Time-dependent mediators in survival analysis: Modelling direct and indirect effects with the additive hazards model
Odd O. Aalen, Mats J. Stensrud, Vanessa Didelez +3
We discuss causal mediation analyses for survival data and propose a new approach based on the additive hazards model. The emphasis is on a dynamic point of view, that is, understa…
Estimation of separable direct and indirect effects in continuous time
Torben Martinussen, Mats Julius Stensrud
Many research questions involve time-to-event outcomes that can be prevented from occurring due to competing events. In these settings, we must be careful about the causal interpre…
Generalized interpretation and identification of separable effects in competing event settings
Mats J. Stensrud, Miguel A. Hernán, Eric J. Tchetgen Tchetgen +3
In competing event settings, a counterfactual contrast of cause-specific cumulative incidences quantifies the total causal effect of a treatment on the event of interest. However,…
Causal inference with limited resources: proportionally-representative interventions
Aaron L. Sarvet, Kerollos N. Wanis, Jessica Young +3
Investigators often evaluate treatment effects by considering settings in which all individuals are assigned a treatment of interest, assuming that an unlimited number of treatment…
Separable Effects for Causal Inference in the Presence of Competing Events
Mats J. Stensrud, Jessica G. Young, Vanessa Didelez +2
In time-to-event settings, the presence of competing events complicates the definition of causal effects. Here we propose the new separable effects to study the causal effect of a…
On null hypotheses in survival analysis
Mats Julius Stensrud, Kjetil Røysland, Pål Christie Ryalen
The conventional nonparametric tests in survival analysis, such as the log-rank test, assess the null hypothesis that the hazards are equal at all times. However, hazards are hard…
