Graphical presentation of confounding in directed acyclic graphs.
Suttorp MM, Siegerink B, Jager KJ, Zoccali C, Dekker FW. Suttorp MM, et al. Nephrol Dial Transplant. 2015 Sep;30(9):1418-23. doi: 10.1093/ndt/gfu325. Epub 2014 Oct 16. Nephrol Dial Transplant. 2015. PMID: 25324358 Review.
Since confounding obscures the real effect of the exposure, it is important to adequately address confounding for making valid causal inferences from observational data. Directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are visual representations of causal assumpt …

Directed acyclic graphs: a tool for causal studies in paediatrics.
Williams TC, Bach CC, Matthiesen NB, Henriksen TB, Gagliardi L. Williams TC, et al. Pediatr Res. 2018 Oct;84(4):487-493. doi: 10.1038/s41390-018-0071-3. Epub 2018 Jun 4. Pediatr Res. 2018. PMID: 29967527 Free PMC article. Review.
How does breastfeeding affect later cognitive outcomes? In this review, we present causal directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) to a paediatric audience. DAGs are a graphical tool which provide a way to visually represent and better understand the key …

Using directed acyclic graphs to guide analyses of neighbourhood health effects: an introduction.
Fleischer NL, Diez Roux AV. Fleischer NL, et al. J Epidemiol Community Health. 2008 Sep;62(9):842-6. doi: 10.1136/jech.2007.067371. J Epidemiol Community Health. 2008. PMID: 18701738 Review.
BACKGROUND: Directed acyclic graphs, or DAGs, are a useful graphical tool in epidemiologic research that can help identify appropriate analytical strategies in addition to potential unintended consequences of commonly used methods such as conditioning …

Using Directed Acyclic Graphs to detect limitations of traditional regression in longitudinal studies.
Moodie EE, Stephens DA. Moodie EE, et al. Int J Public Health. 2010 Dec;55(6):701-3. doi: 10.1007/s00038-010-0184-x. Epub 2010 Sep 14. Int J Public Health. 2010. PMID: 20838848
OBJECTIVES: We review confounding and mediation in a longitudinal setting and introduce causal graphs to explain the bias that arises from conventional analyses. CONCLUSIONS: When both time-varying confounding and mediation are present in the data, tra …

Combining directed acyclic graphs and the change-in-estimate procedure as a novel approach to adjustment-variable selection in epidemiology.

Identifiability of causal effects in test-negative design studies.
Shrier I, Stovitz SD, Textor J. Shrier I, et al. Int J Epidemiol. 2023 Dec 25;52(6):1968-1974. doi: 10.1093/ije/dyad102. Int J Epidemiol. 2023. PMID: 37451683
Causal directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) are often used to select variables in a regression model to identify causal effects. Outcome-based sampling studies, such as the 'test-negative design' used to assess vaccine effectiveness, present unique challenge …

Structure and Control of Healthy Worker Effects in Studies of Pregnancy Outcomes.
Johnson CY, Rocheleau CM, Grajewski B, Howards PP. Johnson CY, et al. Am J Epidemiol. 2019 Mar 1;188(3):562-569. doi: 10.1093/aje/kwy277. Am J Epidemiol. 2019. PMID: 30576409
Three pregnancy-specific healthy worker effects have also been described, but the structure of these effects has not yet been investigated when occupational exposure, and not employment status, is the exposure of interest. We used directed acyclic graphs to e …
