In 2023, the total fertility rate dropped to 1 ∑20 per woman from the previous year's 1 ∑26, marking a record low.1 Japan's population was 126 million in 2020 but is predicted to fall to 87 million in 2070.2 Amid such circumstances, measures to combat declining birthrates by improving the childbearing environment represent one of the most urgent issues, yet compared with other countries, the response is inadequate. A prime example of this inadequacy is the handling of child abuse.

Hence, estimating the survival gain from the difference of medians (gain of 3 ∑2 months, as the difference of the two medians of 14 ∑4 months and 11 ∑2 months) tends to overestimate the survival benefit of the new treatment. The restricted-mean survival time (RMST) is used less frequently than medians, but has an important advantage in that it reflects the entire time course of a survival curve.
