Assessing the effects of drug exposure on the occurrence of health events is a real challenge. As individuals' drug exposures are likely to vary over time, they carry associated risks that depend on the dose, duration, and timing of treatment. Thus, different study designs and statistical analysis methods are used to estimate the risk associated with drug exposure. However, few studies have systematically evaluated and compared the respective performances of cohort and nested case-control (NCC) designs to estimate the effect of fixed or time-varying drug exposure. In this thesis work, we used simulations to examine and compare the performance of estimates from NCC versus whole cohort analyses to assess associations between a fixed or time-v...
