Directed causal effect with PCMCI in hyperscanning EEG time series

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Social activities are likely to cause effects or reactivity in the brains of the people involved in collaborative social situations. This study assesses a new method, Tigramite, for time domain analysis of directed causality between the prefrontal cortex

Dynamic Window-level Granger Causality of Multi-channel Time Series [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Granger causality method analyzes the time series causalities without building a complex causality graph. However, the traditional Granger causality method assumes that the causalities lie between time series channels and remain constant, which cannot model the real-world time series data with dynamic causalities along the time series channels.

Genetic evidence strengthens the connection between gut microbiota and gingivitis: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionThe oral cavity and gut tract, being interconnected and rich in microbiota, may have a shared influence on gingivitis. However, the specific role of distinct gut microbiota taxa in gingivitis remains unexplored.

The association of maternal smoking around birth with chronic respiratory diseases in adult offspring: A Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesTobacco Induced Diseases
Introduction Maternal smoking during pregnancy disturbs fetal lung development, and induces in their offspring childhood respiratory diseases. Whether it has a continued impact on offspring adult lung health and exerts a casual effect of chronic ...

Association between sleep-related phenotypes and gut microbiota: a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
BackgroundAn increasing body of evidence suggests a profound interrelation between the microbiome and sleep-related concerns. Nevertheless, current observational studies can merely establish their correlation, leaving causality unexplored.Study ...

Identification and Estimation of Causal Mechanisms and Net Effects of a Treatment under Unconfoundedness [PDF]

open access: yes
An important goal when analyzing the causal effect of a treatment on an outcome is to understand the mechanisms through which the treatment causally works.

Causal Bayes Model of Mathematical Competence in Kindergarten [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, 2016
In this paper authors define mathematical competences in the kindergarten. The basic objective was to measure the mathematical competences or mathematical knowledge, skills and abilities in mathematical education. Mathematical competences were grouped in

Association of coffee intake with bone mineral density: a Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundIn observational studies, the relationship between coffee intake and bone mineral density (BMD) is contradictory. However, residual confounding tends to bias the results of these studies. Therefore, we used a two-sample Mendelian randomization (

Identifying Macro Causal Effects in C-DMGs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Causal effect identification using causal graphs is a fundamental challenge in causal inference. While extensive research has been conducted in this area, most existing methods assume the availability of fully specified causal graphs. However, in complex domains such as medicine and epidemiology, complete causal knowledge is often unavailable, and only

Causal programming: inference with structural causal models as finding instances of a relation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
This paper proposes a causal inference relation and causal programming as general frameworks for causal inference with structural causal models. A tuple, $\langle M, I, Q, F \rangle$, is an instance of the relation if a formula, $F$, computes a causal query, $Q$, as a function of known population probabilities, $I$, in every model entailed by a set of ...
