A comparison of confounder selection and adjustment methods for estimating causal effects using large healthcare databases Open
Purpose Confounding adjustment is required to estimate the effect of an exposure on an outcome in observational studies. However, variable selection and unmeasured confounding are particularly challenging when analyzing large healthcare da…

Effectiveness and safety among direct oral anticoagulants in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: A multi‐database cohort study with meta‐analysis Open
Aims There are conflicting signals in the literature about comparative safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Methods We conducted multicentre matched cohort studies with …

Effect of Real-Time Physician Oversight of Prehospital STEMI Diagnosis on ECG-Inappropriate and False Positive Catheterization Laboratory Activation Open
Real-time physician oversight might be associated with fewer IAs, but also appears to have a deleterious effect on FMC-to-device performance. Identifying predictors of IA could improve overall performance by selecting ECGs that merit physi…

A Discrete Event Simulation Model to Assess the Economic Value of a Hypothetical Pharmacogenomics Test for Statin-Induced Myopathy in Patients Initiating a Statin in Secondary Cardiovascular Prevention Open
We found that a strategy favoring patients staying on statin therapy is cost effective even if patients maintained on statin are at risk of rhabdomyolysis. Our results are explained by the fact that statins are highly effective in reducing…
