Implications of acute change in estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) for the effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) on long-term endpoints.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
In randomized trials, the primary analysis often estimates the average treatment effect on a clinical endpoint. Some treatments also lead to early changes in a biomarker that is prognostic for the clinical endpoint, prompting investigators to explore how

Parkinson Disease Subtype Stability and Eventual Convergence

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Previous research identified distinct Parkinson disease (PD) clinical subtypes of “Motor Only,” “Psychiatric & Motor,” and “Cognitive & Motor” based on comprehensive, multidomain classification. Whether these subtypes reflect distinct trajectories or progressive disease stages remains unknown.

Early metoprolol use in ICU patients with congestive heart failure is associated with increased 30-day mortality: a causal machine learning study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
BackgroundThe risk-benefit balance of early metoprolol administration in critically ill patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) remains controversial.

2D score-based estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2023
Statisticians show growing interest in estimating and analyzing heterogeneity in causal effects in observational studies. However, there usually exists a trade-off between accuracy and interpretability for developing a desirable estimator for treatment ...

Automatic Lesion Morphometrics Reliably Predict Sensorimotor Recovery After Spinal Cord Injury: A Longitudinal, Multicenter Neuroimaging Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate automatic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐derived lesion morphometrics against manual measurements and their prognostic value for characterizing distinct acute to chronic neurological recovery trajectories after spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods We studied a retrospective, multicenter cohort of cervical and thoracolumbar

Estimating average partial effects under conditional moment independence assumptions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
I show how to identify and estimate the average partial effect of explanatory variables in a model where unobserved heterogeneity interacts with the explanatory variables and may be unconditionally correlated with the explanatory variables.

Estimating treatment effects from non-overlapping cohorts with application to antimicrobial resistance

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Background The positivity assumption, also known as overlap, is one of the key assumptions for causal inference. However, in certain observational studies it does not hold.

SpatialMed-CF: A Unified Spatial Mediation Causal Forest Framework for Evaluating Heterogeneous Effects of Urban Greening Interventions

open access: yesAtmosphere
Urban greening interventions are widely implemented to mitigate urban heat islands, but rigorous causal evaluation is hindered by three challenges: interventions are not randomly assigned (selection bias), treatment effects are heterogeneous across urban

Serostatus‐Specific Prognostic Profiles and Phenotype‐Dependent Therapeutic Windows in Autoimmune Encephalitis: A Multicenter Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While autoimmune encephalitis (AE) outcomes vary, serostatus‐specific prognostic determinants and institutional clustering effects remain poorly characterized. We aimed to delineate the distinct prognostic architecture of AE, identifying serostatus‐specific risk factors and potential therapeutic windows.
