Guns, suicide, and homicide: individual-level versus population-level studies.
Population-Level Studies In a systematic review published in this issue, Anglemyer and colleagues (1) found that access to firearms is associated with the risk for completed suicide (odds ratio, 3.2) and being the victim of homicide (odds ratio, 1.9). These results are consistent with those of previous literature reviews (2, 3). The lack of recent research on these issues is telling: The curren...

conditional methods of adjustment are often used to quantify the effect of the exposure on the outcome. as a result, the stratums-specific risk ratio estimates are reported in the presence of interaction between exposure and confounder(s) in the literature, even if the target of the intervention on the exposure is the total population and the interaction itsel...

متن کاملIndividual-Level Randomness in a Nonatomic Population
This paper provides a construction of an uncountable family of i.i.d. random vectors, indexed by the points of a nonatomic measure space, such that (a) samples are measurable functions from the index space, and (b) an exact analogue of the Glivenko-Cantelli theorem holds with respect to the measure on that space. That is, a sample possesses a.s. the same distribution as that of the random vecto...
