The purpose of this study is to understand the effects of parathyroid hormone levels on risks of skeletal fractures among children with chronic kidney disease. Investigators will utilize the existing row-level PEDSnet dataset previously created to examine the effects of phosphate binder use on rates of skeletal fractures in children with CKD. This dataset contains […]

Pragmatic trials and comparative effectiveness research often require causal inference methods to establish cause-effect relationships between interventions and outcomes. With treatments that can change over time, it is crucial to account for time-dependent confounders to accurately estimate treatment effects. Statistical methods to do so have not been developed for recurrent time-to-event outcomes, although such outcomes […]
