df_uc

Data containing one source of bias, three known confounders, and
100,000 observations. This data is obtained from <code>df_uc_source</code>
by removing the column U. The resulting data corresponds to
what a researcher would see in the real-world: information on known
confounders (C1, C2, and C3), but not for
confounder U.
As seen in <code>df_uc_source</code>, the true, unbiased exposure-outcome
effect estimate = 2.

datasets

Quantify the causal effect of a binary exposure on a binary
outcome with adjustment for multiple biases. The functions can
simultaneously adjust for any combination of uncontrolled confounding,
exposure/outcome misclassification, and selection bias.
The underlying method generalizes the concept of combining inverse
probability of selection weighting with predictive value weighting.
Simultaneous multi-bias analysis can be used to enhance the validity
and transparency of real-world evidence obtained from observational,
longitudinal studies. Based on the work from Paul Brendel, Aracelis Torres,
and Onyebuchi Arah (2023) <doi:10.1093/ije/dyad001>.
