| | The Bradford Hill viewpoints are commonly used as a checklist to argue for causality when randomized trials aren't possible. However, the originator of these viewpoints never intended for them to be used this way. In this post, I examine the shortcomings of using these viewpoints as a checklist in the real world.

| | It is well known that the score test for comparing survival distributions between two groups without covariate adjustment, using a Cox proportional hazards (PH) model, is identical to the log-rank \chi^2 test when there are no tied failure times. Yet there persists a belief that the log-rank test is somehow completely nonparametric and does not assume PH. Log-rank and Cox approaches can only disagree if the more commonly used likelihood ratio (LR) statistic from the Cox model disagrees with the log-rank statistic (and the Cox score statistic). This article shows that in fact the log-rank and Cox LR statistics agree to a remarkable degree, and furthermore the hazard ratio arising from the log-rank test also has remarkable agreement with the Cox model counterpart. Since both methods assume PH and the log-rank test assumes within-group heterogeneity (because it doesn't allow for covariate adjustment), the Cox model actually makes fewer assumptions than log-rank.
