LongitudinalEvalue - Sensitivity Analysis for Unmeasured Confounding in Longitudinal
Studies
Evaluates the sensitivity of a given association to
unmeasured confounding. The package consists of three
functions. The first starts a 'shiny' app which assesses how
strong a time-invariant confounder needs to be associated with
the exposure and outcome to explain away a proposed causal
association. The second and third functions simulate a
time-dependent confounder over time either using a fit from the
qmle() function from the 'yuima' package or directly using the
observed effect estimate.
