I posted this message just before the holiday's season. I'm reposting it
on the hope that it will elicit better response this time.
Does anyone know of the existence of Stata ado for estimating the
survivor function and its standard error where survival time (T) is
defined as the interval between two interval-censored events, i.e., both
events are only known to occur within an interval? This is the situation
that commonly arises in longitudinal studies of viral infections. For
instance T could be the time of clearing HPV infection when the dates of
acquisition and loss (clearance) of infection are not measured exactly
but known to occur between two consecutive dates (dates of prescheduled
follow-up visits).
Many thanks,
