Abstract
This is an introductory paper to the theory of stochastic differential equations and points out the parallelism between these equations and the linear models of the classical statistics. Survival data analysis can easily be embedded in the analysis of point processes. This allows to investigate a great variety of models and to extend the considerations on more realistic biological processes and, on the other hand, to apply some of the fast developing new techniques of statistical inference for diffusion processes in the medical field. Before this can actually be done, further research work seems necessary.
