Background: We assessed the safety and effectiveness of first and second dose BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccination, offered as part of the national COVID-19 vaccine roll-out from September 2021, in children and adolescents in En...
Pregnancy Length Measurement Error: A comparison of Last Menstrual Period and Ultrasonography with Ovulation-Based Estimation [0.03%]
末次月经与超声波孕囊或卵黄囊法测定孕龄的误差比较

Ginna L Doss et al.
Background: Last menstrual period (LMP) and ultrasound are commonly used to estimate pregnancy length. Ovulation, which precedes fertilization by ≤24 hours, should give a more accurate estimate. ...

Measurement error is ubiquitous in the data used for epidemiologic research and can lead to meaningful information bias. Analytic approaches to address measurement error and quantitative bias analyses examining the potential impact of measu...
Use of routinely collected data to classify planned mode of delivery among pregnancies with a previous cesarean delivery: a validation study [0.03%]
利用常规收集的数据对既往有剖宫产史的妊娠计划分娩方式进行分类的一项验证研究
Mary M Brown,Ya-Hui Yu,Jennifer A Hutcheon et al.
Mary M Brown et al.
Background: Counseling on the harms and benefits of a planned vaginal versus a planned repeat cesarean delivery often relies on observational studies using routinely collected (or administrative) data. However, the accura...
Comparative risks of opioid overdose in patients on oxycodone initiating selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [0.03%]
阿片类药物戒断接受选择性5-羟色胺再摄取抑制剂治疗的氧可酮患者的风险比较

Katsiaryna Bykov et al.
Background: Selective-serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are often co-prescribed with oxycodone, yet may potentiate respiratory depression. We aimed to assess the comparative effects of SSRIs on opioid overdose when ad...

Bayesian disease-mapping models are widely used in small-area epidemiology to account for spatial correlation and stabilize estimates through spatial smoothing. In contrast, difference-in-differences (DID) methods-commonly used to estimate ...
Sensitivity of cancer registry linkage with missing or incomplete social security number and implications for cancer cohorts [0.03%]
缺失或不完整的社会保障号的癌症登记链接的敏感性及其对癌症队列的影响

Lauren E McCullough et al.
Background: Linking cancer cohort participants to state cancer registries typically relies on personally identifiable information, including Social Security Numbers (SSN), which uniquely identify individuals. However, com...
