Marginal structural models to estimate the causal effect of zidovudine on the survival of HIV-positive men.

open access: bronzeEpidemiology, 2000
Standard methods for survival analysis, such as the time-dependent Cox model, may produce biased effect estimates when there exist time-dependent confounders that are themselves affected by previous treatment or exposure. Marginal structural models are a

Causal effect on a target population: A sensitivity analysis to handle missing covariates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2021
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are often considered the gold standard for estimating causal effect, but they may lack external validity when the population eligible to the RCT is substantially different from the target population.

Applying the adjustment set to estimate causal effect of data based on the causal graph model

open access: yesSichuan jingshen weisheng, 2022
The purpose of this paper was to introduce the five limitations of the PROC CAUSALGRAPH procedure and estimate the causal effect of the data by using the adjustment set based on the causal graph model.

Causal effect of COVID‐19 on Alzheimer's disease: A Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, 2022
It was reported that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection may cause brain size reduction and cognitive decline. Whether COVID‐19 may contribute to the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is not known.

Quantifying Causal Path-Specific Importance in Structural Causal Model

open access: yesComputation, 2023
Path-specific effect analysis is a powerful tool in causal inference. This paper provides a definition of causal counterfactual path-specific importance score for the structural causal model (SCM). Different from existing path-specific effect definitions,

Causal effective field theories

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2022
Physical principles such as unitarity, causality, and locality can constrain the space of consistent effective field theories (EFTs) by imposing two-sided bounds on the allowed values of Wilson coefficients. In this paper, we consider the bounds that arise from the requirement of low-energy causality alone, without appealing to any assumptions about UV
