- Reposted by Ghazaleh DashtiRecent study in #Australia shows that 47% of adolescents reported #vaping at any frequency at age 20. In contrast to the belief that vaping is short-lived, almost half of these adolescents were vaping across consecutive years & more than one-third reported #escalating use. 🔗 Full text below

- Reposted by Ghazaleh Dashti1/ NEW R PACKAGE! For estimating the impact of potential interventions on multiple mediators in countering exposure effects (led by @cttc101.bsky.social) - Paper👉 tinyurl.com/ye26jsps - Package👉 tinyurl.com/yuh4kens Thread shows published examples of how the method can be used! #EpiSky #CausalSky
- 📢 New Commentary: We discuss how analytic choices impact interpretation of studies on socioeconomic health inequities. We review 1) descriptive analogues of causal estimands (à la Young et al) with competing events; 2) timescale choice; and 3) covariate adjustment. 👉 academic.oup.com/aje/advance-...
