title: Linear regression analysis based on Buckley-James estimating equation.
abstract: In this note we consider the problem of drawing inference about the regression parameters in a linear model with survival data. A simple procedure based on the Buckley-James (1979, Biometrika 66, 429-436) estimating equation is proposed and illustrated with an example.
