Approaches to inverse-probability-of-treatment–weighted estimation with concurrent treatments
Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, 2013 Objectives: In a setting with two concurrent treatments, inverse-probability-of-treatment weights can be used to estimate the joint treatment effects or the marginal effect of one treatment while taking the other to be a confounder. We explore these two approaches in a study of intravenous iron use in hemodialysis patients treated concurrently with ...

A Bayesian view of doubly robust causal inference [PDF]
, 2016 In causal inference confounding may be controlled either through regression adjustment in an outcome model, or through propensity score adjustment or inverse probability of treatment weighting, or both. The latter approaches, which are based on modelling

The influence of maternal migration on child vaccination in Kenya: An inverse probability of treatment-weighted analysis [PDF]
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2021 Kenya has substantially improved child mortality between 1990 and 2019, with under-5 mortality decreasing from 104 to 43 deaths per 1000 live births. However, only two-thirds of Kenyan children receive all recommended vaccines by 1 year, making it essential to identify undervaccinated subpopulations. Internal migrants are a potentially vulnerable group

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