Measurement Error Case Series Models With Application to Infection-Cardiovascular Risk in Older Patients on Dialysis
考虑测量误差的病例序列模型：老年透析患者感染与心血管风险
Infection and cardiovascular disease are leading causes of hospitalization and death in older patients on dialysis. Our recent work found an increase in the relative incidence of cardiovascular outcomes during the ~ 30 days after infection-related hospitalizations using the case series model, which adjusts for measured and unmeasured baseline confounders. However, a major challenge in modeling/assessing the infection-cardiovascular risk hypothesis is that the exact time of…
