  <dc:title>Longitudinal EHR Analysis with Informative Visits and Recording</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package CIMEHR version 0.2.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Longitudinal outcomes in electronic health records (EHR) are seen
    only when a patient visits and the outcome is recorded at that visit, and
    both processes can depend on the patient's latent health. The package fits
    the CIMEHR estimator for this setting, a three-stage procedure linked by a
    shared latent factor: a frailty partial likelihood for the visiting process,
    a pairwise likelihood for the recording (observation) process, and an
    estimating equation for the outcome. Spline and higher-order Laplace
    variants are included, together with comparison methods (summary
    statistics, linear mixed models, Lin-Ying, Liang, pairwise likelihood,
    joint models, inverse intensity rate ratio weighting and balancing,
    multiple imputation, linear increments and EHRJoint) behind one common
    interface. Methods are described in Yang, Shi, and Mukherjee (2026)
