Mediation analysis offers an essential and rapidly expanding tool in environmental health
studies to investigate the contribution of environmental factors towards observed …

A major goal of health disparities research is to identify and intervene upon modifiable risk
factors that help explain the observed associations between social factors and adverse …

Background: Mediation analysis is used in epidemiology to identify pathways through which
exposures influence health. The advent of high-throughput (omics) technologies gives …

Quantifying the impact of exposure to environmental chemical mixtures is important for
identifying risk factors for diseases and developing more targeted public health …

Background: Epidemiological studies are increasingly going beyond the evaluation of health
effects of individual chemicals to consider chemical mixtures. To our knowledge, the …

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to outline the main questions in
environmental mixtures research and provide a non-technical explanation of novel or …

Background: The analysis of health effects of exposure to mixtures is a critically important
issue in human epidemiology, and increasing effort is being devoted to developing methods …

Greater understanding of the pathways through which an environmental mixture operates is
important to design effective interventions. We present new methodology to estimate natural …

Recent advances in the causal inference literature on mediation have extended traditional
approaches to direct and indirect effects to settings that allow for interactions and non …
