Statistical methods / analysis
Statistical analysis will be performed using SPSS software (IBM Corp). Statistical significance will be set at P< .05. The probability of failure will be estimated as a function of time using the Kaplan-Meier survival method. Survival tables at 1, 2, 5, 10 years will be collated. Comparisons of survival curves will be made with the univariate Cox proportional hazards model. Factors that are significant (p<.05) or nearly significant (p< .10) on univariate analysis will be entered into multivariate Cox regression analysis. Factors are then eliminated one at a time in a stepwise fashion until only the independent significant factors remain.
