Matched Versus Unmatched Analysis of Matched Case-Control Studies

Published 22 September 2021 Photo: Pixabay / Ronny Overhate Although the need for addressing matching in the analysis of matched case-control studies is well established, debate remains as to the most appropriate analytical method when matching on at least 1 continuous factor Read the paper at https://academic.oup.com/aje/article/190/9/1859/6162924

Parametric-Regression–Based Causal Mediation Analysis of Binary Outcomes and Binary Mediators: Moving Beyond the Rareness or Commonness of the Outcome

Published 23 September 2021 Photo: Pixabay / Gerd Altmann In the causal mediation framework, several parametric-regression–based approaches have been introduced in the last decade for estimating natural direct and indirect effects. For a binary outcome, a number of proposed estimators use a logistic model and rely on specific assumptions or approximations that may be delicate or not easy to verify

Methodical considerations on adjusting for Charlson Comorbidity Index in epidemiological studies

Published 24 September 2021 Photo: Pixabay / Arek Socha Confounding by comorbidities is of concern in many epidemiological studies. To take this into account a common strategy is to calculate each participant’s Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and use this for adjustment in regression analyses. Various CCI adjustment strategies are possible, and it is unclear, which is preferable. Read the paper a

The use of negative control outcomes in Mendelian randomization to detect potential population stratification

Published 24 September 2021 A key assumption of Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis is that there is no association between the genetic variants used as instruments and the outcome other than through the exposure of interest. One way in which this assumption can be violated is through population stratification, which can introduce confounding of the relationship between the genetic variants and

Rounding up the usual suspects: confirmation bias in epidemiological research

Published 25 September 2021 Photo: Pixabay / Alexander Lesnitsky Investigators performing epidemiological research frequently form hypotheses based on data availability. One might ask how it could be otherwise. After all, what is the point of forming hypotheses if they can’t be tested? Read the paper at https://academic.oup.com/ije/article/50/4/1053/6259481
