Examining medical products' benefits and risks in different population subsets is often necessary for informing public health decisions. In observational cohort studies, safety analyses by pre-specified subgroup can be powered, are informative about subsets' if the study designs or adequately control confounding. However, few guidelines exist on how to simultaneously confounding conduct analyses. this simulation study, we evaluated performance, terms of bias, efficiency coverage, six...

The Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) identified a statistical signal for an increased risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in days 1-42 after 2018-2019 high-dose influenza vaccine (IIV3-HD) administration. We evaluated the using Medicare.We conducted early- and end-of-season claims-based self-controlled interval analyses among Medicare beneficiaries ages ≥65 years, 8-21 postvaccination as windows 43-84 control window.
