Horner N, Lampe J, Patterson R, Neuhouser M, Beresford S, Prentice R
J Nutr . 2001 Aug; 131(8):2215-8. PMID: 11481420
An objective measure of energy intake is needed in epidemiologic studies to evaluate random and systematic error associated with dietary self-report tools. Total energy expenditure in weight-stable humans is accepted...

Wang C, Anderson G, Prentice R
Biometrics . 2001 Apr; 55(3):711-7. PMID: 11314997
Food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) are commonly used to assess dietary intake in epidemiologic research. To evaluate the FFQ reliability, the commonly used approach is to estimate the correlation coefficient between...

Prentice R
Breast Cancer Res . 2001 Mar; 2(4):268-76. PMID: 11250720
The potential for a reduction in dietary fat or for an increase in dietary fiber to reduce breast cancer risk has been debated for some years. It is argued here...

Fan J, Hsu L, Prentice R
Lifetime Data Anal . 2001 Feb; 6(4):343-55. PMID: 11190604
This article concerns nonparametric estimation of association between bivariate failure times. In the presence of independent right censoring, the support for failure time variates may be restricted and measures of...

McCombe P, Wilson R, Prentice R
J Clin Neurosci . 2000 Jun; 7(3):209-12. PMID: 10833617
We used an ELISA technique to measure IgG and IgM antibodies to the ganglioside GM1, with the results expressed in arbitrary units. We tested 1007 sera from patients with peripheral...

Anderson G, Prentice R
Stat Methods Med Res . 2000 Mar; 8(4):287-309. PMID: 10730335
It is argued that randomized, controlled trials should fulfil a critical role in the identification of practical approaches to the prevention and control of chronic diseases. Because of the great...

Prentice R
Stat Med . 1999 Sep; 18(17-18):2517-27. PMID: 10474157
The likelihood function for the bivariate survivor function F, under independent censorship, is maximized to obtain a non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator &Fcirc;. &Fcirc; may or may not be unique depending...

Satia J, Patterson R, Herrero R, Jin F, Dai Q, King I, et al.
Int J Cancer . 1999 Jun; 82(1):28-32. PMID: 10360816
One striking paradox in epidemiologic research is the strong association between diet and cancer in ecologic studies compared with the weaker associations reported in many within-country case-control and cohort studies....

Anderson A, Prentice R
Biometrics . 1999 Jan; 54(4):1527-40. PMID: 9883550
Prentice and Sheppard (1995, Biometrika 82, 113-125) proposed a method for estimating relative risks associated with poorly measured exposures using disease rates from multiple populations and exposure and confounding factor...

Brown N, Thompson D, Prentice R
J Am Geriatr Soc . 1998 Jul; 46(7):839-48. PMID: 9670870
Objectives: Strong feelings about patient autonomy as expressed in living wills, polls, and legislative referenda have been challenging the medical establishment to increase nontreatment, defined as foregoing a life-prolonging treatment,...
