倾向性评分加权,主要介绍两种加权方法:逆概率加权(inverse probability weighting, IPW)和重叠加权(overlap weighting)。倾向性评分加权的方法有很多,常见的一些加权方法比较如下:
![R语言倾向性评分:加权](https://zyicu.cn/wordpress/wp-content/themes/justnews/themer/assets/images/lazy.png)
其中ATE
就是大家比较常见的IPW
方法,还有一种常见的inverse probability of treatment weighting, IPTW,是这里的ATT
。前者是针对所有研究对象,后者是针对病例组。
data(lindner, package = "twang")
lindner[,c(3,4,6,7,8,10)] <- lapply(lindner[,c(3,4,6,7,8,10)],factor)
str(lindner)
## 'data.frame': 996 obs. of 11 variables:
## $ lifepres : num 0 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 11.6 ...

其中abcix
是处理因素变量,sixMonthSurvive
是二分类的结局变量,cardbill
是连续型的结局变量,其余变量是协变量。
首先可以通过tableone
包看一下加权前的数据情况:
library(tableone)
covs <- colnames(lindner)[c(1,4:10)]
tab <- CreateTableOne(vars = covs,
strata = "abcix",
data = lindner
)
print(tab,showAllLevels = T,smd = T)
## Stratified by abcix
## level 0 1 p test SMD
## n 298 698
## lifepres (mean (SD)) 11.02 (2.54) 11.42 (1.45) 0.002 0.194
## stent (%) 0 124 (41.6) 206 (29.5) <0.001 0.255
## 1 174 (58.4) 492 (70.5)

## female (%) 0 183 (61.4) 467 (66.9) 0.111 0.115
## 1 115 (38.6) 231 (33.1)
## diabetic (%) 0 218 (73.2) 555 (79.5) 0.034 0.150
## 1 80 (26.8) 143 (20.5)
## acutemi (%) 0 280 (94.0) 573 (82.1) <0.001 0.372
## 1 18 ( 6.0) 125 (17.9)

## ves1proc (%) 0 1 ( 0.3) 3 ( 0.4) <0.001 0.446
## 1 243 (81.5) 437 (62.6)
## 2 47 (15.8) 205 (29.4)
## 3 6 ( 2.0) 39 ( 5.6)
## 4 1 ( 0.3) 13 ( 1.9)
## 5 0 ( 0.0) 1 ( 0.1)
如果只是看一下协变量是否在不同组间均衡,可以通过之前介绍过的cobalt
实现:
library(cobalt)
## cobalt (Version 4.4.0, Build Date: 2022-08-13)
# 选择只有协变量的数据框
covariates <- subset(lindner, select = c(1,4:10))
bal.tab(covariates,treat = lindner$abcix, s.d.denom = "pooled",
m.threshold = 0.1, un = TRUE,
v.threshold = 2
)

IPTW
倾向性评分只是一个概率(倾向干预组的概率),计算概率的算法是在是太多了,选择自己喜欢的就好,我这里就用最简单的逻辑回归,之前的推文中也演示过随机森林等其他估计PS的方法。
psfit <- glm(abcix ~ stent + height + female + diabetic + acutemi + ejecfrac + ves1proc,
data = lindner, family = binomial())
ps <- psfit$fitted.values
逆概率加权以全部研究对象(ATE)为目标人群,通过加权使每一组研究对象的协变量分布与全部研究对象相似。
该种加权方法下,研究对象的权重为该对象所在组的概率的倒数。
- 干预组:1/ps
- 对照组:1/(1-ps)
下面根据计算出的PS计算每一个样本的权重:
iptw <- ifelse(lindner$abcix == 1, 1/ps, 1/(1-ps))
lindner$iptw <- iptw
加权后可以再次看看数据是否已经均衡:
bal.tab(covariates,treat = lindner$abcix, s.d.denom = "pooled",
weights = lindner$iptw,
m.threshold = 0.1, un = TRUE,
v.threshold = 2
)

可以看到除了lifepres
之外,其他全都均衡了,效果还是挺不错的。加权后,干预组和对照组的样本量已经变了哦!
如果想要画出加权后数据的基线资料表,可以借助survey
包。
library(survey)

## The following object is masked from 'package:graphics':

# 获取加权后的数据
df <- svydesign(ids = ~1, data = lindner, weights = ~ iptw)
# 使用tableone中的函数创建加权后的三线表
tab_IPTW=svyCreateTableOne(vars=covs, strata="abcix",data=df ,test=T)
print(tab_IPTW,showAllLevels=TRUE,smd=TRUE)
## Stratified by abcix

## 4 14.4 ( 1.4) 14.0 ( 1.4)
## 5 0.0 ( 0.0) 1.0 ( 0.1)
加权之后,就可以做各种分析了,比如回归分析等,分析时把权重因素也考虑进去即可。
这里演示逻辑回归,根据因变量的类型,可选择不同的回归方法。
f <- glm(sixMonthSurvive~abcix+stent+height+female+diabetic+acutemi+ejecfrac+ves1proc,
data = lindner, family = binomial(),
weights = iptw # 把权重加进去
)

重叠加权
重叠加权的目标人群是两组协变量相似的人,即PS值分布重叠的人,其估计的效应为重叠人群平均处理效应(ATO)。
- 干预组:1-ps
- 对照组:ps
重叠加权的优缺点可以看这篇文章:https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/OgsRAuMFD9kuiT1Dsze62g
使用PSweight
包演示重叠加权,这个包不仅可以用于二分类,还可以用于多分类。
还是使用lindner
这个数据集。
## 数据准备
rm(list = ls())
data(lindner, package = "twang")
# 构建估计PS的formula
formula.ps <- abcix ~ stent + height + female + diabetic + acutemi + ejecfrac + ves1proc
进行重叠加权:
library(PSweight)
PSweight <- PSweight(ps.formula = formula.ps, data = lindner,
weight = "overlap", # 重叠加权
yname = "cardbill", # 因变量
family = "gaussian",
ps.method = "glm",
out.method = "glm"
)
#返回结果,效应估计及其标准误、置信区间、P值
