Stratified log-rank statistic

ID: stratified-log-rank-statistic

Compute observed-minus-expected event contributions within each stratum's risk set, then add them across independent strata. Under the null, the corresponding conditional variances add. Standardizing gives an approximate normal distribution test, or its square gives a one-degree-of-freedom chi-squared distribution test. The comparison requires the usual exchangeability and independent censoring assumptions within strata.
