Review and comparison of treatment effect estimators using propensity and prognostic scores.

The international journal of biostatistics
In finding effects of a binary treatment, practitioners use mostly either propensity score matching (PSM) or inverse probability weighting (IPW). However, many new treatment effect estimators are available now using propensity score and "prognostic s...

Long-term outcomes of robot-assisted radical thymectomy for large thymomas: A propensity matched analysis.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term results of robot-assisted (RATS) thymectomy in the treatment of large thymomas, defined as larger than 5 cm.

Surgical and functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma in adolescents and young adults: a propensity score matching study.

International journal of clinical oncology
BACKGROUND: Cancer development in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) has elicited recent interest. We investigated the surgical and functional outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in AYAs.

Comparison of robot-assisted sleeve gastrectomy outcomes in multiple staple line treatment modalities from 2015 to 2019: a 5-year propensity score-adjusted MBSAQIP® analysis.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted sleeve gastrectomy (RSG) is an increasingly common approach to sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Staple line reinforcement (SLR) is well-discussed in laparoscopic SG literature, but not RSG- likely due to the absence of dedicated ro...

Efficacy of the opened legs position for protecting against postoperative rhabdomyolysis after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: A propensity score-matched analysis of perioperative outcomes.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study was to clarify the relationships of intraoperative surgical position with the incidence of postoperative rhabdomyolysis and with postoperative renal function to safely perform robot-assisted radical prostatect...

Application of machine learning based methods in exposure-response analysis.

Journal of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
Robust estimation of exposure response analysis relies on correct specification of the model structure with traditional parametric approach. However, the assumptions of the handcrafted model may not always hold or verifiable. Here, we conducted a sim...

Comparison of surgical outcomes and split renal function between laparoscopic and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: a propensity score-matched analysis.

International urology and nephrology
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to compare perioperative outcomes and total and split renal function between laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN). Predictive risk factors of preservation of ope...

Feasibility of interaortocaval clamping for renal artery during robot-assisted right partial nephrectomy: A propensity score-matching analysis.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
AIM: To evaluate the impact of the interaortocaval clamping technique for the right renal artery on perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).

Robot-assisted versus video-assisted thoraco-laparoscopic McKeown's esophagectomy for esophageal cancer: a propensity score-matched analysis of minimally invasive approaches.

Journal of robotic surgery
Minimally invasive esophagectomy for esophageal cancer decreases overall complication rate and leads to faster postoperative recovery. Robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy is becoming more common. Its three-dimensional view and wristed ins...
