The bayesian model to measure the direct effect of enrollment
|
|
|
|
|
is specified as a hierarchal logistic regression.
|
|
|
|
|
The goal is to take each snapshot and predict
|
|
|
|
|
The actual specification of the model to measure
|
|
|
|
|
the direct effect of enrollment is:
|
|
|
|
|
\begin{align}
|
|
|
|
|
y_i \sim \text{Bernoulli}(p_{i,n}) \\
|
|
|
|
|
p_{i,n} = \text{logit}(x_{i,n} \vec \beta(d_n))
|
|
|
|
|
p_{i,n} = \text{logit}(x_{i,n} \vec \beta(d_i))
|
|
|
|
|
\end{align}
|
|
|
|
|
Where beta is indexed by
|
|
|
|
|
$d \in \{1,2,\dots,21,22\}$
|
|
|
|
|
for each general ICD-10 category.

The betas are distributed
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

\beta(d) \sim \text{Normal}(\mu,\sigma I)

The arcsinh transform is used because it is similar to a log transform but
|
|
|
|
|
differentiably handles counts of zero since
|
|
|
|
|
$\text{arcsinh}(0) = \ln (0 + \sqrt{0^2 + 1}) =0$.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that in this is a heirarchal model, each IDC-10 disease category
|
|
|
|
|
gets it's own set of parameters, and that is why the $\beta$s are parameterized
|
|
|
|
|
by $d_i$.
