Causal Inference using Multivariate Generalized Linear Mixed-Effects Models with Longitudinal Data [PDF]
Dynamic prediction of causal effects under different treatment regimes conditional on an individual's characteristics and longitudinal history is an essential problem in precision medicine. This is challenging in practice because outcomes and treatment assignment mechanisms are unknown in observational studies, an individual's treatment efficacy is a ...

AbstractSystemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is an autoimmune‐triggered chronic fibrosing disease that affects the skin and many other organs. Its pathophysiology is complex and involves an early endothelial damage, an inflammatory infiltrate and a resulting fibrotic reaction.
