Workng group and nvesgaors: Epdemology/Bosascs Workng Group Chongzh D cd@fhcrc.org Wendy Lesenrng wlesenr@fhcrc.org Kayla Sraon ksraon@fhcrc.org Toana Kawashma kawash@fhcrc.org Kr Ness kr.ness@sjude.org Yuaka Yasu yyasu@ualbera.ca Greg Armsrong greg.armsrong@sjude.org Ann Merens ann.merens@choa.org Aaron McDonald aaron.mcdonald@sjude.org Les Robson les.robson@sjude.org Background and raonale The Chldhood Cancer Survvor Sudy (CCSS) quered parcpans wh a baselne and several follow-up (we focus on Follow-up 2000, 2003 and 2007 here) quesonnares. As n mos longudnal cohor sudes, here s non-parcpaon a each follow-up quesonnare. Ths may be problemac as dfferenal non-parcpaon, by eher an exposure of neres or a poenal confounder of he assocaon beween he exposure and he oucome of neres, has he poenal o nroduce bas no he esmae of he assocaon beween he exposure and he oucome. Tha s, s unlkely ha he responden cohor members a a gven quesonnare, hose who remaned n he cohor and who compleed he quesonnare, are a represenave sample of he orgnal populaon of neres. Mos analyses n he CCSS have smply omed ndvduals who dd no complee a parcular quesonnare, cng dfferenal non-parcpaon as a poenal lmaon of he sudy. Invesgaors have ndcaed ha dfferenal non-parcpaon may generae based resuls, bu have no quanfed hs poenal bas. Because he cohor connues o age, and because parcpaon declnes gradually over me, s mporan o quanfy hs poenal bas so ha we have a conssen mechansm o examne bas when conducng analyses and wrng manuscrps. Ths concep proposes an nvesgaon o examne poenal bas due o non-parcpaon n he CCSS.
2 4. Goal We wan o undersand whch characerscs of survvors are assocaed wh nonparcpaon and o wha degree non-parcpaon a follow-up quesonnares are nfluencng analyses (.e. assocaons beween rsk facors and oucomes). If here s an mpac, we wan o adjus for hs ype of selecon bas n fuure analyss, f possble. 5. Analyss framework We plan o conduc analyses usng nverse probably censored weghng (IPCW) mehodology. Ths mehod can be used for mos of he analyses oulned below. When he oucome of neres s from a follow-up quesonnare and he exposures (rsk facors) are from baselne (e.g., dabees a FU 2003 vs. BMI a baselne), we may also explore he augmened IPCW (AIPCW) mehod. When he daa are avalable, he laer mehodology can provde asympocally more effcen esmaes han he former. Analyses for hree follow-ups wll be conduced separaely, each compared o he baselne populaon. In he followng, we use FU2000 as an example, and mehods for FU2003 and FU2007 are he same. IPCW: Inversely wegh regresson analyses by he probably of parcpaon (deermned based on a logsc regresson model for probably of parcpaon gven pas hsory covaraes and oucomes), effecvely nflaes he mpac of underrepresened subjecs, so we can observe assocaons ha would have been observed f all subjecs had sayed n he sudy, assumng he models are correcly specfed. Key references for hs mehodology are: Robns JM, Ronzky A, Zhao LP. Analyss of semparamerc regresson models for repeaed oucomes n he presence of mssng daa. Journal of he Amercan Sascal Assocaon 1995; 90: Robns JM. Margnal srucural models versus srucural nesed models as ools for causal nference. In Sascal Models n Epdemology: The Envronmen and Clncal Trals, Halloran ME, Berry D (eds). IMA Volume 116, Sprnger-Verlag: New York, 1999; Robns JM, Hernan MA, Brumback B. Margnal srucural models and causal nference n epdemology. Epdemology 2000; 11: Mahemacally,he models are represened as follows: Le Y be he oucome a FU1, X be covaraes (FU1 and/or baselne) for he oucome model, Z be covaraes (baselne) for he mssng mechansm model, R be he mssng ndcaor (R =1 when Y s observed and R =0 f Y s mssng).
3 Then he probably of mssngness a FU1 can be modeled usng logsc regresson exp( γ 0 + Z γ ) π = P( R = 1 Z ) =, 1+ exp( γ + Z γ ) where he oucome s assumed o follow a generalzed lnear model 1 µ = E ( Y X ) = g ( β0 + X 0 β ), g s a lnk funcon, for nsance deny for connuous oucome and log for bnary oucome. The IPCW esmaon s equvalen o solvng he followng esmang equaons n = 1 R π µ V β 1 ( Y µ ) = 0,where V = var(y ), whch uses nformaon from complee cases only, and gnores nformaon from ncomplee cases. The sandard errors for regresson coeffcens need o be correced by he sandwch varance esmaors. In IPCW analyss, assumng he logsc model for R (.e., facors nfluence log odds of R lnearly) could be quesoned as may or may no approxmae he underlyng mssngness mechansm. Therefore, we wll conduc some sensvy analyss wh respec o he logsc model for mssngness. We wll also consder he possbly of usng nonparamerc models f needed. Augmened IPCW (AIPCW): To mprove effcency, he augmened IPCW mehod (see 4-5) adds an augmenaon erm o he IPCW esmang equaon. Ths mehod nroduces he augmenaon erm for non-parcpans, n conras o IPCW, whch gnores observaons from non-parcpans. However, hs mehod requres ha covaraes for oucome model X are avalable for boh respondens and non-respondens. Thus, Augmened IPCW s applcable n CCSS only f rsk facors are observed a baselne. The mahemacal formula for AIPCW esmang equaon s gven by n n R µ 1 R V ( Y µ ) + (1 ) h( X ) = 0 π β π = 1 = 1 where h s a funcon of X. The augmened erm ncorporaes nformaon from ncomplee cases, and hus poenally mproves effcency compared o IPCW esmaes. The gan n effcency depends on he choce of he funcon h. In pracce, one can choose some smple funconal forms for h (see 4-5).
4 In addon o possble effcency gans, anoher advanage of AIPCW s ha s doubly robus, n he sense ha yelds conssen resuls f eher he mssngness mechansm or he oucome regresson model s correcly specfed. Algorhm for mplemenaon: 1. Calculae probably weghs: Among subjecs who parcpaed a baselne, and who were elgble (.e alve and elgble) for he relevan FU quesonnare, f a logsc regresson model o predc parcpaon a ha quesonnare, usng covaraes from baselne ha are key predcors of parcpaon (Z defne hese as he se we ve currenly denfed n our parcpaon models) and hose ha are any baselne versons of he curren oucome (D) and rsk facor of neres (E) (f he exac quesons are no avalable, we ry o use any smlar nformaon avalable). Resuls of hs modelng process wll be summarzed o descrbe facors assocaed wh parcpaon a each quesonnare. Calculae predced probables from hs model call hese P. 2. Calculae sablzed versons of probably weghs: A sablzng calculaon nvolves fng he same predcon model as above, bu only wh E as he covarae. Calculae predced probables from hs model call hese S. Then calculae sablzed weghs = SW = S/P. 3. F weghed logsc regresson usng 1/P as weghs: Among subjecs who responded o FU quesonnare of neres, f a logsc regresson model wh D as he oucome, and wh E as he covarae of neres and any oher approprae adjusmen covaraes for ha oucome (would probably do boh unvarae w/ E as well as mulvarae). A samplng wegh of 1/P should be ncorporaed n hs analyss (double check wheher SAS auomacally akes he nverse of P when usng weghs, or wheher you need o gve 1/P. Use robus varances. 4. F weghed logsc regresson usng sablzed weghs: F he same model as above wh sablzed weghs, SW = S/P, nsead of 1/P. Correc sandard errors by sandwch esmaors. 5. F an unweghed verson of he logsc regresson for comparson. Use he same model(s) as above n (3), bu whou any samplng weghs. Repor ORs for E for he hree models, 1) weghed w/ P, 2) weghed wh SW and 3) unweghed.
