The impact of different censoring methods for analyzing survival using real-world data with linked mortality information: a simulation study

Abstract Background Evaluating outcome reliability is critical in real-world evidence studies.Overall survival is a common outcome in these studies; however, its capture in real-world data (RWD) sources is often incomplete and supplemented with linked mortality information from external sources.Conflicting recommendations exist for censoring overal

Experimental investigation of thermal and mechanical characteristics of slag cement mortars with PCM for radiant floors

Mortar thermal storage layers incorporating phase change material (PCM) can improve the thermal performance of radiant floors in buildings, reduce indoor temperature fluctuations and thus provide further savings in building heating energy consumption, offering great potential for the application of active thermal energy storage systems.This study c
