    Open AccessAdam Trickey, Margaret May et al.ARTICLEThe Lancet HIV2017

    BACKGROUND: Health care for people living with HIV has improved substantially in the past two decades.

We examined changes in 3 year survival and life expectancy of patients starting combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) between 1996 and 2013. METHODS: We analysed data from 18 Europe…

  • Impact on life expectancy of HIV-1 positive individuals of CD4+ cell count and viral load response to antiretroviral therapy

    Open AccessMargaret May, MARGARET T MAY et al.ARTICLEAIDS2014

  • Associations of mortality with own height using son's height as an instrumental variable

    Open AccessDavid Carslake, Abigail Fraser et al.ARTICLEEconomics & Human Biology2012

    Height is associated with mortality from many diseases, but it remains unclear whether the association is causal or due to confounding by social factors, genetic pleiotropy,(1) or existing ill-health. The authors investigated whether the association of height with mortality is causal by using a son's height as an instrumental variable (IV) for parents' height among the parents of a cohort of 1,036,963 Swedish men born between 1951 and 1980 who ha…

  • Associations of mortality rates with height using son's height as an instrumental variable

    David Carslake, Per Tynelius et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2011

    Objectives Height has been negatively associated with mortality from circulatory disease, but positively associated with mortality from most forms of cancer. These results are vulnerable to confounding, including the confounding effect of early stages of disease causing shrinkage and later death. To avoid these problems, we used the height of subjects' sons as an instrument for subjects' own height. Design A record linkage cohort study of over 2 …
