Social contact studies are used in infectious disease epidemiology to infer a contact matrix , having the mean number of contacts between individuals of different age groups as elements. However, does not capture the (often large) variation...
Regression-based Proximal Causal Inference for Right-censored Time-to-event Data [0.03%]
基于回归的近似因果推理在右删失的时间至事件数据中的应用

Simulation studies are used to evaluate and compare the properties of statistical methods in controlled experimental settings. In most cases, performing a simulation study requires knowledge of the true value of the parameter, or estimand, ...
Use of health administrative data to identify migraine in individuals with a recognized pregnancy: A validation study in Ontario, Canada [0.03%]
利用卫生行政数据识别具有公认妊娠的个体中的偏头痛:加拿大安大略省的一项验证研究

Background: For infectious diseases, characterizing symptom duration is of clinical and public health importance. Symptom duration may be assessed by surveying infected individuals and querying symptom status at the time ...
Generalizability Analyses with a Partially Nested Trial Design: The Necrotizing Enterocolitis Surgery Trial [0.03%]
一项关于坏死性小肠结肠炎手术试验的部分嵌套试验设计的概括性分析
Sarah E Robertson,Matthew A Rysavy,Martin L Blakely et al.
Sarah E Robertson et al.
We discuss generalizability analyses under a partially nested trial design, where part of the trial is nested within a cohort of trial-eligible individuals, while the rest of the trial is not nested. This design arises, for example, when on...

Causal mediation analysis examines the mechanism by which exposure affects outcome via mediators. In contrast to single-mediator scenarios, the presence of multiple ordered mediators introduces complex pathways and corresponding path-specif...
Early detection of dengue outbreaks: transmission model analysis of a dengue outbreak in a remote setting in Ecuador [0.03%]
厄瓜多尔一偏远地区登革热疫情早期检测:以传播模型分析一场登革热疫情
Hannah Van Wyk,Andrew F Brouwer,Gwenyth O Lee et al.
Hannah Van Wyk et al.
Background: Pathogen transmission of an outbreak generally begins well before it is identified by a surveillance system, particularly for infectious diseases in which a high proportion of cases are subclinical, as is the ...
