An inefficient, but quickly and easily calculated, estimate of a survival-time distribution is described. Conditions for the estimate to be unbiased specify bounds on the length of time a study has been in progress and the way in which people must enter a study. These appear to be frequently met when a large medical registry is examined with a view to establishing base line survival experience for a selected class of patients.
本文描述了一种对生存时间分布的估计方法，该方法虽效率不高，但计算迅速且简便。使该估计无偏的条件规定了研究进行的时间长度界限以及人们进入研究的方式。当为选定的一类患者建立基线生存经验而检查大型医学登记处时，这些条件似乎经常能够满足。
