  Paradoxical associations have been observed for leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and occupational physical activity (OPA) and several health-related outcomes. Typically, higher LTPA is associated with health benefits ...

• Separable and controlled direct effects for competing events: Estimation of component specific effects on sickness absence 

  Maltzahn, Niklas Nyboe; Mehlum, Ingrid Sivesind; Gran, Jon Michael (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  In many settings, it is reasonable to think of treatment as consisting of a number of components, either because this is the case in practice or because it is conceptually possible to decompose treatment into separate ...
