For administrative censoring with uniform entry, let entry time . Then has the uniform distribution on , where , , and . Its density and survivor function are
Dividing density by survival and integrating gives the censoring hazard and integrated hazard:
The hazard function is undefined once no uncensored individuals remain. As , it diverges like and the cumulative hazard function diverges logarithmically. This reflects the certainty of administrative censoring by the longest possible follow-up time, not dependence of censoring on the event process.
