Causal Inference on Win Ratio for Observational Data with Dependent Subjects
存在个体依赖的观察数据中胜比的因果推断
Composite endpoints are commonly used with an anticipation that clinically relevant endpoints as a whole would yield meaningful treatment benefits. The win ratio is a rank-based statistic to summarize composite endpoints, allowing prioritizing the important components of the composite endpoints. Recent development in statistical inference for the win ratio statistic has been focusing on independent subjects without any potential confounding. When analyzing composite…
