On summary measures analysis of the linear mixed effects model for repeated measures when data are not missing completely at random

(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2008-01-15)
We consider the analysis of longitudinal data sets that include times of recurrent events, where interest lies in variables that are functions of the number of events and the time intervals between events for each individual, ...
