整合随机试验、真实世界数据、人工智能与统计学：下一代证据综合AI 解读

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs)have been the cornerstone of clinical evidence; however, their cost, duration, and restrictive eligibility criteria limit power and external validity. Studies using real-world data (RWD), historically considered less reliable for establishing causality, are now recognized as an important source of real-world evidence (RWE). In parallel, artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are increasingly used throughout the drug…

基于反射布朗运动首达时间的复发性低血糖阈值回归与不可观测异质性AI 解读

Analyses of recurrent hypoglycemia are critical for effective treatment management in diabetic patients. Typically, within-subject dependency in such analyses is captured through subject-level frailty. Recent research has modeled recurrent hypoglycemia using the first hitting times of a reflected Brownian motion. A close examination of this approach reveals that it does not adequately account for varying frailties among individuals, which indicate notable heterogeneity. To…

基于反射布朗运动的重复事件模型及其低血糖应用AI 解读

Patients with type 2 diabetes need to closely monitor blood sugar levels as their routine diabetes self-management. Although many treatment agents aim to tightly control blood sugar, hypoglycemia often stands as an adverse event. In practice, patients can observe hypoglycemic events more easily than hyperglycemic events due to the perception of neurogenic symptoms. We propose to model each patient's observed hypoglycemic event as a lower-boundary crossing event for a…

深度神经网络引导的点估计集成学习AI 解读

In modern statistics, interests shift from pursuing the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator to reducing mean squared error (MSE) or residual squared error. Shrinkage based estimation and regression methods offer better prediction accuracy and improved interpretation. However, the characterization of such optimal statistics in terms of minimizing MSE remains open and challenging in many problems, for example estimating treatment effect in adaptive clinical trials…

预算约束下组合治疗的最优个体化规则AI 解读

The individualized treatment rule (ITR), which recommends an optimal treatment based on individual characteristics, has drawn considerable interest from many areas such as precision medicine, personalized education, and personalized marketing. Existing ITR estimation methods mainly adopt one of two or more treatments. However, a combination of multiple treatments could be more powerful in various areas. In this paper, we propose a novel Double Encoder Model (DEM) to estimate…
