Overview of Propensity Score Methods
The propensity score methods are widely used to adjust confounding effects in observational studies when comparing treatment effects. The propensity score is defined as the probability of treatment assignment conditioning on some observed baseline characteristics and it provides a balanced score for the treatment conditions as conditioning on the propensity score, the treatment groups are compa...
متن کاملHead to head comparison of the propensity score and the high-dimensional propensity score matching methods.
BACKGROUND Comparative performance of the traditional propensity score (PS) and high-dimensional propensity score (hdPS) methods in the adjustment for confounding by indication remains unclear. We aimed to identify which method provided the best adjustment for confounding by indication within the context of the risk of diabetes among patients exposed to moderate versus high potency statins. M...
متن کاملA plea for balanced reporting
intraoperative hemodynamic optimization using Flotrac/ Vigileo [1]; however, the imbalance in their discussion needs redressing. Citing a meta-analysis of esophageal Doppler cardiac output (CO) validation studies that I coauthored [2], they claimed this showed ‘limited accuracy’ and that ‘absolute CO measurements were found to be imprecise’. Surprisingly, they made no mention of a similar meta-...
متن کاملStandardized computer-based organized reporting of EEG: SCORE – Second version
Standardized terminology for computer-based assessment and reporting of EEG has been previously developed in Europe. The International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology established a taskforce in 2013 to develop this further, and to reach international consensus. This work resulted in the second, revised version of SCORE (Standardized Computer-based Organized Reporting of EEG), which is pr...
متن کاملStandardized Computer-based Organized Reporting of EEG: SCORE
The electroencephalography (EEG) signal has a high complexity, and the process of extracting clinically relevant features is achieved by visual analysis of the recordings. The interobserver agreement in EEG interpretation is only moderate. This is partly due to the method of reporting the findings in free-text format. The purpose of our endeavor was to create a computer-based system for EEG ass...
