Using Propensity Scores for Causal Inference: Pitfalls and Tips

open access: yesJournal of Epidemiology, 2021
Methods based on propensity score (PS) have become increasingly popular as a tool for causal inference. A better understanding of the relative advantages and disadvantages of the alternative analytic approaches can contribute to the optimal choice and ...

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.

Variance estimation in inverse probability weighted Cox models

open access: yesBiometrics, 2020
AbstractInverse probability weighted Cox models can be used to estimate marginal hazard ratios under different point treatments in observational studies. To obtain variance estimates, the robust sandwich variance estimator is often recommended to account for the induced correlation among weighted observations.

Inverse probability weighting for covariate adjustment in randomized studies [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2013
Covariate adjustment in randomized clinical trials has the potential benefit of precision gain. It also has the potential pitfall of reduced objectivity as it opens the possibility of selecting a ‘favorable’ model that yields strong treatment benefit estimate.

Second-best probability weighting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Non-linear probability weighting is an integral part of descriptive theories of choice under risk such as prospect theory. But why do these objective errors in information processing exist?

Splenic hilar lymph node dissection enhances survival in Bormann type 4 gastric cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Splenic hilar (no.10) lymph node dissection during total gastrectomy is no longer recommended for advanced proximal gastric cancer. However, the treatment efficacy of no.10 lymph node dissection in Borrmann type 4 tumors remains unclear.

Midterm Prognosis of Patients With Pulmonary Embolism Receiving Catheter‐Directed Thrombolysis or Systemic Thrombolysis: A Nationwide Population‐Based Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background This study compared the efficacy and safety between catheter‐directed thrombolysis (CDT) and systemic thrombolysis for patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) with midterm follow‐up.

On Inverse Probability Weighting for Nonmonotone Missing at Random Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Statistical Association, 2017
The development of coherent missing data models to account for nonmonotone missing at random (MAR) data by inverse probability weighting (IPW) remains to date largely unresolved. As a consequence, IPW has essentially been restricted for use only in monotone MAR settings.

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.

Utility of inverse probability weighting in molecular pathological epidemiology [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Epidemiology, 2017
As one of causal inference methodologies, the inverse probability weighting (IPW) method has been utilized to address confounding and account for missing data when subjects with missing data cannot be included in a primary analysis. The transdisciplinary field of molecular pathological epidemiology (MPE) integrates molecular pathological and ...
