Alcohol Consumption and Risk of Incident Frailty: The English Longitudinal Study of Aging
Kojima, G; Jivraj, S; Iliffe, S; Falcaro, M; Liljas, A; Walters, K (2019) -
Analysing censored longitudinal data with non-ignorable missing values: Depression in older age
Falcaro, M; Pendleton, N; Pickles, A (2013-02-01)Missing values are common in cohort studies of the elderly. As part of a study of cognition in older age, we implemented a model for the analysis of longitudinal depression data complicated by the presence of non-ignorable ... -
Analysis of multivariate survival data in genetic epidemiology, PhD thesis in Statistics
Falcaro, M (2003-02-01) -
audit_cc: A Stata command for the analysis of matched case-control audits of cervical cancer screening.
Falcaro, M; Sasieni, P; Castañon, A (2023)BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Cervical screening programmes are crucial for the early diagnosis and prevention of cancer of the cervix. Regular auditing is vital for ensuring that these programmes achieve their full potential ... -
BMI upon discharge from hospital and its relationship with survival: an observational study utilising linked patient records
Freemantle, N; Ray, D; Falcaro, M; McNulty, D; Shallcross, L; Wood, J; Pagano, D (2016) -
Effect of the HPV vaccination programme on incidence of cervical cancer and grade 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia by socioeconomic deprivation in England: population based observational study.
Falcaro, M; Soldan, K; Ndlela, B; Sasieni, P (2024-05-15)OBJECTIVES: To replicate previous analyses on the effectiveness of the English human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programme on incidence of cervical cancer and grade 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN3) using ... -
Estimating Excess Hazard Ratios and Net Survival When Covariate Data Are Missing <i>Strategies for Multiple Imputation</i>
Falcaro, M; Nur, U; Rachet, B; Carpenter, JR (2015) -
Estimating intervention effects in a complex multi-level smoking prevention study.
Falcaro, M; Povey, AC; Fielder, A; Nahit, E; Pickles, A (2009-02)This paper illustrates how to estimate cumulative and non-cumulative treatment effects in a complex school-based smoking intervention study. The Instrumental Variable method is used to tackle non-compliance and measurement ... -
Factors associated with discontinuation of antidepressant treatment after a single prescription among patients aged 55 or over: evidence from English primary care
Falcaro, M; Ben-Shlomo, Y; King, M; Freemantle, N; Walters, K (2019) -
Familial loading in specific language impairment: patterns of differences across proband characteristics, gender and relative type.
Conti-Ramsden, G; Falcaro, M; Simkin, Z; Pickles, A (2007-04)There is now little doubt that both environmental factors and genes are likely to make important contributions to the aetiology of specific language impairment (SLI). The most commonly proposed model for understanding these ... -
A flexible model for multivariate interval-censored survival times with complex correlation structure.
Falcaro, M; Pickles, A (2007-02-10)We focus on the analysis of multivariate survival times with highly structured interdependency and subject to interval censoring. Such data are common in developmental genetics and genetic epidemiology. We propose a flexible ... -
Genetic and phenotypic effects of phonological short-term memory and grammatical morphology in specific language impairment.
Falcaro, M; Pickles, A; Newbury, DF; Addis, L; Banfield, E; Fisher, SE; Monaco, AP; Simkin, Z; Conti-Ramsden, G; SLI Consortium (2008-06)Deficits in phonological short-term memory and aspects of verb grammar morphology have been proposed as phenotypic markers of specific language impairment (SLI) with the suggestion that these traits are likely to be under ... -
Linkage analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinally derived phenotypic measures to identify loci influencing blood pressure.
Shephard, N; Falcaro, M; Zeggini, E; Chapman, P; Hinks, A; Barton, A; Worthington, J; Pickles, A; John, S (2003-12-31)BACKGROUND: The design of appropriate strategies to analyze and interpret linkage results for complex human diseases constitutes a challenge. Parameters such as power, definition of phenotype, and replicability have to be ... -
Linkage and association analysis of alternative phenotypic measures to identify loci influencing blood pressure
Shepherd, N; Falcaro, M; et al.; 13th Genetic Analysis Workshop (2002-11-11) -
Loss of language in early development of autism and specific language impairment
