From: Including uncertainty of the expected mortality rates in the prediction of loss in life expectancy
Relative (%) precision (RP) comparing the modelling approaches, where uncertainty in the expected mortality rates used to estimate expected 15-year restricted mean survival time, RMSTexp, 15-year restricted mean survival time for cancer patients, RMSTC, and 15-year loss in restricted mean survival time, LRMST, is 1) taken into account and 2) ignored. Results are presented for women, aged 55, 65, 75 and 85 years at breast or colon cancer diagnosis in 1992, 1997 and 2002. The above graph (a) presents RP of 15-year RMSTC and the below graph (b) depicts RP of 15-year LRMST
