recommendations! Published in 2025 at "American Journal of Human Biology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.70149

Abstract: Human biologists seek to understand how cultural, environmental, and biological forces shape observed patterns of human variation. Yet contemporary insights and approaches to observational causal inference remain underutilized in the field. We outline a structured… read more here.

Spatiotemporal Causal Inference With Mechanistic Ecological Models: Evaluating Targeted Culling on Chronic Wasting Disease Dynamics in Cervids

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Environmetrics"

DOI: 10.1002/env.2901

Abstract: Spatiotemporal causal inference methods are needed to detect the effect of interventions on indirectly measured epidemiological outcomes that go beyond studying spatiotemporal correlations. Chronic wasting disease (CWD) causes neurological degeneration and eventual death to white‐tailed… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety"

DOI: 10.1002/pds.4736

Abstract: One response to the opioid crisis in the United States has been the development of opioid analgesics with properties intended to reduce non‐oral use. Previous evaluations of abuse in the community have relied on population… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.10095

Abstract: Streaming data routinely generated by social networks, mobile or web applications, e‐commerce, and electronic health records present new opportunities to monitor the impact of an intervention on an outcome via causal inference methods. However, most… read more here.

Causal Inference Over a Subpopulation: The Effect of Malaria Vaccine in Women During Pregnancy

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.10228

Abstract: Preventing malaria during pregnancy is of critical importance, yet there are no approved malaria vaccines for pregnant women due to lack of efficacy results within this population. Conducting a randomized trial in pregnant women throughout… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Statistics in medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.8048

Abstract: The augmented inverse weighting method is one of the most popular methods for estimating the mean of the response in causal inference and missing data problems. An important component of this method is the propensity… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9548

Abstract: When drawing causal inferences about the effects of multiple treatments on clustered survival outcomes using observational data, we need to address implications of the multilevel data structure, multiple treatments, censoring, and unmeasured confounding for causal… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9653

Abstract: There is growing interest in developing causal inference methods for multi‐valued treatments with a focus on pairwise average treatment effects. Here we focus on a clinically important, yet less‐studied estimand: causal drug‐drug interactions (DDIs), which… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2023 at "Statistics in Medicine"

DOI: 10.1002/sim.9706

Abstract: Long‐term register data offer unique opportunities to explore causal effects of treatments on time‐to‐event outcomes, in well‐characterized populations with minimum loss of follow‐up. However, the structure of the data may pose methodological challenges. Motivated by… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery"

DOI: 10.1002/widm.1449

Abstract: Causality is a complex concept, which roots its developments across several fields, such as statistics, economics, epidemiology, computer science, and philosophy. In recent years, the study of causal relationships has become a crucial part of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00038-020-01334-1

Abstract: In a previous Hints and Kinks, we discussed the role of causal inference in tasks of health services research (HSR) using examples from health system interventions (Moser et al. 2020). In the present Hints and… read more here.
