Methodological issues in electronic healthcare database studies of drug cancer associations : identification of cancer, and drivers of discrepant results

2016-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Background: There have been a number of conflicting findings from epidemiological studies investigating the association of drug use and cancer risk. Methodological issues such as biased study designs and differences in case identification have been postulated as potential reasons for differing results. However, the impact of these methodological variants is unclear. Aims: The principal aims of this thesis were to...
