摘要

推断因果关系是实现流行病学的目标所必需的,流行病学的目标是阐明疾病的原因。因果推理分三个步骤进行:研究效度评价、一般因果推理和个体因果推理。为了评估研究的有效性,我们提出了一个侧重于偏差和概括性的清单。对于一般的因果推理,我们建议使用希尔的9个观点。最后,个体因果关系可以根据一般因果关系和暴露的证据来推断。出于社会或法律目的,可能需要额外考虑;然而,这些额外的考虑应该基于本文中描述的因果推理所阐明的科学真理。

Causal inference in environmental epidemiology.

Inferring causality is necessary to achieve the goal of epidemiology, which is to elucidate the cause of disease. Causal inference is conducted in three steps: evaluation of validity of the study, inference of general causality, and inference of individual causality. To evaluate validity of the study, we propose a checklist that focuses on biases and generalizability. For general causal inference, we recommend utilizing Hill's 9 viewpoints. Lastly, individual causality can be inferred based on the general causality and evidence of exposure. Additional considerations may be needed for social or legal purposes; however, these additional considerations should be based on the scientific truth elucidated by the causal inference described in the present article.
