cen: censoring rate.

G: Gehan estimating function; L: log-rank estimating function.

With the log-rank function, Jin et al. was the estimator with 10 iterations.

For interval estimation, SW: the sandwich variance estimation; TI: the test inversion.

B, SD, SE, and C are all for the first coefficient, where B is bias (×103), SD standard deviation (×103),

SE mean standard error (×103), and C coverage (%) of the 95% confidence interval.

Ω: Mean quadratic score statistic (×106).
