Abstract
This supplement describes how counterfactual theory is used to define causal effects and the conditions
in which observed data can be used to estimate counterfactual-based causal effects. Basic definitions
and language used in causal graph theory are then presented. The graphical separation rules linki…

Abstract
This chapter addresses strategies for selecting variables for adjustment in nonexperimental comparative
effectiveness research (CER), and uses causal graphs to illustrate the causal network relating treatment
to outcome. While selection approaches should be based on an understanding of the causal networ…

Abstract
The feasibility of a study often rests on whether the projected number of accrued patients is adequate
to address the scientific aims of the study. Accordingly, a rationale for the planned study size should
be provided in observational comparative effectiveness research (CER) study protocols. This chap…

Abstract
Characterization of exposure is a central issue in the analysis of observational data; however, no “one
size fits all” solution exists for exposure measurement. In this chapter, we discuss potential exposure
measurement approaches for observational comparative effectiveness research (CER). First, it is …
