I thank Thomas Richardson and James Robins for their discussion of my article, and discuss the similarities and differences between their approach to causal modelling, based on single world intervention graphs, and my own decision-theoretic approach.

Esophageal cancer: Outcome and potential benefit of esophagectomy in elderly patients
Background This analysis evaluated the morbimortality and the potential benefit of esophagectomy for cancer in elderly patients. Methods Patients who underwent esophagectomy for EC were divided into elderly (≥70 years) and nonelderly (

Background: The predictability and long-term outcome of the discrete pre-potential (DPP) of idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) arising from the aortic sinuses of Valsalva (ASV) have not been fully identified.Methods: Of 687 consecutive patients ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Choosing exogeneity assumptions in potential outcome models
SummaryThere are many kinds of exogeneity assumptions. How should researchers choose among them? When exogeneity is imposed on an unobservable like a potential outcome, we argue that the form of exogeneity should be chosen based on the kind of selection on unobservables it allows.

ABSTRACT Cup‐like nuclei are a distinctive morphological feature observed in certain cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We provide evidence that they characterize DUX4/ERG ALL independently of IKZF1 deletion and reveal marked mitochondrial accumulation in this ALL subset.

ABSTRACT Primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL) is a rare pediatric CD30‐positive T‐cell lymphoproliferative disorder with an excellent prognosis, but its genomic drivers are poorly defined. We report three children with skin‐limited disease demonstrating striking molecular heterogeneity, including NPM::ALK, NUP214::FRK, and a novel ...

Three analytical frameworks of causal inference and their applications
Causality is a generic relationship between an effect and a cause that produces it. The causal relationship among things has been a research hotspot; however, the complexity of causality is sometimes far beyond our imagination.

The Potential Role of Seminal Plasma in the Fertilization Outcomes
For human infertility both male and female factors may be equally important. Searching for molecular biomarkers of male infertility, neglected for decades, and the attempts to explain regulatory mechanisms of fertilization become thus extremely important. Apart from examination of the structure and function of male gametes, also the possible importance

ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive
