Causal relationships between COVID-19 and osteoporosis: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study in European population

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2023
IntroductionThe causal relationship between Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and osteoporosis (OP) remains uncertain. We aimed to assess the effect of COVID-19 severity (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, COVID-19 ...

Causal Effects of Body Mass Index and Maternal Age on Oocyte Maturation in Assisted Reproductive Technology: Model-Average Causal Effect and Bayesian LASSO Method

open access: yesIranian Journal of Public Health, 2020
Background: Body Mass Index (BMI) and maternal age are related to various disorders of the female reproductive system. This study aimed to estimate the causal effects of BMI and maternal age on the rate of metaphase II oocytes (MII) using a new ...

Association between breast cancer and thyroid cancer risk: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundBreast and thyroid cancer are increasingly prevalent, but it remains unclear whether the observed associations are due to heightened medical surveillance or intrinsic etiological factors.

Causality and the effective range expansion [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Physics, 2010
We derive the generalization of Wigner's causality bounds and Bethe's integral formula for the effective range parameter to arbitrary dimension and arbitrary angular momentum. We also discuss the impact of these constraints on the separation of low- and high-momentum scales and universality in low-energy scattering.

The Causal Effects of Place on Health and Longevity [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Life expectancy varies substantially across local regions within a country, raising conjectures that place of residence affects health. However, population sorting and other confounders make it difficult to disentangle the effects of place on health from other geographic differences in life expectancy.

Local Causal Discovery for Estimating Causal Effects

open access: yes, 2023
Even when the causal graph underlying our data is unknown, we can use observational data to narrow down the possible values that an average treatment effect (ATE) can take by (1) identifying the graph up to a Markov equivalence class; and (2) estimating that ATE for each graph in the class.

Learning Heterogeneity in Causal Inference Using Sufficient Dimension Reduction

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2019
Often the research interest in causal inference is on the regression causal effect, which is the mean difference in the potential outcomes conditional on the covariates. In this paper, we use sufficient dimension reduction to estimate a lower dimensional

On the Causal Effect of Badges [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 2018 World Wide Web Conference on World Wide Web - WWW '18, 2018
A wide variety of online platforms use digital badges to encourage users to take certain types of desirable actions. However, despite their growing popularity, their causal effect on usersĀ» behavior is not well understood. This is partly due to the lack of counterfactual data and the myriad of complex factors that influence usersĀ» behavior over time ...
