The Finite Sample Performance of Inference Methods for Propensity Score Matching and Weighting Estimators

Bodory, Hugo ; Camponovo, Lorenzo ; Huber, Martin ; Lechner, Michael

In: Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, 2020, vol. 38, no. 1, p. 183-200

This article investigates the finite sample properties of a range of inference methods for propensity score-based matching and weighting estimators frequently applied to evaluate the average treatment effect on the treated. We analyze both asymptotic approximations and bootstrap methods for computing variances and confidence intervals in our simulation designs, which are based on German...

Effects of statins to reduce all-cause mortality in heart failure patients: findings from the epical2 cohort study

Al‑Gobari, Muaamar ; Agrinier, Nelly ; Soudant, Marc ; Burnand, Bernard ; Thilly, Nathalie

In: American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs, 2019, vol. 19, no. 5, p. 497–508

Introduction: The addition of statins to standard care in heart failure (HF) patients remains controversial in clinical practice. Large-scale clinical trials failed to show mortality benefits, but uncertainty persists in real-world settings.Objective: We evaluated whether the prescription of statins at hospital discharge is associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality at up to 1 year of...
