it so engaging :)
I am very glad to view this. A lot of confusion cleared in less than one hour. To Dr McCoy...more grease to a born teacher. Do u have other videos on the other medical statistics topics? Kindly let me know
It is important to point out that the term 'probability' is often used, through technically incorrect to describe the likelihood of an event at a given time point t. Rather, it is the likelihood of event at time t conditional on the passage of time from observation start to t minus 1. But, great video.

Hello Javier. I teach multiple courses, one of which is clinical epidemiology and biostatistics for the school of medicine. This video was originally intended for my medical students . . . however I quickly discovered that more than just my students were gaining benefit from the educational offering. Thank you for the feedback.
That is undoubtedly one of the best presentations I have heard on this topic. Relevant, clear and lucid with just the right pace. Thank you! Any similar videos on critical medical literature review?. Covering types of trials and meta-analysis?
wow, you really broke this down into its finer details- very cool! thank you!! ^_^.. not gonna lie, I did watch this veryy passively and somewhat as background noise/while multitasking/but still visually following along every now n then lol.. so.. I'll definitely be back for a more focused view :) - thanks sm for treating this just as you did and for not feeling the need to give into some weird youtube fodder (try-hard funny stuff??..). it can be a bit distracting and i feel, most often, out of place most of the time >_< .. so, definitely also very much appreciate that aspect!.. I'm new to your content and channel so I'm not sure if you're familiar with public speaking or know your way around delivering lectures and such.. but, having sat through a bad class or two.. lol, if neither of those were already in your wheel-house, then I'd say you definitely have a knack for it! Your pacing and delivery-the natural conversational tone with its natural ebbs n flows-really allow for an easy-listen and an un-stressed focus. (ykno, as opposed to too monotone, stark script reading, or unnatural pauses in odd places.)--... welp.. not sure how to end this now! lol..and i've gotten quite lazy lmao-- i/g in youtube or in internet fashion: k baiii ^_^
Thank you deba! We are working on providing a library of content online for our learners. Regarding the 95% CI content, this video was originally intended for students in my epidemiology and biostatistics class where all of their content is posted internally (University). I wanted to post one or two of their videos online to check how many students watched the content before class. Little did I expect several thousands of viewers to watch and appreciate the content! We have content on point estimates and 95% CI slated for our larger online viewing community. Stay tuned!

Hi. Thank you for the useful videos. I would like to ask you : how to calculate... if I want to find the actual number of patients that experienced the event at 5 years ?
Can you also make a video to explain how does competing risk (death due to other reasons) affect the Kaplan-Meier curve's accuracy ? and why Aalen-Johansen estimator is used instead of Kaplan-Meier during such situation?
Hello Aashay, we are working on a library of core content designed specifically with the learner in mind. We will also be adding additional content if enough learners are interested. Thank you for your interest!
