Inverse Probability Weighting with Missing Predictors of Treatment Assignment or Missingness [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2014
Inverse probability weighting (IPW) can deal with confounding in non randomized studies. The inverse weights are probabilities of treatment assignment (propensity scores), estimated by regressing assignment on predictors. Problems arise if predictors can be missing.

Association Between Epidural Analgesia and Cancer Recurrence or Survival After Surgery for Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Propensity Weighted Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Whether epidural anesthesia and analgesia (EA) is beneficial for postoperative cancer outcomes remains controversial and we conducted this historical cohort study to evaluate the association between EA and long-term outcomes following surgery for renal ...

Antiepileptic Drug Use and the Risk of Stroke Among Community‐Dwelling People With Alzheimer Disease: A Matched Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background People with Alzheimer disease (AD) are more predisposed to seizures than older people in general, and use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is more frequent.

Teclistamab versus real-world physician’s choice of therapy in triple-class exposed relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Effectiveness Research, 2023
Aim: We compared the effectiveness of teclistamab versus real-world physician’s choice of therapy (RWPC) in triple-class exposed relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Materials & methods: MajesTEC- 1 eligibility criteria were applied to the RWPC cohort.

Modeling time‐varying exposure using inverse probability of treatment weights

open access: yesBiometrical Journal, 2017
AbstractFor estimating the causal effect of treatment exposure on the occurrence of adverse events, inverse probability weights (IPW) can be used in marginal structural models to correct for time‐dependent confounding. The R package ipw allows IPW estimation by modeling the relationship between the exposure and confounders via several regression models,

The Choice of Analytical Strategies in Inverse-Probability-of-Treatment–Weighted Analysis: A Simulation Study [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Epidemiology, 2015
We sought to explore the impact of intention to treat and complex treatment use assumptions made during weight construction on the validity and precision of estimates derived from inverse-probability-of-treatment-weighted analysis. We simulated data assuming a nonexperimental design that attempted to quantify the effect of statin on lowering low ...

Comparison of Disease-Free Survival of Breast-Conserving Surgery and Mastectomy Using Propensity Score as Inverse Probability Treatment Weighting [PDF]

open access: yesMiddle East Journal of Cancer, 2023
Background: Survival after breast conserving surgery (BCS) vs. modified radical mastectomy (MRM) is a controversial issue. In this study, we want to compare the disease-free survival (DFS) of women who underwent BCS with those treated by MRM.Method: In ...

Joint calibrated estimation of inverse probability of treatment and censoring weights for marginal structural models [PDF]

open access: yesBiometrics, 2020
AbstractMarginal structural models (MSMs) with inverse probability weighted estimators (IPWEs) are widely used to estimate causal effects of treatment sequences on longitudinal outcomes in the presence of time‐varying confounding and dependent censoring.
