Clinical trials often include binary end points. In some cases, no successes are observed and the usual large sample estimates of relative risk are undefined. The paper proposes an estimator for relative risk based on the median unbiased estimator. The relative risk estimator proposed is well...

Longitudinal population-based surveys are widely used in the health sciences to study patterns of change over time. In many of these data sets unique patient identifiers are not publicly available, making it impossible to link the repeated measures from the same individual directly. This poses a...

Rubin & Schenker (1986) proposed the approximate Bayesian bootstrap, a two-stage resampling procedure, as a method of creating multiple imputations when missing data are ignorable. Kim (2002) showed that the multiple imputation variance estimator is biased for moderate sample sizes when this...
