Bias assessment and correction for Levin’s population attributable fraction in the presence of confounding

2023-08-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>In 1953, Morton Levin introduced a simple approach to estimating population attributable fractions (PAF) depending only on risk factor prevalence and relative risk. This formula and its extensions are still in widespread use today, particularly to estimate PAF in populations where individual data is unavailable. Unfortunately, Levin’s approach is known to be asymptotically biased for th...
