DOI: 10.1080/03610926.2015.1006778

Abstract: ABSTRACT The odds ratio is a measure commonly used for expressing the association between an exposure and a binary outcome. A feature of the odds ratio is that its value depends on the choice of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/10543406.2022.2105345

Abstract: ABSTRACT In meta-analysis practice, researchers frequently face studies that report the same outcome differently, such as a continuous variable (e.g., scores for rating depression) or a binary variable (e.g., counts of patients with depression dichotomized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biostatistics/kxw059

Abstract: &NA; We consider estimating causal odds ratios using an instrumental variable under a logistic structural nested mean model (LSNMM). Current methods for LSNMMs either rely heavily on possible “uncongenial” modeling assumptions or involve intricate numerical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jsr.13958

Abstract: Zolpidem is a non-benzodiazepine agent indicated for treatment of insomnia. While zolpidem crosses the placenta, little is known about its safety in pregnancy. We assessed associations between self-reported zolpidem use 1 month before pregnancy through to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13063-024-08653-1

Abstract: There are numerous approaches available to analyse data from cluster randomised trials. These include cluster-level summary methods and individual-level methods accounting for clustering, such as generalised estimating equations and generalised linear mixed models. There has… read more here.
