Peter J. Pronovost,Dale M. Needham,Sean M. Berenholtz,David J. Sinopoli,Haitao Chu,Sara E. Cosgrove,Bryan Sexton,Robert C. Hyzy,Robert J. Welsh,Gary Roth,Joseph Bander,John P. Kepros,Christine A. Goeschel +12 more
TL;DR: An evidence-based intervention resulted in a large and sustained reduction (up to 66%) in rates of catheter-related bloodstream infection that was maintained throughout the 18-month study period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Illustrating bias due to conditioning on a collider
Stephen R. Cole,Robert W. Platt,Enrique F. Schisterman,Haitao Chu,Daniel Westreich,David B. Richardson,Charles Poole +6 more
TL;DR: This work provides two hypothetical examples to convey concepts underlying bias due to conditioning on a collider, or collider-stratification, bias, which is a common effect of a genotype and an environmental factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting provides complete revascularization with reduced myocardial injury, transfusion requirements, and length of stay: A prospective randomized comparison of two hundred unselected patients undergoing off-pump versus conventional coronary artery bypass grafting
John D. Puskas,Willis H. Williams,Peggy G. Duke,James R. Staples,Kathryn E. Glas,J. Jeffrey Marshall,M. Leimbach,Huber Pr,S. Garas,Bonnie H Sammons,Susan A. McCall,Rebecca Petersen,Dianne E. Bailey,Haitao Chu,Elizabeth M. Mahoney,William S. Weintraub,Robert A. Guyton +16 more
TL;DR: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting achieved similar completeness of revascularization, similar in-hospital and 30-day outcomes, shorter length of stay, reduced transfusion requirement, and less myocardial injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantifying publication bias in meta-analysis
Lifeng Lin,Haitao Chu +1 more
TL;DR: A new measure is introduced, the skewness of the standardized deviates, to quantify publication bias, which describes the asymmetry of the collected studies' distribution and is illustrated using simulations and three case studies.
