1/ That "immortal time" is so frequent in survival analyses for #causalinference is fascinating. Because "immortal time" doesn't exist in the data, *we* create it when misanalyzing data. Our paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3949… summarizes why immortal time arises & how to prevent it.

The @TARGETGuideline team needs your help. If you work on #causalinference from observational data, please get involved in piloting the reporting guidelines for #TargetTrial emulation. Diverse viewpoints will make the guidelines more useful for everyone in #RWE. More info👇
It was great to welcome the @TARGETGuideline team to @HarvardChanSPH to reach consensus on items for a #ReportingGuideline for target trial emulation. We look forward to the guideline being piloted and released in the coming year Sign up to contribute via redcap.link/target-piloting

Compared with no invitation for routine PSA testing, a single invitation for a PSA screening test reduced prostate cancer mortality at a median follow-up of 15 years, but the absolute mortality benefit was small. ja.ma/43J43q3 #EAU24
