Core concepts in pharmacoepidemiology: Violations of the positivity assumption in the causal analysis of observational data: Consequences and statistical approaches
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety"
DOI: 10.1002/pds.5338
Abstract: In the causal analysis of observational data, the positivity assumption requires that all treatments of interest be observed in every patient subgroup. Violations of this assumption are indicated by nonoverlap in the data in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znae197.283
Abstract: Incidence of Post Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio-Pancreatography (ERCP) Pancreatitis (PEP) varies between 3.5% and 9.7% as per the 2014 meta-analyses. Our aim was to evaluate the incidence, perform a causal analysis and gauge the financial implications… read more here.
