Short summary
When analyzing survival data where one event can prevent another (competing risks), use the cumulative incidence function (CIF) for crude incidence estimates, not the Kaplan-Meier curve, which overestimates incidence. Regression models can target either cause-specific hazards (etiology) or CIF (prognosis).
