Estimating Risk Ratios and Risk Differences Using Regression

Published 4 August 2020 Generalized linear models (GLMs) are often used with binary outcomes to estimate odds ratios. Though not as widely appreciated, GLMs can also be used to quantify risk differences, risk ratios, and their appropriate standard errors (1). Here, we illustrate how GLMs can be used to quantify these latter effect measures, and we demonstrate how to obtain valid standard errors. R

The Epidemiologic Toolbox: Identifying, Honing, and Using the Right Tools for the Job

Published 5 August 2020 There has been much debate about the relative emphasis of the field of epidemiology on causal inference. We believe this debate does short shrift to the breadth of the field. Epidemiologists answer myriad questions that are not causal and hypothesize about and investigate causal relationships without estimating causal effects. Descriptive studies face significant and often

Helpful and challenging aspects of breastfeeding in public for women living in Australia, Ireland and Sweden: a cross-sectional study

Published 10 August 2020 Breastfeeding in public continues to be contentious with qualitative evidence confirming that women face many challenges. It is therefore important to gain understanding of not only the challenges but also what women perceive is helpful to breastfeed in public. Read more at https://doi.org/10.1186/s13006-020-00281-0.

A Cautionary Note on Extended Kaplan–Meier Curves for Time-varying Covariates

Published 11 August 2020 We argue that the causal implications of this independence assumptions are highly unrealistic, and that a causal interpretation of the extended Kaplan–Meier curve is therefore typically unwarranted.

Glossary for public health surveillance in the age of data science

Published 14 August 2020 With the rapid development of data science, encompassing big data and artificial intelligence, and with the exponential growth of accessible and highly heterogeneous health-related data, from healthcare providers to user-generated online content, the field of surveillance and health monitoring is changing rapidly.

Prediction meets causal inference: the role of treatment in clinical prediction models

Published 17 August 2020 In this paper we study approaches for dealing with treatment when developing a clinical prediction model. Analogous to the estimand framework recently proposed by the European Medicines Agency for clinical trials, we propose a ‘predictimand’ framework of different questions that may be of interest when predicting risk in relation to treatment started after baseline.

Adjacent Primary Care May Reduce Less Urgent Pediatric Emergency Department Visits

Published 18 August 2020 By enabling adjacent management of less urgent pediatric patients at adequate lower levels of medical care, implementation of a HPCU outside office hours may contribute to fewer and more appropriate pediatric ED visits.

The illusion of universality: The use of Nordic population registers in studies of migration, employment and health

Published 18 August 2020 The Nordic registers are an extraordinary resource for public health researchers, but continuous quality control and assessment of validity and completeness will be crucial to maintain relevance in a transitioning society.
