USMLE.org has specific outline that lets us know what we are held accountable for which is where I pulled this topic. We will try and focus on those topics mentioned and not covered thus far. Hope it is helpful.

Dr Neil, I came back here to thank you so much <3 A question on this curve popped up on my exam yesterday and I was so thankful I'd seen this video of yours! All your biostats videos in fact, I truly believe your biostats series is enough for any biostats questions on the Step 1.
Thank you for all you do!

[Priya-ur]

Thank you for explaining it in the simplest possible way! The way you explain sticks in mind effortlessly.

Hi sir. At 13:38, you said the curve drops by 2/9 percent and you shoul have 9 sections remaining. Shouldnt it be 1/9% as we already accounted for the first person with MI at the first drop in the curve? And shouldnt there be 8 sections remaining as 2 people have had events out of 10? Thank you!

Note for my future reference/revision.

Step (a vertical line) = death.
Longer vertical line: more likely censor occurred prior to that

If censored (e.g. subject left the study)
→study subject # reduces,
→denominator of hazard rate reduces,
→hazard rate increases,
→survival rate decrease steeper (might observe some delay if censor happened over a period of time?)

One of the best things for biostatistics 🎉

[abdullaharif-ndxi]

[lipikapal]

I saw this curve in my step 1 exam, was able to solve it with no confusion. Thank you so much for explaining it. The last two weeks of my preparation I mostly saw almost all of your videos. I really appreciate the time you are explaining the high yield topics and making it easier.

[danielcastilo]

Thank Dr. McNeil, once again your videos are not only concise but easy to understand and extremely high yield.
