Reanalyses of case-control studies examining the temporal association between sudden infant death syndrome and vaccinationRonny Kuhnert
Robert Koch Institute, Division for Health of Children and Adolescents, Prevention Concepts, Seestr 10, 13353 Berlin, Germany
Vaccine 30:2349-56. 2012..The SCCS method for terminal events, in which all time-independent confounders are eliminated, is an alternative to case-control analysis when it comes to the temporal association between exposed time periods and SIDS after vaccination...
A comparison of three different models for estimating relative risk in meta-analysis of clinical trials under unobserved heterogeneityRonny Kuhnert
Division for International Health and Biometry, Institute for Social Medicine, Epidemiology, and Health Economy, Joint Centre for Health Sciences and Humanities, Charite Medical School Berlin, Fabeckstr 60 62, 14195 Berlin, Germany
Stat Med 26:2277-96. 2007..In the case of strong baseline heterogeneity, the profile likelihood method shows superior behaviour when compared with the multi-level model...
A modified self-controlled case series method to examine association between multidose vaccinations and deathRonny Kuhnert
Robert Koch Institute, Division for Health of Children and Adolescents, Prevention Concepts, Postfach 650261, 13353 Berlin, Germany
Stat Med 30:666-77. 2011..Reanalysis of data from cases of the German case-control study on sudden infant death (GeSID) resulted in slightly higher point estimates using the SCCS methods than the odds ratio obtained by the case-control analysis...
Vaccination coverage against measles in German-born and foreign-born children and identification of unvaccinated subgroups in GermanyChristina Poethko-Müller
Robert Koch Institut, Germany

A bagging-based correction for the mixture model estimator of population sizeRonny Kuhnert
Division for Health of Children and Adolescents, Prevention Concepts, Robert Koch Institute, Seestrasse 10, Berlin, Germany
Biom J 50:993-1005. 2008..Using the median of this series, highly influential size estimates are avoided. In limited simulation studies it is shown that the procedure leads to estimates with remarkable small bias...
Equivalence of truncated count mixture distributions and mixtures of truncated count distributionsDankmar Böhning
School of Applied Statistics, School of Biological Sciences, University of Reading, Reading RG6 6FN, UK
Biometrics 62:1207-15. 2006..Applications of these ideas are given, particularly in the case of the truncated Poisson family...
