Background
A growing number of studies report cognitive impairment after chemotherapy; indeed the phenomenon of chemo-fog is now almost universally accepted. We are concerned however that there is little if any consistency in the way in which patien...

A robust likelihood approach for the analysis of overdispersed correlated count data that takes into account cluster varying covariates is proposed. We emphasise two characteristics of the proposed method: That the correlation structure satisfies the...
